  1. Gasoline octane & MPG

    I often see people passing me at WOT (wide open throttle) when there is an obvious RED traffic light 1/4 mile ahead. I always wonder if they complain about the crappy fuel mileage their vehicle is getting.

If it didn’t look EXACTLY like an old Bronco, Ford would probably have no claims. The body ā€œstyleā€ may be a...

    I love going out to BBRSP. In the two years since I’ve had the Bronco, Iā€˜ve been out there 5 or 6 times. Iā€˜ve always gone solo and have used a Garmin InReach Mini for texting communication. Can’t wait to try out the Starlink out there. I’m pretty sure you will be able to make video calls...

    For your always hot air compressor wiring (or any other 12 V add-ons), please fuse your wiring at the battery connection. A 12 VDC battery short in any unfused wire will render it instantly glowing orange with the insulation quickly burning off. The short will continue until the circuit is...

  17. Satellite Radio issues?

    I have no issues with my reception except when sitting under a concrete overpass and occasionally under large trees.
