New guy here

Just picked my new to me 25 up yesterday! I work in the diesel field repairing my favorite ford trucks and feel in love with it the moment I saw it. Me and the wife wanted another Bronco (his and hers kinda thing) but I couldn’t resist this after driving it! The power coming from the diesel world is pretty impressive I’ll have to admit! Can’t wait to see what kinda trouble we get into with this thing….

Congrats and welcome! Get a tune and intercooler, and she’ll really scoot!

Welcome, power tends to corrupt, absolute power corrupts absolutely, just keep the shiny side up and tires planted

Well fellas I made it about a week and a half all stock lol.

Intercooler, charge pipes, lowering springs, sway bar and diff brace are on the way!!

Ordered tunes and my mpvi3 crapped out on me so I’m waiting for tunes to be sent so I can go around the TDN stuff. (Should have know better cause I fought it on my street truck) but can’t wait to put it all on this weekend!!!!! More pics to come

Out of all this what would a Dealer complain about warranty wise

 

[Gadgtfreek]

The aftermarket part is not warranty. Putting an exhaust on doesnt void a transmission, but obviously they aren't fixing the aftermarket exhaust lol. Same with suspension, CAI, and so on. The big one is always the tune, adding a whipple. or larger turbos (power increase). If they pull the software and see it's tuned, and you trash a motor or tranny, expect to be denied. Now, would tuning ruin either daily driving? Nah, I've tuned everything I've had since the early 2000s, but I also don't keep vehicles more than 3-4 years. That being said, if you're going to the drag strip to race, always have a budget for a motor and tranny. If not, leave it alone.


I've done the Thermal; the rear sway bar is next, and I'll wrap up with a FP tune (I'm fine with half the power of the custom tunes; it's a daily driver). It's probably done after that. I love the car.

The dealers complain about anything and will void it no matter what, I do know the owners and the sons at my local place and help them out with the diesel trucks sometimes so if I have an issues hopefully they will help me out some. But I didn’t buy it to not have some fun!!

Some dealers will be that petty, but they are few and far between. I’ve never encountered them yet and I’ve been to a lot of them.
