Retired. 32 years with the Post Office (torture for pay) and 8 years in the Navy before that. (loved the sea but hated the ships). I may be the oldest one here.
For the past 12 years my main interest has been traveling/camping around the U.S. solo on motorcycle. I've ridden to every state in...
Just got a reply from Patti at Zeigler Ford. They will charge $100 over cost for an actual Ford Protect plan.
Examples of Quotes I received were :
72 month 75000 mile Bumper to Bumper with $100 deductible $1040
96 month/150000 mile bumper to bumper with $100 deductible $3520
Lots of...
I'm looking at extended warranties due to any Bronco Sport first model year teething problems. So far I've always came out ahead with extended warranties when I have gotten them. With all the electronics /gadgetry in the Badland + Badlands one glitch might pay for the warranty.
I received a...
I was considering the rear under seat vault for valuables and other things I don't want people or children to see. I just didn't want to spend that kind of money for a safe I so found this unit
on Amazon that fit perfectly under the seat. Electronic lock opens with a code on the 3 buttons...
I have the Wildpeaks and while driving on snow/ice covered backroads last night I was thinking I wish I had ordered the Pirellis. I'm glad I read your post so I know they wouldn't have helped. Falkens were fine braking and taking off but I found myself losing traction on snow covered curves much...
I sort of liked the deep throaty sound in Sport Sound. Too bad it was coming through the speakers and not the pipes.
I was wondering how they managed to change the sound between modes.

I wanted to find the price for an average fob replacement and I keep seeing estimates of $150 -$400 for transponder type key fobs. That includes the fob, cutting the key and programing. I replaced a 2008 Escape key/remote combo and it cost me $160. I'm thinking the dealer quoted me a worst case...
I was under the impression that if you got the optional Falken Wildpeak tires the full size spare would match. (tire not wheel). Instead I have a Pirelli Scorpion full size spare. Does anyone else have the same combo? There's only a 1/2" inch size difference but I wasn't sure if it would affect...
Keep the faith Alto Blue fans.

Trying to put transceiver/Antenna installation ideas in one location. Please move to appropriate place if needed.
Looking for location and wiring ideas/discussions/examples for both the radios and the antennas on our Bronco Sports.
Ford has some documentation on the subject that may be of...
Looking at the parts diagram Here.
I think there should be room under a portion of the console cover of even the BL & FE. For the other models they definitely would have more room. Especially for small push button switches.
If I was to use rocker switches I might use covered switches like...
Good idea also but I can't find any good pictures of the area around the switch. Also, I believe there is a knee airbag below the dash so I may have to worry about interfering with that.
That would give me the excuse to buy a 3d printer. Otherwise a cheaper method might be a plug made of expanding foam with an ABS or Carbon fiber/epoxy face plate. The cubby might be perfect for the ham radio control head I'm trying to mount also. If I mounted the head on a hinge I suppose I...
Looking for possible locations for individual auxiliary switches or s-Pod type switch setup. Has any owners or demo drivers noticed any possible locations? Not too concerned if it's on the dashboard, overhead or on the center console as long as it doesn't interfere with airbags. A spot I'm...
