been down a few steepish hills in 4L, but oddly don’t remember lurching.
I was probably mashing the brakes and the tranny never left 2nd. Ha! Am still used to my TRD manual and learning this Bronco automatic.
I will do more “research” and edit my post above with the results. Gimme a few...
I'm feeling left out; no recalls on mine...yet...🤞.
Am worried, however, that I am due for one! 'keep reading about all of the ones here, and other makes/models seem to constantly be having.
wait, I need to add my news to that thread about the 10-speed auto lurching fwd at stops. summary: It...
I understand your fond memories! Great mt. goat, that Jeep XJ!
'87 Pioneer, 2-door stock with street tires took me through all kinds of stuff, from Borrego to Antelope Valley to Moab. No magazine articles to share though. :sadface:
And all during the pre-rubber duck days when a wave was a...
Today, I saw one place the overflow of ducks are ending up: a Dodge sedan (of some sort with the ram on the front grill) had a double row of them on the dash.
Dodge Ram is going duckish!
Fan-"F"-ing-Tastic!
Thank you for keeping this part of the Bronco envelope pushed, for people like me!
This photo of yours cracked me up; the gate, for me, might as well have been closed.
I'm not quite ready to damage my shiny princess. :unsure:
Lotsa cool geology on that trip too.
From someone used to older automobiles: I hadn't tried the +/- buttons on my AT handle while in D until recently -- tried them on some hilly roads, and it almost makes the Bronco seem like a new model year Badlands with another gizmo. 🛸
Learning what this Bronco has to offer a little more...
3 items for a list of bad-things-study is a pretty short list from which to make any overall judgement. I guess your decision is boiling down to these three things.
I spent almost a year lurking here, and researching other sources, before deciding to wait until after 2024 and jump in for the...
ya mean the little sasquatch figure down in the lower area of the Badlands stuff on the "badge"?
I'm going to paint mine bright green so it stands out. not really.
So jealous. Sounds like what I used to do in my Jeep Cherokee looooonggg ago, and it usually included Tahoe and Valley of Fire as well!!
thank you so much for the re-inspiration!
What was this thread about?
I've got to remind the dealer to not wash mine when I bring it in for an early oil change next week. (scratchy brushes on their hose-wands).
I've only got two and a-half coats of wax on mine 🤪, Carnauba all over with ceramic hybrid on the lower door and quarter...
I hate it because every time I forget to turn it off and it activates at an intersection, I wonder "what the hell is going wrong with my engine??!!!" :whew:
I'll leave it activated whenever I travel into Canada.
'just noticed mine too, due to OP's post.
2025 Badlands Sas, but the flag looks larger. Multiple vendors?
Now I have to find that old thread that revealed/inquired about uneven gaps between the rear bumper and the body panels -- I've just noticed a larger gap difference on my FRONT bumper...
The only way I knew was from a notice in a fancy advertisement type "magazine" Snohomish mails out. :unsure: How many more events or meet-ups are we missing?
It was not advertised much, but more crowded and attended than I had expected!
Maybe I'll see ya there next year.
This is a weird thread.... so why did I read the whole freaking thing??! :crackup:
either read these things, or pay some bills. oh.
I believe most of the people who drive like angry Jeeps would drive the same in any car.
Go for the Sasquatch and have some room to grow without modifying!
It may be another year before I use even most of the capabilities of the Sasquatch on my Badlands, but every time I drive it, even on boring forest roads, I am glad I have them and not wishing, "dang, I should've".
The few...
Great job clearing out your garage for the Bronco! I understand the effort you put into that project.
I was in similar situation. Had to donate, find new storage places, or toss stuff to fit my Badlands Sas 2-door into my garage, replacing a 2003 Tacoma TRD.
The only photo I have, is...
Not much this weekend -- stopped by a local 4x4 show, with some vendors attending (Snohomish, WA if anyone recognizes the town).
This was the only personal Bronco on "display" (the one other Bronco on display was a 2022 fancy build using several company sponsors).
Good old Bronco in the photo...
