    Underbody panel replacement

    I did some self-inflicted damage over the weekend, going over a rock on the driver side. Luckily that was while backing out, ie at low speed. Tore up that flimsy underbody cover (not sure what it's called) at about front driver door half point. I had to cut out a small piece of it entirely as...

    Climate control - mind of its own

    Could somebody explain to me how to keep recirculated air from turning itself off please? No matter which mode I use, automatic or manual control that is, recirculated air switches off after a while. Went over the manual. Seems like automatic climate control is the only mode when recirculated...

    Yokohama vs Pirelli vs Falken

    Choices, choices. :confused: I plan on staying with 225/65R17 tire size. My picks so far: Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015, Scorpion All Terrain Plus and Falken WildPeak A/T Trail. My driving pattern is 90% highway with half of that over mountain terrain, another 5% in town and last 5% over hilly...

    Fog lights

    Hi all, This is a stupid question likely... BS being my first Ford, how does one turn fog lights on? ? I assumed there had to be some sort of dedicated button. Couldn't find it. Checked the manual, it's vague, so still can't figure it out. I'd appreciate some help with that. Thanks!

    If you can't get Bronco Sport then what?

    If you order gets delayed further past your personal deadline, or you can't find the configuration of your choice, then what would you get instead? Curious about other's back up plan. I'm planning ahead and thinking either new or used 4Runner or may be Outback. Haven't decided yet. FTR, not...

    Waiting room

    I know you warned me, delays and all... ordered Badlands with Badlands package, cargo management, hitch, grey roof, etc on 2/17. Got Ford's order email confirmation the same day. And... nothing since. I don't think I'm getting it by the end of May anymore. I'm hoping for some movement on my...

    Ford owner account and order tracking

    I'm new to Ford so apologies if this might be obvious to some of you. I setup new Ford owner account a couple of weeks ago. Had BS order submitted for me by the dealer against the same email account I registered with on Ford owner site. Is there any way to track the order status through my Ford...

    Anyone notice the inconsistency on Ford's site pricing Badlands?

    Anyone notice the inconsistency on Ford's site pricing Badlands? Adding either Co-Pilot360, Cargo Mat or Cargo Management System removes $500 incentives discount. Odd. Must be web site glitch. Kind of makes it hard to save a hard copy of the MSRP (I still cringe thinking MSRP's what I'm gonna...

    Test drive - suspension

    Got to test drive Big Bend today cause that's all the closest dealer had available. I am interested in Badlands with Badlands package so it's not a fair comparison but I figured driving dynamics, usability, visibility and comfort should be more or less the same. Likes: Liked the size, how it...

    Confused about splash guards

    Hi all, Ford's build site has those splash guards listed at $220 while accessories list has them for $100 for both front and rear. I'm confused about the discrepancy. Could anyone who had figured it out clarify it please? I'm almost inclined to order them separately. Thanks in advance.

    When to order?

    Hi everyone, I'm targeting getting new BS at the end of May, if I can pull that off. At that point I'll be hard pressed to get a car as I'm gonna be driving someone else's loaner. Seeing the unpredictability of the ordering process caused by production delays, which are apparently due to supply...

    Transporting lumber

    Hi all, First post here. Don't have a BS yet, plan on getting one in April/May timeframe. Haven't decided whether I'm gonna chance it and look for one on the lot or order one through the dealer. I'm coming from a previous generation RAV4. I've always stayed with Toyotas and the plan was to get...
