We used to get over there at least once a year- usually in the spring so the girls could see the dogwoods blooming. With our XP Turbos we ride all of the 1-3 trails and most of the 4's. My XP Turbo only has 30's on it...
Ever been to Green Acres in Clayton OK? We used to go there several times...
We mainly run around Pitkin, Tin cup. Hancock Pass, Alpine Tunnel. Also around Crested Butte- Devils Punch Bowl, Keebler Pass, etc. Also around Westcliffe- Hermit Pass and Cloverdale Mine. These trails we do with the Polaris General. For the bigger rocks at places like Hot Springs ORV park we...
That's my dilemna. Do I get a nice Bronco- OBX or Badlands and run it down the road and trails. and get it scratched and beat up- Or get the cheaper Base and make it a rock crawler and to/from the trails and not care as much if it gets beat up... Right now we have a Polaris General that we use...
How do you think a 2 door base with the 2.3L, 10 speed and SAS package will do?
Is the 2.3 enough power?
I would throw a 10k winch and skid plates on it.
Mainly rocky trails in Colorado...............
Same for me. I have a 600 mile drive to our vacation home and fuel economy matters. Then when there use the Bronco for access to fishing and camping in remote lakes. Gas is already $3.60 in our small mountain town
When I build a Badlands it charges me $1595 for the 10 speed. When I build a Black Diamond it doesn't charge me.
Both builds have the 2.7 which says it includes the 10 speed.
Is this an error in build and price?
Thanks
I have rear lockers on both trucks, my SxS's and tractors so I know how that works.
If the traction control and ABS can simulate lockers to some extent I can get a OBX with 4.27 or 3.73 and get better fuel economy on our 600 mile runs to our summer place in CO. I would like a Badlands but think...
Nobody drives at 55......... if you do you will get ran over..
On our long drives from TX to CO driving at 55 instead of 80 would take me an extra 3 hours or so, so that isn't happening either
Finally your data on fuel economy drop at speeds is worthless because the EPA doesn't test at 55mph...
