I have a Badlands. One touch works up or down, NP.
I have a Badlands, as well. Wonderful. Did not get the 360 but, does have the lane departure. I wish I could figure out how to get ForScan to work, I have the cable. I wonder if the computer has the stuff in it for GPS and the ForScan can bring it up. Any ideas/

I guess my not too clearly stated gist was rear back up sensor etc could possibly add about $200-300 to the sticker price since blind spot and cross traffic warnings are there and I would not not buy because of a couple hundred bucks more on the sticker and venture to guess 2 or 300 dollars more isn’t going to scare away someone already looking to spend $30,000 plus on any vehicle. Regardless, I’m pleased with the level of options on what is basically a base Big Bend.

, the good old and dreaded “if equipped”
Maybe that’s the answer.
Big Bend NO Big Bend package.
I guess I’ll just have to suffer with holding that button for two seconds. First world problems.:)
I have the Big Bend with Big Bend package. I too have to suffer button holdaage.

Kind of stupid really - my Golf7, which cost $18k cdn less money, had auto up and down on all switches. It was also better built by a significant margin...

"suffer button holdage"
LOL come on really?
You guys are killing this old fart.
I came up with manual window cranks and wing vents.
You poor thing... PmsL.
The other pamper me silly option I saw come online was heated seats.

Do you have any idea the toll that finger strains are taking on BSport owners? A little compassion please….. these people have to hold this button roughly 4 SECONDS! They’re fingers are hurting!!!!!

Suffering button holdage is a serious problem.

It is also possible that sarcasm is tricky :)

Yeah, I miss the old cars as well. Kind of wish I could find a Scout II that wasn't a rotted out hulk and waste of resources (or an old Saab 99 - another childhood car I loved). More than either, I would like to find a good condition 1965 Land Rover Defender. What A/C? Open the flaps and drive faster.

Button holdage is not a made up thing. My health insurance plan won’t cover “button holdage” injuries.
It’s all in jest.
just wondered why with all of the what I think were extra effort conveniences no “one touch up” to complement the one touch down feature. Just think of all those 2 second time increments that go wasted. I’m just happy not having to hold that damn button for 2 seconds for the window to go down. And we all laughed and laughed.

But neither of you had to walk up hill BOTH ways in the snow, barefoot with your brother on your back.
hahaha

And I too miss the wing windows from older cars.

I've looked and looked for any old 4x4 pick up or any Bronco II type vehicle.
All I find is frame off already fully restored for big bucks or hack job half azz work or rust buckets that need full frame off work.
Then I worry about scorsing old parts and the US mint prices...
I most want a pre emissions 4x4 pick up that's yellow so I can rebadge it to
"TONKA", if ya follow my drift

I do. When my parents drove a Scout II, I had a bright yellow Tonka Mighty Dump that was so strong it survived being run over by said Scout. The Scout is long gone, but I still have the dump truck. Ahh the good old days: when toys were made of metal and had sharp corners.

Up hill, both ways, cardboard shoes, winter one way, summer the other so you never knew what to wear (supposing you had an option - our cardboard box wasn’t well kitted)… ??
