anyone using gas other than regular?

I had a turbo in my Saab and it required octane 90 or higher.

I checked the manual and it says octane 87 or higher. But just getting the pulse of the people.

Just filled up for the first time this morning with Wawa Premium (91).

Must be nice to have money for premium gas

Yeah, once everything settles down, I won't really be filling up all that often, so thinking I might go 91 or higher.

although, I will say. I hate wawa gas and try to avoid it at all costs. I'd fill up with 91 at Wawa on my Saab (granted, it was an '08) and it ran rough. Took me a bit to figure it out, but I started filling up with anything other than, and it'd run great. So after that I do my best to avoid Wawa gas unless I have no other choice. No issues with it in the Tahoe, but man, my Saab did not like it.

ok, I'm researching fog lights more now that I actually have the Bronco...

So for those of you that have installed them. (I'm looking at you @mds5917 & @Designkid ) which kits did you go with? what combo of lights?

Is there a reason the Baja Designs are so much more expensive than the Diode Dynamics?

Was looking to pick some up from these guys:
DD: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/diode-...-w-kr-off-road-brackets-for-2021-ford-bronco/
BD: https://www.4x4truckleds.com/baja-d...-w-kr-off-road-brackets-for-2021-ford-bronco/

some great tips helped me get my BD fogs programmed through the switch I replaced on the Badlands so I did not take up an upfitter for it

what switch do you speak of?

4x4 truck leds seems like a good place.

If you have the mod bumper with front sensors, the factory fog light wiring harness is probably there. You can install a new interior light switch that includes the fog light switch, enable fog lights in ForScan, and wire them to the factory harness.
From the other thread, it seems like you can enable the corning feature which should light up the inside fog light when turning the wheel past some per-determined angle. I think/hope.

BD supposedly picked their colors from feedback with racers. Nice, if true.

DD claims higher output. Their patterns look better than BD, but that is from DD's marketing (pictures).

anyone figure out a fix for the mirror whistle? Just noticed on mine it’s loud at high speeds with the window down

To be honest, only the BajaDesigns one was available when I bought mine but probably still would have gone with them now. They're really nice quality and had them on my Taco for a few years without any issues. More than bright enough that even running the SAE ones, I'd get flashed. Then I'd turn on the really bright ones to show em what bright is

You youngsters crack me up, I've known that since 1987....may have even got me out of a ticket or two....
"oh damn, yeah I just put bigger tires on officer, would that mess up my speedometer? "

My problem here is, this is 35's from the factory, did the geniuses at MAP fuck up the calibration?

I think most cars are shall we say generous at their depiction of speed vs actual. I tend to always see on the speedo 2-3 mph over my actual clocked speed.

 

[Johnny Mo]

right. that's what I was thinking.

My wife was more the 'you need to do this' vs me. But that's also who she is compared to me.

The 45 golden saber JHP to the forehead is my deterrent.

So annoying. Even my wife noticed it on like the second ride we took.

When that happened with the antenna they added a thin raised wrap to it...wonder if there is a sweet spot on the mirror to add a winglet of some sort to disrupt the airflow where the whistle is being generated.

I have the mod bumper with I'd assume front sensors since I have mid package and it alerts me when I get too close to things.

But I don't see any fog switch or where what would be a fog switch. (Dummy switch)

I don't mind using up the aux switches. Not sure I could come up with 5 different things for them to use anyway.

The thing is I really only have use for 1 fog light that I'll be using when it's snowing or foggy or whatever. So the 2 extra lights are overkill. So just trying to justify the cost, when I really only want 1 light. Maybe over time someone will create a bracket that only holds one. But right now they're trying to make the most they can while they can. Which I get...

Yeah. I was thinking the same. Gotta just pinpoint what is causing the whistling and then see how to cover it up.

You can remove the antenna to eliminate it as a cause
