How is that 2.3 with the sas. I’m thinking of switching my order to get it sooner. I drive maybe less than 5k miles a year since I have a work truck, so idk if I need that 2.7 and then with all the stuff going on with them I’m getting iffy. Thanks in advance.
I’ve only driven the 2.7 a few times so can’t evenly compare; however, it has more than enough power IMO. Can add premium to get up to 300hp, and have no complaints. My cousin has a 2020 ranger with the same engine and he says it’s a workhorse.

2.7, what's that?

2.3 - Do it, i love it. Get it with the manual. It's Fast, powerful, pure fun. Beast mode

I have yet to experience a downside with it.

I would think the auto trans isn't as spunky, but i never drove a 2.3 auto.

Crawl gear is useful, and it doesn't really need 6th gear, but it's there

Not a thing but maybe next order.
  • 2.3 is fantastic
  • 2D is selfish, looks great, and no room. perfect
  • EG color is amazing
  • MGV is perfect but does get a little sweaty
  • BD with 4x4A is spot on.
If I could do it again think about BL for the lockers.

Still a great deal and super capable. The 7k difference will cover all the other things I wanted to and have done. Speakers, bully, fogs, led tails and a bunch of other stuff.

Going to upgrade coilovers, arms, winch, and move to 33s.

Completely agree, on these two points in particular:
- 2D is selfish, looks great, and no room. perfect
- BD with 4x4A is spot on.

No regerts. It's a beast, a rocket ship, a Tonka truck

Best dealer: Klaben Ford in Warren
Best color: velocity blue
Best bumper: modular
Best # doors: 2
Best transmission: manual
Best package: sasquatch
Best top: hardtop
Best switches: switches
Best build week: 5/9 Mansquatch week

It is what Ford wanted the bronco to be. It is the essence of Bronco. Basically unobtainable too:ROFLMAO:

For those still yet to order, my advice is don't cave, hang in there, it will happen. No regrets

VB is seriously amazing in person. I almost went race red, SO happy with VB every time i see the bronco. It makes me feel very fortunate, i don't know how to explain it. It's just beautiful.

And Mike at Klaben was awesome, I'd recommend anyone go there
