Say Hello and Introduce Yourself! ?

Hi guys & gals! New member; long time Ford enthusiast and tinkerer. Just closed on a deal for a 2024 BS Badlands with co-pilot assist 360 and Premium Pack. I'm very active on a few other Ford forums and can't wait to get my hands on this thing and mess with it. Currently have a 2021 F150 Platinum EcoBoost and a 1991 Mustang LX 5.0 coupe in my stable, so this will be the third Ford in the household.

First mod on the list is to swap in the PCM from a 2021-2022 model to be able to tune it. Did a search for PCM swap here, but nothing came up. Any insight anyone may have towards accomplishing this would be appreciated. If not, I'll make a write-up once I figure it out.

Edit: PCM swap it NOT needed to tune 2023-2024 models; at least not with Livernois.

We picked up our 25 Badlands on 6/28. We already have 1300 miles on it. Our 19 Mustang GT had 130,000 when we traded it in on the Badlands, so we've got aways to go!!!

THANKS!!!

We've had Rangers & F150s for years, but this is our 1st SUV. I've driven
mustangs since 1975 & this is the 1st time without one in 18 years. I've been lurking on this site for a few weeks & used a lot of info from this site to select our Bronco Sport. It sure looks like an awful lot of good peeps on here.

It's here! Happy to have an all Ford household again. It drives much better than I expected it to, and it will be driving even better soon. Big thanks to the guys at Livernois for having my tune ready before I even got it.

I've had my F150 tuned by these guys for a few years now. 40 whp and 75 wtq gains on the 2.0L engine on these. Just got back from a test run. This thing gets down! Very significant difference.

Are those Numbers with a 93 Octane Tune?

Are those Numbers with a 93 Octane Tune?

Yes indeed. Not sure how much using a lesser octane would affect it.

Good morning! I'm a new member from Texas. We just took posession of our Velocity Blue Badlands Edition Bronco last night. It joins a 2017 Ford F150 4X4 and a 2014 Jeep Cherokee 4X4 we already own. I suppose it'll eventually replace the Jeep, but right now I can't pry that out of Mrs. T's hands.

This was about as far from what we started out to buy as you can get. Since we had two other 4-wheel drive vehicles we were looking for a four-door sedan, but reality set in and we realized a lack of cargo capacity and ruggedness would limit its usefulness for us.

We have dogs and do lots of outdoor activities that require cargo space and a car just wasn't going to cut it. We started looking at crossover SUVs and quickly zoomed in on the Bronco Sport because of its overall off-road prowess. It has all the amenities of a touring sedan with the rugged build and off-road capability of real 4X4.

We're looking forward to learning about the Bronco and enjoying it for many years to come.

The only disappointment so far is that its not flat towable like the F150 and Jeep.

Welcome and congratulations!

Welcome and congratulations!

Thank you! We're stoked and already making plans for exploring the 5 off-road routes in Big Bend this fall.
