I went from a 2021 2 door OB to 2022 4 door BADLands. Zero regrets. The back seat was the worst part about the 2 door for me. So difficult to get back there and not convient at all.

Can't wait for the two door brigade to show up and start moaning.

Nice upgrade
I'm your Huckleberry! No way in hell I'm trading my 2 door for a moar door!

If I could get an Everglades without markup I’d be all over it.

It was tough, but I traded in my first love, a 2021 2-door black diamond sas for a 2022 Everglades! Would you have made the same decision?
Already added a few nice touches, 35x12.5 BFGoodrich MTs, some lights, and mup flaps. Got a few more adds as well coming. Pleasantly surprised, didn't notice any extra wind noise from the winch or snorkel. Love the new rig already!

Nope! Wouldn't trade my 2 door for a 4 door.

If I had a BD absolutely I’d make the switch. Heck if I didn’t have so much $ wrapped up in my OBX and could get one at msrp I’d love an Everglades.

I wouldn't do Everglades because of the 2.3 only and no high package...

But I would like your bumper and winch... And the green bits inside.

But then then winch would interfere with the camera...

Ugh, Ford...

I have zero issue with the 4 cylinders, still has 300 horsepower could easily get to 330 with a tune. Don't have to go very far back and most v6s didn't have 300 horsepower.

I'm sure it's been noted somewhere on here, but are those Everglades steps available as a purchase through Ford separately? Do they just hook onto the rock rails, like the other aftermarket ones we've seen?

Looks great! Congrats on the new Bronco!
I believe the Everglades rock rails would be different, those steps bolt on to the side of the rock rail. There would be some sort of threaded hole for them. I’m sure you could find a way to bolt them on to your existing rock rails.

Crap username though .... ;)

I'll prolly bump up to a moar door also, at some point. The extra room just works better for me.
Twist a 2dr up anyway you like it, it still isn't an early Bronco, the kings of cool. Might as well get what suits our lifestyles best.
It helps that I have a '69 EB project in the garage though, lol.

Man, I wish I could just get these exact steps and attach them to my current rock rails. But I doubt Ford would sell them like that. :cautious:

Not me.

#1 reason I bought a bronco was the stick-shift. Everglades you are stuck with the auto-magic.

And the 4-door jabs me in the shoulder with the B-pillar.

Glad to hear you are happy with your switch! Thank you for being a part of the Ford family. :)
