I'm loving mine. So is my almost 16 year old who is about to get his license. It's helping him become a car nut. He is pointing out every Porsche, Mustang, Bronco, etc.
So far I put on a Curt Trailer hitch (no wiring yet - still need to figure out the 7 pin wiring for a base Bronco) and...
Holy cow your little guy looks TINY compared to that big ole truck! I'm sure you and your kiddo are going to have a blast in that thing! Congratulations!
The more I see the HPR on the Bronco the more I like it. I didn't like it on the Ranger because there was not anything to break up the color. I think the hard top being a different color helps that color immensely. Great looking rig! Enjoy!
I love wagons. That looks amazing. My car before this was a BMW wagon. If the Bronco had not worked out, I'd be actively seeking an Allroad (the new ones are bad to the bone - I'm glad Audi brought back the bigger wagon) or a Volvo v90 (not the cross country version).
Mine made it home today! I got to test the trail turn assist on the empty sand beaches of lake mcconaughy in Ogallala Nebraska and it was a hoot! I felt like a teenager doing donuts on the sand. My wife got in on the fun too! The 3 hour drive home was a treat!
I'm interested to see Ogallala. It's close to Lake McConaughy which is supposed to be fun camping spot. I'm going to check it out to see if it would be a good place to take the family this spring/summer and break out the SUPs and fly rods.
Eastern Colorado is pretty flat w/o much variety...
I have a base bronco, so no heated seats or steering wheel for me. Less is more? My wife drives a Lincoln Nautilus and I can attest that the heat generated by the steering wheel heater will roast a whole frozen chicken in under 5 minutes.
Dealer just emailed and said my Bronco will be at the dealer this coming Monday so now I have to book the bus trip to Nebraska! It's supposed to be cold here next week, so the drive home should be a good test of the truck's heater! Glad there's no snow in the forecast!
It took from 10/28 until today at 4:43 pm to get from the plant to Denver and for the rail car to be empty and "released to Customer" (not to me, but to the trucking co to bring it to the dealer, I assume - which is a 3-4 hour drive from the Union Pacific depot). I thought that was pretty darn...
Just called CSX and yesterday my railcar is in a town about 45 miles east of my dealer, BUT I think it has to actually come to Denver then back to the dealer. I only know this from another friend that bought from the same dealer. I probably have another week or so to wait. We shall see, but...
There's a thread for wiring. It seems somewhat doable if you only need a 4 pin. If you need the 7 pin, it looks much trickier. I have a base sasquatch coming soon and want to figure out 7 pin by next summer for camping purposes. Hopefully Ford comes out with a harness, etc. that makes it a...
I'm hoping that @HeyDobby is too busy driving around in a new bronco with a huge grin to respond. Hopefully we'll get an update once she gets tired of driving it and has a couple celebratory beverages tonight!
Called CSX and my Bronco is in Gibson IN, with no ETA available. Hopefully it won't be sitting on a side track too long. IN is a long way and a few states away from CO. Need to get that rail car moving!
