    It’s such a great looking suv. Especially the 2-door but it looks INCREDIBLE with the hardtop removed!

    Oh and I hope they come out with a leveling kit for them if they don’t already have one... the rake on them drives me nuts not only on the bronco but any trucks jeeps etc.

    I know it’s pricey doing it this way but I’d say best top for the summer months and back to the hard top for the winter months.

    Are you happy with the Oxford White? I was maybe thinking of switching it to the Area 51 color. I have the same configuration except I ordered the 2.7 with the modular front bumper. The tint and the powder coated wheels are a must.

    • @DerekBonzagni
      @DerekBonzagni  2 года назад

      Yes on the Base model it pops all the black. Area 51 is my personal favorite but wasn’t available on a base in 21

    Nice 2 door bronco bro... can’t wait for my 2 door to arrive. Not really a fan of the 4 door! The two door to me looks more like the original one. Got mine in Area 51 mid package Sasquatch package 2.7 Good idea powder coating the rings on the wheels... I was thinking the same exact thing!. Hoping they can get it close to the Area 51 color with the black wheels I think that will look sharp! Thx for he hard top removal video 👍

    They need to make 2&4 door bronco trucks basically no rear seats no roll bars. Just a top that comes off

    • @DerekBonzagni
      @DerekBonzagni  2 года назад +1

      Agreed. I’m sure there are some safety protocols that won’t allow it without the roll bars.

    Hi Derek! Where u get the black wheel rings? They look good. I also have a 4 door Badlands 2.7 Sasquatch. I also have an order for a base 2 door with the 2.7, but watching your vid and other vids make me want to change to the 2.3 engine and save money, but I do want the fastest engine in a 2 door. Would u have changed the engine in your 2 doors if u can do it again?

    • @DerekBonzagni
      @DerekBonzagni  2 года назад +4

      Hey there, I took them off and had them powdercoated! The 2.7 with the extra torque is going to make that 2 door feel great no doubt and will be faster. The 2.3 with the 10 speed and sasquatch gearing moves this thing just fine for me. The sound and power of the V6 is worth it if you like extra power and the sweeter sound vs the vacuum cleaner noise that comes out of mine. The 2.3 advantage is it's lighter on the front end giving the bronco better balance and slightly less nose dive on braking, the maintenance is slightly less, and fuel economy is maybe 1-2 mpg better. It's all personal preference, I'm happy with the 2.3.

    Do the factory running boards you have there do an adequate job of protecting against rock chips? I hear those Goodyears like to throw rocks up the side.
    I’ve got the same build but with the 2.7 showing up in a couple weeks.

    • @DerekBonzagni
      @DerekBonzagni  Год назад +1

      They help slightly, the good years do throw rocks so I have paint protection film on the bottom 6 inches of the door and entry. The rocks can make it through the fender flare and steps so I wouldn’t it’s the greatest for blocking rocks.

    • @edwardfuller3952
      @edwardfuller3952 Год назад +1

      They also make some really nice mud flaps for the bronco too to prevent rocks chips. And there not to big either... perfect size. I’ve already been shopping for little things here & there for when mine arrives...

      @@DerekBonzagni that’s awesome!! I’m in North Carolina and I haven’t really made any good dealer contacts yet but I’m workin on it. I know these trucks are in high demand, so I may need to wait. But I’m pretty set on the blue 2 door with Sasquatch. I’m a bird photographer so it would help me get out in nature. I like the Jeep so far but it’s getting old and I’m concerned it’s gonna start breaking down since it has 126k miles on it. But I dig the open top. Do you think going with carvana or carmax would save money over the other dealers? I see their prices are actually a little more reasonable in some cases. But that would be slightly used. I’ll see how it goes. Thanks.

      @@gary_michael_flanagan_wildlife caravan, carmax and all the others use auctions and customers looking to score big in the current market so at the end of the day the market is going to dictate the value of a vehicle. Like the housing industry there is more demand than supply causing Dealers to have to purchase at a premium to keep stock so used will usually be more on those in demand models. If you can waiting and order one at msrp you’ll be in good shape but the cost not to wait is due to demand.

      250 to 300 average. The price will depend on your local shop and location. I removed them myself which isn't hard just make sure you have some leverage as they have lock tight on from the factory.
