17 combo for Sas Package all across the board. I didn't expect city to match that of the highway.
(and for all my stalking on Bronco6G I finally am a second third poster!)
Ya know, I think this is one of the reasons the tow rating is so low at only 3,500. YES, I realize it is an offroad vehicle and has a soft suspension, etc. but this transmission sure doesn't help the case.
I wish it was the 10R80 in the Ranger and then I think the tow rating would be...
I will say for me the main reason I want the Bronco comes down to:
- Convertible roof
- Doors come off
- Offroadability
- It is NOT a Jeep!
The drain holes I wish were standard on all trims. The go pro mounts and dislike, I kind of get as I won't use em.
I do like this concept, however it looks like the swing tailgate cannot be used. Plus I have a 14 foot kayak so I would be leery to put something that large up top.
I am getting the MIC with the roof rack, but really want to try a bimini in the summer with a roof top option for my kayaks (I...
I do like the option, and in years past a used one would have been an consideration. I DO like the higher tow capacity at 5,300 a bunch.
I however, am choosing a roof off, door off Bronco and selling my camper and going back to a tent.
I plan on purchasing with a loan. I plan on keeping the vehicle for a number of years and will not be paying in cash as the financing options (0-4%) are less than I could make return wise in the market.
Granted, this will be the most expensive vehicle (and first new vehicle!) I have ever...
I am waiting for at least a MY22 or maybe MY23 at this rate ha. I need to see the thing (I haven't yet) and without a reservation 2021 hope is definitely gone. I may be looking at a low mileage used certified one if I can find any in end of 22 like you. Who knows when it actually happens but...
I still think the ROI on the breakeven point between the cost of a YETI cooler and a couple bags of ice is pointless. Also, have fun trying to get that sucker on top of your roof! Just get a roof basket or put it in the back.
Alright I read so more of the posts, and edited my response. Geez...
Ya that white one that is a Wildtrak badging and lower graphic kit, appears to have the black diamond optional rims and grabber tires? Anyone else notice that?
Yes roof racks, versus inside versus hitch mount is always a question. I go inside first, then hitch, last roof.
I personally am not looking forward to the swing tailgate, as I hope it clears my hitch mount. Worse case I just get a drop hitch and call it good (for all those times I have...
It works much better than lying your bike down as it holds it firm and upright. Worse case a bungee cord over the frame, or the seatpost to a point in the vehicle works for stabilization if needed.
Considering I ride over 100+ per year, and have a bike in my vehicle 200+ times a year this is...
I actively ride mountain bikes and prefer to keep them inside if I have the room (out of the elements, no theft, etc).
I have an expedition, and am going to miss not being able to store a bike with the front wheel off in the rear cargo area without folding down the seat. But the best way to...
Thank you OP so much for the write up! I am with you, I have not put in a reservation yet as I would like a green color, but mainly it is I can't fathom plopping down $58K for a vehicle I haven't even laid eyes on yet! Likely will be a MY22 or MY23 at the latest at this point but have been...
I really wish the trailer hitch was welded to the frame like the rear tow hooks.
My 2002 and 2005 trailblazer had the hitch welded to the frame, and every single one came with the hitch. It is something I have overlooked in how forward thinking this was on a mid-size SUV.
I plan on getting a Wildtak, and plan on forest roads and occasional trips to Silver Lake sand dunes. It will be a heavily used camp vehicle and mountain bike transporter (but in all honesty a minivan with AWD would be fine with this). I want the doors off and top off in the summer, never...
