    Default to Eco Mode : DIY How-To

    I'm pretty disappointed overall with the BS MPG. I pay attention to driving smoothly and I'm still praising the heavens when I can get 24 MPG city. It's a little embarrassing that Ford has put such a weak emphasis on efficiency. I mean, mine's a 2021 and it's a 3 cylinder (edited!) - it...

    Overnight battery life?

    Howdy. About to do a spectacular run of show for my favorite band that'll involve car "camping" in a parking garage. Going to get a 9v car fan for overnight circulation and curious if anyone has had experience with this and if it was 1) safe to keep on all night without draining battery and 2)...

    Storage bin behind touch screen?

    Small world, that is my plate! The tires went to a good home, but sorry I didn't catch your email earlier.

    Anyone else curious about Bronze Smoke Metallic for 2022

    Yuuuuup. Kodiak brown just looks like it belongs outdoors. Bronze - of any color - belongs in a parking garage. Or museum.

    Kinda Obsessed

    Got a wave on the road from a rare, in-the-wild Big Bronco this week. #family #bigsiblingaffirmation

    Awesome, thanks for the update. How does it look, in your opinion?

    Did we talk on H Street in DC?

    The scene: Mid-July, Washington DC. Me: At a stoplight in a white Big Bend, about to turn onto H Street NE. You: Pulled up next to me in a Area 51 or Cactus Grey Big Bend (I think) and honked, then we with all the excitement of new parents gushing over their babies. Say hey if that was you!

    Best bang for the buck for me has been the OEM rubber floor mats. Love hosing them off and not coaxing dirt and crunched leaves out of the carpet mats. Also did the Falken Wildpeak A/T3W, but went with the 235s. Great so far with no noticeable increase in highway road noise. Add recovery...

    Storage bin behind touch screen?

    Sweet, thanks. It's wicked cheap but I don't wanna buy any extra plastic for no reason, you know? Dig the profile pic, too.

    Storage bin behind touch screen?

    Might spring for this dash storage bin to keep sunglasses, etc. and curious if anyone else has experience with it?

    So I saw my first "big" Bronco yesterday and ...

    Can't get a Big Bronco until hybrid or electrical comes online. The gas and carbon cost is just too great. The MPG hit from my 2015 hybrid Fusion (34.5 over 33K miles) to this combined 20.5 MPG.... woof. All that to say, how the hecky brah are you pulling 29.6? All backroad, no stopping...

    What did you do TO your Bronco Sport today?

    Solved my sticker situation, finally. A thousand points to naming all the jolly rogers correctly: Easter eggs on the driver's door frame (lil' Bronco Sport took the crew to the Phish shows in Hershey and Atlantic City): Whitebeard's decal on the moonroof throwing a shadow:

    Dash Cover

    No jeers, all cheers from me. Following along to see where this lands. The main miss on the BS is the deep black, heat sink that is the dashboard. It just radiates heat into the cabin and while I'm not dead yet, it's low-level killing me. The cover in the link doesn't jump out to me. A BS...

    June Builds sitting in the Mexican Desert

    I second the luck, dealer roulette, and not hesitating to sign the papers response. I'll add a having to stomach going over MSRP, too, as that was part of my experience. (Worth it so far.)

    White Big Bend model has almost invisible BRONCO SPORT logo on rear hatch door. A can of Matte Black Plasti Dip really dresses it up nicely.

    I ordered the black lettering for my white BB and wound up returning it (three weeks later and still waiting for my refund.... *glares at Levittown*). I've put a bunch of decals on the window and felt the black on white would have made things too cluttered.

    Stay Away from Koons Ford Falls Church, VA

    You dodged a bullet here. I bought my 2016 Fusion Hybrid from them and regretted it straight away. Not only did I not get as good of a price as they indicated (mud on my face for not doing more research), they gave no bits about me once I left the showroom. Service was habitually poor and...

    Feedback request for A/Ts for Big Bend....

    Right you are. Had it flipped in my mind because, well, simple math is my kryptonite.
