We traded our 4 Runner in for the Everglades model and love it, more rigged and AUX switches are great, so much easier to accessorize, Added the roof rack and rear cargo tray, Broaddict with rear rail gate table. Awesome ride for sure

[@NorthwestBronco]

Agreed. The bronco is a wonderful overlander. Looking forward to many more years!

[@ericgreenblatt196]

Had 2 Jeeps. Latest is an 08 4dr JK….. 292,000 miles-great vehicle. But worn out… thoroughly. But tried to buy a new Jeep…. And could not order one, and won’t consider that 4xe crap hybrid. Ordered a 24 Black Diamond Bronco….. 7 weeks to build, plus 2 weeks deliver. Plus $2k below MSRP….. after test driving…. Bronco is slightly better on road, and should be as good off road as my Jeep…. Which is a mid-level Sport. Thanks for the video….

[@NorthwestBronco]

Glad you are liking the Bronco. They are great trail drivers and road trippers for sure!

I own 4 Fords. A 2017 F250 Super Duty King Ranch, a 2018 Mustang GT Premium, a 2018 Shelby Mustang GT350, and a 2019 Ford Ranger Lariat. I bought all of them new and I have problems with all of them that started within weeks of driving them off the lot. Ford has fixed some of the problems, but most of them still exist even after Ford tried to fix them. I love the looks of the new Bronco, but I refuse to buy another Ford.

[@jaymoar3561]

Yeah after 4 I think that’ll be a good idea.

Ive had my Bronco Black Diamond with throwback steelies for 2 years also. Never had a problem. I have a file of recall notices for minor things which I've never addressed. Great video.

[@NorthwestBronco]

Love those steel wheels. No regrets making the swap. I have a list of recalls as well. But, non of them are worth the dealership and my time to fix. Pretty trivial stuff. The Black Diamond is the best looking Bronco in my opinion. I even switched to the BD grille. Maybe I should call my Bronco the BadDiamond.

[@davidvolland7250]

Just bought a 2023 black diamond here in 2024 would like to hear a few did any modifications and change anything out with the stereo and what kind of lighting you added to your vehicle

[@NorthwestBronco]

Congrats on your wonderful new Bronco! I have the Lux package with the B&O sound system so I've left the stereo alone. In regards to lighting, the interior is stock. I did add a LED strip on the inside of the back window for cooking. It just connects to a battery pack. The roof lights are from ZROADZ and the front ambers are for fog ect. They are Hella lights, but will be replaced shortly with Deltas. Hope this helps! @@davidvolland7250

[@BrianDoherty-e8s]

Two things that might cause the whistling noise when it is cold. 1. The window might not be closing completely. Such as it stops going up too early. Might be something stuck in the window weather stripping groove or it could be just too much friction of the glass sliding in the rubber and the load sensor in the window motor senses that and thinks the window is closed. You can apply some silicone spray to a twisted piece of paper towel and run that all around the window weather stripping groove to lube it. Silicone preserves and lubricates rubber. Maybe the window would close up all the way then. 2. Since the problem happens in the cold it could be a crease or twist in the door weather stripping. Or it could be a gap in joints of the door weather stripping. Again, silicone spray rubbed all around the door seal might help. Good luck!

[@NorthwestBronco]

The horn honking thing can be turned off with the key fob. If I remember correctly, you hold down the lock and unlock buttons for 3 seconds and then lock it at the end. That might not be exactly it, but there are multiple posts on the bronco forums about it.

[@NorthwestBronco]

[@tommygraham4036]

I finally found a solution to the whistling coming from the passenger window. I tried everything and it drove me nuts. The sound is coming from the top front corner of passenger window. It sounded like it was center to back of top of window. I cut a piece of hard foam into about a 2 inch long piece in a pencil like shape. Stuff it up in between the rubber seal and roof lip to make the front top corner fit tight. After months of adjusting front and back windows, applying lube to rubber seal, etc. This fixed it. Let me know if you have any questions.

[@NorthwestBronco]

I'll be giving that a try for sure. Thank you for the idea!

[@etmccaus]

I respect you not wanting to try de-programming the honks and chimes, but to me, the ability to easily do so without paying hundreds of dollars for dealer software or aftermarket tuning devices makes Bronco all the more endearing to me. Completely agree re: the volume pop-up; it's even more infuriating when I'm using phone projection and Sync has to layer over AA/ CP.

[@NorthwestBronco]

Great comment. Thank you!

[@gilbertferguson1685]

Thanks for the update. I had a 2022 Black Diamond with 2.3 engine and put 8000 miles on it, including a trip to Colorado Springs and Moab with no issues. I traded it for a 2023 Badlands with 2.7 engine, non sas and now have 4000 miles on it with no issues. I am even getting a little better gas mileage than with the 2.3 engine. I like the standard 33 in BF Goodrich K 02 tires on the Badlands because they are all terrain and not the mud terrain tires on the sas pkg.

[@NorthwestBronco]

I agree with the window whistling and the rock chucking Territory tires 100%. I also hate when the volume comes up on the screen. But I really don’t think it’s too hard to hit the ok button to return to GOAT mode. I have actually found it useful when I’ve left on a mode and returned to pavement and forgot to take it out. I put the steering bushing from Broncobuster on my Wildtrak and added the tie rod sleeves from Rough Country. I also added the Zone offroad perch collar lift but I find it has too much body roll. I’m going to remove them and try the Eibach 2.0 shocks which I just watched a video that said they may the rear of the vehicle feel wiggly but I already ordered them so I will test them out myself, since I am running stock size tires. The other issue I have is the lack of storage. I wouldn’t mind a wider Bronco with a large center console. I have 106,000 km on my Bronco. I do like it, but the whistling window drives me wild. Way too much road noise. For that reason I think I will buy a pickup after this one is miled out. The biggest surprise was how capable it is out the box. I had 2019 Chevy High country before this and the turbo six is a very comparable. I thought I would notice huge power losses but that’s not the case. I would not buy one with a removable roof if I had the choice. I enjoy the ac and keeping clean and I have had roof leaks in the carwash. The seats are fairly comfortable. I have gone on several trips over 1000km and I was comfy the whole way.

[@NorthwestBronco]

Great comment there. Please let us know about the Eibach 2.0 shocks. I've been eyeing those for over a year and would love to hear what you have to say. They are adjustable correct?

[@ryangillies5279]

LOL very true. They are 315/70R17. The exact same size tire as the SAS tires.

[@steveb8883]

We have 2 Wildtraks. A 2 door and a 4 door. We love them. I have had Rubicons in the past and prefer the Bronco. As far as the tie rods. I think Ford is hoping warranties expire and they don't have to replace the HOSS 2 set ups that never should have been on the Bronco. The new ones come with HOSS 3 and it is supposed to be better. I am going to upgrade both to either the HOSS 3, 74 Weld or Bronco Buster steering rack and tie rods eventually. They are pricey though. How do you like the frameless windows? I would prefer framed windows. That would solve most of the problems we have with them presently. Overall, it is a great competitor to Jeep and can go anywhere I have been in a Rubicon.

[@NorthwestBronco]

Well said indeed. The windows are fine except for the whistling from my passenger window when it's cold. Thank you for the comment!

You put the rims from a black Diamond on your badlands? So does that mean I can also put 35’s on my stock black Diamond rims? No rub issues? Of course I think yours is lifted though.

[@NorthwestBronco]

I don’t have a lift. The suspension is completely factory SAS. I’d assume if you have a black diamond with a Sasquatch package you will be fine. If you don’t have a sas package, you would need a 2” lift. Hope this helps!

[@kevjohn811]

It does help. Thank you. Mine is non sas so I’ll look into a lift then first

I just found your channel and subscribed not because of this review but because of your overlanding. I have a 2021 Jeep Wrangler Sport EcoDiesel but I like to know what problems and upgrades others are having with their Broncos or 4Runners. My Wrangler does not have lockers but I can probably go anywhere you go on an overlanding trip unless you are doing hard core rock crawling. So, it works for me. It seems a lot of people buy a Jeep or Bronco that is way more capable than they will ever use. So, whether it is a Bronco or a Jeep just go off road and have fun. But I will not "Jeep Wave" a Bronco in fact I don't Jeep Wave a Grand Cherokee or Liberty either.

[@NorthwestBronco]

As I've stated in my videos, you don't need a Badlands or Rubicon to do the type of exploring in my videos. BUT I wanted a capable vehicle since indeed I'm solo on my trips and 20+ miles away from pavement. Any basic 4 wheel drive with GOOD tires and a bit of extra fuel is the most important thing.
