  1. New Rough Country 1.5" Lift

    They definitely censor their reviews, if you search many RC parts/kits on google you'll see something along the lines of 9 reviews with a 3.5 star rating in the google search results but then when you go to the site you'll see 4 reviews showing with a 5 star rating. Shady. While I do think this...
  2. Nokian Outpost AT, Discount Tire

    They also make the Outpost APT which is still 3 peak rated and a little less aggressive as far as tread pattern goes. It's also significantly lighter in terms of taking a hit to MPG. Here's a photo of the APT, still a nice looking tread pattern, lots of siping and only 29 pounds for 235/65R17.
  3. Nokian Outpost AT, Discount Tire

    They are a very very well known company around the world, they have been making the best snow tires for decades and are not rebranded anything. I lived in New England for 20 years and this is the ONLY brand of snow tire I would use as they made Blizzaks seem like summer tires in comparison...
  4. Dealership holding BS until recall fix

    They legally cannot sell you the vehicle with that open recall and could face hefty penalties if they did.
  5. Details, Ford, Details

    The coffee thing is absolutely silly and ridiculous. In thirty years of driving with thousands of cups of coffee and almost a million miles covered to include unfortunately encountering plenty of morons doing something stupid forcing me to slam on my brakes I've never once had coffee or any...
  6. 2023 FORD BRONCO ADDS NEW AZURE GRAY METALLIC COLOR

    I like this a lot better than my A51
  7. Alignment/steering issue unresolved

    You should request to have the shop foreman take a road test with you if you haven't already. Usually it's actually the mechanically driven high pressure fuel pump that most people mistake for a bad lifter or valve issue. It's alarming for people who have never owned a direct injected vehicle.
  8. What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

    I always pictured the Ford account operator taking your information, writing it on a post it note and then crumpling it up into a ball and playing basketball with the trash can in their office.
  9. Engine Cover 2022 BS Big Bend (Once Again)

    This. I added a used cover I bought to my Maverick thinking it might suppress some noise from the HPFP and 60 dollars later it did absolutely nothing so I sold it for 100 on ebay. I couldn't care less how the engine bay looks but I get that some do.....
  10. Military appreciation?

    I've never known Ford not to run Military appreciation. As long as you're current active duty/active reserve/guard or no more than 2 years from your ETS date you should be good to go. From what I understand every once in a while they run $1,000 off military appreciation but at the time I...
  11. New Rough Country 1.5" Lift

    Rough country censors their reviews for sure but apparently not enough to get past google search abilities. If you google search a product and look under the "shopping" results you'll see the product show up in the results if purchased direct from the Rough Country website. The results will show...
  12. 1st Oil Change on Bronco Sport Badlands -- Thoughts and Things Learned!

    I think you'll find if you re-read what I wrote that I'm well aware of what "anecdotal" means. My non-anecdotal data would be that of the blackstone labs oil analysis report (FACTS) as opposed to that dude's conjecture regarding Ford's data as it pertains to their service interval...
  13. 1st Oil Change on Bronco Sport Badlands -- Thoughts and Things Learned!

    Oh, I'm sorry, Ford does say it's every 150,000 miles for transmission fluid change. I'm going to hold you to that, you know, because the Ford experts know best right? If I find out you changed your transmission fluid prior to 150k I'm going to be pretty disappointed. It's funny that you dump...
  14. 1st Oil Change on Bronco Sport Badlands -- Thoughts and Things Learned!

    I posted an oil analysis which shows fuel dilution and a degradation of viscosity and flash point, what more do you want? This is not anecdotal, this is FACTUAL. Of course you didn't address the "lifetime" transmission fluid either, that would implode your "argument".
  15. 1st Oil Change on Bronco Sport Badlands -- Thoughts and Things Learned!

    Clearly you don't understand how direct injected turbocharged engines work. I based my 3k oil change intervals on fuel dilution. At 3k miles there's typically at least 1% fuel dilution on this engine. There is no "problem" to be addressed with fuel dilution on these engines, I think I did a...
  16. 1st Oil Change on Bronco Sport Badlands -- Thoughts and Things Learned!

    Alas, as stated in my original post, DO WHAT YOU WANT. I am merely serving up a warning for people to get a UOA done and NOT TO TRUST THE FACTORY RECOMMENDED SERVICE INTERVALS on their ecoboost engine. This is a UOA from an ecoboost engine with less than 3k miles on the oil. Look at the...
  17. 1st Oil Change on Bronco Sport Badlands -- Thoughts and Things Learned!

    Not quite sure the manufacturer has your best interest in mind with extended servicing. If you keep your vehicle while in warranty and then sell, by all means do what you like or just do what you like any way. I urge you to do a quick google search of "Ford fuel dilution blackstone labs" and...
  18. 1st Oil Change on Bronco Sport Badlands -- Thoughts and Things Learned!

    These Ford ecoboost engines DO suffer from fuel dilution even if you can't smell it in your oil. Almost all direct injection turbocharged engines do as a byproduct of insane cylinder pressure mixed with a fine mist of fuel from the direct injection. The blow by gases get past the rings and...
