Bronco Team 2 door.

[TXBronco1313]

I drove this one before I bought my Wildtrak. They wanted 10k ADM. Even if they were selling it at MSRP I would not have bought it as i wasn’t willing to sacrifice the 2.7L engine. My daughter has a 2 door Big Bend with a 2.3L engine and while it’s peppy and efficient, there’s still a big difference between the two. I bet the 2.7 in a 2 door drives amazing.

Thanks so much for the context! yeah compromising on the engine is my only worry here. My current Bronco drives amazing and I know going from a 2 door 2.7L to a 4 door 2.3 might be very noticeable. I really don't want to make the wrong decision here so I've been really thinking about it. Wish I can have them both lol

I actually love my 2 Door, especially that it has the 2.7 L engine they discontinued from the Big Bend model but that 12' display with the winch are really playing games with my mind

I would keep it, get the Everglades wheels (which I do love), and wait for someone to figure out how to retrofit the 12" screen. There are 1000 ways to add a winch for much less.

BTW, with the winch, in my 2 door with the Ford Performance Tune, my Bronco still will cover the 1/4 mile in under 14.5 seconds at sea level and does 0-60 in the mid to low 6's. So, yes, I like the 2 door 2.7 - it's a nice balance.

I agree that the best answer is always 2 Broncos. LOL.

Did you do the install of that winch? I saw some videos, but wasn't big on relocating and cutting things.

2.7>2.3 by a long shot

Thank you, it was actually a process trying to find the right orange but I think the final product came out good. This was the Ford Performance powder color and I just didn't like how it came out.

You think? I haven't test driven a 2.3 yet but seems like the majority it telling me not to do it and to stick with the 2.7 I have

The final product goes really well with the cactus gray. You did a great job!

Stay with the 2.7! It’s like a rocket, I loved the 7MT but you had to be above 2500 rpm’s before it would get going.

IMHO the Everglades wheels are the best OEM wheel. Base model, 7 speed, Everglades wheels, Badlands suspension (4 door), Crawltek bumpers

That's funny my 2.3 7mt has never been over 2400 and does just fine. It' all in your perception.

I have to agree. They look as close as possible to match the Badlands grill.

It's driving style. Some people in my urban area practically floor it going light to light. They would never be happy with my 2.3L manual. I have little hope of racing them on pavement and I don't care, it's not at all why I bought the Bronco.

If having a heavy foot and enjoying being first out of the stoplight gate and that sort of thing, I'd recommend V6 with requisite auto.
