MpG is a fallacy. It continuously varies by so many factors that comparisons or decisions based on it aren't really valid. Even the EPA doesn't drive them outside to verify the manufacturer's ratings, they do computer dyno inside to have consistent conditions. If your 2022 is still under...

Ford handles recalls differently than most others. For example, they have a current recall that covers a total of 6 vehicles across 4 model lines. Most others would not have issued a recall, just sent out 6 letters. Or a recall that covers less then 100 vehicles that may have not had a bolt...

I found this wonderful book that says: Why does the engine not always stop when I expect it to? The system is designed to work in a way that complements other vehicle systems, allowing them to operate at optimum performance.The system does not stop the engine if: • The driver door is open. •...

From the 2025 BS manual: Your vehicle operates on regular unleaded gasoline with a minimum pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87.Some fuel stations, particularly those in high altitude areas, offer fuels posted as regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating below 87. The use of these fuels could...

The Badlands has a 2.0L engine, the other models are 1.5L.

Looks like the right taillight/brakelight is blocked.

No car manufacturer has excellent quality reputation anymore. Toyota recalling all Tundra engines. Honda recalling hundreds of thousand of engines. Even Range Rovers and Rolls Royces have issues. I've followed Ford for years and they have a lot of recalls but, unlike most other manufacturers...

They provide a tie down point if hauling anything on the roof rack. I would never use them - I'd like to remove them and replace with turn signal/running light inserts but I don't have the right length socket extension to remove them.

Mine is gloss black and gray, it picks up reflections.

Out in the country.

I've had several sets of after market rims over the years and none required rings.

And Toyota has to replace 100,000+ Tundra engines. Honda is having an engine recall. Most car manufacturers have recalls and a lot of software fixes because the cars are getting more and more complicated and run by software so it happens. Being in IT for 25 years I saw how poorly so much...

AI response: The Ford Bronco Sport mirror fold motor is not sold as a standalone part and is included as part of the entire power-folding mirror assembly. To replace it, you must purchase the complete assembly, which can be done through a Ford dealer using the part number (like CU5Z17D696A)...

Tim Bartz thinks it will be next month before Ford puts the 2026 on their build site. Long McArthur has a 2026 build site they set up at the Long McArthur Ford web page, under the drop down for Order Your New Ford. It doesn't include pictures of the 2026 because Ford hasn't released any yet...
