  1. I'm out, traded for a 2025 RAV4

    Strictly speaking true. To the average person, whether something can catch on fire or not is the concern. https://www.hseblog.com/flammable-vs-combustible/
  2. What’s the name of your 2025 Bronco Sport

    Older Bronco Sport naming thread here: https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/what-did-you-name-your-bronco-sport.10897/
  3. Desert Sand 2025 Bronco Sport Big Bend Delivered

    There is Connected Navigation, a subscription option, but also built-in Navigation. The SYNC 4 featues page says, "Reverts to Embedded Navigation with no Connected Navigation services (e.g., live traffic) if a subscription is not purchased after the trial ends "...
  4. Tariffs [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS; POLICY DISCUSSIONS ONLY]

    The number of foreign and domestic brand cars produced in Mexico and Canada for the U.S. market may surprise you. It surprised me.
  5. I'm out, traded for a 2025 RAV4

    Coolant is flammable, at least the older glycol and polyethylene glycol forms. https://firefighterinsider.com/antifreeze-coolant-flammable/
  6. No front license plate provision?

    There's no charge for the license plate frame in states which require a front plate.
  7. Bronco = stuck up

    I had a '69, one brother had a '69 and later a '71, and oldest brother had a '68 and carried his Butterfly sailboat on it. None of us had any interest in the New Beetle and never owned one or even driven one. This white Beetle was traded in on an IH Scout II around 1978, I think. Oh yeah, and...
  8. Rear Shock Leak

    Ford Is Recalling Bronco SUVs With Bilstein Shock Absorbers https://carbuzz.com/recall-ford-bronco-badlands-sasquatch-package-rear-suspension/ Just because they are named Bilstein doesn't mean that they will be good. Time will tell.
  9. Bronco = stuck up

    Back in the day, VW Beetle owners waved at each other. Those were friendlier, safer times with less risk of road rage, IMO.
  10. Tariffs [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS; POLICY DISCUSSIONS ONLY]

    My take on these Tariffs: Unintended Inflation that will take its toll on citizens, on household and business budgets, and on jobs. When companies lose money due to increased operating costs, the options are to streamline operations, cut material costs, and/or raise prices for goods and services.
  11. Desert Sand 2025 Bronco Sport Big Bend Delivered

    I can do without it. Touch screens do not belong in cars, especially Sync 4 which moves many functions to the touch screen. They are built-in distracted driving. Stupid Ford and other manufacturers to not recognize it! I'm very happy to have a '24 and not a '25 Bronco Sport. I would have...
  12. Desert Sand 2025 Bronco Sport Big Bend Delivered

    i've actually tried a master reset on my car, deleted and reinstalled Ford Pass, and Deleted Android Auto ( I don't use it). Not a big concern as long as the screen eventually comes on. I had deleted Android Auto from my cell before taking delivery of my car a year ago. That confused my salsman...
  13. Desert Sand 2025 Bronco Sport Big Bend Delivered

    I don't know about Sync 4 but Sync 3 is flaky. Sometimes, the screen comes alive when I open the car door and sometimes, it stays black for many seconds, even after the engine is started. Not repeatedly reproducible, so no way to diagnose it at the dealership. Before anyone asks, yes I have...
  14. Vincent machine is broken

    Dealers have a system called Smart Vincent that tells them when incentives and discounts are available to a particular order. The dealer can sort by customer name, email address, or phone number to find the customer's available discounts on a particular order.
  15. OB/BL black roof: Who hates ‘em?

    I wouldn't say I hate the look of the black roof, but it doesn't appeal to me on anything except the Oxford white, the Sand, and of course, Shadow Black.
  16. Rain guards adhesion

    I have the EGR window deflectors (front in-channel, snap in, rear use 3M VHB), and the rear did pull loose after less than a year, in spite of cleaning and de-greasing the weatherstripping in the top of the window channel. That did not happen on my '17 Escape which used the WeatherTech window...
  17. Ford Battery Recall - #25S02

    I wonder if the recall will eventually extend to the '24 models. It wouldn't be the first time that a recall was extended to include more cars from earlier and/or later builds.
  18. WeatherTech Hood Protector non symmetrical

    Something seriously wrong there. The WeatherTech website shows the part number for the Bronco Sport Hood Protector as: Part Number: 55208 The number you mention here does not match anything on the WeatherTech website.
  19. What is the weight load in cargo area for Bronco Sport Badlands, without the back seats laying down?

    The Combined weight of cargo and passenger are show on the tire pressure label attached to the B pillar, inside driver's door. For example, here's the label on my '24 BL: 1000 pounds of cargo is way over the limit. For example, with a 200 pound driver, your max cargo would be 624 pounds...
  20. Hatch "flood lights" fuse

    I've had it go into sleep mode even after the 24S24 recall was completed. These computers on wheels are battery suckers. A retired relative of mine has a 22 Toyota Camry, and it goes dead in a week of not driving.
