Nice, and the correct number of doors too. LOL We'll give @85_Ranger4x4 a pass since he's got a kid and, technically, it's his wife's ride. FWIW, the JB4 tuner makes my 2.7 pretty snappy, but I do keep 92 or 93 octane in it. Averaging about 22 mpg on level 3. The only mods I've done besides the tuner are fog lights, door pockets and the autostop eliminator. Plus a couple of Forscan tweaks. No real offroading yet, but plan to when I can get the time. Right now mine's just a fun DD.

Since you bring it up... the Bronco makes some sweet power.
The Ranger is advertised as 270hp and 310ft lbs.. but what they don't exactly tell you is that those figures are only If you fill it up with 91. If you run it on 87 like I did, they only make about 240hp/270tq.. still plenty of power.. with all that torque by 3k rpm they move out pretty well.
The bronco though... running on the cheap swill we call 87 octane allows for 275hp and 315tq. 91+ and it'll make 300hp/325tq.
I didn't realize this when I bought it. I was under the assumption that it made the exact same power as the ranger. Needless to say... I was pretty damn excited when I found out lol. +35hp and +45tq over the ranger.. and it weighs around 700lbs LESS than the ranger.. she SCOOTS!
I'm excited to finish break-in and fill it up with 93.
Definitely my favorite color for the Bronco.. it's a shame it was only available for the first 2 years.IMHO, You've got right color!
