I have the 2.7 and have zero complaints. In fact the opposite, the torque is effortless to get this thing flying. I am a lazy driver, enjoying the breeze and just cruising along. However last night for really the first time, I put it into sport mode and stood on it. I was put into my seat and...
Oddly, the parking garage is the sole reason why I’ve kept mine, using it as a measuring stick to not scrape the top of the car in some of these low garages in my area, especially those with plumbing pipes exposed on the ceiling. I know where on the antenna the roof line is. Has saved me a...
My previous car to the Bronco was the E350 (2014). Agree, totally different animal, in all of the right ways. So nice to not fear potholes anymore, and being able to see around the car in front of you!
Be realistic with your expectations of the vehicle. Just because it's not a Wrangler, doesn't mean that it doesn't share some of the same characteristics, such as noise. Be realistic of what to expect, and if you're good with that, then you'll likely love the snot out of the thing. But if you're...
Similar for me, had a 94' GMC Jimmy 4-door back in my 20's while living at the beach, metallic deep green. When I saw a green 4-door bronco OBX, I immediately went full nostalgia mode and had to have it.
Sad, in the fact that I don't have a single monthly bill today, that was a cheap as my...
100% Agree! I can't tell you how many times I had to fix an AMG rim (sport package option on otherwise non-AMG vehicle) because of a minor pothole at errand-running speeds in my last car, and once you bend one, it's never quite 100% ever again. AMG = "All Money Gone"... So nice now to not give a...
Thanks! I actually returned the setting back to active that I had tried to disable it with. Ford's made it so easy to turn it off with the button, my fingers now have muscle memory whenever I get in the car to drive it. I always check the camera button to make sure I"m not about to run over any...
Beyond the features, modifications, looks, "real life Tonka toy", etc. that we all know and love about them, my number 1 reason.....
It's an experience!! It's got a soul, it's unique, it is a fun and nice experience to own one of these cars. In a sea of "speed" or "aerodynamics" or "cache'" or...
You should have rented your laptop to them for $400! :crackup:
I read somewhere around here that to maintain the original warranty, the tune had to be installed by a Ford dealership? Is that not correct?
Roughly 7 inches of snow and two inches of sleet. Saw a few stuck pickups with street tires despite the 4x4. Bronco acted like nothing to it. One of the few times I've used the 4x4 (slippery mode) and could definitely smell the newness of it burning off. I'm in 4x2 99% of the time. Only place...
As a southerner who had live in Chicago 09-11, including during the infamous blizzard of 11 that stranded cars and buses on lakeshore drive - I now spell it ChiTcago. No offense to the fans on here - neat city with perhaps best skyline in the country. But that weather (and potholes) suck...
I don't know what Ford is thinking entirely. I will say....they need a "Woodsman" version. They keep pushing out these models that are meant for far more than 95% of the buyers are ever going to use it for. Emphasizing the dune racer, the mountain billy goat, etc... Which, no complaints there...
I've noticed mine doing this too toward the end of the summer last year. Mine lives in the garage, and stored during the winter months. No loose glue or anything like that on mine though. I like the idea of trying to secure the velcro section before setting in the corner edges into their lock...
My previous Mercedes (2014 E350), you could disable it as well via the secondary battery, but that also took out the brake hold (which is essential in DC traffic). But, thankfully MB put that button front and center on the center stack as well. It's like these manufacturers know we all hate it...
This is starting to turn into a Taco Bell menu, who are masters at rearranging beans, rice, tomatoes, cheese, tortilla wraps to convince you that it's an all-new burrito for an extra 20%.
I'm 100% in the same boat as you on this. Even though I don't live in a small town area (DC), I do live in a small town suburb about 30 miles away. I purposely sought out the nearest Ford dealership to me which is also the smallest and oldest by far. I didn't get a "deal" on mine, I paid MSRP...
Auto Start/Stop, as far as I'm aware, is a feature the manufactures are "motivated" to include in all cars via certain fee reductions from the EPA. The measuring stick being MPG's. The higher the MPG's, the lower the fee. I'm not sure what that fee is, or what agency exactly covers it, but in...
No, you're not being scammed. You'll get an email from Ford saying congratulations on the order soon that will reference that order number. You won't get the VIN until production actually starts on your car (issuing the VIN is one of the first steps of actual production).
Your dealership was...
