Ice Mountain 2.0 - now featuring an escapee (2/18/22)

[BroncoDr]

Got another snow storm today in Detroit and figured I'd swing by the mountain while getting some non-highway miles during my break in. I feel for everyone whose bronco is stuck in there.

Curious, usually when do you guys stop getting snow there?

Good news is they are working on them and people are getting line photos. That and new Broncos are in the line.

Just checking, in case my future order ends up there at least by the time my build happens it might not be sitting in snow.

With a little luck, no more will go out there.

I hope so! I really hope that the lot becomes empty soon. I feel so bad for everyone who have to deal with the fall out of supply chain issues.

Sitting in snow won’t hurt it. Driving it on the salted wet roadways is what you don’t want.

That's true!

Well, we are all dealing with the "fall out of supply chain issue" whether it be sitting in a parking lot or getting bumped week after week. It's all the same. Like @21Obx just said, a little snow doesn't hurt anything. There cars, they are meant to be outside.

Oh! I meant to mention, I was a little concerned with some of the reports with the soft top and snow, but I’ve so far been very happy with the soft top. It was pretty windy during the snow storm and I pretty much was out in the bronco the whole time. I never heard any wind coming through the seals and never had any snow find it’s way inside the car. The soft top also seems to insulate better than expected and I haven’t noticed the vehicle being any colder when parked outside in 15-20 degree weather for 8+ hours compared to previous vehicles I’ve owned (4 German sedans).

Keeping the back window clean is another issue though. And the wipers tended to ice up easily. Not sure if anyone has any tips for those issues
