  1. Off road shop labor rates?

    Truckguys, Weymouth, MA, start at $100/hr and go up, depending on how technical the work (e.g. electrical) is. Also, whether you're providing the accessories or them (merchandise profit factor). I have a guy who works for a Ford dealership I pay $75/hr, cash, on his own time.
  2. Newb roof rack questions

    Welcome, new brother, you and your OB. There's lots of threads and posts on roofracks (roofwracks?). Be sure to search out other threads and posts on things you're interested, like tires and wheels. Lots, lots, lots of info and opinions. I mean, lots. So careful with starting threads, please...
  3. Bronco ran the red light

    In Boston, yellow means "proceed as before." Pick up a little speed, maybe Red, first five seconds mean "Just make sure you're past the stop line, because then you have to keep going so as not to block the intersection." Red, second fifteen seconds, or if you tailgate the car(s) in front of you...
  4. SUMA Ceramic Coating Spray | Customer's Reviews

    I have the MekMagnet body armor covering. Has anybody put that product over yours? It uses a gummy adhesive instead of a magnetic undersurface, as there's very little steel on the Bronco body. https://www.mekmagnet.com/

    @SeptuagenarianSasquatch Will email you shortly.
  6. Replacing Side View Mirror Assembly ?

    As long as you're messing around with your mirrors, you might consider this for an upgrade: https://thebronconation.com/accessories-n.136/suma-performance-mirrors-%E2%80%94-huge-improvement-to-visibility-t.20082/#post-301462
  7. Replacing Side View Mirror Assembly ?

    Sorry about your mishap. Ask around, check for prices, then do the arithmetic for an insurance settlement. You not only have to figure out how this compares to forking out for your deductible (ouch), but ask your agent "What will my premiums be for the next 3, 5, or 7 years?" depending on how...
  8. Still going! Icon Tie Rods $240 on Amazon! Be gone Bronco TAX!

    Regarding taxes, NH is a trade-off: property taxes are high because the state offers minimal services, especially the funding of education: that falls on the towns, which is what you're paying for. So NH has no income or estate/death taxes, that's the saving. Regarding my son, he's renting in...
  9. Auto folding side mirrors?

    Maybe if the mirror function was integrated to the fob? 1) open mirrors, 2) start vehicle and/or unlock doors. But yes, side (not door) mounted as they are is a problem. I do like the idea, if there's a solution. They'd be handy on the trail for when you're cutting it close to a high obstacle...
  10. Badlands Club

    @CelticCactus Just messaged you, and was about to close out these alerts, and I noticed: your character is a cowgirl? Whadyaknow--my heroine is a farm girl with a strong rodeo subplot!
  11. BASE SQUATCH first time in the snow using 4A.

    It's a combination of sensors (wheel slippage), computer analysis, and delivery of power as (computer) directed. I've had two Toyota minivans (oh, the shame!😣): a Previa and a Sienna, both had them. The Previa was good (had to shovel out a couple of times), the Sienna superb (always got out...
  12. BASE SQUATCH first time in the snow using 4A.

    I believe you mean "4H for pavement under slipper conditions--snow, ice, slush, sand, unpaved roadway, etc." Right? Both tires on each axel move in unison in 4H, so the inside turning arc of one side is different from the turning arc of the other (outside) one. This means they're turning...
  13. Badlands Club

    @CelticCactus You're a writer? Me, too! I'm working on a series (4 books) that follows the characters through 40 years of love and marriage. I've been to Utah three times (in a rented Jeep Patriot :+( ..., a rented Wrangler :+| ..., and my Badlands :=) doing research. What do you write?
  14. Looking for a Bronco6g Pineapple Pizza sticker

    You can buy Yeti products with Bronco logos at the other site. Nothing succeeds like excess, you know.
  15. STUCK and SMASHED Snow Wheeling 🫣 [VIDEO]

    So jealous...all we get in Boston is slush...sigh...😞
  16. Still going! Icon Tie Rods $240 on Amazon! Be gone Bronco TAX!

    That's exactly what I'm doing: installing the Icons, and carry the OEMs as a spare--or for a possible trail assist to somebody who needs one. At $100-130* per side (inner & outer) this is financially equivalent to buying a spare pair of OEMs for the trail. *Somebody check me on the pricing. I...
  17. Still going! Icon Tie Rods $240 on Amazon! Be gone Bronco TAX!

    My order went through. (I think.) Also ordered GlueTread repair kit. My son just moved to tax-free New Hampshire, so I also saved $20! With the K02s I've bought (but won't mount till summer) I'm ready and raring to go for the backtrails! Edit/PS: Considering they're $420 direct from Icon...
  18. Anybody pulled over by cops for tires poking out from fender flares?

    What's the homicide rate in Pittsburgh? Philadelphia?
  19. I got scammed!

    Could be he suffers from HDS--Honesty Deficiency Syndrome. It's become pandemic. As a matter of fact, I think I saw his BD parked in the "Reserved For the Morally Handicapped" parking space. Sorry about your misfortune. Hope my weak joke helps...a little...:cry:
