Amen to that. It's such a pointless and aggravating feature that supposedly saves fuel which is why the federal government is cracking on automakers to standardize it. The way I look at it, it puts so much more wear and tear on your starter motor. All those extra start/stop cycles can't be...
Honestly, I knew a lot about the car before finally purchasing one but there were a couple of features that shocked me along the way, none that are too major but still worth mentioning. One was the driver's seat moving back after turning the car off for easy egress. And the one I discovered...
What you want to do is click the menu button, hit screens, make sure the calm screen is checked and turn your lane keep assist off. This way you have a big, dead center speedometer.
And mine falls within the time frame. I first checked my old order emails and the day I got the built email was on Dec. 21, 2022. And then I checked my Ford account and sure enough, there's an open recall notice that was issued on March 14. Just when I thought it only affected 21s and 22s, it...
Eh, Toyota is not what is used to be when it comes to longevity and reliability so who knows how this one is gonna hold up. The third-gen Tundra's launch was a disaster, the new Tacoma I'm sure is next, the Land Cruiser will be about the same since it's the same platform, and the new 4Runner is...
I'm a sucker for the full-size Bronco. But, there's two main things that drove us away. One, price. Two, fuel economy.
On long trips, the B.S. can easily accomplish 33-34 mpg whereas the big boy hovers in the teens no matter what kind of driving.
Bronco prices always have and always will be...
I'm part of the majority on here. We've had our '23 BS OBX for over a year and just like many others have already mentioned, I haven't experienced any of the issues the OP has mentioned.
We drove it from Florida to Connecticut and back and not a single squeak or rattle throughout the whole...
Just wanted to show off some photos of my mom's 2023 Ford Bronco Sport Outer Banks that I just detailed after taking it in for routine maintenance. The pollen levels are at extreme highs so as a result, it's taking a toll on our vehicles. Living under an oak tree doesn't help matters. So it...
Couldn't agree more on the design. It's definitely retro modern. It has all the conveniences you can expect out of a modern-day compact SUV but with 60s retro styling. IMHO, it doesn't look like any other compact SUV but it does look like one particular SUV that gets high praise when it comes...
I did something similar to this a while ago but not for the same reason. Being in South Florida in all, I don't have to worry about snow but I do wipe the blades off from time to time to improve their longevity. I realized that you can manually grab the wiper arm and both wipers move freely...
I think it still looks the same since its debut. It's still on its first generation with the same exact body style and sheet metal but has had some mid-cycle refreshes starting in 2022 with the inclusion of their new logo, then in 2023 with new headlights, taillights, grille, and interior...
There's lot of haters on this redesign. For me, I dig it! It looks like a Land Rover Defender which is high caliber to compare a Hyundai to a Land Rover. I will say I am kinda sick of this SUV and crossover craze but if you're going to do it, kick it old school with the upright, boxy designs...
I'm not really phased by it. Granted, if I need to swap the cars in the driveway without making too much noise, I'll keep the fobs in each vehicle to prevent the double honk but to be honest, it's not a big deal. For me it's a good way to know that the fob is on my person and the car is just...
Looks interesting. I also noticed that the gauge cluster will be updated and a new feature on the outside is added with those side-view cameras on the mirrors. Same goes for the Maverick. Although no interior shots of the Maverick, I can safely say that if the B.S. gets the new wide Sync 4...
It's a toss-up for me. It's between my first two vehicles that were HEMI's. The first being....
2009 Dodge Challenger R/T
And the second one: 2013 RAM 1500 Express
Both were very good-looking and reliable vehicles with plenty of power! I was fortunate to have both of them back when gas...
The trending topics is on the main page of this forum. As soon as you click this site, that's where they are. You'll have the trending topics on the top portion with threads that have thumbnails towards the bottom. That's what I meant.
I have three of these in this picture. The Matchbox obviously (considering my thread is still on the trending page as of this writing) and two Greenlights: the Heritage Edition and the Falken Tires livery. Once the Maverick gets some diecast love, I'm getting as many of those too!
I'd love to see it back too. It was so unique compared to other SUVs. Suicide doors in the rear, three wiper blades, utilitarian interior layout, spare tire on the tailgate, and two-tone paint. And they are very reliable with tremendous resale value. It was just a matter of bad timing. It...
