I was in normal GOAT mode, rear locker was not engaged. No other symptoms, nothing unusual going on. I did stall once or twice moving from a stop on a steep grade--embarrassing but I was trying not to give the tranny too much juice in case I'd spin the wheels or lurch forward too fast. There was...

Hey gents, got a question. I picked up my Big Bend 4MT a couple weeks ago and am currently on a pretty long family trip to Appalachia. The air BnB we are staying at is on the side of a mountain and the dirt road to get to it is frankly a bit ridiculous in places, so I have been engaging the 4WD...

50mph? For that speed, it looks to have held up quite well! I watched a guy run a red in front of me and t-bone a dude last year. Speed was about 40mph, sedan on sedan. The car that got t-boned looked like the driver's side door just caved in completely, I was certain I was going to find a dead...

Sounds like I should be fine with the stock Duelers then. The Falken Wildpeaks, Mickey Thompson Baja Boss, and the Cooper AT3 all sounds fine. Any input on the difference in off-road performance between stock tires and something like those? Any tires I specifically should avoid? From some of...

Which Coopers? I used to live near a Cooper tire plant and am fond of the company so wouldn't mind picking up a pair. Thanks for the replies y'all.

Hey guys, I'm expecting my Big Bend to get here sometime in February and am curious about upgrading the tires. I've been reading old posts on the forum non-stop trying to get spun up to speed on this vehicle, its capabilities, and upgrades near and far, but I really haven't got a clue on tires...

To expand a bit on that and maybe drift slightly off topic, I think getting out into the woods is a sacred privilege, but too many people abuse it by making it unpleasant for the rest of us and causing environmental damage. I was raised to leave my campsite looking better than how I found it...

Couldn't agree more. This is my first 4WD but I've been hiking and backpacking since before I could read, and hunting for years deep in shit nobody hikes into. When I started researching off-roading and saw videos of convoy lines of people in their $80k trucks, I just cringed. Not at all what I...

What kind of MPG change did you see going from the stock 32's? I was looking at those tires for my Big Bend which I anticipate arriving in February.

34, 4 kids, 4 door.

Do we have consensus on filters/intakes? Can you get filtration equivalent or superior to OEM while improving performance? The S&B sounds great. Anyone mess with a snorkel?

Thanks bro, I'm excited and glad it's coming way earlier than expected. Feels good to stick with Ford, I was looking at the new Tacoma but I'm still driving a Focus which was my first car and it has been stellar for 11 years, grandpa died on the job at Ford, and I lived in Detroit for years...

Happy news--the dealership was able to get it added onto the build. I confirmed on Ford's website. Really happy with this dealership.

A week before production haha. Thanks bro! I don't like awkward conversations with salespeople. I hope they recognize they messed up and don't give me a hard time about cancelling or reordering and honoring the price match.

Man, I hope so. I don't mind if production gets pushed a month or two to the right, but I will mind if they no longer want to price match since that means I will have missed a good deal because I didn't want to screw the dealership and leave them with a truck they ordered for me (which I of...

Nope. I'm overseas and was talking to a dealership near my home as well as Military Auto Source. The dealership ordered my Bronco before getting any confirmation from me, it rubbed me the wrong way as I still wanted to negotiate a price between the two. They ultimately agreed to price match MAS...

Hey guys, any chance of modifying an order once it's received a VIN and has a production date scheduled? My dealer didn't add the locking rear differential to my Bronco order. They placed the order 17 November, it was scheduled with a VIN on 9 December for production on 22 January. This is a big...

Dual tops. Maybe it's worded differently but I didn't even see a Bestop option. I also got confirmation the next day. Military Autosource told me to expect my Bronco in late May unless there are delays, but the order was placed by the Ford dealership. MAS said they talk to Ford directly. A...

MAS got back to me and said this is what Ford sent them about the tow package. " As for the Trailer Towing Package – that’s only available as an after-delivery item as well. Trailer Sway Control does come standard as does a Trailer Tow Prep Pack (different from the Trailer Tow Package from...

Hey guys, got a few questions. I'm trying to place an order through Military Autosource while overseas (I can't go to or call any dealers) and they're telling me they didn't see the tow package as an option. Is this something I can get later, and if so would it be marked up? I'm asking them to...
