  1. 2.7L Ecoboost Engine Review by Heavy Duty Mechanic

    I've always gotten a 3.73 axle because the difference in fuel economy is minimal on an F-150 and is easily overcome by driving habits. My 22 Ranger consistently gets 23 mpg in winter months and 24.5-25 in Summer, 3.73 axle. Others differ, but it may be driving habits or local fuel.
  2. 3500 miles in 7 days. 'My Impressions" and Comparisons (from a 20+ Jeeps veteran)

    Glad you like it. I had ordered a 2dr Badlands 2.3 stick as well, but gave up the order and bought a Ranger, couldn't wait any longer. Same engine but auto. So far mileage has been positively surprising. I got 28 mpg hwy on a trip, average 20-21 around town, and 17 towing about 3,000 lbs. It's a...
  3. Actual Dealer Stock?

    I can get you one tomorrow for $15k over MSRP, 8 to choose from. When I bought my Ranger I explained how I waited 9 months, no build date, then gave up. My salesman pointed and said take your pick. Damn if he didn't have a Bronco almost exact to my build, including color.
  4. Is this normal on a vehicle with 350 miles?

    I canceled my Bronco order and bought a 22 Ranger. Built in same factory, but everything is coated in black epoxy paint, rear axle and driveshaft too. Maybe because they are rushing to push Broncos out? No trouble getting factory tow package or tech package either. Surface rust wouldn't bother...
  5. Ford Ranger Splash is back, will the Bronco get the limited-run colors as well?

    Well I gave up on my Bronco, and got a cyber orange splash Ranger, not as awesome off road as a Bronco, but it's a better fit for me. Towing is up to 7500 lbs, but I wish they offered the 7spd manual trans from the Bronco, not a fan of automatics, but I must admit, it works well especially...
  6. So my Bronco is due in ...

    Exactly, not today baby, they are trying to make every dime they can. The days of freebies and courtesy long gone.....
  7. If anybody wants to know how long It took for me to lose my patience.

    After 9 months and the realization that my small dealer had shit allocations, I gave up and bought a new Ranger at the end of the day, I need a new vehicle that will tow, at some point I had to be a realist. At least with the Ranger I got everything I wanted, to color and all, and more options...
  8. My Bronco has mis matched paint from the factory. (pic attached)

    I don't know why the Bronco's production has such issues, Ranger is made is made in the same plant, no complaints, mine is perfect. VB Badlands 2Dr is what I had on order since last Summer. Needing a tow vehicle forced my hand and I went with the Ranger. After a week I'm loving it.
  9. Diesel fuel filled in my 2.7 Bronco Badlands Sasquatch 😱

    Some nice upper cylinder lube! My diesel used to love 2 stroke oil, one ounce per gallon, every other tank. Glad it's fixed, expensive mistake.
  10. Percentage of People REFUSING Their Order?

    I patiently waited for my Bronco but finally relented and purchased a Ranger. I sold my pickup 6 months ago and not being able to tow is killing me. The dealer MD I purchased from had 6 Broncos on the lot of each with a ADM of $15k. No thanks, I'm good! I love the new Ranger, awesome truck.
  11. Cactus Gray Ranger in full sunshine

    I cancelled my Bronco, I bought a cactus gray Ranger crew with the Soash package and graphics, should have it next week, it's in transit. I couldn't wait anymore, I need a vehicle.
  12. 📄 New Bronco Orders Paused After March 7th, PPF Option Removed, HOSS 3.0 Package [Updated With Official Memo Document]

    They sent that memo because I canceled my order yesterday for my Bronco and bought a Ranger, lol. I can't play anymore I need a reliable vehicle to tow for deliveries, I'm not hot on travelling 1100 miles in a 1995 Aerostar pulling motorcycles on a trailer.
  13. Ford CEO Jim Farley on Bronco production & price protection [as of 2/14/22]

    The back door comment here is, if you ordered in 2021 you may possibly see your vehicle as a 2023 model. What about those who ordered in late 2021, like me in Aug 2021, 2024…?
  14. Windshield Replacement Price

    Nope, my business shares space in an automotive glass shop. They have to set targets front and rear of vehicle and literally move the windscreen while set in urethane to get the best position. Then do offsets through the scanner to calibrate. I was hoping my base Badlands wouldn't have this...
  15. Picked Up My Bronco - Epic Route 66 Road Trip

    That is a great trip, I did the whole length of 66 in my 2013 Boss 302, there were abandoned sections which would have been fun a Bronco!
  16. Ford sending Bronco backpack with off-road assistance kit to customers with undelivered 2021 orders

    Is this going to happen if your 21 order got converted to a 22?
  17. Disable Stop Start with Forscan?

    Thank you found the information drilled further
  18. Disable Stop Start with Forscan?

    Can Forscan disable the stop start feature?
  19. Dealer said Ford 'Previewed but didn't 'pull for Prod' my order??

    My truck is the same, except 2.3, manual trans, trailer and door keypad. Ordered 8/21 reordered as a 22 October 5th
  20. White Smoke Normal?

    Probably accumulated water in the exhaust from stop starts at Dirt Mountain. Take it out for a nice continual 50 mile trip to dry it out.
