I thought the biggest problem was neither the number of doors nor drawers in the Bronco, but the outrageous number of integrated chips and circuit boards to be relied on.

Use your experience about tire pressures to run.
Remember, if you split an innertube after taking a bitchin jump, then your pressure was too low. If you split a dried-up old sidewall after pumping up by really leaning on the pump handle, then your pressure was too high.
Oh, back to Broncos...
To avoid feeling stupid while sometimes having to look around each of my wheels 2 or 3 times for the valve stem, I've added some, "right here, ya dumb s#!t" indicators using nail polish.
I also split more kindling to add to the stacks of firewood I have in the garage.
Ready for fire ring...
Nice!
I remember when they used to launch full-sized gliders there with tow cables powered by an old car or truck engine. They had to yell at us dumb kids to get out of the way for take-offs and landings.
There were no crowds on the beach below for on "emergency" landing I saw once, then...
Tow Strap, Bow Saw, Bottle Opener with MOLLE attachments? Luhh-Kee!
(I like what you did!)
I went to some local forest roads the other day to test my advanced food storage and service systems. I think I need to work on them a little more.
'got the same thing.
I had a spare nut that happened to fit when I installed this bracket, and just measured it to be M6 x1.0 per Mitutoyo (caliper) -- if this helps anyone.
This is where I quickly clamp my MORRflate.
My milage keeps going down too, about 5mpg to 7mpg lower than the first 3,000 miles. No matter how careful I drive or road conditions. :curse:
OTA updates or something?
I have the OEM rack, and took the first cross bar off -- no MPG change.
(I have the cross bar off because I am working on...
Quick DIY soft shackle, 60 second job.
'had some 20-year-old 1/2 inch sailing line (the good braided stuff), and tied this shackle.
I'll count on it to have:
30 lb Working Load
35 lb Ultimate Breaking
:inspect:
Probably stronger, but the line is over 20 years old .... what the heck, something...
Yeah, I did my usual half-ass job of hosing the main area under the flares, but didn't get it too well, like to the narrow places of those open cylindrical areas by the turn tabs.
I now have another 1/4 pound of dirt from 3 states out on the driveway, :facepalm: .
Removed fender flares for the first time; over a year and 9,500 miles.
'had a handful of gravel and sand rattling around up in the flares from the past year of easiesh trails from Bishop (CA) to Baker (WA).
Cleaned them and the interfacing fender surfaces well, used 303 on the flares and clips...
installed my DIY antenna delete kit. 2025 badlands has a male stainless threaded stud.
I've turned the AM/FM radio on once to check that it worked, 'never listen to it.
I got tired of having the antenna being beaten around by shrubs and on the highway, especially in headwinds.
This can...
Finally got around to installing the Curt hitch receiver I've had in a box for almost a year.
2025 Badlands Sasquatch, 2-door.
I performed one and a half installations! -- the new bolts would not fit per the instructions with the nuts facing rearward. I had to remove them and turn them to face...
My 5-year-old grandson didn't believe this was real when I showed him this photo and told him I had a hard time getting back into my Bronco after a hike.
Several weeks late in reporting this:
2,400 mile trip from north of Seattle down into California, through Santa Rosa then Sacramento, and into the Bishop area.
Had to see what the Buttermilk road was all about -- after watching several YouTube videos of the trail, I recognized much of it...
Same here.
2025 2.3, 9,500 miles.
Added coolant twice to be midway between min and max and the level went back to just below minimum. Slowly, however β longer than two weeks to drop back down.
No smoke, no odors of coolant, no visible leaks or residue. The oil shows nothing odd.
I do not...
