  1. Clever little details.

    Most places that people backpack and adventure into (i.e., the places the BS is advertised to take you) have no-glass policies in place (and for good reason). It's precisely because of this that so many microbeers (craft beers and premium beverages) are actually are packaged in cans. Cans...
  2. Best OBD to USB cable for FordScan

    I'm not talking down to you. Anyone looking to get into reprogramming their Ford vehicle should spend a lot of time reading about it. That's sound advice to anyone and I wouldn't consider anyone above that type of advice. I'm not sure why that's offensive to you, but it wasn't intended as...
  3. Clever little details.

    While I appreciate things like MOLLE straps on the backs of seats, I wish Ford would have instead focused on bigger things like heated rear seats, power liftgate, and myriad other features that are common across the segment but conspicuous by their absence in the BS. Clever details only win...
  4. Best OBD to USB cable for FordScan

    First of all, it's called FORScan, not FordScan. I only point this out because not knowing the name of the program could be an indication that you haven't researched it very much. I'd recommend doing a lot of reading on FORScan, how to set it up, and how to use it. There is a good thread here...
  5. 1.5L towing long distances. Share your reports / experiences

    Just make sure to take note of payload. Tow capacity is a marketing gimmick. The real number is payload, which is a derivative of GVWR. Most of these rigs will have available payload of 900 - 1,100 lbs (check your door jamb sticker, this number is vehicle-specific and cannot be looked up...
  6. If you could choose a new option/color...

    Some of those, for sure, would add to the already-class-leading price. Suspension, larger engine, etc. However, the first half of my list would not. Heated rear seats, cooled front seats, HUD, different leather options, power liftgate, and a few others are all features already found on...
  7. If you could choose a new option/color...

    Options: Heated rear seats Power liftgate HUD A/C front seats 360-degree camera (top down view, etc.) 2.3L option True rear and front locker option Better skid plate option Bronco logo light that shines on the ground when you open the doors (like Mercedes and such) Alternate color leather...
  8. Leaking rear roof 21’ OB

    I'm not sure what you did to your BS to extend its length to 21 feet, but that may have had something to do with the leak. Seriously, though, I've not seen this issue mentioned in the recent exhaustive search I did on the BS. It's a completely different vehicle, but on an older Explorer I...
  9. 6 Switch Auxbeam Switchbox installed !

    For anyone deciding to pierce an existing factory grommet where other factory wiring is present, I highly recommend one of these piercing wiring tools: The handle is hollow, so it's a continuous "tube" to run a cable/wire through. This allows you to pierce the grommet and run your wire...
  10. Windshield Chips

    I don't expect that everyone will have the same experience is me. We are all different, drive differently, etc. I'm not so arrogant as to expect that I speak for all of mankind. With that said, I have detailed my experience above and my conclusion remains the same and I'll quote myself: I...
  11. Windshield Chips

    My 2019 F-350 went through 3 windshields in about 14 months. All were OEM glass. Every one was an immediate crack -- no fixable star cracks. All were on paved roads. The last straw was when I was in a state park (still a paved road) and going about 20 mph. Car in front of me (a little xuv)...
  12. The 1.5 Bronco

    And everyone regards those neutered engines of the late 70s as weak. So, I really don't understand what point you are trying to make here.
  13. Bronco Sport Order Tracking List & Stats [Enter Yours!]

    Why are people continuing to submit orders to the **2021** order tracker? What am I missing?
  14. What is selling more of: Bronco or Bronco Sport?

    In the last 16 months living in NE Iowa, I haven't seen a single Bronco. I've seen a number of BS on the road. It's definitely a regional thing. I also see MUCH fewer Jeep Wranglers out here, too (I used to live in CO). So, it's probably hard to gauge the ratio based on responses and...
  15. OEM Pirelli Scorpions any good

    It doesn't help with vehicles on the lot, but the optional A/T tires are around $550 +/- if you order a BS. That puts a true A/T tire on the vehicle and it's the Falken Wildpeak A/T, which is a really good tire for both performance and wear. Again, doesn't help with vehicles on the lot, but...
  16. Does anyone actually pull a trailer

    I will occasionally pull a small 10' utility trailer with our BL, when it arrives. Nothing heavy -- similar to the items you discussed. There should be no capability issues with towing lawnmowers and other lightweight items. Filling up the trailer with gravel or other dense, heavy items would...
  17. What made you buy the Bronco Sport?

    I answered in the other thread: https://www.broncosportforum.com/forum/threads/why-did-you-order-a-bronco-sport.5134/page-10#post-146544
  18. Has the Wi-Fi hotspot been eliminated from all models going forward?

    Ordered a BS in early March 2023 and the order confirmation does have the $20 credit on the sheet -- no WiFi hotspot. My 2019 F-350 came with that feature. I used the promo period and it was completely worthless. My kids tried to stream some video on a trip and chewed through the data in...
  19. Why did you order a Bronco Sport?

    We just ordered a BS BL and we did so because we wanted crossover utility vehicle that was capable on poorly maintained gravel roads, mud, snow, and similar driving conditions. AWD or 4WD, A/T tires, and a decent stance. There are few things we really didn't like about the BS: It's probably...
