    Overland Bronco 27114

    Super excited today! Just had a GFC Superlite delivered to the office. Now I am just waiting on Gobi to open up ordering for the Stealth Rack for Broncos and I can install it on the Bronco, along with the awning that has collected dust in my office since February. I am mounting a fridge slide...

    Overland Bronco 27114

    I am just over 5200 miles now, my Medicare season and my healthcare enrollment seasons are over, and the next set of large mileage gains are going to be some adventure. On a new platform, I am at the will of manufacturers for certain things - Hard Top, roof racks, brackets, suspension, towing...

    Overland Bronco 27114

    I’m actually enjoying the 4banger. I am averaging about 19mpg on 33” tires with the 4.43 gearing (badlands, non-Sasquatch, automatic). I have about 4100 miles in the last month, highway driving I get less, city driving I actually get more. I drove to Orlando yesterday, took the expressway...

    Has anyone called out the new Ford Bronco's trail turn assist?

    Hi! New Bronco Owner here! Yes, and no. Yes the Trail Turn Assist if abused can and will mess up trails. As does other things as well if we abuse them. But Trail Turn Assist is meant to be used at a difficult impass to cut the turning radius. It’s not meant to be used to do donuts at the...

    A Pillar Lights - what’s your angle?

    Thanks all, great answers and the general consensus I am seeing is to widen the field of view for ditches. On my JK, the floods were more for maintenance of traffic while working DOT roads, so they were straight on to help with work areas. I never adjusted them when I left that line of work...

    A Pillar Lights - what’s your angle?

    Hey all. Figure I’ll ask the question to see what the consensus is. With your A Pillar Lights, do you have them pointing forward, or angled toward the ditch? I had two Flood Lights on my Jeep, forward facing because I used them more for work/construction, but I am considering the direction...

    Overland Bronco 27114

    Today I used some Ford Points to pick up the rubber floor mats (to go over the rubber floors), and the Tuffy Security Enclosure. I kind of took the day off, and just installed the drawer in the dark by the garage light. I was hoping to install a fridge slide up top, but I’ll need a 1/2”...

    Easy-setup tent and cot recommendations please?

    It is a tight fit in the JKU with the rear seats folded down. I would typically slide the passenger seat forward. It fits at an angle well, but then other gear doesn’t fit well. I have also hung it from the roll bar. Ideally, I wanted a roof rack for the Jeep but that never happened. I have a...

    It doesn’t matter what you drive

    @Kozysnack EXATCLY! There was a time I was younger and we had sand rails and Baja bugs, all 2wd, but we went so many places with them exploring! I have an app on my phone, had it for 12 years or so now, Roadside America, it just has oddball off the beaten path and unusual attractions. I used...

    Ford Maverick and the small overlanding pickup truck

    And here she is! FX4, lifted, 31” tires, and a Bed Topper. I secretly wish the one we ordered for my daughter was the 2.0 with FX4, but we got the hybrid cause she drives to college…. Guess I’ll be happy with the Bronco!

    It doesn’t matter what you drive

    So I have been listening to the Overland Bound Podcast and just finished S2E4 where Michael has a discussion with the regional ambassadors. (Who I still need to look up and get to know in the SE). But they touch on the very embodiment of this community, and I felt compelled to make a post with...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    I put a few stickers on my new rig today! Maine Duck Tours, Jerome, Arizona, Colorado, Great Smokey Mountains - some places I’ve been this year. Hopefully I can continue the adventure with the new rig! I’ll be installing the 2” Receiver and a Oil Catch Can this weekend.

    Overland Bronco 27114

    I am right now into my busy season, until December 7th. But that means December 8th I’m taking that day off thru the weekend. I have ordered a few things today to start getting things together. I already have a few recovery items (strap, shackles, tire repair kit, gloves) in the rear cargo, as...

    Overland Bronco 27114

    So! I picked her up today! I finally got my Bronco, a 2021 Badlands, 2.3L, Auto, Soft top, Upgraded Wheels, and High Package. Yeah, I wanted a hard top, so my plans and build have changed slightly. But the build begins tomorrow with the first modification, adding 20hp with my Overland Bound...

    New truck

    Congrats! I have one on order for my daughter. I did opt for the hybrid, because 40MPG to college is better than 10 in the Ram 1500 she has now. The truck bed and pumps will be great for what she needs, going and getting hay and feed for her horses. Momma had a bigger truck, and I have the...
