I picked up my '24 BB (2dr, manual, Eruption Green Metallic) this past Saturday. Overnight Friday we received 1 1/2" of rain on already saturated ground in Aggieland, Texas, so I had to investigate the functionality of 4H and 4L within the first 2 hours, as my F-150 is 2wd and I had to park it in the driveway (gravel drive under mud, as I live in the country). I hadn't driven a standard in 5 years, despite owning more standards than automatics. The Bronco is the most forgiving, easy to drive manual I've ever driven...even more than the '91 Ford Ranger I learned to drive standard on. The Bronco, despite terrible factory tires (Bridgestone Duelers) was able to get back to solid ground from where my 183lb self sank standing, whilst leaving 7" ruts on the land. The next step is to shoe the Bronco in proper tires (BF Goodrich All Terrain KOs), but it definitely lives up to what folks here said they are. How have the first 100 miles been for other new Bronco folk? Let's hear your stories please.
