Sharing some feedback from the September Moab event. Most of the feedback was covered but here are some details.
We had a wonderful time, and it was a hearty introduction to how capable the Bronco is. There were 20 4 door broncos at the site. With Badland trims being 3 to 1 and the remainder being Outerbanks or Wildtraks. I had a race red wildtrak with a hardtop. There were 90% sasquatch packages, and 90% softtops. The instructor ratio was 6 cars to 1 instructor which was sufficient to provide valued instruction while keeping us moving on the trail. The outdoor trail was 8 hours of the event and we used up all of that in driving. While the trail was a 4/10 it was perfect difficulty for people who never offroaded before.
Since everyone has covered the pros of the bronco here are some cons I learned in the 8 hours.
Pros:
No engine envy, hard to know the difference by badge. Engine is sufficient.
Suprised at how low noise v6 was. The mic top didnt rattle, but my wife described the squeaky sound as plastic rubbing together or the sound of your overhead bins vibrating in an airline during turbulence.
Cons:
Splashing into puddles makes the mud splash over the bumper and covers the whole windshield.
Not enough and too small cupholders barely fit a 24oz flask.
Cloth seats in the Wildtrak, not as cool to sit on as marine vinyl, with the mud the carpet floors were too much maintenance.
