Anyone else having trouble keeping their broncos from overheating in this ridiculous heat? Suppose to be 114 here tomorrow. Never thought I would want it to be in the 90's so bad!

Welcome to what we experiance for most of the summer here in AZ. If your cooling system is in good shape you shouldnt have any issues. I wheel sometimes in this heat and my bronco was a daily driver in the heat until 2003 and never had issues.

I feel for you guys. My inlaws live in Sapulpa and where out here in SoCal last weekend for my son's birthday. We live a mole from the beach. We had dinner on our patio and my FIL asked to barrow a flannel to put on as he was chilly. He was lovin the weather out here. That heat is going to kill deer season where we hunt in Eastern OK.

ok and az

when i moved to lake havasu city az i sold my 911 because it was too hot to drive an air cooled engine there, i was there 7 years and hated all 7. i lived in ok city and found out just how hot it can get there. now i live in mid missouri and just bought the 73 in the photo, no ac, it was 111 here yesterday and i am going nuts wanting to drive my new toy. i check out the weathjer forecast every day, but it seems like its going to be next month before we get any real relief. all we can do is to try to stay out of the heat and wait it out.

I dont have any issues with mine over heating right now because I have not driven it in about a month if not more. In this heat I honestly do not try to drive it because it does get to a point where I do not want to loook.
