Today when I was pulling my utility trailer down the highway I decided I would try turning the traction control off see if they felt a difference or anything and when you have your traction control off I don’t know if it just is the case if you’re pulling a trailer or not, but then my cruise...

I don’t have that much space I could maybe get one strip of 3/8 backer rod, but it would be sticking out. I notice on those other gaps they have a hollow rubber filler poked in there probably for the same reason, I know because I blew the end out with my pressure washer but I just poked it back...

It was trickier than I expected

Well, the best thing is to see if you fit before you take it for a drive because once you start driving it whether you fit or not might not be the selling feature. When I was vehicle shopping the week before I bought my bronco sport Badlands I took a Mazda CX 50 for a drive. I really wanted to...

We’ve gone on 3+ hour drives and I have no problems with it. It does have noticeable wind noise which is to be expected with a square vehicle, but I can’t imagine it being worse than a pick up truck. The front seats are comfortable for us. I wouldn’t subject anyone to sit in the backseat for...

I would like body coloured fender flares

As far as Joe Biden goes, he had to deal with Covid and the biggest mistake he made was minimizing the effect that it had on the economy and then getting bitten when things just didn’t bounce back to normal. The way things...

Get a small flat tire repair kit and an inflater, learn how to use them

When I bought my 2025 BSBL I told my old mother and the first thing she said was “you didnt buy the extended warranty do you? Your dad always said dont buy the extended warranty”. My dad sold Fords for 30 years, but of course I bought a small extended warranty. Why start listening to him now.

Where did you get those mud flaps?

So I have decided the very first exterior upgrade for a new BS is 3M clear protection for the front of the hood the leading edge of the front fenders and the painted portion of trim around the front grill. From my experience and from what I have seen by paint thickness testers the paint is...
