Yes, I caved in early May, got "scheduled" email in late May, and got my Badlands in early Aug. Just like the Jeep TJ that I used to have, I love the soft top on the Bronco. Very quiet.
Not really. I was very happy to give a good deal to a fellow B6G member/friend. I went with 305/70LT17 Toyo which are nearly the same as the SAS "35s". I'll still be adding a small level lift ... probably 1" front and 0.5" rear.
Yes ... TPMS sensors and all ... just like the wheels came from factory. I immediately added larger tires on black KMC wheels and so the factory wheels were removed right away. $1200 seemed to be the going rate back in the summer. Perhaps you can get a little more now since more people have...
Sold my Badlands set to fellow B6G member / acquaintance for $1000, but I believe the going rate is around $1200. Mine only had ~10 miles as I took them off right after bringing my Bronco home :)
Thanks :) I realize some people don't, but I've always liked the look of the SAS flares. Got them before my truck showed up, along with the wheels/tires.
What would stock 2.7L be considered on the loudness scale? A 2 or 3?
I want a little more sound than stock but not too much. I have 2 moderately loud mustangs that my wife won't even ride in, but she's at least willing to ride in the Bronco thus far :)
I’m pretty sure you’re supposed to air down the tires to where you would be for off-roading … e.g. 12-14 psi for example. That gives better RTI score and is more representative of intended (off-road) use.
I thought about a 2 door initially in July 2020, but after having a 2 door TJ wrangler for 10+ years, I spent the next 10+ years envying every nice lifted 4 door wrangler I saw. It’s personal opinion. The 2 doors are nice but they’re missing half their doors, and the 4 doors look much better IMHO.
