Very nice. Welcome to the family brother.

I just found out via another long time Ford guy that the 2.7 got re-done in '18, which explains the issues that my '16 F-150 isn't having. Maybe 2023Bronco can reckon that. My BB is 2.3

Maybe I've been blessed with mine. I didn't want to sell my '97, but with the F-150 doing everything it could, just more efficiently, it made sense. The only problem I've had was the 10% ethanol 87 octane causing discombobulations over time (I thought the droughts had jacked up the road...

Do you know what Ford changed on the 2.7 between '16 and now? My '16 F-150 has the 2.7 and it out towed a '97 F-350 with the 351 (5.8) every time. It's been an excellent engine (168,000 miles and counting).

I'm just a nerd that still thinks the Bronco Raptor variant should be called Warthog to differentiate it from the F-series and Ranger Raptors and because it looks more like the badass tank killers the Air Force is gradually replacing. With the base model returning for '25, I'd expect the...

It's been interesting hearing people's responses despite them making me feel like a dinosaur (I had to rebuild the charging system, replace the vacuum operated fuel pump, and other things on the 1975 LTD (the predacesor to the Crown Vic) while in high school, I've had a 78 1/2 F-150 and at least...

DpAtlanta just elevated things to a whole new level. I'm an old Ford guy, someone that can compete please stand up.

Do you miss that Mustang? Seems like most Mustang owners prefer the Bronco, but that's a limited sample and you drove a classic.

We still have about a thousand miles to go with this post, but thank you to everyone, first time Ford owners and dedicated Ford people alike for making this interesting. Let's hear more stories and much obliged for sharing.

That was directed towards MuffinTop, but I reckon plenty of us are receptive to that since it affects us all.

What hit your windshield that caused it to crack and any other details you can give are more than welcome by open eyes and ears.

Nah, it's just a simple question seeing how many decided to give Ford a chance that cut their teeth driving on other brands. No boasting or bragging by anyone considering we all came to the same place from different roads ...it's how we got here that makes things interesting. It's about the...

Mine is dead set on 19.5, but in all fairness it's a daily driver with BF Goodrich KO2s. I'll let y'all know when I've figured out the magical coast in neutral (mine is a manual) so that I finally reach 19.6 mpg.

I love hearing from the first time Ford owners. As a former owner of a truly badass 5th Gen GT Mustang, the Broncos are still more fun to drive (manuals) than even the epic works of art and machines that are 5th Gen Mustangs

The only ones that count are the ones you paid for. My first car was a 1975 Ford LTD in 1990 (pre-internet days for the guy that called me an Internet mechanic for changing my oil before 10,000 miles) and only 2 non-Fords since 1990 (I'm too lazy to push trucks these days). The Bronco was my 2nd...

Manuals?

Definitely decide how you plan to use your Bronco day to day for the first few years. You can always add to your rig and increase it's capability, especially if you aren't planning on using it to go up the Himalayas the first year you own it or across the swamps running parallel to I-10 in...

This is a completely random question just to mix things up a bit. How many of you are first time Ford owners due to your Bronco?

Is your dealer a sadist that likes torturing people? That's just cruel to do someone that way.

I believe Bilal23 is right. Us 24's have until the end of '25 for ours, so the 23's have until the end of this year.
