- 2023 Bronco Sport (ordered 8/11/22)
No major mechanical modifications, just connivence items.
1. Added an integrated pivot ball for a phone mount from Course Motorsport (install thread).
2. Fresh set of Drop Stop between two front seats. Used these for nearly 9 years on my Explorer and saved many of items going down between seat and console.
3. Cabinet door hook over side of console storage (I have a black metal one coming to replace the white plastic version). Why? Wifes idea, to hold her purse strap and keeps it in place at her feet. This hook is for a cabinet, not a room door hook.
4. Cargo tray linear installed in back.
5. Will be installing rear bumper protector when I get a chance.
6. Ford roof rack cross bars
7. Purchased the side vent turn signals from Tectico. But the design of it (plastic part) is not the quite the same as the original part regarding the smooth gray portion. I got the carbonized gray roof and it looks similar to that color. So still deciding if I want to keep that little bit of original detail.
8. Storage tray that sits behind the infotainment screen on the dashboard.

Used my points to get the cargo cover and bumper protector, also got the rubber seat-backs.
Now I just need to figure out how to get the bumpers and bottom plastic pieces back to looking new(ish). Is a basic trim restorer the best for that?

Not really today but 1/19/23.
Traded it.
Mine was a daily driver mostly in town. (never had the opportunity to take off road at all) and being an OB had the 1.5L 3cyl. To me this was the "little engine that could", and was fine for my needs, BUT when (as many of you know) it was under light load (in stop/go traffic, school zones, parking lots, etc) it would drop to two cylinder mode. Mine then had a subtle vibration ( like "lugging" a manual transmission). I looked far and wide and could not find any mention of a "tune" or forscan way to shut down this feature. Maybe it was my old Navy Helo pilot vibration sensitive butt, but it really irritated me. I did drive one prior to ordering, but failed to notice this issue.
Then came the possible fuel injector leak recall. I've already expressed my feelings on Ford's "fix" for this issue so will not go there again. I see now there is a coming class action law suit on that.
I sold my 14 Mustang convertible when used car prices were crazy in mid-late 2021 to get my BS/OB.
I looked at ordering a new Badlands, but just didn't want to wait that long. Found a just off the truck "left over" 2022 Mustang dealer had nicely discounted and after some
back/forth (way better than x-plan) he offered me a very attractive trade, so I did it. He had a new 22 Badlands on the lot, but wanted to move the Mustang much more as he had several 23s already. Dealer promptly put my BS/OB on the lot as "certified" (6500 miles) at a price $3K more than the MSRP sticker. Think it sold this past weekend.
I'll still be visiting this forum pretty much daily as there still may be a Badlands (for the 4 cyl) in my future, as well as watching any mentioning of issues with the injector leak recall hose installation.
Learned lots from many nice folks on this forum. Stay safe all.

Added 1.25” wheel spacers. I think it lines up a lot better after adding the bushwhacked flares. As always, I apologize I suck with a camera but hopefully you can see how they are no longer looking recessed into the vehicle.
Also, I think it improves handling.
