I really like mine !
My 37s are D loads so may not answer your question 100%. I Guess somebody had to be the first to attempt 37s on the base model 2.3. Around town I drive regular mode/ sometimes eco. The MPG on the dash says 16.7, My JL wrangler on 37s the dash averaged 16-16.5. On the highway regular is fine, but I will usually run sport mode just for get up and go. The bronco is NO race car by any means. I will get to where I am going but wont be setting any land speed records. I also run 93 octane fuel, have never run anything less so I can not compare .

Nice Bronco
I absolutely love it. Only regret is not getting the aux switches. The cloth seats are very comfortable.
Thank you. I pulled the trigger and have the 37s on..not too bad just a lil sluggish in deepsand still fairly snappy around town.My 37s are D loads so may not answer your question 100%.

I've got 5K+ on my 35s with a 2.7/auto and stock gears and YES, you do feel a little drop in power and you do see a drop in MPGs, but this thing still has a ton of GO. I don't hesitate pulling out into traffic and mashing the go pedal is still a lot of fun.
I've run both on 2.3 no probs power is good either set up. the 295s allow you to keep all crash bars on stock wheels +55 offset...
Small aside, when my front panels are on I use the hook switch lever for them to hold my garage door opener. It actually works perfectly.
Agreed. When I saw my window sticker say 47k I was shocked. Lucking I had private offers and the granger discount, otherwise I probably wouldn't have a Bronco...I can't believe the base Sasquatch with the V6 is now close to $48K. Someone ordered my Bronco with the Sas, V6, Auto, aux switches, hoop steps, mod bumper and brush guard. I just did a wheel/tire swap to true 35's.
