Minor Update, Still No Information:
I went to Lithia Ford in Boise Idaho today, I confess I had some inflated hopes that I may encounter a Ford representative that seemed to care. Sadly that didn't seem to be the case.
I was told that there was a 2 week wait list to drop off my car, which...
Team:
My apologies, I know I need to post an update, especially since so many of you were so incredible in offering help.
As a recap, I moved from Texas to Idaho, I started a new job, and I'm a single Dad. I've had like no life for about the last 6 weeks.
A few things I'll mention, Idaho is...
Team:
Dude, I know I owe you information, and I'll get to that as soon as I'm able. Sorry in the middle of a move, working on the car, getting ready for a new job, etc.
Just in case anyone is reading this and would like to know how things worked out, I ended up contacting Monarch Transport...
Uncle Buck:
Yes, unfortunately that is where I landed as well and started on it last night, will likely try to get that ironed out today. I appreciate the advice my friend.
Happy Trails...

Dude:
Thanks for the reply/help.
I did not check to make sure the wire was grounded, but all the work that has been done on my car has been done by professionals. I get it, that doesn't mean it was done right, but it does raise the possibilities. The lift was done by the the dealership in...
Dude:
Thanks for the reply. I appreciate the suggestion.
I've pampered my Bronco Sport, I have done various mods/upgrades on it. Back in December 23, it started having an electrical problem and was in the shop for two weeks. At that time, trying to fix the concern, the dealer replaced a ton...
Hey BS’ers!
Hope everyone is well, I have recently accepted a new job in Boise Idaho, I’ve been looking to move to the area for years and finally was given the opportunity.
On 9/24, movers came and loaded everything up into trucks and took it away for delivery on 10/1. I stayed in Texas for a...
BS'ers...
I'm a strong believer that in every challenge or obstacle there is also an opportunity.
On Friday 2/16 I was challenged with how to kill about 2 hours in Salina Kansas (from around 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.) after my late check out at the Homewood Suites (awesome hotel in Salina by the...
I guess I'm going to try to support Mark S. here, though he doesn't seem to need it.
My car was in the shop for a electrical issue, it was in the shop for about 2.5 weeks. When I got it back I noticed it was pulling to the right at speed (80+ mph). It wasn't alot, but I don't remember it...
Hey Chiefthepup:
Not really, I'm a data analyst and honestly have learned more about cars since getting the Sport than I had known my entire life before hand.
From what I can tell this "generic electrical problem" where it says something about the charge system can be related to like 1 of 6...
BS'ers:
I've got a 2023 BS Badlands with less than 10K on it (think 9.9 now). Anyway, I had no issues for 11 months, it was awesome and then a significant electrical issue that caused it to spend 3 weeks in the shop while they were troubleshooting. I confess I was crushed and despaired of...
bluebabybronc:
I have a 23 Badlands with the Ford Ranger Lifts 1.75" Lift kit, which is what I think you are referring to.
I didn't install mine, I had the dealership do it. I don't remember what they charged me, but I think it was around $800.
Anyway, I have a ton of mods on my car, thanks...
BabyBronc21:
I have a 23 Badlands and have made just about all the mods I can think of (not exhaust stuff). Lift kit, Spacers(eventually will replace the tires, but these are new), lights, JCR skid plates, JCR Rock Sliders, etc.
Like everyone else said, it really depends on what you are going...
Wireman:
The flares are the fender flare additions that you can upgrade to with the Bronco Sport, I think you can add them after market.
They also make them in the color of the vehicle, but I liked the look of these. I believe they call it the Type 1 Fender Flare.
I do like the aesthetic...
TxHill:
The Nerf Bar (I think your referring to the side steps/rock rails) are from JCR.
Be aware you have to also get the Evap and Floor Skid.
In addition to everything else, I have a full set of Rock Rails and Skid Plates from JCR, with the exception of the Bash Plate.
I ordered it, but...
Sleddog:
My kids have been saying the same thing (about the blue lights). In truth I RARELY use them, but it was a splurge (see above)....
That said I can just as easily go with purple or green or anything else...
I honestly hope the police in my area have better things to do than worry...
BS'ers:
The Nudge Bar was somewhat expensive, but honestly if I get what I want I'm not too picky. This was pretty much the only Nudge bar I liked that wouldn't obscure the forward facing camera (stock on a Badlands).
I don't know if the bar is completely solid, but it appears so, so no...
Fellow BS'ers...
Put on a few mods this weekend was going to share the experience...
First, I paid to have these mods put in at Car Toys in North McKinney Texas. Zach there is the installer I work with and I think the only one that I want touching my car, he is very committed to his craft and...
IowaBS:
Nice Ride! When you get comfortable would likely your opinion of how the Bronco Sport comapres to your Grand Cherokee.
My Girlfriend has a 2020(?) Grand Cherokee bought just before the pandemic at $38K (honestly it was a steal at that price especially right before the car market...
Team:
Thanks so much for all the posts/responses.
I completely agree at how pathetic it is to STEAL a $20 item. I know it could just be kids, but I can't see why they would want it.
I live in the North Texas area around Frisco, McKinney, Allen. It is a pretty affluent area (I'm not all...
