  1. Waited 654 days to get her...only to have her taken away by someone else's inability to drive 3 weeks later

    Driving 75MPH down a 2 lane highway after dark, a deer appeared on the side of the road and started to cross. I thought I could clear him by swerving, since he wasn't moving very fast. I thought I was by her when I felt and heard a big thump. When I was able to pull over after a couple miles...
  2. Lifting 2 door hardtop with power winch - how to balance top?

    I have installed a small power winch in the ceiling of my garage in order to easily remove my 2 door hard top. I put a strap on each side of the top from front to back. When I lift the top, if it is not perfectly balanced the straps slide a bit, making the top tilt upwards or downwards on the...

    6/27 blend date, 7/2 ship date. ETA has been pushed all over. Yesterday it was 8/6-8/11. I called Bob Utter. They told me they had one spreadsheet showing 8/11 and another showing 8/19. I checked this morning and Ford updated my ETA to 8/12-8/18. I guess it will be next week...hopefully. Have...

    Happy Birthday to my Bronco. It is one month old today. Unfortunately, it is no closer to being home than it was a month ago. Ford has no shipping information as of yesterday. Shipping estimate 7/26 - 8/1. Ford tells me that is still the estimated date. We had ice mountain, then dirt...
  11. [SHUT DOWN] 🔎 Bronco Ordertrack App -- Thank you!

    Does anyone know if the ordertracker.app developed andlrso automatically updates with the rail and convey information. I'm guessing it doesn't, seeing that everyone is calling ford. Even if it doesn't, I still like the app

    7/26 - 8/1 estimated delivery. As of yesterday, Ford told me they had no rail car information.
  14. Off-Rodeo Failure: No Manual Broncos Available

    They had both 2 doors and MT when I did the event in Austin’ about a year ago. I was able to drive both the 2D and the 4D. I can imagine they had issues with people tearing up the clutch on the MT. They only have so many broncos and having some out of service would be both expensive and a...
  15. Vehicle Semiconductor Chips 101

    The biggest semiconductor manufacturer in the world is actually TSMC in Taiwan. But, they are only a manufacturing company. Fabs cost billions of dollars, so very few companies can build their own factories. Smaller companies design the chips and contract TSMC to build them. The chips that...
  16. Thinking of buying a R-Pod 189 to tow with my Bronco

    From experience, I can tell you that tongue weight is a big deal. I pulled my relatively small rv with an f-150 with 2.7L ecoboost. I use a leveling hitch and do everything right. But, my tongue weight is at the limit. It did just fine until I pulled it in the rain. I found driving on the...
  17. Extensive writeup: My Bronco Off-Roadeo experience with some photos and videos on 7/3-7/4

    I just finished the Off Rodeo today. I have absolutely no experience off-roading. You may ask why I am buying a Bronco. I love the outdoors. I have had motorcycles, a 350Z convertible and now a Lexus convertible. It wasn't the off road capability the brought me to this point, but the ability...

    I was at Mac Haik yesterday. They told me that they had their first two come. The salesman told me that a guy bought one for each of his sons. They were gone by the time I got there.

    Duane Harris is the General Manager at Mac Haik. I would suggest you talk to him. I just ordered an F-250 through Mac Haik. I had issues with two other dealers locally when trying to place an order. I have bought 5 vehicles (now 6) through them, but I did order my Bronco through Bob Utter.
  20. Dealer laughed in my face

    I ordered my Bronco through a dealer 250 miles from my home in order to get a better deal. I am looking to order a custom F-250 (knowing the long lead time). I have contacted this dealer to see what can be done to assist. From a lower margin Bronco, they may win business on a high price truck...
