It was time for a new grocery getter/run to the big city mobile so we bought a new 2023 Ford Explorer at a decent discount. We had a 2013 Explorer which I never liked. it was a great car, never caused a problem and did everything we asked of it I just never liked it. I think it was the fwd...

While traveling moderate to rough trails (steep, washed out , rocky) trails in Arizona this past week I experienced the parking brake sticking on after auto applying on a steep grade when shifted to park. The owners manual states the brake will apply when shifted to park on a steep grade, then...

Has anybody bought or seen these in person? Thoughts? I'm thinking they might look good on my A51 and offer some rock/brush protection.

Western Colorado (5) Big Bend 255/75x17 Bridgestone Duelers, $200, under 10k miles.

For years I've run slightly larger than stock Load Range E tires on my mid size 4x4's and trucks for puncture resistance. I've run 32 to 35 psi, assuming with the larger size and higher LR I should run less air to get equivalent load carrying ability and ride. I've never had an issue, tires...

I've been nearly over the moon happy with my 2 month old Bronco, now I have found perfection. First I schooled my dealer on how to activate the 20K extra FordPass points. Second, the dome light on the rollbar has never worked, like a pebble in my shoe slightly annoying. The idea of making a...

UPDATE: etrailer has this one which has an extension to clear spare tire Drawtite brand $123 I'm beginning my "If Ford won't build it I will" Bronco build I received my after market hitch today, Curt 13493, 350/3500 lb, same design, layout and capacity as Ford Factory hitch. This hitch...

Be careful out there! San Miguel County Sheriff - Posts | Facebook There is lots of arm chairing on the FB Post, suffice it to say "A man's gotta know his limitations"

A wildland fire started near Moab yesterday. Initial reports are that it started from a campfire. Winds were crazy here yesterday, whether fire bans are in effect or not, use your brain. Be careful out there!!!

I'm not a newb to off road driving, but have questions about using available tech to full advantage. All Broncos have a HERO switch to disable Traction Control, my question is 'When is it advisable to disable Traction Control ? in which off road situations'? In mud and deep snow wheel spin can...

Edmunds posted an article comparing off road vehicles for 2021, but lists the Bronco as a 2022 model. Do they know something we don't, but many have suspected, or is it just a journalistic faux pas? Edmunds: The top off-road vehicles for 2021 - ABC News (go.com)

I've enjoyed watching the Ultimate Black Diamond Non-Sasquatch pics thread but being a non Sas Big Bend guy I thought I's shoot this out there. I've liked the VB BB on the southern tour, but haven't saved any photos.

I went to the Bronco show in Moab today and thought I'd share what I have. Not much I'm sorry, but I was so enamored with the whole thing I didn't get many and quality is generally lacking. They had half a dozen Broncos they were giving rides in, all Sas'd except one Badlands. They had maybe...

My son's vehicle was unavailable so he barrowed my F250 6.2 liter for a three month work assignment in North Carolina. While there the truck became due for an oil change, he took it to the local Valvoline quick lube.. I always do my own work, but figured any oil change was better than none. So...

Browsing the axle availability chart (the most valuable thing from the build sheets) I noticed FAD is on some combos and not others. It's obvious that those with Advanced 4x4 don't have it (Sasquatch and select others) which makes sense. But some, specifically those with 4.27 gears (optioned...

Do any Colorado guys have a line on good deals? Any Colorado dealers discounting from MSRP? The old X Plan thread lists several Colorado dealers honoring X Plan (including 2 on the Western Slope), but that's irrelevant now since Ford has nixed X Plan. My dealer has said MSRP, no dealer fees...

I've read somewhere that the Bronco will have a "Digital Owners Manual". Does this mean it will be accessible from the on board screen? On line? No printed version? Does anyone have experience with this on other Ford products? One of my pleasures is sitting on the couch for a couple evenings...

In order to objectify a very subjective decision I've come up with a spread sheet to analyze trim level and option selection. First I input the trim and basic build info (Base Sasquatch, BB Manual etc) as well as the trim MSRP. Then I entered all the options that were important to me and...
