    Adding a seat cushion?

    Has anyone found a good seat cushion to lay on the BS driver's seat? I'm only 5'7" and 170 lbs. I'd like a little more height and a little softer ride. Has anyone found a good cushion that fits the BS seat well... perhaps one of those made by Purple?

    Dealer service backlogs

    I had my Badlands in for its second oil change last week. I asked about service in case I needed something other than oil, and he said that it's still a 4-6 week wait! They are having trouble finding mechanics!

    Anybody at the Winter 4X4 Jamboree out of Hurricane, Utah this week?

    I wish I was there with my son. He is there with his "new to him" recently lifted 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee. He's having a blast with guided groups on many trails of varying difficulty levels. These pics from yesterday.

    Explain tire sizer relative to lifts

    I have very little knowledge of lift kits, suspension kits, levelling kits etc. I understand lifting for improved ground clearance and ability to run larger diameter tires, which in turn also give you more ground clearance. What confuses me with the Bronco Sport (I have a Badlands) is how...

    2nd and 3rd gear ratio difference?

    Why is there such little difference between 2nd and 3rd gear? 3.31 and 3.01.

    Finally got the ‘22 Badlands off road!

    South of Saratoga Springs, UT. We went to five locations today west and south of Utah Lake. I easily made it up Little Moab!

    BS tire pressure accuracy!

    How accurate are you finding your Bronco Sport’s tire pressure monitoring system, compared to a good hand held meter?

    Air pump recommendations...

    2022 Badlands here... I have a small 12 volt Bonaire tire pump (see below) that I've had for several years. (Home Dept around $39) It's fed by a long cable that plugs into a 12 volt outlet. I have no idea what it's output is, but it's not much. Of course in my Badlands, I have both 12V and A/C...

    Looking for a new BADLANDS badge

    I want to remove the two BADLANDS badges from the sides of my BS. Then I want to buy a new one to put on the rear lift gate, opposite my FORD emblem. Are those available from Ford?

    Ford's Prepaid Scheduled Maintenance Plan - changing oil earlier

    7 weeks now with my Badlands... and purchased the prepaid regular maintenance plan. The one I got was for the earlier of 5 years or 75,000 miles... 10 services. Using the Motorcraft Synthetic Blend here in the south Texas heat, I plan to change oil every 5,000 miles. I figure this will help with...

    I sure hope nothing nothing breaks on my new Badlands. SLOW SERVICE!

    I was at my Ford dealer yesterday to pick up an accessor. While there I was discussing oil changes with the service manager. He said that if I needed service (other than oil changes) it would take 3 weeks to get an appointment and then it would sit in the shop for 10 days before they looked at it!

    Not very observant!

    Six weeks today with my Badlands… just noticed tonight that the fog lights come on (left or right) when turning left or right.

    How to stop my Badlands from "waking up" every time I open a door?

    Is there any way to stop my Badlands from "waking up" every time I open a door. Dash comes alive... rocks transform into a bucking bronco... headlights come on (with fan) etc... seems like a lot of unnecessary activity when I just wanted to get my cell phone that I left on the passenger seat!

    Booked Austin Bronco Off-Roadeo

    I just booked a Saturday class at Bronco Off-Roadeo Texas (outside of Austin) for my 15 year old grandson and I on June 18. It's only an hour drive north of my home, so we'll make it a day trip.
