  1. How Much Fuel When You Picked Up Your Bronco?

    It just occurred to me to wonder what to expect, when my Bronco finally arrives, how much fuel it is likely to have in it. It's slightly more than just an idle question. You see, my dealership is in an area that I perceive as being a very high-crime area, even by California standards, and...
  2. Who was sold on the Bronco before even seeing one in person?

    When I learned I had a big inheritance coming my way, my thoughts quickly turned to spending some of it on a vehicle more suitable for my current needs and profession than what I now have. I need something that can handle rough terrain, getting in and out of contraction sites, and that can...
  3. Ideas about travelling in groups…

    My thoughts on the subject are in a primitive form, not yet very well thought-out, but it seems like something worth opening a discussion. As we wait for our Bronco, estimated to arrive some time in mid 2022, @Seanette and I have had conversations about places that we (mostly me) would really...
  4. Recent Build & Price Issue…

    An issue has arisen on Ford's Build & Price feature of their web site. Anyone else seen it? Anyone know a workaround? In my signature, there is a link that, until recently, would lead to the build that I have on order...
  5. This tool is not at all exciting…

    In fact, it's BORING.
  6. How compact is the soft top when removed? Can I carry it inside my Bronco, with a hard top installed?

    So, I've ordered my Bronco with a soft top, to get it faster, but I really want a hard top. I live in Sacramento, and the two likely sources that I have identified for possible hard tops are in the Los Angeles area. I was thinking, rather than fuss with shipping, that I might just make a...
  7. Use of 4×4 modes on dry, non-slippery surfaces, and somewhat related questions about G.O.A.T. modes…

    Browsing through the PDF of the 2021 manual, I find this notice on page 183… Do not use four-wheel drive high or four-wheel drive low mode on dry, hard surfaced roads. Doing so can produce excessive noise, increase tire wear and can damage drive components. Four-wheel drive high or four-wheel...
  8. If I Bring My Wife To An Off-Roadeo…

    So, once I have my Bronco, it's free, or nearly so, for me to attend an Off-Roadeo; but if I bring my wife, @Seanette, that's an additional $395 fee for her. They provide Broncos for us to drive there, so we wouldn't; use our own. If we pay the $395 for my wife to come along, do we each get...
  9. Reaching Out To Dealerships — Any advice, or feedback on the approach I now plan to take?

    Somewhat related to this other thread of mine. I've composed the following text. I intend, very soon, to seek out the web sites of various dealerships within range of my home, and to send this message (possibly modified according to any advice I receive here in this thread) to them. I'm...
  10. Dealer Recommendations in/near Sacramento, California?

    So, with reservations/ordering supposed to open up for the 2022 model year in less than a week, I guess I'd better figure out choosing a dealership. I live in the southern part of Sacramento, near the border with Elk Grove. I've got the money in my bank account, right now, to pay for my...
  11. E85/FlexFuel conversion possible?

    Perhaps more as a personal quirk than for any practical reason, I have developed a strong affinity for using E85 in my Dodge Dart. At this time, it actually does make some practical sense, as although the Dart gets only about 80% of the MPG on E85 than what it gets on gasoline, E85 is currently...
  12. Bob Blaylock—Future Bronco Owner, I Hope.

    Looking to spend a good chunk of my recent inheritance on a Bronco. At this point, I know I need to wait for the 2022 model year to configure again, and hopefully get my reservation in., but here's how I configured my wished-for 2021. I'll have to wait and see what's changed for 2022, and...
