I opted up to the OB with a tow package to get the black roof and a full size spare and then had to special order to get that combination without a sunroof or Tech package upgrade!

Have some similar stains that I believe are due to some zinc based sun protection products. Annoying, but I have a Bronco Sport and get to spend time in the sun. Life is good.

Great post! I am planning to make a few trips towing that same trailer next year and will have this bookmarked to review and follow. Thanks so much for taking the time to share!

In order to meet the ever growing customer expectations for bells and whistles, cars have become more and more complex and thus prone to failures of both software and mechanical systems. More features = more problems.

23 Outer Banks with about 23k on it. I was afraid to go get the PCM and Sync recalls done last week for fear they would mess up my good thing! But not having to turn the radio off has been nice.

I’m with you. Beyond helping salespersons and buyers on the lot identify one model vs another they do nothing for me. I think part of my problem is that “Badges” is a generous term for them, they are essentially just a thick sticker with no substance on a car that is supposed to exude substance.

Thanks to the darn forum I now wince and study my windshield carefully, expecting the worst, every time a piece of sand tinks on my windshield.

The only real purpose for a vehicle is to get you and your stuff from point A to point B safely and efficiently. When a vehicles large size, and many of its features, and thus cost, have nothing to do with those purposes it is easy for consumers to decide that buying food and fixing their roof...

Takin care of daddy’s girl. Love it.

I want them to keep it EXACTLY like it is. So it will be easier for the mechanic to get parts and repair things on my 2023 8-10 years from now!

Thanks. The outer slots accommodate 4x8 goods. Easy to store, easy to put on and off. The occasional lumber run was the only thing I was going to need crossbars for in the near future and I did not want to be looking at them the other 360 days of the year. A design challenge and an excuse to use...

If I had thought a hybrid might be out in 2024 would I have delayed my 2023 purchase? Maybe? Nah, if I cared that much about a more luxurious interior and getting a hybrid I would have bought the CRV.

What? Engine Sound enhancement!? It never occurred to me that my baby was faking it.

I am always interested in reading about other owners actual negative experiences so I can be prepared if something similar occurs to me. Some of these problems, like the battery issues, turn out to be worthy of recalls! But I do tire of the 2.0 owners making generalized statements about the...

Those adjustable lights on the back hatch! We are often loading and leaving for trips at O-dark-thirty. Makes that so much nicer.

I had to special order my OB in Atlanta to get 360+ and the tow package without the tech package and moon roof. All the dealers had the OB’s loaded with candy but not the vegetables of function or safety. I equate it to houses with granite counters and deluxe showers but cheap windows and low...

Umm, is it safe to say, “Yea! Glad other to hear some other people are enjoying the car as much as I do!”?

Sigh, Another premium gas thread to hit the ignore button on.
