Already a member although don't get to participate much cause I'm in the car business and work most weekends. I did meet several members at the Broncos and brews event in New bern. Love your build especially the velocity blue although I might be a little biased.

Newer pic showing how the modified bash plate looks (but taken right before I installed the ditch lights). I really like it over the stock plastic one. That one always gave me bull-dog vibes how it comes up more in the center like it has an underbite

Santa (aka husband) thinks the 2.7 is a bit too slow, so he got me a JB4 for Christmas. S/B installing soon.

1/11 = Build day anniversary. Happy 2 Year Birthday to Blu!
22,200 miles when I pulled into the service department today (interesting mileage given the circumstances). Had an appointment for it's 5th oil change/tire rotation, air filter replacement & got confirmation that my front camera (works intermittently) & window switches (soft touch crumbling) will be replaced & covered under warranty.

Detailed the Bronco the other day, inside & out, then decided to try the blue on the grill again... Cut some vinyl to go over the top of the black "Bronco" letter covers. The grill was just looking too flat in all black.
Kind of wanting to change things up, but not sure what...

I've been "in the market" for a phone holder for awhile. Couldn't decide on exactly what setup I wanted. With the JB4 being installed soon, I wanted something to hold my phone where It was in a good space visually, in order to view the JB4 app/gauges when I want to. I settled on the 67 Designs Bronco Half Rail . I like the ability to add accessories later if I decide to, but I know I did not need a full rail setup.
Initial impressions - It appears to be very well made & sturdy. I was hesitant to get the grabby phone holder over the magnetic mount since I've had issues with cheaper versions in the past. This phone isn't setup for the mag mounts so I tested out the universal mount. It is very tight fitting & sturdy. The aluminum structure is much higher quality than plastic versions. My phone didn't budge at all driving. Overall I am very happy with it. Very nice product & worth the more premium price point.

Installed the JB4 yesterday. Very easy install. App/software/hardware all came together seamlessly. Bluetooth connectivity was quick & painless.
Map 1 provides a noticeable increase in performance (not mind blowing, but noticeable). Map 2 is similar with a bit more top end. I intend to leave it there for now. I always run 93, no matter what, so technically could use Map 3 according to their literature (Intended for 93 and/or modified or E30 mixtures) but it is a big bump in torque over Map 2 (another 10 hp & 48ft lbs) and I don't need that. I'm not trying to max out performance, just get a lil bump. Map 1 & 2 are helpful when it comes to merging on the highway or other instances you want the Bronco to get out of it's own way a bit more effectively.
I love the feature where you can set the Maps to the drive modes. I currently set it up as:
Eco, Slippery, Mud/Ruts, Sand - Map 0 (JB4 not engaged)
Normal- Map 1
Sport - Map 2
I run in normal 95% of the time. When I'm feeling frisky I'll put it in sport mode, so Map 2 is fitting for these instances.
Today I discovered the gauge customizing, so they are now blue, but a pic from yesterday. I appreciate the app interface and the ability to view additional parameters, log & view codes, etc.

JB4 update - Have to give credit where credit is due! Burger Motorsports/Terry Burger have been fantastic with reviewing logs & quick communication to make sure the B is running properly. When the tuner himself emails you back at 9:30 on a Sunday night, you know he is committed to his product & his customers.
Everything has been functioning seamlessly as well. So far quite happy!
