CHP has some weird chain regulations. I can carry chains that don’t even fit and meet the R1 regs, but If R2 goes up I have to chain tires and said chains will not clear my wheel wells. On top of that I have snow tires and 4x. It’s that way because too many don’t have a clue about snow. Sad...

I would rather have the Badlands with the 4 cylinder than deal with some of the 3 cylinder issues. Depending on my speed, I’m gettin 28+ mpg on the freeway. 25-26 in town depending on the amount of stop and go. All with the ASS (Auto Stop/Start) off. I generally use 87 oct. When traveling...

Manual says No chains or cable on 235’s. I imagine it applies to 245’s as well. I drove from Woodland CA to L.A. yesterday. Except for some rain before noon, I5 was clear and dry all the way. Only snow seen was coming out of the Siskiyou pass and it was all a good 20 feet or better off the...

I love the PNW, but I’m getting too old to appreciate the weather. Overnight low in Seal Beach was 44°. My high yesterday was 49°. My lungs can’t take it this time of year. I have a lovely 2 bedroom in Leisure World. Perfect for leaving rain and possible snow behind, where I can actually...

I noticed. That’s why I listed mine. Seal Beach is my vacation area. It’s also near where I grew up. Happy the ASS works well for you. All it does for me is raise my blood pressure, so I’ll keep it off. Happy driving.

Wow! I wish I could get the foot well ambient lighting in my Badlands. I also wish my console was wired for the cupholders (which I have, but nothing to plug into). If you’re going to be in So Cal or would be willing to take on a project for senior woman, message me. I’ve about reached my...

Should still be the same bumper. The access should be a pop out piece of black plastic just above the right red reflector/light. If you zoom my picture you can just make it out. Mine does me no good since I have the factory tow package that covers/blocks the underside of it, but I located...

My 2022 came with that piece just sitting there, like assembly missed installing it. It would rattle. I popped it back in and never had another issue. It was one of the first things I checked when I took delivery of my 2023.

Lucky you. Around Seal Beach/Cypress/Los Alamitos my BS was restarting halfway through the signals. I tried a little test to see if it was me. It wasn’t. I’m still getting 26 mpg in town and 28+ on the freeway (when not stuck in L.A. traffic). Here in WA, I get the same or better, depending...

Try driving in California with this feature. The signals are long enough the auto start engages before the light changes. At those rare lights that are shorter, you’ll be honked at while waiting for your restart. Just a royal pain. I’ll stick with my ASS Eliminator.

I hate the feature, so I invested in an Auto Stop/Start Eliminator. Now I don’t have to deal with it.

My spare was a full size 225/65R17 until I upgraded. I also added TPMS to my spare, which is on a matching rim. I can do 5 tire rotations with no issues. Thank you Discount Tires.

He’s looking for rifle, not pistol.

I added the side marker lights from Tectico and the struts from Red Line Tuning. I also added the console organizer, the dash one and brake/gas pedal covers in blue.

I’ve had mine for a year now. Can’t decide between Junior (for Bronco Junior) or Bell (short for Bluebell). Feel free to send me opinions. ?
