We love hearing that you're enjoying your Bronco, Lorne! Here's to many more memories with your ride. Thanks for sharing your journey so far with the forum.Clocked my first 5,000 miles on the odometer and first Oil Change.
It's been a fantastic ride so far!

Hey David, Thanks for reaching out and your kind words! It's just been a great experience for me so far. I found myself looking back at it the other day in the parking lot and it's just a killer design. I have the mid package vs the Lux as I don't think the Lux was available on the Big Bend Trim for 24. I didn't want cloth or leather seats. The Marine Grade Vinyl suits me just fine. I originally had Cactus Gray on my order last year; then I saw one at Elkhart Lake and was not impressed. My wife really wanted me to go with the Azure Gray and I have not regretted it.Well this has been a great read!
We have almost the same Bronco and have done a few of the same mods so I was very interested in seeing everything else you've done.
The big differences, I went manual, and I just have the mid-upgrade package? You went Lux? I'm not positive. But super to see what you did, what worked well, what you had issues with, etc.
I was laughing to myself at your love of the color and the wheels. I had the almost exact same reactions. Loooove that azure gray, and yes, really thought I was going to regret not getting the Sasquatch package, but those wheels look so great. I did put the Borne Offroad spacers on, just allowing the tires to peak out slightly past the fenders and am super happy with that upgrade. Makes everything feel just a tiny bit more stable.
You really have to get the black horse for the back to match your Bronco badges on the sides! Haha. Looks great with the azure gray. I got the same license plate holder as you and got the retro plates we have here in California that are black with yellow lettering. I put the amber diode dynamic fog lights in to replace the factory ones, and the AuxBeam ditch lights up next to the mirrors. They have a yellow cover, so all that looks great with the license plate.
Anyway, hope you continue this thread. Thanks!
I feel like I should have started journal when I first ordered mine like you did. Maybe I'll just jump in with everything I've done so far. And weirdly, my sister wants to move to Petaluma! haha.
