Owners Manual for 2021 Bronco! [download here] 📖

[SaudiBronco]

1st, Thanks for the link, OP.

2nd, I'm now 100% Wildtrack.

3dr, Why?... Sport Modes.

Wouldn't using a 2H Baja mode do the same?

Not really detailed on some of the stuff I wanted to learn about. I’m guessing there will be a supplemental book for the infotainment and instrument cluster screens. I want to turn screens off, if possible.

@Toccoa There will more than likely be an option to turn off the 8 or 12 inch screen if that's what you are asking about. Ford has that capability on all of their current cars. They give you 3 options. On, Calm screen( which is just the time and date presented on a soft background), and then Off/Black Screen.

Do all broncos have this feature? This may be enough for me to throw in the towel and get a super duty.

Sadly, yes. It’s easy enough to turn off when you get into the vehicle - You actually get into the habit, if it’s something that bothers you. When I bought my Jeep Grand Cherokee with a 5.7L Hemi, it doesn’t have this feature and I was very happy lol. But whatever; it’s not going to stop me from buying a vehicle.

Some words and how often they are mentioned in the manual:

Warning: 110
Injury: 52
Death: 35
Enjoy: 0
Happy: 0

Warning! This made me think of our local northern California (Oakland) band Green Day! Rock on - and without WARNING.

"For the best tire life, a five tire rotation is recommended that includes the matching spare tire mounted on the back of the vehicle. This rotation requires a forced re-learning of your tire pressure monitor system sensors
by your vehicle, and should be performed by an authorized dealer or a service center to ensure the tire pressure monitor system will provide proper warning at all times. When performing the tire rotation yourself, a four tire rotation is recommended, without using the spare tire in the rotation, so that no tire pressure monitor
system sensor re-learn is required. If a five tire rotation is performed without a tire pressure monitor system sensor re-learn, the system may not provide a low tire pressure warning when necessary."

That stinks. Although "may not" doesn't necessarily mean that the bronco isn't smart enough to figure it out. Unclear.

I will be on the pavement 95% of the time. I love sport mode in my F-150.
From the Manual, read last paragraph:

BAJA E225314 For high speed off-road driving. Baja mode optimizes the throttle control for better response and torque delivery. Four-wheel drive high is the default four-wheel drive mode. Four-wheel drive auto is not selectable in baja mode. The front electronic locking differential is available below 25 mph (40 km/h) when in four-wheel drive low. The rear electronic locking differential is available at any speed in all selectable four-wheel drive modes. The stabilizer bar disconnect is available in four-wheel drive high or four-wheel drive low.

Note: Do not use this mode on dry, hard pavement. This could produce some vibration, driveline bind up, and potential excessive tire and vehicle wear depending on the four-wheel drive mode selection.

If it is somewhat easy to disable i can work with it. But I do a decent amount of idling on break, and during hunting season. So I hope it isn't too big of an inconvenience.

Just to add: FWIW 2H is available in Baja mode.

I haven’t fully read through the owners manual yet, but it’s either going to be a simple button or something in the Sync4 system. It’ll take you seconds to do each time you get in, don’t worry.

Printed part number is M2DJ19A321AA

I am trying to find a link to order the printed owner's manual. Not having any luck with parts or accessories on ford.com. Thanks!

150k mile fluid change interval for diffs and transfer case.

Yeah don’t do that. Do it every ~30K with synthetic fluids. Cheap insurance. 50K if you really want to push it.

Looks like it would work. I would hate to forget to place it in 2-H.

Yes. Just make sure the vehicle is in 2H and the rear axle is unlocked
