My turn to post a bit of a review. I am 2400 miles in and am loving my 4dr Badlands 2.7L Sasquatch MGV Lux Soft top w/ tow.

My dealership Mac Haik Ford in Jackson, MS was good to deal with and stuck with MSRP.

On the road it is so smooth and a pleasure to drive. So much more responsive than the full size Nissan Titan I was used to.

I have enjoyed using the soft top and the various modes of open air feel it offers.

I am an off road newbie. My experience was previously limited to deer camp roads and some atv riding.

I reached my 1000 miles of break in en route to Hot Springs ORV Park in Arkansas. There a jeep group adopted me and took me on 2 Badge of Honor trails: Snake and Fun Run. It was a blast but my wife and daughter were ready for a break so did not attempt Rubicon Ridge. The jeepers kept wanting me to get stuck so they could take pictures while winching me. The bronco never gave them the chance. Any hiccups in performance were purely due to my inexperience.

A couple of weeks later I took it to Rendezvous in the Ozarks. It turned many heads, and wherever I went with it I had folks coming up complimenting it and asking questions. It was a great feeling. There it also performed well including going through the west camp mud bog... I mean road and doing a solo trail (Beech Grove loop) with a few technical parts. Nothing impressive to the experienced off roaders here, but it's capabilities gives me the confidence to do more and more and be comfortable with it.

Here are a few pics and a link to a YouTube channel some of you are familiar with that does a walk around of my bronco.

Congrats! It's really cool that you and your Bronco were featured in the video. I will be a newbie too, but I won't have the BL with the cameras. I hope it won't be too big of a problem for me. It's nice to see people hitting the trails. I hope you continue to have fun out there!

Nice rig, mud complements Area 51 so well. Glad you pulled it off, can't wait to see more of your adventures. Thumbs decidedly up.

Its quite the vehicle. Picked mine up last night and only have 35 miles on it so far, but man am I loving it. Your Area 51 looks killer!
