  1. The 1st year update

    Update. So we took the BS to the dealer. Told him about the information not staying in the memory. The resetting to get it to work. The wi-fi not working with it, etc. We left it with Ford all day. When we got it back everything worked. Everything my wife complained about was working...
  2. The 1st year update

    2023 Badlands. I've been driving this around for a year now, 22,770 miles. To Minneapolis many times, St Louis twice, Nashville, Chicago twice, you get the picture. Great ride, gas milage is always around 29-30 mpg on the highway, no trouble passing people with the 2.0L, no trouble exceeding...

  4. Sync/iphone

    I like to use Waze for my ā€œmapā€ because I’m used to it. I also like to listen to books on wireless ear podswhen I drive. When my phone is plugged into Sync or wirelessly connected I lose the ability to listen on my ear pods. Is there an easy way I can have my ear pods as the speaker when using...
  5. First Oil Change Thoughts on 2.0L EcoBoost Engine

    I performed my 1st oil change today. Easy. Brand new car so everything was clean! I was going to take it Ford but they couldn't get me in for 10 days. No quick lane here in Aberdeen SD. I was thinking all those bolts/screws/plastic push things were going to be a pain so Ford could do it...
  6. Change of fortune

    I was new this year. Picked up my BS one month ago and now I'm going to have to say good bye to this forum. My wife had her (L) hip replaced and finds it much easier to get in/out of the BS than her car. Lots of vehicles changing hands soon. My new BS goes to her. Her Cherokee goes to our...
  7. Bronco dash cam

    I thought about having the factory put a front and rear dash cam when I ordered. I didn’t. I’ve never had a time or incident where that would have helped me. I didn’t want to spend the money on the ā€œchanceā€ it might do me good. But I then see all the dashcam vids on YouTube that show dumbass...

    What about durability? I’d I go thru a ā€˜touch’ car wash do I need to worry?
  9. Sync 3

    I didn't know that was possible! I'll start looking now!
  10. Sync 3

    I'm coming from a 2012 F150 work truck with no frills. I installed a magbak holder in the CD slot. I used wireless ear buds to take phone calls, listen to books on tape, listen to music. I have a radar detector app on my phone as well as Waze and google maps. The cigarette lighter was...

  12. Craigslist South Dakota

    I'm on the look out for some winter wheels and tires since mine are more for Summer. There are some posted in the SD Craigslist from someone in MN. The title says Bronco Sport but they have 6-lug wheels. Six lug is a full sized Bronco right? vic
  13. I just placed an order...

    On the way out of town I stopped for a couple 6am pics. My son says ā€˜ya know dad, I kinda like the blue one better’. So I said ā€˜good to know you won’t be asking to drive the red one then’. Ha! We’ll see…
  14. I just placed an order...

    And its here! Actually it hit the Ford dealership yesterday. I was in Chicago when they called me to let me know but what could I do. I came back today but not while they were open and nobody was willing to stay or come in when I got there to do paperwork. Driving back from the airport my...
  15. 2023 Ford Escape Active (?)

    Wow, I am all over the place! This Sport better show up in the next couple weeks or...who knows. I drove home to see my mother today. Driving thru a small town I saw a Maverick sitting at the Ford dealer. The way back I pulled over to look at it. The bed is cute and tiny but not too tiny...
  16. 2023 Ford Escape Active (?)

    All right, my Sport is in Chicago waiting to catch another train to Minneapolis. I told the Ford guy I'll be in Chicago in 2 days so Maybe I can just pick it up and drive it home. No dice. He told me these cars can only drive slow until they prep the car then they fix that. Never knew that...
  17. 2023 Ford Escape Active (?)

    Thanks for not beating me up too much about the tranny knob! I'll have to get used to it because the dealer says it'll be here in 2 weeks.
  18. 2023 Ford Escape Active (?)

    Just came back from Maryland for soccer. Our rental car was the above named car. I believe it was actually brand new, like I was first to drive it. Got to the soccer fields and there was a hot plastic smell inside and out. It was an ā€˜Active’, maybe a trim level? This thing had lots more...

  20. Ordered my BS OBX 2/03/23. Waiting sucks.

    This isn't my thread but I wanted to update you about the 'Waiting Sucks'. Today Ford says the Bronco Sport is built (4-16-23) and is awaiting shipment. It could take a few days to a week. I don't want to jinx myself but things seem to be moving ahead hopefully for everybody! vic
