The bronco is tempting me too. How is the back seat compared to the ranger? If I get one it would be a base model with the only option being the auto.

Looks nice, glad the Ranger tested you right and hope you get the same treatment from the Bronco!

The Bronco was never my cup of tea. Too boxy, weird proportions and not attractive in the stock configurations unless it was night time on a dark trail, illuminated by moonlight, then and only then I just might get some feelings stirring.

But today, I saw a 4dr forest green hardtop, with the right wheel/tire package, lift kit, and accessories that made me tingle in the tender bits like i was at my high school prom again.
The proportions and stance were bang on and the color brought it all together. Was a nice looking piece.

More gooder? I see you went to public skool. 🤓

BTW..... WHITE is the right choice! 😝
Of course! Everyone knows the correct term is more gooderer! :LOL:

White is good, but PLATINUM White is even better.....

Thanks everyone!

Interior pics please?
I'll get some tomorrow! Starting to get dark in the woods.
Mind if I ask how much you got for the Ranger on trade-in?
They gave me 25k for the truck. Pretty much exactly what I owed on it.. so I was happy.. especially considering the passenger bedside needed a re-spray due to a cantaloupe-size cluster of scratches.. and the interior of the bed was dented all to hell.. and the bum center bearing on indefinite backorder..


The bronco is tempting me too. How is the back seat compared to the ranger? If I get one it would be a base model with the only option being the auto.
The back seat isn't 3 wide like the ranger, just two seats. More headroom for sure.. and side to side seems definitely roomy enough. Apart from that... there's just as much legroom as in the ranger... but mabey not quite as much foot room? There's a wierd hump on the rear floor at the base of the back seat... right where your heels would go.. So if someone with big feet is sitting behind someone with the seat back a bit.. seems like they'll either have to wedge their toes underneath the front seat or 'high knee' it and rest their heels on the floor hump..

I'm not always the best at explanations lol, ill get some pictures that'll do a better job.a

Recieved and Installed my Flowmaster Outlaw Series muffler delete this afternoon 😎

Tone & outside volume seem about the same as the AFE delete I had on the ranger (which is FOR SALE! BUY IT! lol)

Havnt taken it down the road yet to see how loud it gets inside.. but I'm betting its at least a little louder considering it doesn't dump 5 feet behind the passenger compartment.

Also don't know why they wasted their time polishing the damn tip..... not gonna see it unless it's on a lift or on its roof 😋
