  1. Hey Everyone

    Here's saying you both will be around a long, long time! Congrats on the new Ford Bronco Sport.
  2. Well- 123,000 miles and it finally happened… transmission issue

    Lifetime fluid was in reference to the 2007 Ford F-150 transmission. I'm thinking they removed the term from newer vehicles and recommendations.
  3. Well- 123,000 miles and it finally happened… transmission issue

    I'm careful to imply or state directly in words that my experiences are evidence that fluid changes are more appropriate than other folks schedules, or the manufacturers. I do some research, I examine my driving characteristics, and how I use the vehicle. For example, I pulled a camper at one...
  4. Poor gas mileage 15.1 city 21-23 highway (Los Angeles)

    For the longest time, I would be bothered by the instant milage readout, always trying to do better. On my truck, I bought a device that plugs into the OBD-II port, because it did not have one built into the console. Then my wife told me how to not be annoyed with the poor mileage; unplug the...
  5. Well- 123,000 miles and it finally happened… transmission issue

    For some or large percentage of the masses, this can be a valid statement. However in my case, I know I have never had a transmission failure. And like most others, I don't trade in a vehicle every 3 to 5 years; I drive them in excess of 200K miles or more. I will only trade vehicles in when my...
  6. Well- 123,000 miles and it finally happened… transmission issue

    Never had a transmission failure in following the manufactures transmission schedule, because due to my decision of changing transmission fluid every 30K, I never followed the manufactures suggestion. I treat my transmission and differential in a similar fashion as engine oil; it gets changed...
  7. Well that's it.... We've had it with Ford and this Bronco Sport

    Good reasoning for a dealership to provide a loaner vehicle when someone who buys a new vehicle is without their vehicle for a period of time due to a faulty part or assembly of the vehicle by the manufacturer. While I will agree that the dealership should not have to cover the costs, the...
  8. Well that's it.... We've had it with Ford and this Bronco Sport

    This puzzled me too, as for all that is bad, there is good too, and certainly forums are here to post the bad and the good. I post my opinions both good and bad, but don't feel I'm a troll for doing so. I also understand the difference between posting something against a lost family member (in...
  9. Well- 123,000 miles and it finally happened… transmission issue

    I've always used a 30K transmission replace/flush, as per the transmission shop I have been using the past 20 years (yep, they are still in business; the son now runs the shop) on my past 4 vehicles. My current ride other than the BS is a 2007 Ford F-150. It has currently 183K on its original...
  10. Well- 123,000 miles and it finally happened… transmission issue

    I'll assume though, from another thread discussion on transmission fluid (https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/something-i-feel-i-have-to-clear-up-about-transmission-servicing.10701/page-2) thread by member FB71, you have a different perspective on transmission fluid changes? I have...
  11. This surprised me today.

    I'm certainly satisfied with the B&O system in our Outer Banks edition. Much better than the simple stereo in our 2007 F-150.
  12. Bug deflectors.

    I vote neither.
  13. Do you want to keep the retro design on the next gen Bronco Sport?

    Makes it more aerodynamic to help with fuel economy. Something we need to live with.
  14. Well that's it.... We've had it with Ford and this Bronco Sport

    With all the competition in car sales, you'd think that they would be much better with repair work/customer service. What that tells me is that most folks simply accept the poor service and lack of attention to detail. That's sad.
  15. Do you want to keep the retro design on the next gen Bronco Sport?

    Looks a lot like the H2 Hummer to me.
  16. Check rear seats...

    Pathetic that people have to be reminded not to leave a child or pet in the car. Way too many news reports where a child or pet dies due to heat because they were left behind. When asked, the parent or pet owner states they forgot, or were only running into the store for a minute.
  17. Well that's it.... We've had it with Ford and this Bronco Sport

    If I had 200K floating around, I'd buy two of the F150 EV's. NOT!
