I have a Bronco on order. It will be the last ICE I buy. Im even worried I will get hosed when time comes to trade it in.

I have a Bronco on order, but keeping my Flex. 136K miles still runs great. I have three kids 18,15 and 14 YOs. One of them will be driving it. Best car I ever had.

What bothers me most about little engines like the 1.5 is turbo failure at around 60,000 miles or so. They need the turbo to produce adequate power and so many customers experience turbo failure after a few years. Not a cheap fix.
Yeah, I mean I had an 89 probe gt, 2.2 l turbo. only had 160k mile when I traded it. original turbo. They must have gotten worse since then

My F150 3.5LEB loafs along at 1200 rpm most of the time thanks to the 10 speed tranny and available low end torque even going up small hills. That plus auto stop start and aggressive deceleration fuel cut off make it easy to get 25+ mpg and still tow 12K and 3K payload. Fancy engine tricks not needed.
You mean like turbo charging, Di, variable valve timing, hell ecoBoost is practically a flathead ?

Totally agree. Not doubting the purpose of the trim names, I just don’t care for them.
So I suppose you dont like trim names like GT350, GT500, Bullit, Mach 1, Boss 302.

What do you guys think the refresh/redesign model will look like for the bronco? Will it be more like the wrangler where it stays basically the same with very minor changes or would we see more drastic changes like you normally see in a redesign?
I would hope mustang would be the template

Have they started doing preproduction builds at MAP yet?

This is true but won't they be gearing it differently for the 35 option?

I'm not loving the materials I'm seeing - they look way too hard black plastic-y.
According to a guy at bronco6g the plastic is pre-production and the real plastic will have texture.

Now correct me if i'm wrong, but doesn't LS eventually become OD if the surface is just too slick? Or does it always spin both wheels?
i seem to recall they would take turns spinning. Or maybe that was just my shitty set up. LOL been a long time since my racing days.

I had a beat up 93 mustang convertible, with cloth seats. I used to carry garbage bags to put over them if I left the top down and it rained.

Not true at all. PP builds are slated to start sometime in August.I thought I read somewhere that the coronavirus was causing some supplier issues.

It would be really cool if they hid bigger wheel wells under removable fender flares, to make it super easy to upgrade the tire size.
I dont think that is the real front fender. It looks like there is some padding and additional camo there. You can see a crease on the top edge.

There's a certain part of my anatomy I (or my wife) would have cut off LOOOONG before we ended up with 10 kids. Don't get me wrong, I love my kids, but I don't have enough sanity to spread it around for 10!
I have heard, though, that the more kids you have, the generally better behaved and calm they are as a whole.
No you just cant keep track of all the crap they do. Ignorance is bliss

That design was supposed to minimize the possibility of occupants coming into contact with the vehicle while entering or exiting. That way they wouldn't get their pant legs dirty.
It works
