Probably. Our local Discount Tire said company policy prevented them from patching a hole that big for liability reasons. Agree, it may have been a ploy to sell us a new tire, but they also told us any number of local tire shops would have no qualms patching a hole that big. Our call. Decided...

Picked up this bolt with less than 2k on the odo. Discount/America's Tire wouldn't patch it, so we bought a new tire. Their "new" tire had a DOT date code 15 mo. older than the tires on our Bronco (about 4 mo. old). To their credit they tried ordering two more tires with the hope of getting a...

Good catch, cbrenthus. I edited my post to make is easier for those that didn't know this was a thread about tow capacity, to connect the dots ;)

If the tow capacity for a given configuration is blank what does that mean exactly? To be determined? Unsafe to tow anything? Common sense says every configuration is capable of towing something--even if it's only 1000 lbs.

Have a '23 2dr Badlands SAS. Drives like a big go-kart thanks to the short wheelbase. Steering is quick and nimble--feels stable and planted at all speeds. The only time we notice cross-winds is when the interior wind noise picks-up. Back in Jan, towed our 2500 lb. teardrop trailer 4,000...

Local dealer has 10 Broncos in-stock. They had two new '23 Raptors for $4.5k under MSRP last week. One just sold. Four new '23 Broncos are $4.5K - $5.5k under MSRP. Five 24's are $2k under MSRP. They appear to be selling about 2 a week.

Only use 6th when it doesn't require a lot of boost. That's not often. I get the impression you're getting ~1 mpg better than we are. We both have the same axle ratios (4.70). However, we have the 35's (vs. your 33's). Also, we run our 35's at 32 psi. Prefer the softer ride, plus they...

Non SAS, right? Auto/7sp? Hand calculated or dash mpg? Our Badlands 2dr SAS 2.3 7sp typically gets 16-17 around town and the same 16-17 at 70-75 mph. 80 mph it drops to 15-16. Surprisingly, it jumps up to 19-20 at 65. All hand calculated. Dash MPG tends to read 1.5 mpg higher. EPA is 16...

We were doing a nationwide search for a new Bronco Badlands back in May. At one point, we had decided to purchase one about 600 mi. away. Just as we were heading out the door to make the long drive, for some darn crazy reason it dawned on me to ask them to check the mileage. Glad I did. It...

Question: We recently DIY-programmed a 3rd FOB using the two original OEM FOBs. If we lose one of these two original OEM FOBs can we still DIY-program a 4th FOB (using the remaining original OEM FOB and the DIY-programmed 3rd FOB)?

ADM's are long gone, at least in our area. Local dealer has 12 new 2023/2024 Broncos (including two '23 Raptors) on the lot. All selling below MSRP. Discounts run anywhere from $1000 - $5000 (includes a $1000 finance discount). They all had $2k - $3k ADM's just 3 months ago.

The driver in the white car had a clear advantage. The driver in the white car was turning (and probably looking) left in a left turn lane (on a one-way thoroughfare) and had a totally clear view of the Bronco as it approached from the left. Unfortunately, the driver in the silver 4dr sedan...

Mabett mud flaps (and their clones) are a decent, reasonably priced option. Unfortunately, they mount directly to the front and rear fenders using metal brackets which sit exposed in the wheel wells, just inches away from the tire. One good hit to the metal bracket could potentially damage the...

Lotsa discussion about losing this, losing that when electrical/computer systems go haywire. I believe this is where 7sp owners have a distinct advantage. There's nothing in the Bronco (that I'm aware of) that can stop you from pushing the clutch pedal and moving the gear shift. You may not...

The OEM tow package provides full wiring support for a brake controller via a 7-pin trailer connector, plus a 4-pin connector for non-brake applications---that's a big plus. If you only have plans to tow small trailers with no brakes, you could pass on the OEM tow package and install an...

Yup, that's the right link (rokblokz.com). Just remove the two thumb screws and off it comes. We elected to use two standard SS allen screws with some loctite instead for a little bit of theft deterrence and to reduce the chance of anything vibrating loose. $419 is a bit of money for...

Excellent suggestions! Highly recommend Number 2--spare Key FOB. A friend miss-placed a FOB late Saturday on a cross-country trip. Required a 100 mi. tow, 2 nights in a hotel, and $1200 for new FOBs Mon morning. Ditto on the OEM Ford floor mats. Rugged, well made, super pliable---awesome...

Our '23 BL is our first vehicle with a larger (12") display. Our past vehicles have all had 6 - 8" touchscreen displays. With the larger 12" display the touchscreen functions are much easier (and safer) to access/operate while driving. The higher resolution, rich colors and larger size makes...

If that voltage reading is accurate, that's wicked high---high enough to potentially do some damage. We've found the voltage on our Gauge display reads approx. .3 - .4v high vs. a Fluke voltmeter.

The Bronco has a 240a alternator, more than enough amps to keep *dual* H7 batteries in a big-block diesel fully charged, so not lacking in that respect. How it uses those 240a is another story. I've monitored the voltage on the Gauge display a few times. The voltage, on occasion, will...
