To all of the Bronco owners that have automatic transmissions…you are missing out. The manual is the way to go! It’s twice as much fun!

This is literally one of the best, if not THE best, Bronco videos on the internet regarding the manual transmission. I can't thank you enough for uploading this video. Y'all are legends

I love my 7MT Bronco Badlands, it is an absolute gem and hill descent control is a wonderful tool. I wheel mine nearly every weekend and having the 4.7 with the crawler gear in 4L is something to write home about. It's a freaking tractor.

Daaaamn that auto-restart after a clutch stall is revolutionary!!

Driving this exact Bronco at the off-road experience convinced me to change my order to the manual transmission!

This is great - I'm sure all the engineers that slaved over these features are happy to have them showcased!

Damn these smart features are a game changer!

This is hands- down the best video I've seen about the manual trans! My bronco fever just went up a couple of degrees, can't wait to actually be able to get one! Def getting the 2-door badlands non-squatch with manual, just gotta make up my mind about the color!

THANK YOU... I learned so much! The Ford sales people know absolutely nothing about these features (at the two dealerships near me). This is THE best training. Glad I found your channel. 👍🏆

I’ve had a lot of vehicles. Nothing compares to my MT Bronco Badlands. Thanks for the video.

Awesome video, guys. Thanks so much. Late to the party but just got my 7M Badlands .....

I haven’t had a ford truck in over 20 years, but I just picked up the 2022 Bronco Black Diamond and I absolutely love it! Such a beautiful vehicle and so many cool features. Looks like I’m a Ford guy once again.

Manual forever !!! 🥇🏆👍💪

Great vid, as I have been waiting FOREVER for my 7-speed Bronco. Went to the Bronco school...but no stick shifts....so really enjoyed this.

Great video. I have a 2d base manual Bronco. First manual transmission. This video helped answer some questions I had about my manual Bronco

I also have a manual 4d badlands, the only feature I wish it had is auto blip when you downshift to smooth out your downshifts.

You did a great job of explaining all the features of this new car. I've watched some other Bronco videos and shut them down after 3 minutes. Some of these guys have no clue how to drive a stick. Quite cringe worthy in the extreme. Good work!

There is something about the sound of that 4 cylinder too, it just sounds so retro it really matches the Bronco look and a very capable engine

This is fantastic insight into the 7MT! Was always going to get one but nice to have the education. I’m forwarding this to my dealer so he can education others too :)

Thanks for the Hill Decent tutorial. I tried and failed to figure out how to use it on my own without instructions.

I love the manual. The hill assist and auto blip are so awesome.

great job explaining how the 7-speed works. i can’t wait to try it out. thanks.

Great video, after watching this I have no doubt that ordering the MT for my new Bronco was the correct choice.

Excellent information thank you! One thing that is almost NEVER talked about is the way you describe how the vehicle responds when letting off the clutch. I didn’t realize this was an “anti-stall” type of feature. I’ve noticed some cars requiring a bit of gas on clutch lift off while many don’t. I could never explain what this was to ask car salespeople, but none of them seem to know enough about their cars to explain it. Thanks!

Great video.. very informative that manual transmission is miles ahead of what i expected

Wow! This was way more informative than I expected! Thank you!

We lost brakes on a hill stall was pretty scary thanks for the tip

Was hesitant on buying the 7 speed as I’m not very fluent but want to get fluent and this helps make my decision to go with it

You beat me to the punch on this one! I am going to make a similar video going over the features of the “modern manual” in my Bronco.

Freaking GREAT !!!!!!!!! Video Bros !!!!!!!!! Nice touch on adding everything we need to know !! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

as far as the anti stall goes, you can do that in almost any manual trans vehicle. I have a 30 year old 4 cylinder and I never touch the gas when inching forward or doing very slow movements on level grade. seems like a feature for people who cant drive stick that well.

Great video! I love how factual and to the point it was. Sooo many videos are filled with side comments and opinions. Definitely subscribed, you two are cool!

I just picked up my 7 speed Big Bend and this is a super helpful tutorial on how to get the most out of my manual transmission…Keep on crawlin’ Bronco Nation!!

The last manual I owned was my '98 Ranger 4x4, which I received from the factory in late '97 and traded in during the summer of '05. It was a 5-speed stick shift and didn't have any of the innovations Scott demonstrated in this video. I have an order in for a 2022 non-Squatch 4-door Bronco with a 2.3L Ecoboost and automatic transmission. I was tempted to go for the manual and I still have a soft-spot in my heart for manuals but at my advanced age of 60 I just don't feel like fussing around with a clutch and manually up and down shifting everywhere I go. My Bronco will be my only vehicle after it arrives. I hope I get my build week soon as I had a Day-2 reservation and first ordered my Bronco in January of 2021. I ordered it with a MIC top and towing package, which are both features that can slow an order. I also ordered a Lux package and originally had ordered the PPF from the factory, which Ford dropped for anyone who didn't have a Wildtrak a few months ago. I also indicated to Ford I was interested in the Bronco Raptor and got a "golden ticket", but after I talked to my salesman about ordering one he indicated they would mark it up about $20K. I could have shopped around for a better deal but I didn't really want or need a Raptor. I'm leaving the towing package in my Badlands order for now as the factory towing package is much cheaper than getting it installed piecemeal by my dealer as 2 accessories (hitch + wiring harness). The accessory version also only comes with a 4-pin harness whereas the factory package has a 4-pin and 7-pin harness. You can now get a Trailer Brake Towing pack as an accessory, but it requires a 7-pin harness. It would be essential if I opt to buy an off-road trailer for my Bronco. In the meantime I'll keep driving my '07 Sport Trac.

Awesome video. Wonderfully put together and answers all the important questions that Ford didn't bother to answer. Thank You!!!!!!!

Literally one of the best videos! Thank you so much!

Love seeing Scott and #8. Great video!

This was a great demo! Thank you so much.

Hey guys, great video! My wife is getting her 2022 manual today and I shared this video for her. Awesome job.

Well done sir. Nice work.

Very informative video, as finally decided to order a manual 2 door badlands sasquatch, I was told by the dealer there not taking any orders until 2024...

Fantastic video! Thank you!

This reaffirms my current manual driving experience in my bronco. Great video!

Very informative. Thank you

I love that the clutch and brake pedal are from a 90s ford escort 🤘

Really neat video (and fills me with regret that I couldn't quite swing a manual Sasquatch). Only thing else I would have liked to see is the "start in gear" function.

Hey I drove that vehicle at the Bronco experience in Rockford IL. Great video guys.

Excellent content!

This was amazing. I miss having a manual so bad and to see how easy they've made them to use these days is incredible. I had no clue about how the crawl gear worked for start and stop traffic (which is usually the reason people avoid manuals these days). Fantastic video with great info. Thanks, gents.

I love this vehicle. I want to learn how to drive manual.

In my long previous comment I forgot to mention how much I liked this video! Scott did a great job of illustrating all these handy features!

Great Video with Scott. I love my 2022 manual 2 door BadSquatch it’s really impressive! I’m amazed with the technology this vehicle has introduced. Thank you again for showcasing all the features its great information.

Awesome stuff Gents. Thanks!

my favorite feature is " drop a gear and disappear" only on manuals

This was an awesome video!

Wow nice!

Great video!!

Scott is the man!! Rode with him in Rockford and taught me a lot. Mainly I should have gone for the manual! Keep up the great videos!!

I accidentally stalled climbing a hill at one of the Bronco events because I didn't quite downshift out of 2nd fast enough. Was really cool when it spun back up on it's own when I stabbed the clutch. First thing I do is disable the god-awful 3-second hill hold though. It's annoying beyond belief in the Mustang, and will be so in the Bronco as well. If I punch the clutch with no foot on the break, I want it to roll. I was foolish enough to order the impossible to build BASE model over a year ago, so who knows when Ford will get around to building it.

Very useful tips! Thanks for sharing these. I'm currently waiting on my Bronco to be built and to be fair, it's an automatic, but if Ford has me rebuild my Bronco for MY 23, I may opt for the I4 with 7 gears instead.

Is there a reason why to use hill decent in neutral rather than in gear?

" FRICTION POINT " IS THE KORRECT NAME/TERMINOLOGY WHEN CLUTCH ENGAGES TRANNY/ GRANNY GEARS AND CRAWLER >> CREEPER GEAR AS ITS CALLED,, IS DAH REAL KORRECT TERM BY 4X4 TRUCKERS AND ME 50+ YEARS !!

Love my Manual Transmission Badlands. One thing you missed is that the annoying electric parking brake does have the convenience of automatically disengaging as you drive off. However I’m curious to know if it’s possible to roll start a new Bronco with a dead battery. I’ve always owned manuals and I’ve been saved by the roll start on several occasions. But maybe it’s not possible with the push button start tech.

Can you the crawler gear in 2H and do you release the clutch the same as 1,2,3 etc gears?

Man, back in the day, almost stalling is what Ford did best!

I have a 2022 black diamond with 7 speed manual.Has your bronco started the grinding sound at cold idol .I have 1800 miles on mine. I'm a little sick about it .What do you think?

Dude! Mo much easier than old school.

How does it go up and down on those same hills in the snow? Have a super steep driveway that is 2/10 of a mile and would be curious how it would be in the winter.

I drove MT and was kinda disappointed in performance. AT feels a bit better. Maybe I need to try it again

Auto-blip/start-stop: First two features I would turn off.

What about start in gear?

Get it tuned yet?

Rather have the auto. And the people who want a manual don’t need this video. But hey hope you got paid.
