'Badge of Honor' like program?

Not a Badge but I put a sticker on my window of all the places the bronco has concurred. It is only 3 month old so only 4 places so far.

Yeah I've pitched this idea in the past—not in any official capacity, more just a "wink wink nudge nudge".

I agree, Bronco Nation would be ideal to pull this off. I don't know what kind of restrictions they're working under though, I think the team is fairly small... maybe 8 people at most?? And I don't know if they have any developers working for them either. (I would volunteer and help develop something, but I'm assuming it's going to be a rats nest of red tape before they overlords would even let me touch something.)

But yes, it would be cool.

Count me in.
If for no other reason than to equalize the Bronco/Jeep playing field. Let's face it, we have a ways to go before we can compete with the Jeep brand support. Having said that I think we can learn from them and other brand-support communities such as Harley-D. And it's a two-way street. Ford needs the Bronco community as much as we depend upon them. Let's help to make it both a sustainable and successful symbiotic relationship.

Is there any plans for a 'Badge of Honor' like program from the Bronco Nation like Jeep does? I think the Bronco Nation would be ideal for providing this.

I thought the offroad app we're supposedly going to be hearing about this year was to have this capability?

Fortune favors the bold. A good plan today is better than a great plan tomorrow. Upon the plains of hesitation bleach the bones of countless millions who, while on the threshold of victory, stopped to wait for a more opportune moment, and while waiting they died. Feel free to add additional cliques.

Many local state Bronco clubs have created their own trail badges.

But it **would** be cool if corporate had a trail-badging kind of system.

Also looking forward the off-road Ford Performance app, where one can record / share trail details / videos!

Okay, I'll be the noob who asks. "What's a 'Badge of Honor'?" :geek:

Received this cool little metal card from KoH in mail today! thinking of ways to mount it somewhere., maybe sticky Velcro tape to my roof panel.

Yup, I do the same thing. The problem is that not all the runs I've been on give out stickers.

I'm not sure if it's still there, but if you go to the website for 4FEST, I noticed when signing up for the recent SnowFEST, that the Jeep brand had a sign up to receive a "badge of honor" for participating. It's just an arbitrary collector badge (sticker or patch, I think) that people put on the vehicle or tool box, etc.

It's a cool idea and nothing is stopping you from downloading the app and checking out the trails and leveraging their ratings systems. https://www.jeep.com/badge-of-honor.html

"Badges?
We don't need no stinking badges"


They do look cool.

Or, double sided tape rear driver side window. 👍

I'll pass. First, I'm not impressed with rear windows with stickers that proclaim, "Look we're I've been!" My aesthetic is "modest, simple, functional." Like the song, "Little Deuce Coup," ..."you don't know what I got." Or where I've been.
Second, applying a logic akin to high school boys' sex bragging and veterans' combat stories, I figure the guys who talk the most probably have the least real history.

"least real history" is reserved for mall crawlers. but, your reference, "veterans' combat stories" may touch a nerve with others as well.

Agreed. The posters comments reminded me of a saying, better to remain silent and be thought an idiot, than to speak and remove all doubt.

Is this different from the sticker they slapped on my front windshield when we entered snowfest? I left it on but then realized that I am driving around with a sticker that has a jeep on it…🙃 We are headed to Twisted Trails in a few weeks for their Dog Party, their logo has an old Bronco on it so hopefully they have stickers for their event.

Everytime you buy an accessory, you get a window sticker. Lights, bumpers, winches, recovery gear, interior accessories, etc. etc.
And we're debating "badge of honor" stickers?
How about an M1A1 tank running over your stick figure family?
