And no, the weld is not giving loose on the ball. I saw that too after I looked at the picture. It's an illusion.

Never notice it as bad with my F150's but with the Bronco Sport I sure did. Quiet as a church mouse back there now. Hitch Tightener, Anti-Rattle Stabilizer... Amazon.com: StowAway Hitch Tightener, Anti-Rattle Stabilizer for 2 Inch and 1.25 Inch Hitches. Made in USA. : Automotive

Haaa...the dealer I bought it from also did the rustproofing.

I took a peek and can see they were there. But from what I've read I think it needs to be done every year? My truck pickup topper had so much winter salt on it (Minnesota winter) I couldn't get the key in the truck cap locks this spring, there was a dry white residue in the lock, and I realized...

There is a socket one can buy that will bite into the lug nut and def takes it off. They call it a turbo socket and it is specifically designed for wheel nuts. I got one for my F150 in case any of the nuts refused to come off as I replaced them with Gorilla nuts. I didn't have to use the turbo...

I've used the 'Big Bend' twice towing round trip 460 miles using 'Normal' mode. I was pulling max weight of 2000 pounds, 60 mph, and the tach stayed around 1700RPM on flat freeway. The big test was Duluth Minnesota with the long steep hill (south side) coming into and return leaving Duluth. I...

I had a similar dark green color with a 1996 Ford F150 new. My brother-in-law thought it was antifreeze. Somehow a guy locally in town heard my story, claimed he worked at Ford and would make some inquiries for me as to why it was greenish. He did call back but couldn't really explain why it was...

Throw out the spare tire and jack for the Bronco Sport, spare tire for trailer, 1/2 tank of gas, and the misc. 200 lbs. behind you and wife and you are there brother.

I've been using the Eureka Timberline 4 person for decades. Simple A frame style. They are cheap (Amazon 259.00) but rugged, can be set up in the dark, or with poor lighting. The 4 person is perfect for 2 adults and two dogs plus lot of gear. I use two 15.00 air mattresses (Walmart) and cheap...

266 miles 21.45 mpg and never went above 60 mph. Half the route had hills, the other half flat.

I'm towing a 6'6"x10' steel sided trailer at 920 pounds and the ATV at 993 pounds for a 460 mile round trip. I do it about 5 times a year. I keep it at 60MPH max and it maintains 1700 RPM on the straight. Doesn't seem to shift any different than my F150's I've been driving the last 30 years on...

I was caught unaware of the addendum card added to all the paperwork until reading a post here and sure enough I found it. Lately I have done a few 'rapid oil change' at those specialty shops (oil change is all they do) and I noticed they had bulk tanks of different oil. Apparently, they punch...

WTH I never saw those and didn't find them in the owners manual. Those will def work with 1" webbing inserted through them.

I needed to haul three 8 foot 2x4's back to my house in the Bronco Sport. I was sorely disappointed with the wimpy tie down hooks. The three 2x4 weighed 24 pounds. I used 550 paracord line and snugged it down only to have the line pop off the tie down latch. Any shifting of the 2x4's inside...

I was just reading about the rack tonight in the owner's manual and wondered about that. Who makes that rack you got on top, what do you stick in there, does it effect gas mileage?

I took a couple screenshots from a Youtube video. Big Bend up to 118 mph. Not mine.

Bought one April 29 and the card is indeed with all the paperwork.

I barely had the 1000 miles break in required when we started the road trip but did notice the computer said 27.5 mpg for the first 1000 miles. I forgot to set odometer to zero for trip up. The return trip of 240 miles did not have ATV in trailer but had a cargo of 500 pounds and computer said...

Sweet. I am able to get four of them in and still have space for cooler and dog in front of containers. Dimensions are 31 1/2 in. L x 19½ in. W x 11 1/2 in. H. They run about 50.00 in military surplus stores.

'Normal' Goat mode pulling max weight of 2000 pounds, 60 mph, tach stayed around 1700RPM. The big test was Duluth Minnesota with the long steep hill (south side) coming into and return leaving Duluth. I stayed in normal mode and the Bronco Sport handled fine. Think I lightly tapped brakes a...
