Hey @5280Bronco, I'm from Springs so I have a good grasp on the kind of weather you'll see. I'm running 32x11.5s on my lifted QX4 right now. I can tell you that in deep snow on the road, like when we had the bomb cyclone last year, the wider tires are a bit of a handful. All the taller patches...

I can totally understand an engine choice forcing the transmission, that will happen with the 2.7, totalling what a $4000 upgrade then? Perhaps that's what it will be in this case with the squatch and I just have wishful thinking. I just want the pricing of the upgrade on each trim to be...

I love that Bronco owners are sticking it to the CO Ford Stealerships. In my experience, they will all do whatever they can to take advantage of the enthusiast demand as they have with Raptor, Focus RS, GT350, new S550 Mustangs when they came out, even for all these vehicles that aren't limited...

Wow I really hope that is not the case. That would be almost dishonest from Ford to say that a Sasquatch package is $5000 on a base, when really it would have been $6,600 because of the forced transmission (like they haven't been dishonest to us before....). So then it's 2-fold cheaper on trims...

Totally following you there. I would agree that we wouldnt see the full retail price of the Auto taken off the squatch if you went manual, but your breakdown does confirm my thoughts that the Sasq package does get cheaper when the trim level already carries some of that equipment. I like the...

That was always the assumption. If Sasquatch was previously stated to be Auto-only, and the price was say $4500, then that $4500 included the Auto, it wasn't that you pay $4500 plus the $2000 for the Auto. You are right, that would then double-up some of the pricing of what Sasq offers on the...

Does anyone think that a Manual Sasquatch will be a less expensive option than the Sasquatch in Auto? Just assuming, if the Auto is a $2000 option, Sasquatch is $4500, will they allow a Manual Sasquatch for say $2500 or $3000?? That certainly makes the debate tougher on my end, whilst debating a...

I would say you have sound numbers there, that seems closer to reality. I personally wouldn't be worried about a lack of power in the 2.3. The K&N post is a good example, although slightly misleading because you will not gain 18 "PEAK" horsepower, you gain a max of 18HP somewhere "under the...

I wouldn't base your calculation on the "dated" 20% loss for auto and 15% loss for a manual. Manuals do have less DT loss than an auto, but the 10R80 has been noted to have historically low loss compared to other auto transmissions of the past, and certainly is closer to the 15% number than it...

Definitely in the camp of "Praying my current vehicle lasts" to the fullest extent with the winter/trail beater. 1998 QX4 with 212,000 miles. Currently have a stack of parts in the garage to fix the brakes, replacing all the ignition due to a bad miss I just got, a bad axle bearing and seal...

Okay yeah you can get pretty much anything that isn't carbon fiber for $3000. Equus is right tho, that's a lot of weight for a trail bike. My Neuron is a solid 5lbs lighter than that stock. I won't tell you it's an awful bike, but Id bet it's not the best bike for 3 grand. Look at pinkbike on...

Haha, yeah I totally understand I'll be last in line. I honestly wouldn't have a hope of affording it if I got mine spring/summer 2021, so waiting to end of 2021 seems more feasible anyway. But given the demand, I think if I want one come late 2021, I would be stuck ordering one anyway and...

I don't know too much about Haro for mtbs, more familiar back when I used to bmx. I would look otherwise for a few reasons but definitely depends on where you will ride. I think other brands are a safer call in terms of quality and more up to date on frame geometry, whereas Haro is just catching...

@Granger Ford This question may have the same answer as Buddys6g above, but wanted to confirm. What is the latest date that we can reserve the Bronco with you? I assume it's the October 31st date. I don't plan on being the first to get my order since I am waiting to reserve, but I want to check...

I think they are changing the names/consolidating of some of the trim levels for some of their bikes. What used to be the "AL 5.0" is now just the "Spectral 7." Link here: https://www.canyon.com/en-us/mountain-bikes/trail-bikes/spectral/spectral-7/2674.html?dwvar_2674_pv_rahmenfarbe=TQ%2FBK...

If still looking for suggestions on a trail bike, I would highly recommend looking at Canyon bikes. I got a Neuron AL7.0 this year, and was by far the best value on the market for the components it offers.

No I live next to Jerry in Springs, he started the club with Duk and Shane and a few other members when they split off from another local club 5 or so years ago. Agreed, it's a great community, so glad to be involved, even if Mopar people are their own breed. No worries if you can't make it...

That's hilarious. Honestly it's a great group of people, best car club I've ever been a part of. My neighbor was one of the original founders of the club, so once I moved in next door I've been involved off and on (regardless of what I'm driving that year, they always let me participate). We...

That's the real conundrum of my situation, I am one of the few that will actually use each of them for their intended useage. I hit the racetrack between once and twice a month during race season, seeing between 10 and 20 track days a year. On the 4x4 end, that isn't something I can live...

I have been running the debate with myself. I'm a sports car guy, so even if I had a Bronco, there's no way that I can go without something that I can go beat on at the track. Wondering if I should swap my "expensive" Mustang car payment with the Bronco, and then get a cheaper sports car of a...
