Excellent video. Bronco prices continue to fall due to inventory glut of 23s and now 24s. One dealer in Florida with 112 of them on his lot. Wildtraks can now be had for $55-$58K (dealer demos and low mile resales) price range. Unless rock crawling is your thing the Wildtrak trim is the way to go for best combo of on and offroad comfort and performance.

Thanks for the review. I have a 2023 Badlands with 2.7 engine and only 4500 miles, but the car runs great and is smooth on the road. Averaging 18 mpg, but did see 21 on a long trip, with the stock 33 in tires.

Good thing I got my 23 2.7 BaseSquatch with three Ford private offers for a discount of 6,400 off MSRP of 46k to just under 40k. Benefits of being a day 3 reservationists.

[@outlawedmedia4336]

I thought the base model wasn't available for the 23 model year....

[@scottdaytonhunn]

@@outlawedmedia4336 last year of Base is 2023. I am also hoping that Ford will discontinue the 2-door.

welcome back to reality on car pricing

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

Indeed. Party is over.

[@jbnbdar3528]

This is a awesome vehicle I would consider it if it wasn’t so expensive maybe one day and it’s definitely higher quality than a jeep wrangler

[@Jimmy-zq2mj]

Great Father/Son video. How did you mount your front license plate?

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

Thanks for checking in. Very basic. Loosened the skid plate so it would drop a bit. Put in two self tapping screw on top of plate, out of sight.

[@jh276]

wait, is this your channel or your dad's? he did most of the talking. lol.... you guys are too 'cute'... like friends. awesome channel. keep it up!

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

It’s both of ours!

[@kingoftampa]

how did you get the black beadlock ring from the factory? i see them all the time, but my beadlocks are two tone. is it realated to trim package or something?

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

Bead lock capable not actual bead lock from factory.

[@getpower1]

Wildtraks get the black rings and all other Sasquatch package trucks get the silver rings.

[@typsytrae]

I notice you don’t have mudflaps on the bronco, do you have any rock chips along the front 2 doors with the sasquatch tires?

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

Not yet!!

[@christopherwilson1369]

@@PerformanceOnWheels no idea how you dont have any. do you have PPF ?

[@kingoftampa]

I have a 2 door SAS with no mud flaps, driven 26k miles in the past 8 months; no rock chips. I have not done ppf but im probably going to ceramic coat the entire truck Plastic, Paint, and Glass.

[@pumped2behere988]

Curious about the top cracking ?

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

Google bronco top cracking.

[@kingoftampa]

thats only on early 2021 trucks. my 2023 has the updated top with zero crackling.

[@christopherwilson1369]

get an exoshield for the window. saved my window several times

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

Will look into it! Thanks.

[@christopherwilson1369]

@@PerformanceOnWheelsI have the exo shield and aero skin II deflector, only had the deflector for the 1st 3-4 months. Then ordered an exo-shield. Took a hit the day after the exoshield arrived :(but before it was installed. Luckily it was repairable. and since then I have had 4-5 stone hits and even some ice and not a mark.

[@Arid379]

You are taller than the bronco. Why?

[@purpytwinzo4290]

😂

[@jbnbdar3528]

He’s not quite taller than bronco he looks to be about 6’4 6’5 but if he was, there’s nothing wrong with being tall everybody not 5’8

[@scottvanhoomissen4871]

What's with the kid's hands? He acts like they've been dipped in hot wax...

[@Thunderhead21]

I'll stick with my 30 year old jeep. Not full of computers and all the crap in these things. not to mention the price. no one crys when it smashes into a tree, quite the opposite with a 70k pavement princess.
