You may find you want/need to mount or attach to the outside of the bar mount on occasion, in which case the 60" bar will offer more room for that. The 50" Yakima I know is not recommended -- not sure why not, but it just fits without much length to spare. I went with 60". I thought I wouldn't...
I understood that spot is for the heated wiper park area switch (wiper de-icer) for that feature in Canadian markets (and I think on Outer Banks models).
Airing out apres-camp at home. Sleeps 2 adults comfortably, rooftop weight with tent and rack hardware about 119 lbs. on a BS BL/BL with moonroof! No worries, you need to drive cautiously with all this stuff mounted up anyway -- if you haven't rolled it over, then you're all-set. The static...
Come on guys; it's FREE *OR* $40 shipped to you on a USB drive. As the build 22200 update didn't come through for me over Wi-Fi yesterday, I bought a new USB 3.0 drive at Walgreens for guess what - $39.99. Used it to install the updates I downloaded for free yesterday (22200 and Nav maps...
Update to Sync 3.4 build 22200 via USB this AM quick and easy, took < 20 mins. on my drive to work. As was already at 3.4 build 21194 I updated Nav maps yesterday -- all is well. I'll be mildly surprised to see/find any differences -- nothing I've noticed yet. BUT -- searching for various...
Ironically enough, it looks like they must be measuring from the lowest point -- which, taking a look, may be one of the rear skid plates. In addition to the slightly taller suspension, and slightly taller optional tires (required to attain this 8.8" figure), the Badlands (and First Ed.) has a...
Mine spun for a little while (10-15 mins.? on a weakish Wi-Fi connection here at work) and finished I guess, reporting "up to date" as of the correct, current date and time, at Sync 3 version 3.4 build 21194. But mine's a 2021 BS BL-BL built 12/15/20, I wonder if newer vehicles are using this...
I second that Falken A/T Trail recommendation. I use them everywhere in all conditions to great effect -- but don't do any rock crawling. Just trails, rain, mud, snow, roadway. I don't know if 245/65-17 is wise or not on the base trim(s), e.g. at full turn of the wheel, or full articulation on...
Why? Badlands has a steel bash plate already. But then adding BOTH drain plug and oil filter accesses (w/o removing the whole bash plate) might be pretty great if they did that. Changes are taking me 1:15 every time (4x now).
I'm finding that actually USING my BS, i'ts become impossible to keep marks off of the piano black outside trim pieces. Anything touching it, scratches it. Then there's SUNSCREEN, it stains everything. And BUG SPRAY, it melts some plastics/rubberized plastics. Sunscreen, bug sprays, hand...
That is good news...my BL/BL does not have that Climate button, nor those temp displays. But then I can just look at my digital buttons. (I see outside temp, but don't recall if that's only in the dash or where...)
These don't appear to be the same climate control system anyway, the lower panel is not dual-zone auto climate control. But yes, the digital window on these 2 knobs has been deleted. A shame, I think. Adjustments of course display in the screen, but I'll be surprised if there is any steady-state...
I can recommend the Falken WildPeak A/T Trails, they are great on- and off-road, but I'm not rock crawling or fording streams, just trails and a little bit off the beaten path. They don't make huge highway noise like some other more aggressive, "true all-terrain" tires.
That looks a little "busier" than the same sort of patterns on my BL rubber flooring. Nature of the material I think though. AND IT DOES SHOW quite evident marks when you scuff it with your shoe/boot/other items. As others have said, most of it is covered by the front and rear rubber mats, if...
Don't they all come with either a.) the small temporary spare, or b.) the same full-size 17" Pirelli? A mismatched spare is not uncommon at all, it's for temporary, emergency use, not to drive on for any distance other than to get it replaced. It's up to you if you want to buy a matching...
