Solved my seat problem. Loved my 21 BB around town but couldn’t stand those rock hard seats after 2 hours on the road even after installing seat jackers and trying seat pads. Solved it by trading in for a 22 GMC Terrain SLT AWD with similar miles.last week. Doesn’t have the same outdoorsy...

Just added a set to my BB drivers seat. Definitely makes a difference in the feel of the seat by raising the front 3/4”. Now feels more like a bucket seat than a flat bench. The true test for me wil be a drive exceeding 2 hours which is the point at which I start to suffer really uncomfortable...

2021 BB bought 4/30/2021. recall done 1 wk ago, driven about 400 miles and parked this past Monday. Two days later (yesterday) I get this message from Ford: Restarted with no problem. Not sure what to think of this. Is the gizmo too sensitive now or is this an early warning or what?

My 2021 BB is my first new car purchase since 1976 so I haven't been in the dealer service mode. In fact I skip right by the dealer and go to the independent shop I've dealt with for 25 years for all my cars. However, in the past 6 months I've had three dealer service experiences at Jim Ellis...

I ran across the attached folding step at Harbor Freight as a bonus coupon. The BS is rather tall and with any kind of rack really requires some sort of booster to work around the roof. I use a light step ladder at home but really need something when on the road. This item is 8 1/2” tall, rated...

Doing a tire change on a riding mower, I reached for the jack in my BB. Easy enough to find the scissors jack under the mini spare but where in the world is the jack handle? I searched all over the vehicle before turning to the manual. It became fairly obvious that Ford didn’t really expect...

Yes, but drilling was very simple and I could be wrong but I believe it was only through plastic, not metal. The real key is the Uhaul video so you see how to disassemble the interior trim to feed the wire to the tail light.

I too have triggered the warning screen a few times but never had any sense of braking. I thought that just like I have a backup camera but no audible warning as I get close, perhaps I have a warning screen but no braking? I wonder about the car ad that has the car suddenly stopping for an...

Look closely and I believe you’ll see loops for tent pegs.

Do you still have floor mats?

I’ll buy one shipped.

As an alternative, bought this for both 21 BB and 04 Solara. Very happy with results for 2 and 3 years. Connects to reverse light in tail light and U-haul video on BS hitch install is very handy to see how to route wires...

Reminds me of when I test drove a BS the first time and asked the sales girl where the slot for the cd player was. That was the first I had heard that cd players were long passe. Perfectly happy now with Sirius and Carplay and frankly wouldn’t miss am or fm. Damn glad I’ve got an engine cover...

When first bought my BB 4/30/2021 I could go days without seeing another. Kinda had a natural urge to acknowledge a fellow BS when you spotted one. Recently had pizza outdoors with the kids and I was amazed at the number of Broncos and Sports that passed by. The notion of something unique is...

Just a cautionary thought, my son bought a late model 2500 GMC pickup from a contractor a few years ago and traded it last year. He got absolutely hammered on the trade because the vin check showed it to be a Canadian car. Reminded me of the 80s when a lot of used Mercedes were brought in from...
