  1. Big Badlands Roadtrip

    My wife just did a 10-day, 1,600-mile trip. MA-NJ-VA-OBX-VA-NJ-MA. Just under 28 mpg. Very pleased. Loves her BS BL. I've done a similar, 1,400-mile MA-OBX-MA trip twice in my '22 Escape. 33 and 32 mpg. Significantly better than the many trips in my '14 Escape.

  9. Gas mileage?

    My wife is on her first trip with her '23 BL. Curious to see what her mileage will be. Returning Sunday. 1,500 miles. I've done essentially the same trip twice in my '22 FE Ti. 33 and 32 mpg. That's significantly better than the mileage for the trip in my '14 FE Ti with the previous 2.0...
  10. Oil & filter change intervals / frequency

    My Escape is at 11 months, 5,100 miles. 31% OLM. Will do it next month. Have an OBX trip coming up. Will probably be under 7k at the oil change. I expect miles on my wife's BS BL will be even less at 1 year.
  11. Moonroof...please explain why you would want one...

    It's a $1,600 option on an Escape. That's a fair percentage of the total price of a vehicle that stickers in the 30s! Didn't order it on my '22. Never used it on my '14. Added weight way up high, too. My wife didn't order it on her BL. Never used it on her '12 FE Limited Hybrid.

    Me, too. Drove a VW or Audi with a stick 1983 - 2015. First new car was an '83 Rabbit L. A whole 65 h.p.! Tornado Red '87 GTi 16v for 172,000 miles. Techtonics Tuning exhaust. Sounded great. Neighbors probably hated it. :) '97 Passat GLX wagon '01 GTi GLX '03 Audi A4 Avant 3.0q '10 JSW...
  13. Battery Not Charging?

    I would buy OBDLink EX and reset BMS myself for less than the dealer wants to charge I let the dealer replace the battery on my '14 several years ago because they quoted a great price. Receipt didn't state BMS was reset. So, I did it myself just to be sure.
  14. Battery Not Charging?

    I also lose the auto stop/start with a lot of in-town driving. Comes back with a little more longer drives.
  15. Engine cover or hood insulation?

    Surprised to see hood insulation on my wife's '23 yesterday when I checked fluid levels before a trip. Wasn't expecting it. Don't have hood blanket or engine cover on my '22 Escape.
  16. Oil & filter change intervals / frequency

    10k/1 year. Motorcraft filter. Mobil 1 Extended Performance oil. 12-pack shelf pack of Motorcraft filters from Rockauto.
  17. For those interested in getting wireless car play rather than have to plug the phone in.

    Bought the Motorola MA 1 for my wife's BS BL since we didn't get NAV. Liked it so much I bought one for my Escape. Had our music on USB flash drives. Bought 128 GB micro-SD cards for our phones so we can get our music with Android Auto. Also added TuneIn Radio to our phones. It has Jeopardy...
