  1. Some brief towing action

    Helped my buddy Jim with his resto- boat. He is taking it to a competition this weekend. It's a 1960 15' Glastron converted to electric. He can run on plane for about 45 minutes at about 100 amps. Burst to 200 amps at about 18 knots using two big lithium batteries.
  2. Rear inverter install....

    In the winter, we like to plug in our ski boots to and from the slopes. Our heaters draw 13W each. Likely less than .25 amps. Are there recommendations for a cargo area inverter with 2 sockets? I'd like to do a proper installation rather than zip tying something to the rollbar. Maybe...
  3. Adams Advanced Ceramic 6 month review

    Overall: It's OK. When I received my Bronco in August, I did a full clay bar and polish. Normally, I would then put a couple of coats of Fleetwax on. With the new Bronco, I tried Adam's Advanced Ceramic. Supposedly lasts 12 to 18 months etc. It certainly was easy to apply/buff and...
  4. 2.7 4dr Badlands non SAS Delivery MPG

    So the ride from Granger to the mountains of Colorado was great. It's gonna be a perfect tripper. Most of the run from Iowa to Denver was posted at 75. I held with traffic at 80 to 81 mph on cruise control ECO for the vast majority of that. Roughly 6 hours averaging 19mpg. I had one 11...
  5. Mic top painting prep?

    Gents. For those few of you who have painted your tops. Please tell us what you learned regarding mold release wax, filling, sanding and priming? Or did you stay with the textured surface? I hope to paint mine white, once it arrives. Considering a 2 part poly paint like interlux.
  6. Tailgate shelf alternatives

    Here's a DIY solution. You could use alternative shelving material. I will likely lay up a piece of high density foam core composite, just because i like doing that lightweight chit. There are several aftermarket providers as well in the $70 to 200 range.... For the slide out shelf in the...
  7. Anti corrosion engineering...

    So Ford doesn't have a great record on this item. My early Broncos died of rust in the NE. I used many cans of HDMP on my f150 in 2013 trying to forestall rust (good so far...) I just picked up a 2003 f250 that has water absorbing foam in the fenderwells seemingly designed to accelerate...
  8. Pineapple Pizza

    I actually kind of like it, but this meme seemed prescient in our forum.
  9. Paint/finish...

    It would be nice to have a new approach to offroad paint/coatings that is more resistant to desert pinstriping, chipping etc. I see a lot of older offroad vehicles spraying on heavy polyurethane/ plastic dip/ wraps etc. What other options might Ford consider? A nice matte olive drab would be...
