Well, *some* of us do, but we also look at the big picture and long-term..... To me, it's like this. Every time you burn a gallon of gasoline or diesel fuel, you're polluting the air with the emissions it gives off, and that process hasn't really changed in 100+ years of making internal...

Yep.... I'm just not a Prius fan at all. I hate the stigma attached to them, not to mention they offer some of the ugliest colors for them I've ever seen on motor vehicles. But a high cost of operation and maintenance really isn't one of their issues. If you search YouTube for Prius battery...

I'm not a younger car buyer, but I've experienced Tesla's sales model and I think it's probably the future, really. The dealerships are just unnecessary middle-men, at the end of the day. Where Tesla has fallen short is simply lack of funds to do everything they originally planned or envisioned...

Interesting.... If I can find one of these for under $100 on eBay, I'll probably go ahead and add it too. One thing I wonder, though? I already have the 4DTech engine start/stop eliminator, which is basically just a wiring harness with a small circuit board spliced in. It, too, plugs into the...

I found a YouTube video where a guy explains the procedure for his Mini Cooper:

I'm not so sure? I don't know almost any manufacturer who would "recommend" a catch can, or would include one as standard equipment. That doesn't mean they have no merit. Rather, it means they decided it was going to cause more problems than it was worth from the people who don't keep up with...

So... I ordered one of these too, after reading so much about it here. (I went through that "Light in the Box" Asian vendor.) I believe this CarlinKit is version 4.0, but I'm using it with an iPhone 13 Pro, not an Android.) So far, my opinion is that, "Eh.... yeah. It works." Can't really...

Took the new Bronco Sport Badlands on a road trip that was over 1650 miles round-trip, with a couple of my friends. Went from Illinois down to Ponchatoula, Louisiana to visit another mutual friend of ours and his family, as kind of a mini-vacation trip for all of us. (The day after we arrived...

What many people don't realize about Sirius XM satellite is, they made a financial decision, long ago, that it was more valuable to cram as much audio content over limited satellite bandwidth than to use better sounding higher bit-rates. They attempt to compensate for this by using some...

Just here to add that I just got one of these false collision warnings for the first time, after 2650 miles or so of driving on my '22 Bronco Sport Badlands. It was a sunny day, about 95 degrees outside, and I was traveling about 40MPH on a straight piece of road with only a couple of cars at...

I hate to say it, but as a Tesla owner who also has a Bronco Sport? It's painful to see how far behind Ford is with all of this "connected" stuff. The fact they have to remove features (like Journeys) and are re-thinking the whole concept of adding apps to the Sync menus vs CarPlay access tells...

Audio is always REALLY subjective, especially when you have people who value high quality sound more than others to begin with. (One person's "terrible!" is another person's "pretty decent".) I'm not a strict audiophile in the sense I've never spent BIG money on the elite brands for home or car...

I've said some of this before, but as much as I really like my Bronco Sport Badlands, I'm no "Ford apologist" and I was pretty disappointed with 2 other Ford products I owned in the past. (Bought a '99 Ranger truck brand new and it had an O2 sensor fail and put it in "limp home" mode the first...

Yeah, Ford is getting too greedy here. Just because they made a really popular vehicle doesn't mean it will stay that way at a higher price point. I think they're going to run into the same thing with the Maverick.... These were supposed to be great values for the dollar ... not "great deals...

Thanks, but unless I missed something -- that post talks only about removing the inside trim on the a-pillar. It's the outside piece I had questions about.

Ok ... so dumb question, perhaps? But how would I go about removing this outer A pillar trim? I purchased an LED light bar and installed it, but I tried to shove the wire from it under this piece of trim, rather than popping it off. Problem seems to be, when you do it the way I did? The wire...

I never said anything about expecting Ford to cater to "every single option" on my Bronco Sport! And I definitely know I didn't "buy the wrong vehicle", since as I've said before -- this is my second vehicle that I don't want to use for my daily commute. This replaced an old Chrysler minivan...

Nothing wrong w/this advice. But I will say, I like the look of the rocker type switches much better than these push buttons, which to me, don't look as much like they could have come from the factory. I put a rocker switch in for my light bar, and bought a switch plate from Rough Country...

Yeah, sorry buddy -- but I don't buy into your rant here, just like I didn't when Chrysler upcharged me $1800 or so for the "Alpine Premium" stereo system in my Jeep using a junky paper-cone excuse for a bass subwoofer and mediocre sound quality, at best, coupled with a poor quality GPS nav...

How so? The video you linked to was one I found on Road and Track's web page talking about this very topic, and they say, "A study by the Society of Automotive Engineers found that using start-stop can see a car's fuel economy improve by over eight percent in heavy traffic." This video doesn't...
