I'm not one of them, trust me. I'm not losing any sleep over something as silly as a digital dashboard revision. Just talkin' cars...

I can definitely see the need for a traditional tachometer in the manual, 100%! That, is certainly a drawback of the old dash that hopefully the new version will fix for the manual crowd! I'm sure you can "feel" it naturally, but would nice to have an easy and familiar display to glance at...

No argument from me, I agree with you too! People always want what they don’t have, and it’s impossible to satisfy everyone at the same time. I’m not trying to knock the new dash, it is very very nice, and certainly adds more of a “wow” factor to the experience. I don’t know. Just something...

Let me rephrase, to ME, it takes away the feel of a retro throwback vibe. It also takes away some of the uniqueness of the Bronco when compared to the Explorer, because it’s obviously a shared parts bin decision. I think the “tech” in the current version is perfect, all easily usable and...

Checked out the 2025 this week, an OBX on the lot near my office. Probably not the popular opinion, but I’m sorry, the digital dash is a mistake. It kills some of the stand alone uniqueness charm of the Bronco throwback fun. Made me feel like “hey, I’m not just a Bronco, but I’m a noisier...

I haven’t a clue about all of this, this is my first Ford ever, only second American car ever, and I’m 51 years old and this Bronco is my 20th vehicle in my life. When it comes to the details in this thread, I’m just the guy on the curb looking in through the dealership window passing by. That...

Whew, good to hear!! Looks like a different part number too between the two tags. Odd how his was folded up like that too instead of bunched up. I'm in agreement with you, and certainly going to listen to your experience, in that I can let this worry go to the side! When I do the drain/fill in...

Interesting thanks guys! I saw the link to the old post as well, helped to explain the difference. Seems like this current version (modular instead of molded) has a thicker/tougher skin. I wonder if a molded on a warranty claim for replacement could be switched to a modular instead of another...

Well...sh*t. Guess I'll let the paranoia creep in now too, and will plan on taking my pan back off to get that damn tag out of there! Here's mine...see it? If that thing blocks the filter port and restricts the fluid flow, then no bueno.... Ford needs to issue a recall for this tag! My fluid...

In all seriousness, yes I do this, and have for the last 20 years on 10 cars with 0% engine problems. One poster mentioned karosene in the crank case of an old truck. You laugh, but that is a farmer’s trick to keep those tractors working for decades. It absolutely works to keep varnish at bay...

Saw this on a carfax for a 2024…guessing the same thing?

I’ve now seen a few broncos with the factory painted top. I’m not sure how that’s going to be any better than the MIC top, unless if it’s more rigid and stronger inside of it? Seems like the paint would crack as it flexes? What about scratches too? Piano black shows everything. Am I missing...

It’s all in how you treat it! Yeah it’s a Ford, but you know what? I’ve heard horror stories about VW most of my life, and yet have owned 5 since my first 1987 GTI and they were all spectacular, so believe what you want. I came from over-engineered overly complex Mercedes to my Bronco. I have...

BigBird. Gives reference to full size, Bronco Badlands, and color to beloved object we all know. That, and it's pretty funny too! I'm a green OBX named Callahan in reference to the obvious Tommy Boy movie! StickerFab made me a custom sticker over the rear Ford badge of my avatar. I've been...

There is one in every class!! 😆

All except the Wrangler are “rivals” only in the sense of being able to go off-roading. Otherwise, unless if you can take the top off, they’re all just “different”. I am the perfect example. Coming out of a luxury German sedan, I wanted a convertible, and I wanted to sit higher up off the...

When I did mine at 4k miles, the car was cold. I set it up the night before and then went at it the next morning. Was part of changing over to the PPE transmission pan for the drain plug ability. Skip all the repeats.......I refilled it with 6 quarts of Ford fluid. at 6,800 miles I had it at the...

November 2017. Mr. Tire for a rotation and balance before heading back to DC. Literally watched him take the car for the “quality check” test drive after performing the service, and seeing the tire fly off the car from the shop at 50mph. Pure luck and God’s grace nobody hurt. Tire went into an...

Just curious, sorry if I missed it within this thread, but are you Sasquatch or 4.27 rear locker, or non locker? When I test drove a few broncos before buying, all 2.7 but none Sas or rear locker, they started off a bit smoother than mine which does have the 4.27 rear end gearing for the locker...

For the lux electric seats. Any way to buy the drivers seat lower frame and switch gear and install it on the front passenger seat too? Would love to add the additional movements of the drivers lower seat to the passenger seat as well (namely the ability to raise/lower just the front edge of...
