Hey everyone,
First real concern I've had with this bronco receiving it.
Specs: 2021 2.7 big bend no mods done
My external temp is reading waaayyyy hotter than actual. I noticed it about a week ago consistently reading off and made appt with dealer to chrkc it out but I'm 3 weeks out from appt...
I towed with another truck that recently died, have 2023 F150 on order and waiting delivery to replace. so for now i use my bronco to tow this camper. It weighs 2,780 loaded (cat scale verified) bronco does very well. Trailer is 16 feet long and doesnt sway much at all with "recurve" WDH. Drove...
I was hoping that was maybe the case, I'm not the smartest when it comes to the mechanics of the bronco, just saw the temps rise so fast and thought it was going to damage longevity of motor if it does it everything I turn AC off. Thanks for the info.
Sorry if this has been answered, I searched but couldn't find anything.
When I run my bronco 4 door big bend 2.7 normal backroad 45 mph maybe 50 with AC on I get temp readings at
Oil- 189
Trans-179 give or take a couple
When I turn AC off driving normal with window down I get temps at
Oil-...
That's all great info, thanks. As far as the specs of my bronco:
2.7 4 door big bend non SAS with 12.5 mpg average at around 65-68 mph on highway. I transported with completely dry water tanks and normal over night luggage. The propane tanks were full. As for the spare tires I completely agree...
I looked but couldn't find exactly what I was researching so apologies if it's repetitive. I drove from PA to NC to pick up new light weight camper for family. First off it towed great! 2,400 lbs dry weight going up and down NC and VA long grades. Oil temp stayed below 235 and Trans under 207...
