  1. Another Mid-Year Price Increase as of 07/25/23

    I got my ā€˜23 Bronco for around $32k with an incredibly confusing mix of price protection and rebates. Optioned a few things but it’s mostly just a base two-door non-Sasquatch. I love this thing. I really do. But, I can’t imagine paying more than $40,000 for it. Probably mostly because I didn’t...
  2. The 2023 Shadow Black Base Experience

    On the topic of rust (wheels, see above), I’ll throw this out there…. Anybody noticing this rust staining around the Bronco bolts on the top side of the HD Modular bumper? I’m thinking it’s the bolt head or threads rusting and staining the bumper, but not sure. This is one of the things the...
  3. The 2023 Shadow Black Base Experience

    No. They didn’t calibrate my speedometer. I don’t think I’ve seen (on this forum or elsewhere) an instance where a dealership calibrated the speedometer. Some 6G owners have done so themselves with Forscan, but I’m not looking to get into all that if I can avoid it. The drivetrain (auto trans)...
  4. The 2023 Shadow Black Base Experience

    Yes, the wheels are powder coated BUT there is an issue - apparently the media used in the coating process can be tricky to apply into the seams of these steel wheels. As a result, I’ve noticed some mild surface rust happening in the wheel seams on each of the wheels. Here’s a photo showing...
  5. The 2023 Shadow Black Base Experience

    Man, this šŸ‘† is exactly what I’ve said to myself about 10 times. I’ve read the instructions, watched the YouTube videos, dropped umpteen f-bombs…you name it…nothing seems to work. Maybe if everyone on here lights a prayer candle for me…?
  6. The 2023 Shadow Black Base Experience

    @BeerForMyHorses - I like how this thread has basically just become a public DM for the two of us. šŸ˜‚ Appreciate your engagement and humoring my long-windedness.
  7. The 2023 Shadow Black Base Experience

    At nearly 6k and they’re no louder than the day I bought them. No balance issues or vibration. I run them at 35-36psi and theyre pretty firm. I have to imagine a set of SL or C load tires would be much smoother, especially on washboard gravel roads and slow speed over concrete seams and...

    Yep, the zip tie solution is totally fine if you use the hitch only occasionally like I do.
  9. The 2023 Shadow Black Base Experience

    Yeah, we still have a booster seat but I'm thankful I don't have to reach into the back seat and deal with strapping in the kiddos. Did that in our '97 Wrangler for three years and I think I have a permanent goose egg on my head from bumping the roll bar. Thanks for catching the hitch! Forgot...
  10. Is the 2 Door Bronco Family Friendly?

    Family of four here. Easily packed the essentials in our 2 door for a week ā€œup north,ā€ with non-essentials on our cargo trailer. Details in my thread here. Also some info on how our base non-Sas did on the Silver Lake Sand Dunes.
  11. The 2023 Shadow Black Base Experience

    Over the Fourth of July week, we headed to the Lake Michigan shoreline. We were staying at a lake house just south of Manistee and frequented the beach at the bottom of the dune there daily, but we also made the time to explore up and down the coast from Silver Lake to Glen Arbor. Here are some...
  12. The 2023 Shadow Black Base Experience

    Spent a recent weekend at Holly Oaks ORV Park in Holly, MI. Ended up being a Michigan Bronco Club event the same day so we had a guided tour of the moderate difficulty trails throughout the park. We had a blast and our base non-Sas Bronco (should we name this thing?) really surprised me. We...
  13. Non saggy Paracord handles?

    +1 for the non-paracord Bartact handles. I bought these ones and couldn’t be happier. Here’s a post from my thread with a couple pics and some more info: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/the-2023-shadow-black-base-experience.63687/post-1946928

    Michigan Bronco Club

    Headed out with my sons for our first trip to Holly Oaks on Saturday. This will be the shakedown run for me (as a novice with more experience driving snowmobiles/SxS), AND our 2023 Bronco Base non-sas! We’re going to need a flag since the one we ordered won’t be here until next week. But other...
  15. ADV vs OEM Hardtop Comparison

    I can see the similarities between the ADV and the angle of the rear window on the original. And, I wasn’t aware ADV asked the community to select a style during pre-production, which I applaud. Maybe it is just the 4-door proportions that make it look gross. Seems like the side windows in the...
  16. ADV vs OEM Hardtop Comparison

    That’s fine. You can put me down as a -1 for the 2 door version too. My money will be going to whichever company designs an aftermarket soft or hard top without the angled rear fastback window. Anybody else think those look dumb? Feels like so many of the aftermarket accessories should just...
  17. Aftermarket grab handles

    I’d love to see some made out of wood.
  18. Anyone else feel this way? Grab handle woes

    Bartact Colored Grab Handles (in brown). Look nice, feel good in-hand, and can be tucked between halo bar and top panels if they annoy you while driving.
  19. The 2023 Shadow Black Base Experience

    Installed the Bartact Color Grab Handles (in brown) and they look/feel nice. Hang down a comfortable distance to easily access when entering the Bronco, and feel substantial in-hand. Some have said these strap-style handles hang into the front seat peripheral vision to the point of annoyance...
  20. Replacement horn - part number # ?

    Appreciate the tip. Will definitely check it out with the dealer when I’m back there for an oil change. Everybody was fine in the crash. Ford Focus blew a red light and I hit their front passenger quarter panel. Really thankful it wasn’t in the driver’s door, as the height of the bronco bumper...
