Fun morning at Holly Oaks ORV with @Mattwings and the Michigan Bronco Club. Highlights: Stopping to pull out an ATV stuck up to its fenders in mud Climbing the “slick rock” of Potato Salad @ Magna Peak Two loops around Endurance Trail to use Crawl Control (first time) on the steeper declines...

So long as it goes to the people actually doing the work.

Headed thattaway! Hopefully someone in the group can be patient with this base non-sas driver, and tour me around the Endurance Trail and other milder parts of the park before ramping up the difficulty level!

What happens when inflation intersects with unchecked corporate greed?

Parking deck in downtown Detroit… I kid. I kid. Here’s one from Blacktail Plateau Drive in Yellowstone…

I’m not pretending. I own both vehicles so I don’t have to. I know the limits of the base Bronco on 33s pretty well. It’s honestly really impressive what the base will do if you are smart and pick the right lines. It’s fun for me to work my way through stuff without all the “easy buttons.” I...

“I truly hope my Bronco lasts decades because it’s such a fun and capable truck - even in the Base trim.” “So now, we have a ‘23 4Runner at about 23k miles and a ‘23 Bronco at about 27k miles…Will be interesting to compare the reliability of our two 2023 vehicles.”

Olympic National Park. The westernmost destination on our road trip from Detroit (and back). Full trip details and photos here.

Great Northwestern Road Trip August 11-28, 2024 Drive time: 116.05 hours MPG: 17.5 Distance: 5,294.5 miles Key points: Marquette/Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Theodore Roosevelt National Park, Glacier National Park, North Cascades National Park, Seattle, Olympic National Park, Mt. Rainier...

Yeah I’m sure Ford will freeze/reduce their prices for MY26. Now we get to see what’s inflation, and what’s price gouging…

If you ordered during the first model year, Ford honored that year’s pricing regardless of what year your Bronco was built/delivered. There were some caveats related to order changes (switching trims, options, etc). As far as I know, that has ended.

Desert sand on a base. Was my hope to have that option in MY ‘23. Oh well! Glad others have the option now and looking forward to seeing some roll around. Happy for my price protection and $32,000ish for a Base with auto, mod bumper, aux switches. I realize things change, but I’m telling you...

I like them! I’m sure the ride is a little firmer than tires that aren’t an E-load range. But I counteract that by running the pressure a little lower (at 32 psi). Wear seems to be good at a little over 20k miles. I rotate them religiously at 5k miles, so I’m sure that helps. Haven’t gotten...

Yes. Certainly the Bronco doesn’t borrow from…say…the Wrangler.

Ah. Gotcha. Well, in that case…well-played! 🤣

??? It was a Transit Connect. Minivan. Not the Sprinter-style larger van.

🤔…what’s a “chick vehicle?” Where I’m from, women are allowed to drive whatever they want, bud.

Agreed. I think being a cultist of any automaker…hell, any corporate “brand”…is bad news. It’s our first Toyota. Could be our last…no idea. For me, the appeal of the 5th Gen 4R is that it hasn’t been redesigned during the era where cars somehow became iPad docks on wheels. The antiquated...
