  1. Bronco Sport base camp / car camping + custom kayak trailer

    You're not kidding. Throwing them up on the J's on the roof rack is getting harder and harder. Used to be I could do it myself, now I need a second set of hands if not anything to help guide it on. I have a 12ft Mad River Synergy and a 13.5ft Perception America but don't use them as much as I...
  2. Go anywhere fun this week?

    Well... I didn't take my BS there but I went to Iceland last week. Saw these monsters, as well as a brand new Ranger Raptor that I didn't manage to get a pic of. This is a 6-door diesel Superduty based custom by Arctic Trucks. The smaller (!!) is a Land Cruiser 150 or Prado as its known...
  3. New Badlands

    I politely beg to differ. The Badlands based Heritage Limited is the top of the Bronco Sport food chain. ;)
  4. The little things... accessories so far.

    Adding to the rust talk-- a solid point like this won't have the same issues as a shackle (less nooks and crannies). https://yankum.com/collections/tow-points/products/2-inch-hitch-receiver-recovery-point Otherwise the best option IMO is to keep your recovery point safely stored inside and...
  5. Matchbox 2022 Ford Bronco Sport Diecast

    Hmmm... I may have to do exactly that! Thanks for the idea.
  6. Baby Bronc’s Build

    On a lot of cars, the metal on the top of the shock towers is thin. Connecting those towers with a rigid bar will make the vehicle more flat into a turn but if it isn't properly reinforced it can cause stress fractures in the metal. Unsure on ours so the reason why I bring up the point. A longer...
  7. Baby Bronc’s Build

    Regarding the strut tower bar-- I think any time you can limit the twist on a unibody you're doing good work. Although I don't drive the Bronco like I do my BMW, this may get added to the cart today. Does anyone have a close up on the mounting plates/position? I want to make sure that before I...
  8. Weekend trip Fish Creek Wash with the Bronco group

    @MontyPilot what fridge/freezer do you have and how do you have it mounted? Seriously considering asking Santa for one.
  9. HRG Broke it? video

    I get what you're saying but there isn't any way a BS BL/HL is going to be able to do what a stock Rubicon can do. You're right- you dont need 40's and a straight axle for everything but when you do, its a game changer. This isn't the vehicle for the off road crowd- that's the domain of the full...
  10. HRG Broke it? video

    Pretty impressed the BS was able to do what it did. The Exploder... that's was wild.
  11. Bronco Sport Heritage Build

    @Tigger does the bug deflector actually work? My washer fluid budget is getting blown! I wish that Ford put the thicker white stripe on the Limited's. It looks great on the standard Heritages.
  12. Thinking of making my Bronco Sport a money pit

    IDK. From what Ive read Toyota is half angry/half doesn't care what the dealers do. Their "ordering" system is more screwed up than Ford's. Almost all of the Toyota dealers near me except one are part of big corporate chains (read: Shit service, shit sales staff, shit prices, and generally...
  13. Thinking of making my Bronco Sport a money pit

    Hard to say but I don't think it will top the TRD Pro's sticker when the time comes. I think the TRD Pro will hit $75K but I think the Trailhunter will hang in the 60's to compete better with the Colorado ZR2 ($62k-ish) and the just announced 2024 Mojave X ($65-70Kish). The ZR2 Bison when it...
  14. Thinking of making my Bronco Sport a money pit

    For us the BS was a better option than the full size 4-door because the majority of the time it will be on the road and commuting about town, road trips, etc. We did get the chance to side by side test our BS HL and a Big Bend that came on the same truck for dealer stock. Price delta between the...
  15. Thinking of making my Bronco Sport a money pit

    QFT. Bought my Yakima hitch bike rack and Thule box that way for peanuts. Now to find a basket…
  16. Thinking of making my Bronco Sport a money pit

    I already have the Yakima towers with their HD bars but am kicking around maybe getting a basket and swapping in and out depending on my trip. Beach? Basket. Lake and bringing the kayak? Bars. Lower profile is better far as I'm concerned.
  17. '23 Bronco Sport Badlands... fully loaded and ready for summer!

    Sharp!! Gold wheels really look good against the green. BTW: a BL in Eruption was our second choice if we weren't able to track down the Yellowstone HL we wound up with. Had the same experience with the BL you did on the test drive, and coincidentally we had just come from a Jeep dealer where...
  18. Thinking of making my Bronco Sport a money pit

    Good question John. I don't believe it does but it is damned close.
  19. Thinking of making my Bronco Sport a money pit

    @JohnSilver I really like the low profile of that setup. Wonder if the moonroof would interfere?
