  1. 2.3L EcoBoost® I-4 Engine vs 2.7L EcoBoost® V6 Engine... not sure which one?

    Both engines very good, imo. Have and had 2.3 and earlier variants. Stick! 2.3 more economical. One of our boys had the '21 2.7 and stick--no problems, but not economical....enjoy!

  4. THEY WONT INSTALL THE 285/75R16 TIRE FOR MY BASE BRONCO

    Safety FIRST ! Cheaper @ places like this because often the tire(s) they feature are. perhaps(?), "built to hit a store's 'price-point'" ...maybe?

  6. Road Trip possible issues?

    4000 miles on our's; only issue was the TSB tranny--fixed(?) after 2 month wait for parts. So far, so good. Have Fun--Enjoy the 'OPEN' Road! Go "topless", perhaps.....Jeeps/Broncos='nuthin' like 'em.....imo. Prefer Bronco. Our Jeep was more primitive, but, durable mechanically until the rust...
  7. Oil temp gauge not water temp up to 234 degrees?

    My personal opinion (directed to Ford heirarchy, primarily) is that idiot warning light(s)/psuedo 'gauges'= bad. Real, Denso/Stewart-Warner, et al 'real' gauges= good.
  8. Thoughts on buying a manual now?

    Yeh. We would have passed on ou '22 if the stick wasn't available......we went for the nostalgia high ......2dr/stick.....cheap but, fun...

  10. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    I/we (wife's Bronco) had the problem; now fixed (after almost 2 months). No problems so far. You can't miss/ignore the "sound".....good luck. Make them FIX it!
  11. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    Yes, and, No. See my post today. Evidently both new tranny and parts(both synchronizers) arrived simultaneously. Had our tranny already out, put in new parts, seems ok. No grinding, rattling on cold/o/n idle........we have extended warranty, so............
  12. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    We feel/felt your pain. almost 2 months before we got confirm/TSB and part(s) ordered. Ford authorized new tranny due to inability of part not yet available; I called to check on status=surprise=new tranny came in, so did parts(5/6th gear synchronizers-which came out in "2 pieces-not one piece"...

    Stock: 2dr base, 2.3, stick (long wait for tranny parts of 2 months over/TSB fix). No mods. Did buy tube doors so wife can go doorless & topless. Nothing El$e.....current mileage 2,800.
  14. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    Our '22 base 2 dr stick has 2800 miles on; wife drives mostly. I saw the posts/TSB, etc., we both heard grinding/rattling sounds, took in Feb. 12. Dealer ordered parts per TSB; finally all parts were on hand this past week; some issue with "old synchronizers opposed to new (2 parts vs 1...
  15. Anyone with a 2 door regret not going 4 doors?

    Never considered a 4 door!. The original issue had only 2 doors. We went with the original, sporty look. If we wanted a 4 door we could have bought an Xploer, etc. 2 or 4 drs, u ain't gonna haul much; easy in/ez out backs seats would be a great option to enable more back space, but, this...

    Glad u like it; hope your manual tranny doesn't end up with the TSB fix like mine, otherwise, we're very happy, with ours (except tranny issue)>

  20. Is your 7MT manual transmission making grinding / scraping noise too? Spreadsheet, Video and all resources for rotational scraping noise in the 7MT's

    Yes. Not yet anyway; I just noticed mine yesterday a.m. after sitting overbite (warm garage) so noise(s)/symptoms not as pronounced? Still call dealer---noises in trannys like these foretell bigger problems down the road. FORD needs to address the issue NOW---NOT f'n later.....as usual.
