  1. Re-opening Paragon

    I see they are now charging fee for credit card too.......... :rolleyes:
  2. Re-opening Paragon

    It will be "weird" for us who went to Paragon a lot, calling the trails by different names. Looking forward to Rattler, rock faces off coal road, "play area" (with higher speed dirt hills) again.......... :)
  3. Re-opening Paragon

    Yes, pretty much it. This was the last run ever. Feb 3/4, 2007 http://luxjo.supermotors.net/PARAGON/PARAGON%20RIP/3%20FEB%202007/PAP%20panorama%20sm.jpg
  4. Re-opening Paragon

    I emailed them about a year ago. NR, PAForester <[email protected]> Wed, Apr 3, 2024, 10:02 AM to me Hi Henry, Thank you for asking. We initially intended to open the area to ATV riding this year, but ran into some major obstacles along the way. The most...
  5. Talk me INTO our OUT OF... 40s- Raptor- Decision Made

    Well hopefully you guys get up this way @ Rausch or AOAA at some point to run the "reds", so I can check out your rides.
  6. Talk me INTO our OUT OF... 40s- Raptor- Decision Made

    I get it. Big tires rule in the sloppy east coast envr when you either can't pick your line (mostly due to trees in the way) or you do pick it and promptly slide right off it from moss, wet leaves, or even the guy who just did that line, left 1" of greasy mud all over what was the preferred...
  7. Low value on used Bronco

    As I mentioned, it was always Galves in the NE for auction price, which is what trade always "used" to be.

    I missed the breasts?????, carry on............
  9. 74weld now on the B6G forum! Page 31

    If doing this much work, Is it possible to go to a virtual scrub radius, lower dual balljoint setup, or does that only work with "strut" susp? (obviously would have to ditch lower A-arm)
  10. Oops... I did it again (Broke another CV Shaft)

    @ only 22% reduction @ portals, I agree. My mogs are 2.13 (with 3.54 diff gear), so it's ballpark "100%' difference between axles and tire (obviously I'm very limited on top speed). They also use a double cardan for steering axle, which I've never broke @ 6200 lb and 43 stickies. I've always...
  11. Ford CEO says some fun toys coming -- wants Ford to be "the Porsche of off-road."

    Had less overall problems on my first new car, 86 Capri 5.0, than any new Ford in the past 10 years I've gotten (3 Stangs, 3 Escapes, 2 Fusions, and an F250).
  12. Low value on used Bronco

    Did not read all 10 pages of this, but up until Covid, dealers in NE at least, mostly used Galves for trade in values. They are closer to auction price and lower than the 'blue book" web sites. They always used that number when I asked, especially on vehicles that were just run of the mill...
  13. Free Wheeling Package Debuts for 2025 Bronco

    Understood, but think the "std" version stripes would be a nice, more subtle package. Even the "full" Chromatic free wheelin stripes (you've shown), were much more subtle than the new 6G package (which kind of looks like what came on some of the pickups, with neither roof or hood stripes).
  14. Free Wheeling Package Debuts for 2025 Bronco

    Nothing like either of these?
  15. 5/14/2026 Update - Bronco Raptor Megazilla Godzilla 7.3L V8 Conversion

    :D:D Well good luck with it either way. Will be cool to see it when all done.
  16. 5/14/2026 Update - Bronco Raptor Megazilla Godzilla 7.3L V8 Conversion

    If the Ecoboosts (and turbos in general) are so great out of the hole, with the torque converter supposedly making up for any deficiency, why do you have to brake boost turbos to get the best performance? Easy answer is that off boost, the ecoboosts are total slugs. So yes, you can multiply...
  17. 5/14/2026 Update - Bronco Raptor Megazilla Godzilla 7.3L V8 Conversion

    Easy and "cheap" I agree with. What is your "expensive" and "hard to do" plan to equal the reliability, packaging, and low end torque of a Godz or larger LS? The true answer is, you can't. Once you add forced induction, reliability drops, apples to apples. You can try to add better parts...
  18. 5/14/2026 Update - Bronco Raptor Megazilla Godzilla 7.3L V8 Conversion

    Yeah, it's not like anyone took this old "ineffecient" design concept, and swapped it into EVERY vehicle on the planet @ some "stupid" HP levels, for minimal mods........... Oh Wait!!. (you don't know how much I hate you right now, making me "defend" LS swaps). :)
  19. 5/14/2026 Update - Bronco Raptor Megazilla Godzilla 7.3L V8 Conversion

    Part throttle (and off idle) LINEAR torque curve.(especially dynamically, on/off throttle). No one ever dynos/datalogs or "shows" that. Your "750 HP" 3.0, is probably going the wrong way in this regard.
