Hello everyone!

I’ve been enjoying this forum for the last couple of years and finally decided to join after ordering and picking up my new 2026 Bronco. I placed my order on February 2 and took delivery on April 28.

I went with a 2-door Badlands Sasquatch, automatic, with the blackout and Lux packages, marine-grade vinyl seats, and the exterior in Avalanche Gray. From the factory/dealer I had quite a few extras added:

• HOSS 3.0 suspension
• Trailer tow package
• 7-year connectivity
• Body Armor + Aeroskin II hood molding
• PPF
• Brush guard
• Bronco 66 tire cover
• Floor liners & rear cargo protector
• Integrated keyless entry pad (B-pillar)
• Heavy-duty modular bumper

After spending a lot of time reading through reviews and threads here, I’ve already added a few mods:

1. Ceramic tint on the front windows
2. IAG V2 EZ-Steps
3. LED Factory Mart fog lights
4. Badlands Tufskinz door sills
5. Shaohao 12” screen protector
6. Mabett rear seat protectors/liners
7. Mabett glove box organizer
8. Aigmux hard-wired phone charger with magnetic wireless pad
9. IAG paracord grab handles

Still on my future list:

• Center console/rear vault
• Portable compressor (lots of good recommendations here—just need to pull the trigger)
• IAG mud flaps (but I’ve read there may be fitment issues with the 2026 rock rails—need to confirm)
• Basic recovery gear (straps, soft shackles, etc.)
• Tailgate table (IAG or Trailgater)
• IAG interior lighting

I’d also love to do the EZ 4x4 flip tops, but with the gunner’s hatch, I don't think it will work… EZ 4x4, if you’re listening, we need a workaround

My wife and I are loving it so far. We’ve already had the doors and freedom panels off several weekends and took it out to Talladega National Forest to get it properly muddy.

We’re hoping to make it to the Super Celebration in Townsend next year and eventually do the Bronco Off-Roadeo in Tennessee as well.

Looking forward to learning more from everyone here!

Jeff.

Talladega National Forest will get it properly muddy

Congrats on your nice looking rig. Didn't leave too many unchecked boxes on your order. Enjoy the ride no matter where it takes you.

Thanks! I’m hoping to retire next year, and my wife and I plan to travel in this thing while enjoying off-road trails, hiking, and camping throughout the good ol’ USA!

Looks like you've got a great Bronco to start with, and the mods list is already heading in the right direction. There are a lot of knowledgeable folks on here, so don't hesitate to ask questions or share updates as the build progresses. And of course, if you ever have any questions about lighting upgrades, feel free to tag us. We're always happy to help.

Looking forward to seeing what you do with it!

Planning on retiring next year also but the wife and I have already got a jumpstart on the camping thing
Our 2dr w/2.7 tows great.

That’s a great set up! We do the ground tent thing now but maybe in the future we can add a trailer. I love the color of your Bronco. I hated that Ford did not offer that color for 2026.
