  1. Sedona AZ - Broken Arrow in Bronco Big Bend

    There are a few spots to add difficulty if one wishes. The very top of the staircase demands choosing the correct left line unless you have a lot of wheel travel and clearance. Descending that obstacle is less about crawling down and more about sliding.
  2. Air down tires for high speed off-roading?

    I run 15psi on deep sand washes. I found that the increase in traction throttle on made it more stable.
  3. Cold 10 Speed Transmission Reverse to Drive Engages Slowly...

    I have not noted that. Though I generally end up with a few minutes of warmup waiting on wife and/or kids.
  4. Cold 10 Speed Transmission Reverse to Drive Engages Slowly...

    What is this "cold" of which you speak. :LOL: Sorry, Tucson joke. Do you mean cold outside, if so, how cold? Or is this the vehicle not warmed up yet?
  5. Back to the drawing board - can’t use ceiling for top hoist system?

    Well said. To add a bit more. If you place the 4x4s near a truss panel point you'll load the panel point and the force vectoring of the truss will function as designed.
  6. Back to the drawing board - can’t use ceiling for top hoist system?

    Not all roof trusses are equal. There are actually quite a number of criteria that go into the design and manufacturing. Theoretically a Fink truss of that type could be a tension only lower chord, meaning it is not intended for storage loads, unless the lower chord were designed with an assumed...
  7. Bronco started by ITSELF!

    Somebody had to say it. :ROFLMAO:
  8. Spider Lake and Iron Range OHV Trails (Minnesota) Trip

    I was just looking at this pic on CC again. That's gotta be a website header or wallpaper or something. The rig looks great as always.
  9. Test Drive question for Wildtrak owners

    If you simply mat it from idle and expect immediate acceleration you'll be disappointed. That's true of all turbo engines, it's also true of most N/A engines other than the high power, high performance ones. It's always been the case that you can either build RPMs sitting still in neutral or...
  10. Train carrying new Fords derails in Arizona

    Ya, I looked at the rail routes after I said that and realized the wreck happened less than a mile from the turn towards the valley. So it could have been headed south.
  11. Train carrying new Fords derails in Arizona

    Weirdly, this happened about three miles from where KC Hilites are made.
  12. Train carrying new Fords derails in Arizona

    This was just east of Williams, west of Flag and headed west. Not bound for ElMirage. These were headed to SoCal.
  13. What’s wrong with these pics?

    100% QC is an impossibility, and if you look over a very large demographic you're bound to find some very improbable errors. We are all human, we all make error, what defines us is how we go about dealing with those errors. My guess is if you take it back to the dealer and make note of the...
  14. 2023 Badlands dangerous unintended acceleration while in four-wheel-drive low

    I just experienced a similar condition. But this was in 4L and at a complete stop in D while easing brake pressure. Only in normal mode, did not do in in mud/ruts. Once at a nose down attitude, once on level ground, third was at at a fairly steep upward angle. Only lasted for maybe two heartbeats.
  15. Why does badlands have the Baja goat mode if it was not designed for high speed off-roading? (No HOSS 3.0)?

    It's true that there are no free lunches. But, my instincts are that if you remain on loose surfaces the risks of using Baja mode should be fairly low. Caveat; racing and driving like you're racing is always hard on a vehicle no matter what mode you're in. Jumping in particular is going to be...
  16. Newbie Wildtrak Questions

    It does not, you need to order the High or Lux package to get all of the sensors, the type of bumper is irrelevant. I could be mistaken, but, I believe you can have a dealer order the mirror caps and door handles as service parts.
  17. Newbie Wildtrak Questions

    21 Wildtrak has body color mirror caps and handles. They changed that for 22 didn't they?
  18. Can you recommend a good seat cover in the heat?

    With leather, never get in the car hot wearing shorts.
  19. Bronco Rollover on Pritchett Canyon Moab

    This guy is like Jeremy Clarkson in a Reliant Robin.
  20. It was bound to happen... angry face Bronco

    Well, that would be better than a tarted up Tahoe. :ROFLMAO:
