Love how you were able to break everything down into simpler terms!!

[@VaughnGittinJr]

Thanks!!

[@age.1998]

these are real teachers 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@anthony_sasquatch8056]

well done!

[@ItsJustMeStevie]

Thanks for this. Extremely helpful. I haven’t owned a car in 10 years but am moving from the city to the desert and a Bronco sounds about right.

[@beyondmaintenance]

Press and hold the traction control… thanks. ✌🏽😎

[@OutOfOfficeCamping]

So great to see you switching it up. We love the mix content. Could you now cover the Ford Ranger Please 🙂 Thank you Mark (& Teresa) Jason & Marci friends.

[@mikemckenna4993]

Super helpful! Thanks.

[@ashleyrankin2456]

Another great video

[@patrick335i]

GREAT vid guys!!!!

[@KhoiCPhish]

I’m new to this, great video! Helps us beginners so much

[@stormsturckow]

Ya'll rock. Keep these coming. Super well done and simplified. It would be great to get one on how to best utilize the 360-degree cameras when wheeling solo.

[@cajuclc]

Awesome video. Thanks!

[@Cataroux]

Great video! I don’t own a bronco yet but I appreciate it even more now and can’t wait until I get mine!

[@FireBallTheBronco]

Great video! Will definitely help the newbies understand the hero switches. Looks like you were at Uwharrie. Hope to see you out there once my Bronco arrives (a month... maybe?)

[@CraaaigV302]

Wow iv been wanting a bronco this just made me want one even more

[@VaughnGittinJr]

After the other episodes come out I think you'll be all in!

[@GB.Bronco]

Vaughn & Loren, GREAT video! For your next episode, you guys should cover G.O.A.T. modes! The way you laid out this video, makes an awsome teaching tool that I've been sharing with the Michigan Bronco Club. We have a lot of Newbs and when we host our events at Holly Oaks ORV park and other parks, we teach classes to our new members on how to enjoy their Broncos. This Hero switch video is a great intro to our members and other enthusiasts! Please do a goat mode video!

[@DanielReyesDReyesPT]

Awsome vid thanks

[@chrisohm3763]

The technology Ford stuck in the Bronco is unreal! Been to Offroadeo, but watching this is a great refresher! Next you should do a video on how to set the cruise to climb and desend hills without toucjing the brake or throttle!! Keep up the awesome videos

[@Jimmyboy2141]

Awesome. Thanks

[@rogerrivera4575]

Awesome thanks 🐎

[@keithfitterer6899]

Nice video, thank you. I was interested in the traction control switch which was off when we attended the bronco off rodeo event with the bronco badlands. I wanted a better explanation on when to use it.

[@jjhernandez5244]

Keep the rear locker and sway bar disconnect when going under 20 miles, got it 💪💪🤙

[@Mark-lq3sb]

Great video. I'll wait to buy my two door Bronco. By then the aftermarket will catch-up with full engine swaps. Can you image a two door with a ford 7.3L (445 cubic inches.) and a manual transmission. Good fun!

[@adamwebber9547]

Guys really appreciate your breakdown of the switches, intent, and considerations especially for the front locker. I've done small amount of off road with the military but never used lockers. Also, I noticed it looked like you also REINGAGED the swaybar under load - did I catch that right? Again, thanks for making this video - looking for anything you guys put out.

[@VaughnGittinJr]

Glad you enjoyed! The superior thing with this sway bar disconnect system is that you can disengage and reengage at anytime whether loaded or not. Have fun

[@a36538]

I love the editing and how you guys got right down to brass tacks, no silly intro we have to ffwd through. A+ content! Question on the trail turn assist, is it expected that while using it - it just feels weird? Kinda like a 4Runner on atrac? If you could could speak more to the experience of what it feels/sounds like from the drivers POV that would be helpful for us amateurs. It’s like.. is it supposed to sounds like this? 😅

[@VaughnGittinJr]

Thanks! Yes you will hear like a springing sound which is the Abs working the brakes/wheels as needed . It feels like a wheel is dragging.

[@1217heaven]

Vaughn do you plan to make a sway bar quick disconnect manual version for people to buy who didn't get the electronic version?

[@godlesslife8382]

i dont have a bronco but my favorite hero switch is for the cut outs that you didnt mention.

[@MrCaseykno]

When are those fun-haver parts dropping? Been waiting for thoose rock sliders

[@technicaldisasters]

Have you done a video on the proper way to lift a bronco? I overheard Lauren giving advice at Bronco Super Cell, but I was to far away to catch all the details.

[@VaughnGittinJr]

We have plenty more coming!

[@jamessuman2151]

Man they are so well equipped and capable with just tyres, it'd be real hard to go past one if they brought them to aus

[@ronbbaker]

I have the 7 speed manual Badlands, so no trail turn assist. I wish I did! I assume they were concerned with stalling or do you think there was a different reason?

[@ramseylittle5324]

I’m in Walmart shopping but let’s goo notification squad 😂lol

[@zacharyfike1071]

Good ol Uwharrie.

[@President-jv5kz]

Wouldn’t mind the sport version too😅

[@jonathanfaulds9645]

So what's the best mode for deep heavy snow??

[@saharnotsarah]

If I don't have front or rear lockers can I ride the brakes? What's the best alternative? Bronco Big Bend non-Sasquatch

[@mpeugeot]

My favorite hero switch is the throttle, 😂.

[@badlanz2]

You guys going to be at SEMA this year?

[@VaughnGittinJr]

Yep!

[@badlanz2]

Somebody trolling your comments…I would love to think I won something but looks like someone is dropping in on your stream! 😮

[@launceherron]

Awesome.... let's talk about why ford doesn't offer cooled seats in the Bronco

[@VaughnGittinJr]

I don’t have that answer!

[@launceherron]

@@VaughnGittinJr I really didn't think you could, I'm just throwing it out there... they built such an amazing vehicle, has all this bad ass tech, but no ventilated seats, really ford come on....

[@geoffreyfagan1798]

Hey Vaughn and Loren, I'm a newb and FINALLY got my bronco, badlands with a stick. In a future-how-to, can you address 1) use of crawl gear, 2) what goat modes do when there are no shift points to change, and 3) how to make a tight turn without trail turn assist? Subscribing in hope, and thanks for this channel.

[@eriklarson9137]

Seems like most of the videos on this channel are really just commercials. :(

[@twistedstyles]

Don't be a hero

[@Venerablenesses]

bLaRg?!
