When in the desert sand I need 4 full lockers . It's worth every penny even on resale .Similar. I’m back and forth on squatching my OB. I won’t be doing anything too extreme here in New England and the decreased MPG isn’t anything I want. Squatch sure looks good though.
I’m one of the Ford Team Bronco Ambassadors. Personally I’m a heavy off-roader and cross country travel/adventure guy. Ford has temporarily provided me this unit to use for my adventures. Basically my objective is to show people you DO NOT need to buy a Sasquatch or Badlands for most adventures. While those thing obviously grant you more capabilities the OBX with a decent tire will get you to basically anything for most adventures. All you need is gas and pick safe lines. I’ll be using a Wildtrack next and will take things to another level. Hope that answered your questionThat's livin the dream: buy a ultra capable vehicle and take it all over the country. I hope to make some trips half as cool as what you've done.
I have a question: knowing you were doing a bunch of traveling in the Bronco, what made you choose the Outer Banks?
I have heard of the issue. I have not spoke to anyone about it yet. Hope to investigate this further soon though.Thanks for your post. Given your relationship with Ford have you heard anything from the team about the 2.7L engines reliability concerns? Im curious to learn if Ford is activity following this topic.
I’m headed to King of the hammers with it in a couple days (2400 miles) towing a 3000lb trailer. My goal is to film and edit the review and full towing impressions videos once I get there.When does the video come out?
That's it. You get the biscuit! Little Guy trailer? Pix please.This stock Outerbanks that I’ve been using just rolled over 20,000 miles on my way home to Texas from Colorado. I want to do a full 20k review but also answer any questions that you guys have? So fire away I’ll answer them in a video and plug who asked them. For reference this stock OBX has been to Whistler BC, California, Utah, South Padre Island Texas, and ran some of the most iconic things in the nation like Top of the world, Hells Revenge, Black Bear Pass, and more. It’s also towed a 3000 lb trailer for about 2000 miles and will be towing it again 2400 to King of the Hammers in Johnson Valley California.
Cool! I’m concerned with pulling a similar travel trailer up to the mountains. Passing semis while avoiding the sports car blazin’ past me up interstateI’m headed to King of the hammers with it in a couple days (2400 miles) towing a 3000lb trailer. My goal is to film and edit the review and full towing impressions videos once I get there.
I have 7k on my OBX and everything is running well so far.As a 2.3 he's saying it wouldn't, couldn't, but postulating that if it were a 2.7 then it would not have gone over 3000.
Which is total BS
For you and many others it seems so. I'm not going to be in deep sand though.When in the desert sand I need 4 full lockers . It's worth every penny even on resale .
.. I'm in So Cal. ,the desert is my playground . Hit some powdered sand once in 29 palms and it was easy to get stuck unless you keep your speed up and have the right tires . It was not even like beach sand but more like powdered sugar .For you and many others it seems so. I'm not going to be in deep sand though.
Sounds amazing. Does that get into anything and do damage?.. I'm in So Cal. ,the desert is my playground . Hit some powdered sand once in 29 palms and it was easy to get stuck unless you keep your speed up and have the right tires . It was not even like beach sand but more like powdered sugar .
