I like the hard top and didn’t know that it was a painted MIC until this thread but suspected as much. I did find a set of local Badlands rock rail takeoffs for $100. Just gotta decide if putting removable steps on them are the way to go or not. Wifey is short and I aint getting younger so I...
Good information, I received nothing when I bought my 2023 last month so I signed up for one month of connected navigation and connected premium… just to see what I was missing. Appears navigation is truly not very useful over what I have with Apple maps; if I do intend on going somewhere more...
No I couldn’t pull the trigger on a two door with a stick (not to mention almost impossible to find around me) so I went with the four door automatic. :sigh
yes, I’d definitely be up for going to Talladega. I have little experience and hope to do the byob off roadeo this year but anxious to...
I’m 55, loving my new to me 23 Badlands bought last month. Had pickup trucks for most of the last 20 years but after I got out of the Air Force I bought a 91 twin turbo 300zx and then shortly after a 98 Cobra … then my new wife made me buy grown up vehicles :smh
my current wife encouraged me to...
Same, I just bought a 2023 but it was a CPO, Ford Blue Advantage so comes with about 11,000 points or something like that. Been a month so I guess I need to call the dealer.
Good to know about extended warranty… I won’t worry about it. It does look great and paint looks great overall. I normally would have done due diligence beforehand and probably even avoided a vehicle thats been customized but decided to live on the edge (with a huge warranty :ROFLMAO: ) … the...
It is really hard for me to tell without seeing a real painted top in person to compare to. I thought it was orange peel at first but now I’m thinking its the honeycomb I have read about MIC tops having. I like it either way but given this had 140 point inspection for the Ford Blue Advantage and...
Pricey? Hah, I thought giving up Harley’s and taking up hunting would be less expensive; nope just a different money sink! But I will check out both options, thank you.
This is what I feared, thanks for confirming. At least the original owner didn’t likely go real “off roading” or just got lucky. My wife is gonna miss the hoop steps. I like the look but I want functionality
Cant wait to take tops off to see what its like. I dont have storage bags yet and don’t want to damage the paint. I will look at a couple sites to see if I can identify the mesh shade.
This is exactly the type of post I hoped for, thank you. Apparently I never hit send on the next post with more photos so there are some more.
I didn’t know what I didn’t know when I bought it so I was originally concerned when I found out the fenders and hard top weren’t Badlands items but the...
I bought this 2023 Badlands a few weeks back and have yet to figure out what all the previous owner added vs stock. Not fully familiar with 6G so been slowly figuring it out. Figured posting pics here was probably more reliable than anything. Thanks for the help and glad to be here. Looking...
I’m also in Alabama, hope to see that awesome rig in person someday. I bought my 23 Badlands in Montgomery a few weeks ago and it doesn’t look like any of the others I’ve seen. Still trying to determine based on searching the web and the monroney sticker to see what came stock and what was added...
