I want to say my local dealership charges $65-80. I can't remember. They asked about it because my last two oil changes were done at my selling dealer, 3 hours away. But those were free.
Now, I don't think they're using full synthetic but a blend. I've used full synthetic in the past but I...
It's hard to say. I really like the design because it's simple and different. I really don't want Ford to change it up too much, but then again, that's why I'm not in the design category.
I would like different bumpers, especially in the front. It would be nice to have an easier way to add...
Before my BS, I had a 2006 Honda Accord. The outside looked horrible (several deer/car incidents and repairs along with failing clear coat) but it was mostly solid. My first vacation of 2023, I decided to do some work on it and ended up messing up a bolt on the VTEC solenoid. After it...
Where I'm at in Texas, there aren't many trails. I've traveled to some places but now that my OEM tires are getting a bit worn, I'm a little hesitant to be far from home on a trail and have an issue. I'll try to upgrade for the summer though!
I've been considering a Ranger, mostly because of the bed utility. But I've gotten by for 44 years so it may not be that important.
What made you switch from the Ranger to the Bronco Sport?
I use Apple Music because it’s bundled with iCloud storage. But there’s also Spotify, Pandora, and probably several others.
As far as connectivity, you can use CarPlay, android auto, Bluetooth, or just an auxiliary cable.
I've had SiriusXM in my last 3 cars. I did the trial once and never really had a desire to use it after that. I pay for Apple Music and that's plenty of entertainment for me.
As for Honda? It might be they either don't want to deal with that or SXM isn't paying them enough.
Do you have heavy snow and ice where you are? Would that be a concern when buying tires? Would you ever have any chance of going off road?
I'm in south Texas so I can't really speak about snow and ice but if you're doing just local and some highway, I'd look for a decent brand one that has...
Normal.
I haven't come across anything to use slippery in yet. I use sand at the beach, mostly if the sand is really loose. If it's hard/compact I just leave it in normal.
Have y'all seen the 2026 Passport? Especially the TrailSport trim? It's a little tempting, especially coming from Honda to Ford.
I do love my BS, though. For my next vehicle, it may be a BS BL, Bronco, or the Passport...
Who did your alignment? Sam's?
And I appreciate the write up. I'll probably need to replace my OE tires in the next 6 months so I'm starting to do some research. These and BFG Trail Terrains are on the list. Maybe Firestone Destination AT2, mostly because there's a Firestone 5 minutes from...
Warranty is covering it but yes, the front works fine. I do not hear anything when I pull it for the rear.
The lady that called to tell me seemed a little off. For the low coolant, she said it was my a/c condenser. I asked what that had to do with coolant and she said it's hard to read but...
I dropped mine off and picked it up from Ford.
I had a few issues I wanted them to look at. The weather stripping on the rear passenger door near the wheel well, losing coolant, rattling in the rear (flex between muffler and pipe), and rear washer squirter wasn't working.
All parts on back...
Do they fit without any modifications (other than moving the floor to the upper level)?
I'm really leaning towards the Trail Terrains. I do mostly pavement driving but I'd like to take it to the beach or some trails. There's not much where I live in Texas (other than beach) so it's something...
Mine stopped working also around the time we had some freezing temperatures in Texas.
I took it to Ford today and they said I'll need a new pump. It's on backorder.
So it looks like the speed difference might not be that big of an issue.
My next concern is making sure I can fit a full size spare in the back with little to no modifications. Is it just a matter of moving the floor to the upper level? I think I remember a difference between the standard and...
