The swing out tail gate is too hard to open

I haven't picked mine up yet, is it really that bad?
I wasn't at first, but 3k miles in it is really bad. Doors, windows, tailgate, and soft top all rattle over every bump.

OK, I tried to read the entire thread, but it's growing faster than I can read. So, here it goes. Now I honestly know these people mean well, but for me at this point it's:

"I ordered my Bronco January 15th, '22, and it arrived March 28th. Let me say "IT"S WORTH THE WAIT".

Just f^%king shoot me now..........................:cautious:

You don't have a bunch of gear hanging and rattling off your seat backs?? Mine are the plastic type with wind chime like metallic carabiners. Very nice but gawd I love em. Camera gear, walkie talkies, trail gear, even my Bronco tool kit - all right in reach.
Mine is cowl shake(I think). I've got a tailgate reinforcement on order so hopefully, that will help. The doors/windows rattle like an old Jeep.

Door removal should be an option; not a standard feature. It’s a novelty feature to most, and potentially very dangerous. It’s as if some new brand of rough rider condoms came with a removable tip. I plan to drive my BD in the mountain woods, mud, rain and snow mostly. Why would I take them off? That day or two I find myself at the beach maybe. But the tradeoff in utility and convenience isn’t really worth having them for a couple of days of marginally increased fun.

Can you explain? Would love to know why.
I agree with him so I'll jump in.
The silence and stillness at a stop is nice. The little bit a of gas saved is a bonus. I'm always disappointed when it's overridden by the HVAC or something.

I have never been in the car with someone who was a non-smoker open their windows only an inch or so. Nor have I seen any windows on the road cracked just an inch unless the driver was a smoker. Anecdotal, but it is my experience.
Hello again. I'm the mythical non-smoker with my window cracked an inch. It's just the right amount to let in a little fresh air but keep most of the sun out (tinted).
