The only time i have experianced a situation in which the long wheelbase was superior was when towing long or Heavy loads. Its the longer wheelbases that tend to make the riffles in the trail that the little guys are out of tune with so they go right over them with ease. ....chuckle...even the...

Ford does that crap all the time. There are dozens of so called off road capable vehicles out there but most carry the groceries and are WAY WAY to long for true off road capability. They come out with good ideas all the time like the small van etc. and then when others copy their ideas they...

2dr's alway better unless your a mom in need of a station wagon

chuckle....I was involved in that fiasco with CARB. Our research indicated that emissions would be decreased by 1/3 but at the expense of 10% less gas mileage. So, you burn 10% more fuel but co emissions are 1/3 less a good thing....but not the loss in fuel economy! Not rocket science here if...

You answered your own question. Your fuel is slightly denser when cold. But the real limiting factor is the oxidizer, O2, which concentrates when cold so more O2 per volume goes into the engine oxidation<burning> becomes more efficient for better fuel use so more HP. Chuckle...why is pure...

chuckle...i know the feeling but I got tired of visions of $ flying away so I slowed down to the speed limit 65 -70, set cc, and enjoyed seeing the savings at the pump. I routinely make a trip of 450 miles each way in my F250 and i hate to stop I just go. At 65 when i get to the ranch I have...

not at 80mpg

In winter the air is denser which means more air into your engine resulting in better gas mileage. Summer thin air fuel consumption is more per gallon. gas in close to $5 per gallon in Northern Ca. so I tend to drive for fuel economy

thanks for the info I've come to love that feature it takes a lot of the load off the vehicles brakes....and i hate the addon systems been using them for decades.

you mean the Bronco does not have available a factory built in brake controler like my truck does?

No less wear because it holds dirt in suspension better than conventional oil and the molecules don't fragment like conventional oil producing sludge. They lubricate much better in cold weather because they are liquid when conventional oil is like glue. I've used full synthetic in all engines...

thats because there are at least 50 or more autos out there per stick shift vehicle, maybe 200 per stick, sticks are not common anymore..

Never could figure why anyone seriously into off roading would opt for a long wheelbase like 4drs all have which make it harder to go over obstacles. The old army jeep and CJ5 are the ultimate full size vehicle for getting in and out of tight places and I'm hoping the new 2dr Bronco will match...

Thanks for the input. Does the camera allow one to see what each wheel may be about to go over in the next few inches. Often climbing trails or decending i have to get out examine exactly where my wheels will go then get back in move a few inches and then repeat over and over in order to...

whats wrong with a front camera? When i got in a badlands at the dealer the first thing that jumped out at me was the poor visability in front. I'm used to Ford trucks in which the front fenders kind of lower just a tad which greatly improves the drivers ability to see potential hazards. That...

A shorter wheelbase would do even better. Can't wait to try out a 2dr version

Now thats a nice trim package whats the order number, would look good in a 2dr badlands

Why not put them on the roof? The wider doors of the 2dr make getting in and out easier. Wasn't sure about that since i have yet to see a 2dr in the flesh. thanks for the info

I sat in a bronco at my local dealer and immediately noticed the lack of front visability. The long square front makes it hard to see what may be in front of the grill which for me would require the addition of a camera so i can see what i am about to run over. To be honest i did not like the...

4dr is useless, to hard to manuver in trees rocks or dirt. 4dr is better suited to city life and hauling kids. 2dr is the only game in town as far as I'm concerned
