  1. Tariffs [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS; POLICY DISCUSSIONS ONLY]

    That doesn't happen in a vacuum.
  2. Tips for 'downshifting' on Bronco Sport Big Bend 1.5L 3-cyl?

    Haven't been in the mountains yet with the BS but if using cruise control, my truck uses engine braking on it's own. Works beautifully.
  3. Wildpeak AT4W...mild regret

    Thanks, I'll keep an eye on that.
  4. Wildpeak AT4W...mild regret

    For reference, Our 24 BL, without additional off road package, came with Pirelli Scorpion ATRs 225/65 R17 102H M+S. No complaints. Haven't had them in mud but they handled snow ice, as well as any tire I've owned. The ride is fine, as is the road noise. The engine is still breaking in, so...
  5. Whats your routine and product preferences for washing and waxing?

    And it works on other things than headlights too. We had some of those little solar powered landscaping lights and the panels were fading. Cleaned em right up.
  6. Whats your routine and product preferences for washing and waxing?

    It'll take some elbow grease and a few applications but I promise, you will see fairly radical improvement with the Plastx.
  7. Whats your routine and product preferences for washing and waxing?

    Thanks. You were on my mind when I wrote that (from comments in a different thread) but had hoped others would sing out with their favorites and why. I'm kinda new to trying to keep vehicles that clean. I use to drive off road, every day for my job so, my truck got washed when it rained. :facepalm:
  8. What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

    It was a good day to clean it up. Though I'm told, this isn't rocket science.
  9. Whats your routine and product preferences for washing and waxing?

    For those who wash at home, what is your routine and product preferences? I haven't yet found the magic suds that will do everything in one go. I'm sure open to finding them but haven't yet. First, we have a good power washer and a whole house water softener. And I use a basic foam cannon...
  10. Why did you choose a Bronco Sport?

    My Wife LOVED her 02 Jeep Liberty Limited. She liked the size, maneuverability and the available traction. I was having to work on it more often and annual repairs were approaching market value, which usually isn't a good idea so, she knew she needed to be looking elsewhere. Its her car, so I...
  11. Critters Nesting in 2024 BS Big Bend

    The pine tree sap is a different story all together. I doubt any commercial carwash is going to do a good job on that and we all have to face our own realities about where we can park but the car washes with brushes or mops, WILL scratch your paint and especially the gloss black plastics. Which...
  12. Critters Nesting in 2024 BS Big Bend

    No worries. Dry humor, frequently doesn't translate well in text form.
  13. Critters Nesting in 2024 BS Big Bend

    C'mon man, I got it, I was just playin back :rockon:
  14. Critters Nesting in 2024 BS Big Bend

    Not a question I ever pondered before. :) I guess first, we'd have to determine if they even have the capacity to recognize the symbolism of heads on spikes, or simply be opportunistic about an easy meal. I'm voting for the latter.
  15. Critters Nesting in 2024 BS Big Bend

    Won't phase em in the slightest. They're cannibals.
  16. I messed up

    Thanks for the honesty and update. We all learn better, from both.
  17. From BS Outer Banks to BS Badlands

    They are but I'm gonna be, that guy, on calling them "trucks". :) Trucks have frames and beds. And even then, they might only be pseudo trucks, as in the old El Camino and Ranchero. They were cars, with beds.
  18. From BS Outer Banks to BS Badlands

    Yep, I was very impressed with the snow time performance. Even just in normal mode. Worry free.
  19. Critters Nesting in 2024 BS Big Bend

    You do not need an oil change every 6 months, regardless of miles and it doesn't cost $110 either. What you need, is a new dealer. It isn't the BS's fault mice are chewing. They are equal opportunity destruction critters. That guy in the vid, tests all kinds of rodent traps and deterrents. He...
  20. Critters Nesting in 2024 BS Big Bend

    We tried drier sheets. They built nests on them. Same for mothballs.
