    I'm setting my timer for October 20th, 11:59 PM Pacific time. Any later is officially LATE October :mad:
  2. Ford email update -- reservations, ordering, mid-October Build & Price

    I came here to say this, but knew in my heart it had already been said.
  3. Main reason you purchasing the Bronco? (POLL)

    Because it is the new Defender ?‍♂️
  4. BREAKING

    Yeah, it threw the back of my rig sideways by a couple feet, or that's what it felt like. Thank goodness not on the steering axle. Those are the tires the rig came with, probably abused by PO and dry rotted from storage. I've never tolerated an old tire on any vehicle of mine since then. I now...
  5. BREAKING

    Catastrophic tire failure at 50+ MPH on a desert road and I didn't flip my 100" wheelbase Disco. Sounded like a double barreled shotgun blast. I was lucky that day! PS, can you spot my DIY MaxTrax in this photo? ;)
  6. Flag Holders for Bronco

    You mean like this?
  7. Black Diamond 33s on stock steel wheels

    It's okay, now that Mansquatch is officially a thing, you're probably safe from having too many imitators, myself included :ROFLMAO: ... Now thinking of running 315/70R17 on my Sasquatch wheels for summer, and studded 255/85R17s on OEM BD Steelies if I ever need a winter set (aka if the 315s...
  8. Would appreciate help with tire selection

    On the Disco in my profile pic, I ran 235/85R16 BFG KM2s and they were phenomenal tires. Sold them 2 years later for over 80% of their original price and downgraded before selling the rig. They were fantastic all throughout southeast Idaho, and the vehicle was more than competent on deep snow...
  9. Lightning Blue Announced Exclusively For Bronco First Edition!

    Plot twist: you can ONLY get FE in lightning blue :ROFLMAO:
  10. Lightning Rims on the Bronco

    You'll have the wrong number of lugs.
  11. Pics of 2.3L engine & underhood compartment in 2021 Bronco

    3.0 Vulcan, I believe. Was underwhelming in the torque department and got about the same fuel economy as the 4.0, but was a real quiet and smooth motor. But you are right, ancient history. Sorry, other than anecdotally (I see them racking up plenty of miles in F150 form), I don't have a...
  12. Pics of 2.3L engine & underhood compartment in 2021 Bronco

    I was a big fan of the 4.0 OHV in the Ranger, but it felt a little overworked in an Explorer. The 4.0 SOHC introduced reliability issues when paired with an automatic transmission, don't remember the details but it was something dumb like if there was a slow coolant loss, the vehicle could...

  14. Pics of 2.3L engine & underhood compartment in 2021 Bronco

    Good, but less consistently so. Cologne V6 was a good one but some had head cracking/warping or head gasket issues. Sort that out and the engine will go 400,000 miles. Ford's I6 was a fantastic engine as well (I know, not a V. I wish we could go back!). Ford's been putting tons of V6 (NA and...
  15. Pics of 2.3L engine & underhood compartment in 2021 Bronco

    I drive a lot in DC traffic. They are so darn peaceful to drive, and they make excellent commuters. It's just not quite mature enough tech to warrant the price IMO, but I do want one once I can make it check out for my own use case. Regardless, I don't see a day where I don't have at least one...
  16. Pics of 2.3L engine & underhood compartment in 2021 Bronco

    I've been test driving electric cars for the last few years, and we are really close to the affordability point and technological point where it makes sense to buy one on its own merits. For me, we are not quite there yet, but close. I will say this, to me, an electric car still counts as a...
  17. Pics of 2.3L engine & underhood compartment in 2021 Bronco

    The manual is the reason I'm getting the I4. I wouldn't even be buying the vehicle without the manual ?‍♂️
