Bronco is an off-road sports car. It's fun and peppy and my first choice to drive. It's a billy goat off-road even with my now bald big bend stock tires going through slick clay mud holes (70k on them, opt for the rear locker). However it's not really great at anything else but looking sexy...
I have 2021 , 2.3 with 7MT about to hit 60K. Other than oil changes I've had it in the shop for warranty work on the soft top, and the known transfer case gravel noise when cold. My Bronco sat the entire summer on the lot while they figured out how to rebuild the transfer case. It didn't...
Well... This is interesting and contradicts what Ford told us at Bronco Off-Roadeo.
Our group was told that when tooling around on trails to always have it in 4-low unless you were on a better dirt road where you needed 4-Hi speeds.
The reasoning was when you are in the right gear, there is...
Thoughts on what I see here? Hmmm...
- Basics: Keep your wheels on the high spots and thumbs out of the steering wheel.
- Too much air pressure and throttle. Spinning and skipping just breaks stuff. Seriously, I've walked up trails like that in a 2wd 80's Toyota. You're eye will get more...
Drive it a couple months and let it tell you what it needs. You're already elite. Blindly slapping crap on because somebody says it's cool is for Jeep owners.
Auto! Oh how annoying! :)
Thanks for clarification. That makes sense.
Edit: I also want to say, for those auto trans owners wondering, even with my complaints about not being able to push start it, and the gravel rumble on cold start, the manual trans is incredibly enjoyable to drive...
Huh? I can blip the throttle on downshifts and not use the clutch and I don't have the Performance tune. Just have to use your ears and listen to the engine pitch.
Oh yeah! This too. One of the reasons I bought a manual trans was so it could be push started. They totally F'd that up for us. Thus rolling backwards trying to start, not gonna happen.
I don't think that would have mattered. Manual trans owner here, and serious concerns.
Parking brake probably would not have helped you. I've rolled up to a gate multiple times where I've pulled the parking brake a bit prematurely at around 1mph and the thing just chatters at me and fails to...
4H or 4Lo on Highway dry or wet? Absolutely not. Full coverage of snow or ice? Sure. If its partial, No, unless just needed to get started.
Now if I had an Automatic with 4A ? Absolutely Yes. That Hi tech system was developed by Land Rover when Ford owned them. It engages when...
Interesting. Had the truck a year and a half and learned something new. Sure enough, lock, walk fob into house and come back and doesn't unlock. Thanks.
I'm not sure I really understand the security on these. Theoretically this is to keep your stuff safe like a trunk when the top is down, or in lieu of a hard top, right? What is to keep a person from just clicking the unlock button on the door and then just opening up the tailgate. Am I...
Cutting into Bronco sales would actually give them relief. They can't even produce enough Broncos to meet sales and they don't even advertise them. Silly Ford.
I had the worst experience with that company than any other business in my life. My Expedition will never be the same. I will never use Safelite again, and advise everyone I know to avoid them as well. Absolute worst techs that are allowed to touch a customers vehicle, but seeing this makes...
All, The failure to apply discount code AND use your points is a Browser issue (well, actually a web developer issue at Ford).
I found that the transaction would not apply the discount in the total, even though it was showing marked next to the item when using Mozilla Firefox.
Switched to...
I would try a different service dept/dealer and see what they find. I wouldn't put it past a car dealer to play some shenanigans so you'll sell it back to them, trade in, lemon law, or otherwise so they can get a bigger payday.
