So how did you get the brake cover on?

I went to Ford and said I’ll buy my next car from you if you put these on. They laughed. The manager put them on. It took him 3 minutes but he said it was not easy.

It’s just brute strength to stretch the hard rubber. The manager suggested that on a hot day, set it in the sun and it will become more flexible.

Note, when putting them on, the break pedal has a cover that needs removed, whereas, the gas pedal does not.

Drove to New Hampshire, for the off rodeo at gunstock Mountain yesterday. Did the rodeo today. Also did one of New Hampshire is class 6 roads yesterday and saw a ton, of turkeys. Must have been 2 dozen total, with a dozen or so in one group just a few feet off the road And they just stay there as you drive-by. In Virginia, on the rare occasion you see one in the mountains you’re lucky to get within 30 yards of it.

I was looking at TuffSkinz lettering on ford website. How was application? How do you feel about the look? (looks good in pics but I know perspective can differ in person). Also, where did you order? Ford only has matte black but ideally l'd like gloss black

Here's my posts and a few pics of the TufSkinz overlays: https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/installing-new-lettering-on-the-tailgate-of-bronco-sport-factory-lettering.6481/post-127007

For me, it's more of a "want" than a need. My understanding is, they are/were standard on the BS higher end trims. They were never standard on the Base or BB.

Gotcha... We haven't gotten ours yet (still on order). So, do the BadLands come standard with that already?

I'm not sure... I think so. When you pickup your Bandlands... If it's not there, I'd ask about it.

learned a few things along the way

when the Harbor Freight guy says
..........the box was opened
..........but we checked
..........all the parts are there
don't believe him

interior fuse panel
slot 15 & 16 (spare)
micro3 fuse
fuse tap in this slot was a slight challenge
stuck with that slot for sole purpose of the defeating the bastard

if the safety chain is too narrow to accept the hook pin
3 lb mallet removes the oval shape just enough
rounds out the link enough for the pin

Today’s NH class 6 road report, after yesterday’s off rodeo. Got suggestions from several locals on roads to try. We needed Every but of yesterday‘s training, our traction boards, to clear some rocks and our electric chainsaw to get some downed trees from across the road. Lots of spotting, scouting ahead and use of trail control. Pics are Some signs we encountered on the way out of one road and one road we didn’t enter. And, two of The people doing today’s rodeos cars.

VMS 20 RED 44MM ALUMINUM CLOSED END TUNER LUG NUTS LUGS WHEELS RIMS 12X1.5 SET | eBay

I've been using the same basic set on my Fiesta ST for `4 years, except for that car they are orange. Really nice, don't corrode, and I've never had one come loose. But you do want to hand-tighten (no impact wrenches).

Once the weather warms, I'm probably going to paint the calipers red as well.

A grand for lug nuts? Are you lug NUTZ?
