Hey everyone, I just posted my 2 year review.

If anyone is just lurking the forums and hasn't decided to buy a Bronco yet, let me know if you have any specific questions. Especially if it's about the Badlands and/or with the Sasquatch package.

I have only 18,000 km or 11,000 miles.
Covid destroyed my car usage. 🤷‍♂️

Quite the opposite here. Covid increased our fun vehicle usage. No one is telling us what to do down here.

Nice video review @jaeggernaut. And, you survived the bolt right to the eyeball.

Bolts, metal shavings, dirt,.. oh, so many things ..

Someone should’ve told me that installing your own mods isn’t as easy as it looks. 😅

kudos to all those that make it look so easy. 👏

How is the EcoBoost? I have a regular V6 in my 16 F150 and the I4 I test drove seemed on par (as much as one can gather driving for 15 minutes) at least and a wee peppier. The PU has that step on gas "let's see if he really meant to do that" lawyer delay throttle response I HATE.

Yup. I really dislike the throttle delay too. Keeps reminding me why I hate automatics.
the ecoboost is good. Really like it. It’s definitely not ‘fast’ but it has enough pick up and go that it doesn’t feel slow. I’ve heard good things about the 4cyl too. But I have nothing to complain about regarding the 6cyl.

Love your videos, glad you didn’t get squashed on your Ducati at the pumps. 😜

Still sporting the zip ties I see. I’m probably going back to the bronco rodeo in August in Pigeon Forge, will probably pickup a steel rear bumper like yours. I don’t want to mount the tag to the tire, so I may be zip tying mine too! 🤫😂🤓

Both my kids and I worked straight through. My son even had 2 jobs for a while. He was given the opportunity to stay home and draw gov money or work. He chose to work. Very proud of my kids and their work ethics.

A pedal commander or similar product will help with the throttle delay, or get the Ford Performance tune and get better response and shifting and more HP, but requires premium fuel to realize full hp potential.
I have the 2.3 and it has plenty of power.
BTW, your post that was deleted earned you another follower. lol.

‘23 BB Sas with the V6. I can’t say enough good about the 2.7 EcoBoost. I’m averaging 19 mph, about 60% on the highway and love its torque and refinement. It’s not “fast” like a 5.0 Mustang but the midrange power is fantastic. Passing slower vehicles on a 2-lane is a piece of cake, it gets from 45-75 mph extremely quickly. The 10/speed automatic works well with it, downshifting quickly to keep it on boost. I planned on a 2.3L/manual to keep cost down but the order kept getting pushed back. The V6 automatic added about $3500 to the sticker, but was accepted immediately and has been worth the cost.
