  1. So many posts about MIC tops with stress cracks, anyone out there have an older Bronco without cracks?

    I had my '23 MIC top on a Top Lift Pro from early January until mid-May when I left Florida. No issues.
  2. Still On The Fence About Getting A Dash Cam? Take A Look

    My daughter's Tesla Model 3 automatically records from the built-in cameras. I assume all Teslas do the same but I could be wrong. In fact, it was right after she was hit and was able to clearly show that the other driver swerved into her lane which made his insurance pay for her damages that I...

    Michigan Bronco Club

    @Mattwings Thanks, I'll check out the other club forum. Drummond Island is 4 hours away so very doable. I'll watch for details. Better than our annual trip to Windrock with my jeep club from my previous home base in Florida which was a 9 hour drive.
  4. Mudding + improper engin oilnusage.

    This is why I hate to wheel in Florida, too much water and mud, particularly where I'm at part of the year in NE Florida. It's a hassle, but it's 6-8 hours to get to decent places to go off-road in N. Georgia, Tennessee (e.g. Windrock) and Alabama (Chocolocco, Morris Mountain, and othes). After...

    Michigan Bronco Club

    Unfortunately, I don't facechat. I don't like the owner or their business model of selling user's data for profit which is why I came here rather than Facebook. Edit: sorry, you were trying to be helpful and that was snarky, I just can't stomach FB.

    Michigan Bronco Club

    Any Yoopers in the Michigan club? I split my time between Florida and the Marquette area. I am in the U.P. until late October. I found a few places to wheel but it seems there are more single-track ATV vs. full-width trails around here. Hoping to find others in the area to go exploring.
  7. Car collectors and insurance?

    Not just auto insurance, but wait until you pay homeowners insurance. You don't even have to live near the coast.
  8. NEW EZ4x4 GIVEAWAY – Win a Free Set of Aluminum Tube Doors ($1,000+ Value)

    These tube doors are the best I've seen for a Bronco. I prefer the look of the tube doors without the panels, but it's interesting how panels can give the illusion of additional safety. I had tube doors on my previous jeeps and prefer the openness of just the tube doors while my wife wouldn't...
  9. 3 Most USED Mods on Broncos? Go!

    Right....that's why I keep a hoodie in the Bronco for nights and highways. 😁
  10. 3 Most USED Mods on Broncos? Go!

    Just assembled my TopLift Pro X-mas gift and I think it will become my new No. 1. It helps that it's a beautiful sunny 70 degree day for going topless.
  11. Gun / Firearm Racks & Storage [*** Storage Talk Only *** No Glorification, States, Laws, Permits, Politics or Usage Discussions]

    Subscribed because I also don't have an ideal location. I don't carry a firearm in my Bronco frequently, but I do transport a small pistol between houses in different states. Currently using a small portable safe under the passenger seat. Don't really want to carry it on me traveling through...
  12. SAS ride quality on interstate highways?

    I drove 1500 miles in 3 days going from Michigan to Florida last fall in my Wildtrak and loved the ride on the interstates compared to my two Wranglers. I'll be heading back to Michigan soon and have no qualms about the trip and the ride quality. It helps that I have a hardtop and my Wranglers...
  13. 2024 Ford Bronco Review: Yes, it's awesome, but ... Autoblog

    ^^ Exactly my experience. A little wind noise coming from upper passenger top starting around 75 mph, but very tolerable and easy to carry on a conversation. Now my 2-dr soft-top Rubicon? Totally different story.
  14. Valentine's Day

    My dear sweet wife knows what I like. Her Valentine's Day gift tops the flowers I bought her.
  15. Android Auto 11 beta released

    AA works perfect in my BMW and my wife's Audi, but it's hot garbage in the Bronco. Freezing screen, unexplained switching between Ford Sync and AA, unexplained switching between audio sources, unexplained switching between navigation sources. Not holding out much hope unless Ford fixes it on...
