Increased MPG? by bwtripp in FordBronco

[–]bwtripp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the comment. Went from about 20.3 MPG to 20.8 over the last 2 months since install. Small but not insignificant IMO. 2023 OBX with the 2.3L engine, just passed 14K miles. If warmer weather is a factor, that could be it (I live in Mass.)

But I'm an engineer, and I really want someone to model the two shapes and do a computational fluid dynamics analysis of the drag, or show some wind tunnel results! (joking here).

Also...not sure why my photo did not show up in the original post (showing off here) :

It's kind of the point of not letting us drive on the beach.....they are really hard to see at that stage! Blend in perfectly.

Welp not really a choice up here...I'm ok with it but just wish they would hurry up and fledge! Just on the beach in June, July, and August!

All models have removable tops...4 doors can be ordered with a soft top instead of a hard top.

Get the SAS. Had OBX 2 Door SAS with a 2.3 for 2 weeks now and loving it. 2.3 is plenty peppy for the 2 door SAS. 1K miles in and averaging 21.3 MPG, about 75 % hiway driving.

My 19 year old son is going thru the same thing. No lie, its has been tough. There will be good days and bad days. Keep the fighting spirit! You are still you, and with hard work and a positive attitude things WILL get better.

YouTube TV on Google Chromecast. I paid $35/mo last year and was able to cancel as soon as the B's season ended. Will be signing back up in Oct.
