  1. Ford QC gone down hill...

    This presupposes it was “uphill” at some point. I’ve owned many Ford products ranging in years from 1986 to now 2024. Same BS. My Bronco has areas with poor paint coverage, debris in the paint, areas where the metal had contaminants or poor finish, but was painted anyway. Some are in discrete...
  2. CR ranks Bronco @ 46/100 on Lowest Ranked Cars list

    I have never owned a truck or SUV before the Bronco, and have driven very few. I find it’s on road manners completely acceptable. I don’t think I’d go to autocross with it, but it doesn’t feel like it’s going to flip over on spirited turns
  3. Are You Using Seat Covers?

    I can’t explain it either haha. But I’ve had them in Georgia and Arizona without issue
  4. Are You Using Seat Covers?

    I can’t recall the company but someone makes sheep skin covers for car seats. I’ve used them for all my cars going back 20-some years. They really keep you cool and protect the seat. Don’t have them yet for the Bronco but soon enough.
  5. Dirty Dog headliner just arrived

    Any pics of it installed?
  6. Touch Up Paint?

    +1 for dealer paints. They are more money but you know they’re the right color, albeit a bit thick. Applicators are garbage (but that’s the same for all touch ups).
  7. Carplay Problem - No Volume

    I also have this problem. A disconnect/reconnect of the phone to car play fixes it. But it is rather annoying
  8. 2024 Badlands - to SAS or Not

    24 BL non sas owner here. A “too harsh” ride is subjective. I came from a civic Si which was incredibly stiff, so the Bronco feels like a much smoother ride to me. You can always buy other shocks if the ride is not to your liking. With respect to the differences, in addition to your mentions...
  9. What Do You Use as a Protectant on Your Hard Top?

    This. Automotive soap is generally mild and it doesn’t seem to need any further care than this.
  10. Armorlite Flooring for the Bronco - installed video

    Not 100% sure but I think the factory washout floor also has some type of fiber backing material as well.
  11. Armorlite Flooring for the Bronco - installed video

    Looks like the fit is good. He says in the video the factory washout floor “is garbage” but lists no actual complaints. I wonder what issues there are with it and how this product is superior to the factory vinyl flooring.
  12. Help with Badlands/Wildtrak Build

    there are some interior changes. I believe rear cup holders and the dash stitching. As for mechanical, as stated earlier the upgraded steering rack is a pretty big plus. I can’t recall whether the 23 badlands had bilstein shocks on non sas models. i know my 24 BL has a steel rear bumper, not...
  13. Rules are rules

    My wife refers to them as the “Bronco Squirt”
  14. Classic Bronco instrument cluster

    The analog gauge is such a waste of space. Driving with my left hand on the top of the wheel blocks it from my view anyway. I just can’t understand what thinking was putting both a digital and analog one
  15. Window Seal Rubber -Raised Gap

    24 badlands. I have it too. Figured it was just like that.
  16. Production Stuck Check-In - Mod top issue?

    Built -> shipped: 24 hours Shipped -> rail yard (in AZ): 11 days Rail yard -> dealer: 3 days (arrived on a weekend) Dealer to me -> 24 hours
  17. Change Driveline Fluids Early!

    I know there is a lot of criticism surrounding wet belt for the oil pump. Have there been any actual failures observed?
  18. Debating on 2.3 vs 2.7 engine?

    I went with the 2.7. The 2.3 is a fine engine and gearing makes it move this massive brick quite well. My only real criticism of it is that it doesn't have port injection, so the valves and intakes will get foul after a while (purportedly this is going to change).
  19. Passenger side window wind noise is louder than driver side

    I had this happen yesterday but on the driver rear driver side. For some reason my window got out of alignment. If you were to open the door, it wouldn’t go down that bit it does. Instead it was just always a little below the seal, even at full up. Doing a window reset fixed it.
  20. Production Stuck Check-In - Mod top issue?

    I definitely feel this. My family has owned many, many Ford products, all lemons. Two mustangs, a mercury Capri, a jaguar X type, and others. They were all literal junk. After my wife bought a new mustang I felt like the Ford quality had improved from my 80s and 90s models and so went for the...
