Not proposed, part of the Inflation Reduction Act that unfortunately was passed: https://www.carscoops.com/2023/12/here-are-the-facts-about-the-kill-switch-mandate-for-cars-thats-already-passed/

It is being fought but hasn't been voted down. As for drunk driving people who drive drunk drive too slow or too fast, swerve eratically or brake eratically. Don't want my car shut down for 10 over or avoiding a deer or squirrel. No nanny ware for me, thank you.

We are not far off though from a government entity or auto manufacturer hitting a kill switch, which are supposed to be manditory in 2026.

Why all the electronics? To meet the 2026 Requirements to turn off the car remotely if you are not driving the speed limit, or distracted, or aggressively or possibly intoxicated. Self driving cars will be able to drive themselves to the bank if you miss a payment. Why did I buy a 2024? No...

One thing that really torqued me at a local dealership that I fired, they jerked me around, trying to get me into a more expensive one. I wanted an Outer Banks, kept trying to get me into a Black Diamond (Bigger tires, soft tops and rubber interior.) They have 3 local lots here and a 4th some...

BTW, the manual Jeep was manufactured in 1984. I don't think they have a manual one at this time (I could be wrong.) Nowadays I think any manual vehicle gets special discounts on insurance because nobody has 'em or can drive 'em except a few Boomers and Gen Xers (joke actually). If my wife...

The topic, Bronco Supply on lots is up. Flash, Jeep Wrangler's on lots way up. Before I bought mine in April (OB Lux Package) I drove a Jeep. Still felt like the 80's era Jeep, just not torquey and no manual. The New Jeep did have more power and felt faster, just not the same feel of a good ol'...

I really don't blame people for being skeptical, including Ford on warrantee claims. There are those out there that don't get oil changes or check fluids and make warranty claims after the engine spontaneously disassembles itself and the liquid left in the crankcase is thick and doesn't drain...

Where will you fuel this hydrogen powered Bronco? Also want to drive around with a 25,000 lb/sq inch bomb in the back? Finally how will you combat hydrogen embrittlement? Not trying to start an argument! Just hydrogen isn't the energy solution people think it is.

Ford can't make them for free, the dealership has to pay for the inventory. Inventory on the lot costs the dealership money too. They want to milk every last dollar out of them. Best thing Ford could do to move them would be to offer lower financing. Ford, dealerships and financinbg companies...

Here in the Central US, they're not selling as fast as they once were. Lot of great points here and I think all converge creating a large inventory due to slow sales. Look at a dealership selling Jeeps, they aren't selling and sales are worse than the Bronco. 6 months ago you would rarely see a...

Lighter weight = Improved acceleration in many instances although there are exceptions. Removing Doors, top, etc, higher aerodynamic drag. More aerodynamic roofline may improve mileage

Thank you for the update! I like engine mods, exhaust, intake and the like. My issue is every time I add them is I really don't get better mileage, I truly have a discipline problem, but the fun factor for everyday driving has increased. There is a very high degree of satisfaction on a long trip...

Surprises me people don't check it. Remember port injected Fords it was almost spot on, now with direct injection it's not as accurate. Had a friend with a Charger RT swore he was getting 27 mpg, then he did the math. It was still good but dropped 3 mpg.

Here's a wrinkle, computer says 18.5 mpg. Math says 17.5 mpg, 2nd time I've filled up. OBX, 2.7 4.27 gears... how many of you have done the math???

Good question, however denser air charge = more power so sea level is the gold standard for air density. Less aerodynamic drag with thinner air though... Wonder what type mileage Bronco owners in Colorado are getting in the mile high city? Mileage was a bit of a consideration when I bought...

Also rejoice, jeeps aside from the four cylinder get much worse gas mileage. Gas mileage increases measured in 10ths are also somewhat useless unless it is over long distances with similar terrain, temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, wind, etc. This is why EPA mileage testing is over...

Face Facts, you bought a big vehicle with large tires, 330 HP engine, and the aerodynamics of a brick designed with specific attributes to go where there is no pavement, you bought a Performance vehicle, not a Prius. Pumping up your tires beyond the recommended pressure only makes them wear out...

With the proper hagling one can negotiate a lower than MSRP OTD price on a 2024 Bronco that is low enough to make it well worth it. YouTube can be your best friend and literally can save you thousands. Just be willing to walk. 1st dealership wouldn't sell me what I wanted (kept showing me...

Asking people to pay less than MSRP out the door for an item they really want isn't going to happen, they'll buy in spite of that. I wouldn't buy with the "regional price adjustments" until they ended, now 2023's are regularly displayed on dealership websites at discounts, aside from the Raptor...
