Sheesh, quite a project getting 'Squatching off the ground. Tons of interest, finally got a vendor, yadda yadda. I'll keep that stuff restricted to the 'Squatching thread(s) (more updates to come!! Literally 115 people signed up at this point. Holy smokes.)
So I've decided to keep rocking my brand new '21 Bronco Badlands w/ the Lux package. It's totally maxed out with all the creature comforts, but it's built as a 4-door to be a badass overlander.. I like the truck, and the wife likes it too, well enough. She commented today that it's "comfortable and easy to drive." The born complainer. Who knew.
Pretty much 100% of my upgrade efforts at this time are 1) the front bumper to accommodate a Warn winch of my choosing without violating the cameras/sensors and 2) lift for 37" tires.
I'm not going to place anything made by Rough Country on my Bronco intentionally. For those of you who are unaware, Rough Country makes the bottom of the barrel stuff. I even bought their seat covers for my Wrangler and they were junk. Do not buy unless you can LITERALLY afford nothing else. Rough Country is JUNK! I realize many new Bronco owners are new to off-roading, so don't make this mistake. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Is anyone else waiting around for a legit off-road vendor to announce products for the Bronco? I'm talking Genright, ACR, etc. Not consumer grade junk, I'm looking for legitimate mfgrs to wade in one this. 4WP? I can't quite decide about them yet. They bridge the divide between the legit manufacturers and consumer grade, at least to me, at this point, for the Bronco.
Such a new thing, our lovely Broncos. I still haven't wheeled mine. My Wrangler on 38s sits sulking, looking at the new beauty, saying "I'm way tougher than you. I'll kick your ass." And she's probably right.
Thoughts, share them...
