I honestly don’t know what you are trying to say. You can absolutely drive down a highway road in 1st depending on how steep the road is. When decending long steep hills, you have to downshift to prevent wearing out brakes.
I don’t do it much anymore, because there are no mountain ms that big in...

That’s not an issue. Those are the cornering lights. They come on when you are stopped and have the wheel turned sharply. They are supposed to shine into the turn.
Mine is named Barca (meaning lightning) after Hannibal Barca, the Carthaginian general who invaded Rome in the second Punic war after marching over the Alps. I figured it was fitting because he went where no one expected him to be able to and beat competition that one paper he shouldn’t have...
Ok, I took my Badlands off road today. I thought I’d share my impressions so far. Firstly, the video below is unfortunately not of me or my Bronco, however, it is of the exact same hill I had just gone down, across the stream both ways, and back up. Next time I’ll see if I can get some video of...
Just two minutes in and he has no idea what that First Edition is. “It’s basically the Badlands” with different rims, tires and decals? That’s ridiculous! Most of the features of the FE are interior.
Only complaint so far is that the center mirror mount obstructs a huge chunk of the windshield. I feel like the worst blind spot is the front driving side.
I’d like ventilated seats, but that’s not a major issue.
I’ve actually adapted to the start stop pretty well, even for left hand turns where you want a quick response. All you have to do is slightly lift the brake and the engine will start. You can still stay put and it won’t turn off again until after you’ve gotten up to speed and stop again. I...
That actually makes sense. With limited supply still, dealers are probably trying to get their hands on as many as possible. They could place a no deposit order every time someone was interested, and try to get more delivered. Ford probably wants deposits to make sure the first models are being...
It’s a copycat, but not from Ford. There is a bit of Bronco in the grill and headlights, but beyond that it looks to me like a jeep renegade with wrangler fenders.
1) I thought I had a bad experience, but now I feel like one of the lucky ones. $500 deposit 12/31 on a BL now BL package with an 8-12 week eta. No order confirmation email. Nothing from Ford. No further communication until the end of February. They told me it would be here early March and gave...
I really love the suspension more and more as I learn about it. So much of it was built with speed in mind rather than crawling. That’s perfect for what I’m down with it. I’ll rarely take it to its limit on technical trails, but I’ll often be driving miles across poorly maintained dirt roads and...
