Man what a blast today was. Can’t wait to get some video edited and uploaded. I got some great footage of the waterfall. Drove the Everglades model. It performed well but I did miss having staybar disconnect in several places.

Brian was a great trail guide. Lunch and dinner were both great! The people were all great. The trail had some really challenging areas. It was just an overall great experience and I can’t say it enough if you’re on the fence, go on and jump over it! Do it!!

The biggest thing I took away from today was correctly using trail control and when to use it. I haven’t used it in the year & a half I’ve owned my bronco because I like control. I want to be controlling everything. But after trying it today on a hill climb and hill decent, I will definitely be using it more often now I think.

Big thanks to everyone at the Tennessee Off-Roadeo. Really hope they start the BYOB program here because I will definitely be back if they do.

Look forward to more. Looks like a great time!

That's awesome. How is the Everglades' visibility with the snorkel vs a non Glades? Over 3 years in and I have yet to use trail control other then to test it out and it's such a process to engage, but as I read that I suddenly thought I should see if it helpful on snowy/icy hills.

It's hard not to enjoy a Bronco Off-Roadeo, and for all the reasons you stated. I'm glad you were not disappointed (although I cannot imagine anyone being so). 🙂

Great photos! That facility is pretty nice, too.
Chris here. I drive a 2-door Velocity Blue 2023 Ford Bronco Badlands with Sasquatch, Lux, a 2.7L V6, and an automatic transmission. It’s fun.

Honestly I never really even knew it was there. It blends in so well with the A-Pillar that you really forget it’s there.

@BuckYeah youre right the facility was very nice. And well kept/clean.

You really only see it if you are in the passenger seat. But if you open that window you will hear that sucker.
I guess that is how they are getting rid of the Glades just ship them to BORs. Vegas has them and I know Moab has at least 4 of them. I love mine.

When you say hear it. As in like hearing a cold air intake sucking in air or obnoxious road noise when it catches wind?
I'm surprised Ford would have to "get rid" of the Glades Broncos. If I could have gotten a 2 door that's what I would have gone with. Ofcourse with an Everglades I never would have discovered how great the front Camera can be when wheeling.

No there isn’t any wind noise that I have noticed. But listening to that turbo suck in air and the blowoff working is pretty cool. I bet if I got an aftermarket blowoff it would be really great. 🤔
Yeah I had to add a camera to get a front view.
