I had a deal on one that had to be brought in from out of town by my local dealer. After several weeks of no movement and the same nothing updates from the sales guy, I talked to the providing dealer, who said they never agreed to trade the Bronco and would not. When I confronted my sales guy...

If concerned about your Bronco catching fire while not running, install a simple battery-disconnect switch like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001N729FS?ref_=ppx_oui_title_mob_b_fed_asin_title_0_0 I use these on my vintage Mustangs,.but cannot speak to fit or function of this one on the Bronco.

One rodent deterrent I have found to be effective is to place used cat litter under the vehicle (if you have a cat or know someone with a cat). Apparently rodents know that smell and will usually steer clear. That is better than hosting rodents.

I have MGV seats and like them. Very comfortable for me and my wife. I have taken numerous 5-hour trips. They should wear well, too. They do get hot in direct sun but that is easy to address. I find the breathability better than expected but I am also Ok with a little heat. They are much...

Thanks! What I figured, unfortunately.

Nice. Are the Ford-provided numbers for the FP Tune at the crank or wheels?

Wouldn't that be BHP (at the crank), not at the wheels? Manufacturers usually rate power at the crank.

While modern cars are faster on average (especially due to so many with turbos and superchargers) than cars of the muscle-car era, you are discounting top muscle cars too much. Times from that era like you quoted were hamstrung due to the crap tires of that day. I have modern performance tires...

Funny story. I own a '69 Mustang Mach I big-block 428 Cobra Jet, 4-speed, 3.91 gears. I was at a stoplight last summer where two lanes merge.to one after 1/4 mile. Up rolls a Honda Odyssey with a high-school kid driving. He surprises me by jumping on it at the green light and sprints away from...

Interesting reference. My daily driver is an Infiniti sedan (G37xS) and my 2-door 2.7L Bronco cannot keep up with it.

Definitely should teat drive both. Be sure to have the specific config you want. I test drove a 2-door 2.3L 7MT Big Bend and acceleration was adequate for me. Then I test drove a 2-door 2.3L 7MT Badlands (my target config) and it was noticeably slower off the line due to bigger tires and added...

It's wild they have so many. Cornering the market, I guess!

Good find. I'd still want confirmation, since several I pursued based on low advertised online price turned out to be bait and switch -- they applied a max number of discounts that would not apply to me (or likely anyone) to get to that price and/or had exorbitant dealer fees on top of that...

Used for sure. I thought he was referring to new.

That Stroppe pricing seems optimistic. When I was hunting mine in May-June, I had only one dealer com even close to that price and I had to travel to get it. Have they dropped that much since June?

Do share your price on the Stroppe. I have an iron stomach, so can handle it!

I bought a 2025 in June. No mention of stop sale. At another dealer I was negotiating, they had a 2025 that had Stop Sale on it in May but then lifted it in June. These are all Stroppes.

Jesse (the Body)! "You're hit. You're bleedin', man." Jesse: "I ain't got time to bleed."

277 miles each way. I had a high-value trade, so the combination of the lowest vehicle price and highest trade-in value made it worth it.

I have a 2-door Stroppe and they are nice. I usually do not use running boards, but with these tires spitting rocks constantly (I am on gravel a lot), they are a necessity (even with mud guards).
