I’ll get yelled at again for saying this, but if Ford offered a fixed metal (non removable) roof version of the Bronco with a manual transmission, I’d buy one in a second. I love everything about my Bronco except for the ridiculous top.
You own two of the last vehicles on the planet that can still be purchased with manual transmissions and you chose the automatic for both? That's just depressing and sad....
Threads like this hurt my brain. So I guess the consensus is that Ford specifies a synthetic blend for these engines deliberately so we ruin our engines and have to buy new ones?
The owner’s manual does not even list a full synthetic option. Car/engine engineers design engines based on a...
Nice! But what would REALLY make sense would be if Ford made a slot for the key in place of the idiotic start button. And then you rotated the key to start the car! That way, you wouldn’t have to find a separate place to put the key. It seems so logical that it’s hard to believe that no one...
The last time I had an on-road breakdown was due to a failed water pump in a BMW in 2016. Before that, it was a fuel pump failure on an Alfa in 2000. Before that, it was a timing belt on a Toyota in 1996. Can’t remember past that, but I don’t recall EVER having to put a spare tire on due to a...
Beautifu! The GT is such a timelessly beautiful design. I saw a yellow one a month ago, but they are extremely rare. In college in the late 70s, a friend had an Opal Manta. His was the only one I’ve ever seen.
Nice! I had the exact car from 1986 to 1996. Black with a 5-speed like yours. It was fun. I have not seen one on the road even once during this century. I’ve seen a couple of the next generation that I believe replaced the original in around 91. (A yellow one often appears in the original...
I would not even have considered buying a Bronco if a manual wasn't available. I've never owned a vehicle without a manual. My current vehicles have arguably the best manuals ever made, and I honestly think the manual in the Bronco is still great in comparison. I've also owned 3 BMWs with...
I think it depends on your trim. The speed limit is displayed in my Badlands with the High Package. I think you can turn it on and off, but maybe not. You obviously need to have NAV. I didn’t know my car had it, but one day I just noticed it was there.

Let’s see…
The Bronco is currently available in 9 different versions, manual or automatic, 3 different engines, soft-top or hard-top, Sasquatch or not, 32 through 37“ tires, and 2-door or 4-door, but the “purity” would be completely ruined and it would be a travesty and anathema to the ethos of...
Beautiful workmanship, but that thing has to be crazy expensive. I’d guess $10k minimum.
I’d actually be surprised Ford doesn’t release a fixed roof (metal) version of the Bronco in 25 or 26.
There are many sites that test radar detectors using scientific methods. Rather than reading them, you are asking people on a forum which is the best??.
If I ever need a heart transplant, I’ll be sure to ask people on a forum for advice rather than doing my own research.
