  1. My wife went off road today!

    She was parked facing the bank, backed out, cranked the wheel to the right to leave--but not enough, apprently--and "never even saw" the big sidewalk there and just went and bounced over it. Yeah, it's a big curb. Never mind that this is OUR BANK. We are not unfamiliar with that parking lot...

  4. Top down forgives all sins

    I was running errands this morning in my wife's mall crawler lifted Explorer that drives like a '79 F150--but on a 75 degree day with enough clouds to cover the harsh sun, and a gentle breeze, putting the top down made me forget all about those things and put a big grin on my face. And that's...
  5. Don't be like Jeep owners

  6. Unrequited wave

    I was getting off the freeway today, and saw a Bronco turning the corner. I waved. He didn't return it, the bastige. Of course I was in my GTI, but still...
  7. TrackNGo--wheel driven track system

    https://trucktracks.com/Home-t/ The first thing I noticed was, available for all Jeeps but Bronco's not on the list. https://trucktracks.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/SUV-Compatible-with-trackngo.pdf It'd be fun to go up to snowmobile country with something like this but be in a nice warm cabin.
  8. Ford survey on sat radio and Connectivity Package

    Ford just sent me a survey asking me primarily about the Connectivity Package and satellite radio. Overall, the survey was horribly worded. They were asking about my thoughts about subscribing to these features, either independently or as a bundle, over various subscription terms, at various...
  9. An explanation of why to disable Auto Stop Start

    https://www.nhtsa.gov/?nhtsaId=25V164000 whoops. (OK, only 269 units, but still.)
  11. Any Lake Erie PA/NY folks here? Thanksgiving lake effect snow

    So, my idjit son didn't check the weather and on Friday he drove from MA over through NY on 90--and got caught in the snowstorm. He's currently stuck in Dunkirk while this calms down. He needs to go west, but of course 90 is closed for the duration. South is the only option. It looks like...
  12. Ride quality

    I've been riding in and driving the OBX (moar door, lifted Explorer, call it what you will) for a couple of months now, and have kept thinking "boy, this really is a truck". I drive VW GTI, and we came from minivans--most recently the most gorgeous, best driving minivan of all, the Pacifica...
  13. 'Tis the Halloween season

  14. If they're going to do auto start-stop with a manual override button, this is the way

    https://www.etsy.com/listing/1777722663/bronco-ford-key-holder-mount-anywhere-20?ga_order=most_relevant I see a couple comments about "keeps my wife from sticking her key in the cup holder". Maybe I've lived a sheltered life, but why is the key out in the first place? I leave mine in my...

    https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/4a-issues-ford-says-this-is-normal.101665/post-2350251 I observe all of the above when driving in Normal, Eco, or Sport on dry pavement.

  18. Soft top owners--would this make you buy a Jeep? One-Touch Power Top

    My wife loves her soft top, but I have to admit this is cool: I don't know that it would change my mind and make me buy a Jeep. But I do know that GM's flex tailgate would make me strongly consider a GM pickup over the competition, so that's what made me think about this.
