I've gone through all the settings until I'm blue in the face and can't find this setting. I'm our neighborhood watch coordinator and sometimes need to get out of my vehicle and leave it running without announcing to trespassers/ night time thieves. Can some one tell me how to do this? Thanks.

I get a morning financial brief from Yahoo Finance and this morning they are reporting: Tesla (TSLA) fell 2.8% Thursday after rental car company Hertz (HTZ) said it would sell 20,000 EVs, or about a third of its fleet, and replace these cars with gas-powered vehicles. Hertz shares fell 4% on...

Thinking about getting a Midland MXT575 MicroMobile-50 Watt GMRS Radio. I have no experience with them and don't know anyone who does. I like this mini because it would be easy to fit in the BS. Could mount under the seat and all controls are on the mic which could be mounted on the console...

Woody Ford delivered my new 23 BL yesterday. Love the Eruption green. Photos don't do it justice. Have to see it in bright sunlight to appreciate. I just logged into Ford Pass, deleted my 21 BL and added the 23. It's still shown pending. Question will this generate the points and add them to...

Just read on Ford Authority than there is a $1750 cash rebate on 23 models. It figures. Mine is being delivered today and I got $1000. Read details. Ford Bronco Sport Discount Offers $1750 Off August 2023 (fordauthority.com)

Ford Authority reports that BS production was up 50% in May. They are hiring an additional 1100 factory workers at the Hermosillo plant to increase BS and Maverick production. Good news for those of us with orders pending. Of course adding additional workers doesn't preclude supply chain...

Talking to my grandson and fiance (wedding in May) the other night and she said she is thinking about a new vehicle. Maybe a Volvo SUV. Last spring I rented a beach house on the Texas coast and they came over and visited us from Houston. We drove the beach and some NWR's in my BS. Grandson...

A heads up. It's usually a really cold morning when your battery goes and mine was no exception on my 2021 BL. Battery gave no indication it was getting weak. When I got in the dash was black and start button made no noise. Tried a jump box I carry in back and it wouldn't work. Got out my...

Gas prices are the most obvious and arguably painful purchase for consumers in this inflationary period. They especially bother my wife, she thinks we should cancel any road trips for this year. Maybe my explanation to her will help others feel a little better about this politically induced...

Sitting here this morning wondering what my oil life is. Opened the Ford app and it showed the location of my vehicle about a mile away. Refreshed it a couple of times and it still showed that. I just installed an app to open/close my garage door and my mind is wondering did I get hacked, car...

Had to share this fender flare hack. What the heck? Why not? It's winter now and the kids aren't using the wading pool anyway. Show pics of yours when installed.

Visited Hagerman NWR on the south shores of Lake Texoma over the w/e to chase some birds and photo. Took some interesting roads. Several years ago many oil wells were drilled out in the waters of Texoma. Some have dikes built out to them so that vehicles can service them. Most are not...

The Lil Blue Bronco took us down to the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge in SW Oklahoma yesterday. It was initially founded as the nation's first bison refuge and it's mission later expanded. It's a great place to view bison, elk, deer and turkey. The Wichita Mountains are among the oldest...

Good news is the driver is alive. Just because Mitch Creel did Black Bear in a BS, don't assume you can. The badge looks to be an Outer Banks. It is the gray vehicle in the photos, not easy to immediately recognize as a BS. News report / info: *Black Bear Pass and Bridal Veil Rd...

Decisions, decisions. Which shall I drive today. Headed to a regional police combat pistol match. Three day match, today is the OK State Championship. Border Patrol, Customs and ICE have teams here. Some good shooters. I am the photographer.

Looks like Ford is going to try something transformational in auto marketing. Ford Moving toward Build-to-Order, Away from Packed Dealer Lots (msn.com) Sounds like a good option, no one enjoys the current car buying process. Should be good competition for lowest price, but dealers will still...

Scratched the black piano trim when I rubbed a small oak branch rather than high center. The paint got rubbed, too. But, isn't scratched. I've seen some threads about this trim coming from the factory scratched, but has anyone dealt with removing scratches? I'm still in northern New Mexico...

Edmund's is one of the most respected names in auto ratings and car value guides. They put the BS up against the Subaru Forester and picked the Forester as best for the average buyer. Guess I'm not the average buyer. Who wants to be average? I'm sure Ford is disappointed with this. Are you...

There is a screen in the off road settings that shows your tilt angle and descent/ascent. Just wondering at what angle does a BS roll? I never want to see that number on my screen! :)

Thought it might be fun to post photos of our BS"s in the wild. As little pavement as possible. I'll start off with a photo I took from the summit of Mt. Scott in the Wichita Mountains of SW OK. Included is a sunrise pic with it in the background.
