My tire gauge gets more action than I do!

That makes a great pair! I’ve had my pair almost 3 years now. They complement each other perfectly!

I use mine for a pencil tire gauge. More often than not, it’s laying down on the bottom and not hanging where it should.

Congratulations. The Badlands was a good choice. But then, I am slightly biased. I don’t think you will have any regrets.

The issue is the mpg reported by the Bronco in the gauges is not very accurate. You are much better off hand calculating over several tankfuls to get an accurate reading. I use the Fuelly app to monitor both fuel and service inputs to the vehicle.

For an Outer Banks with a 1.5l motor, I’d say that is low. My Badlands with a 2.0l gets normally 22-24 around town and 27-30 on the highway.

I think most openers have had rolling codes since the ‘90. It just takes a bit of messing around to get them to work. @Dude spells it out pretty well above if my memory serves me correctly (which can be variable these days!)

Or how heavy of feet you have! I’m pretty heavy on the brakes to offset the heavy right foot! I’m normally in the 50k-60k range for front brakes and 120k for rear brakes. Fortunately, I haven’t had to rebuild a set of calipers in over 50 years. Just replace the rotors and pads and drums and...

Could be, just doesn’t go when starting to accelerate.

I’ve had occasions on my 2022 BL where it has appeared to stumble on acceleration.

I’ve done it. As long as you have a lighted vanity mirror, it’s plug and play.

My 2022 Badlands came with a “full size” spare that was not the same size as the optional tires I had ordered with the vehicle. Obviously, Ford feels it is not an issue if the tires are not exactly the same size for temporary usage. I did choose to buy a used Badlands rim and the same Falken...

I use SiriusXM on CarPlay exclusively. I can bounce between fm stations and XM stations.

I’m on the $3 a month plan. It’s based on the Lexus but using the app let’s me use it on either of the Broncos. This is my second cycle of $3/month for three years. Prior to that it was $4 or $5 per month but every year I had to haggle with them to keep the price. I can get similar stations...

Mine have been out since day 1. I did the same with the Escape.
