Hi Dave,

Engine stalls are not permitted under any condition. This needs Powertrain Engineering diagnosis...Hope this happens...Brakes and steering should have been doable though efforts would likely been high...

best,
Phil
Hi Phil,

You're right it shouldn't ever happen and this hill gets climbed by thousands every year. It's not driver inexperience either as it seems like this guy has done his share of rock crawling before.

I first thought it was another Tick Tok click bait article but it's not even his Bronco it's his wife's. Still could be one but from those who were there and have off roaded with him afterwards it doesn't sound like it was.

Real question is being ignored here....

What the heck was she doing outside the kitchen in the first place? :LOL:

Timing couldn't have been better.

Really though. I'm sure the club could have used some freshly baked cookies and cold beer waiting for them when they got back to the homestead.

Doesnt it sound like the tires were dragging all the way back down, suggesting it had brakes? I don’t think we can rule out driver error or panic here.

The original broncbuster was blue and on 40’s. It was a manual trans 2.3l here is his sheet. It’s is said it is his wife’s bronco (the white bronco in the video) So who knows.

baaaaa haaaa.. his wife groaning at the end is the best !!
I don't know why the Bronco failed to make it up the hill. I assume it was his wife that was filming and I also understand it was her Bronco and it is a shame her vehicle was damaged but, I will admit I chucked a bit at her moaning. Shame on me...

Forget the failure.


How the fuck did he get 2 Broncos in the household when MOST early reservation holders can't even get one?


I finally saw a 2 Dr in the wild the other day. It was similar to my likely builds even. All I could say when I saw it was "fuck you dude."


Ford has ruined the Bronco for me.

And honestly, I'm not even slightly impressed with anything they are doing right now.

Horrible launches, questionable quality, and questionable ethics, are becoming the hallmark of FoMoCo.
