I haven’t read everything in this thread, so apologies if you answered this, but what level tint did you go with?

I ordered a ‘23 BS Badlands in September of '22 with the premium package and 360+. $38k. I agree - deals exist, and they always did….even through the frenzy. Paid under MSRP for a ‘22 BS Badlands I ordered in March of 2022, and things were pretty insane at that time. I get that people find...

Same. I lost $4,000 on my trade-in over a 4 or 5 month period.

All well said. What I’d also add is that in the pursuit of that quick profit, dealers also burned relationships with customers. My local dealer ensured that I’ll never give them a dime if my business ever again simply because 2 or 3 months before the end of nice run dealers had on charging those...

Love that interior!

Ok - it's official. What I did to my Bronco Sport today is sign the purchase contract to buy it. Granger made this long distance purchase so easy. Unfortunate that my local Atlanta dealer didn't care for my business, but Granger stepped in gracefully. I'll likely never buy another Ford from...

Agreed - the pendulum needs to start swinging the other way. I'm good and done with my interest in large vehicles.

Love it! Looks great!

It begins. So far I've only done a few small things, like tinted windows. Now for this next phase, the fun stuff:

agreed. I like the full-sized Bronco well enough, but I like the Sport more than well enough. I truly prefer the Sport, and have no interest in owning a full-size.

I think yours looks great next to it

That disclaimer is definitely on the website. I spoke to the owner of the vehicle and the owner of the shop. The owner of the vehicle claims it fit with no trimming. The shop owner claimed the same thing. We shall see.

I just like the fact that my kids can hit the gas and have the engine jump in response when they need to get out of the way of a semi truck barreling at them with its brakes out. Or something like that where they need to get the hell out of danger, quickly. ?

I will post back here a thorough detail of how this goes. I should have mine all done on February 6th, assuming no delay in getting in parts.

I did read your thread. I love what you did to your Badlands. It looks great.

I appreciate where you are coming from. I’m just telling you I won’t be the first. Attached is an image of a Bronco Sport with the lift I’ll be doing, and the same 31” wheels I’m putting on. No cutting, no rubbing or fit issues.

I think there is a lot of misunderstanding. I won’t be cutting into or trimming the unibody. I’ll post when it’s done.

:) I’ve got undeniable proof that it will work. And I won’t be the first to have done it. I’ll post pics when it’s done.

It won’t. Not throwing 31” wheels on an otherwise stock Badlands. yes - of course - without the lift kit, this would not work. With a 1.75” lift kit, it’s going to work just fine and will be around 3” in total lift once finished.

The bigger the wheel, the less rubber on the tire. Ever see those giant wheels with the smallest of rubber tires ringing them? An 18” wheel will support a tire with less sidewall/rubber - to your point - than a 17” wheel. A 19” wheel will have less rubber/sidewall than an 18”. Nobody that...
