Hey all,

Yesterday I finally took delivery on my Badlands and I am in love!

As we were at the dealer they told my wife about the great lease deal on the Mach E as we were already considering one for her as she has an outback averaging about 23mpg - so she went ahead and put in an order!

Gotta balance out the bad MPG on the bronco with an Electric!

About to have two horses in the garage! Anyone else doing the same?

Yep! I had seen the 33's in person and it totally solidified my decision - plus I really love the optional wheels over the stock!

I want to like the Mach-E, but the charge rate even with a 240V outlet is still really long, and my commute is over 30 miles each way.

We also only have 200A service to the house, so there really isn't room for another 40A breaker on the box.

Those pictures are why I couldn't do CG. I would go into an event leaving a light green Bronco in the parking lot and come back to trying to find a light grey Bronco while half-drunk.

I actually am currently driving a Mach-e as an interim vehicle while I wait for my bronco. Going to be hard to go back to gas, really want an electric bronco. Mach-e is great.

I get about 25 miles an hour charge. 60 miles a day is nothing. Plug it in once every couple days overnight. Done. You would spend less time on that than driving to a gas station.

Ford claims 20 miles per hour charging at 240V. Ford is good about under-promising on their electrical stuff, so I would believe you get 24-25 miles worth per hour.

Still the issue of the breaker panel.

Seems like a really good pairing. While we do like it, the Mach E is a little pricy for us but I'd be on board with my wife getting a hybrid Maverick.

No lift at all? I'm also a Badlands (11/29 Build), and this seems a bit taller than I remember. Look's awesome!

Ford Bronco Just took delivery on my Badlands - now the wife has ordered a Mach E! IMG_0614


Nice!! We got our FE Mach-E back in February. An actual First Edition that came "First". My wife loves it. We put a 60 amp breaker in the house for the big Ford Charger. Its been great.
Waiting on the FE Bronco still....
