Sounds about like all the Mustang forums I'm on, there's just no activity in them...
There's tons of activity on the Bronco forum....a two hour old post will have 6 pages of replies! Maybe it's because I just want to keep my Bronco basic so I don't get into the threads, but a lot of it is overkill to me. I did score some 35" tires from the classifieds though!

I'm on a Harley forum an it's come to a crawl too. I assume it's because the motorcycle community is slowing in interest and a big factor is HD facebook groups have taken over.

I'm on there an it's not as fun as this forum.
Well, I'll definitely agree with you on that! There's actually a lot of assholes on it and not much interested people in my builds... More like nosey ass people telling me what to do, like keep them stock... Most of those people telling me that are in California, but no offense to any of you Californians on this site, LOL!

Thursday marks 2 weeks ago we got rid of the Ranger, for my wife's Yellow Limited. Here is my "modified" one and hers besides mine.

I definitely do not miss my Wrangler, but I think we're gonna regret getting rid of the Ranger. It didn't even have 9k on it... They gave us $27k on it though, that's crazy, because I only paid a little over $30k for it brand new in October '21!!!

Both nice. I think the green looks more Bronco-ish. :like:

Wow normally I don’t like yellow vehicles but the yellow one has got me saying banana cream bronco 2 door is looking pretty good. Green one looks real nice too, but that wasn’t surprising ?..
Love the his and hers deal you got going on.. #CouplesGoalAccomplished ?

Is the yellow Bronco stock?
Yes, it's stock! We just got it 2 weeks ago, it's the only Yellowstone Heritage Limited Edition around here that the dealer knew of!

Thanks! Mine is a 2023 Badlands Sasquatch LUX in Eruption Green and didn't look anything like that when I bought it, LOL!

Wife's is actually a 2024 Heritage Limited Edition in Yellowstone Yellow. We ordered hers in March and picked it up 2 weeks ago. The Heritage Limited only came in 2 colors, Robin's Egg Blue or Yellowstone Yellow. She wanted Yellow :)

Thanks, you can't buy my Green one like that. I did all that to it in a month!

Yes sir, those are 37" Mickey Thompson Baja Boss MT's, they were on my Wrangler and barely had any miles on them, so I threw them on my aftermarket Bronco wheels :) Mine's a Sasquatch, but I lifted it an additional 2.5", making it 4.5" total lift. I did quite a lot to it actually! Check out my build thread here:

Thanks! I actually had ordered a Robin's Egg Blue Heritage Limited, but decided I didn't want it. We found out that the 2023 Eruption Green one was for sale, before it was actually "For Sale", LOL! So, I changed my mind on the expensive Heritage Limited, bought the Green one and made it my own Heritage!

I agree. They really should roll the 5g forum into the 6g forum because we share a lot of the same components on these trucks. They should also include the earlier gen Rangers. The Chevy Colorado Fans forum includes all the Colorado Generations (3), plus the sister brand the GMC Canyon.
I'd be fine with the 6g folks, but the 5g is such a departure from the earlier Rangers that I wouldn't see a lot of value in having a subforum dedicated to them. I say that as a former subscriber to The Ranger Station, which was a great info source for me when I still had my 2005. I know there are some other 4G Ranger forums as well, but I can't recall them specifically at the moment.

I'm just saying that the earlier forums have earned their loyalists. And frankly, the older Rangers are slowly fading away. I'm on an old BMW forum that gets maybe half a dozen posts in a month. An old MB forum I drop in on from time to time has lost so much traffic, the mods have opened it up to political discourse!! :explode:
