That was done just over a year ago.

Asking here for my wife’s Sport since this group is far more knowledgeable about vehicles in my opinion than the Sport forum. Should there be any loss whatsoever of coolant? Max to just below minimum little over a year. I’m thinking minor leak somewhere. Did find a sticky residue while changing...

Cool. But in the videos last words. Can’t wait to see what else it can do. That’s the part corporate America is keeping you out of the loop.

Griots 3in1 ceramic spray wax. And clean wiper blades every now and then. I will add. White out is a real condition. It does rain heavy enough here in FL where it would be safer to get off the road and wait or take a slower road.

I prefer some items such as groceries in the AC. Bronco does offer a 4 door.

Ranger is better bang for the buck. But if you carry people and items and want all out of the weather. The Bronco is better. Pick ups kind of suck for travel with people and luggage.

Matt’s Off Road Recovery on YouTube. Still love watching the off-roading on every new video! Keyboard offroading is where it’s at.

Today’s manufacturers engineer it to be most profitable and in Fords case, last somewhere between 3yr/36k most people’s typical average trade in date.

I can agree with this to a point. I work in electronics. Either I can measure a problem and trace it. Or go off past history report/saved metrics of device and system. Then make an educated guess. But I don’t get 200/hr and just say oops. Must not have been it. Getting a little off topic...

You would be splitting difference with dealer if trading. At least here in FL. You save sales tax on the trade value. Roughly 3k here.

Was looking myself as I received the 25% off too. Changing fluid soon. Seems like a good time to swap it.

Aware of that. But to claim you fixed it then you must have measured it. Can’t claim fixed just because it went away staring at car. You pull a circuit and draw goes away or not. Or if it’s not happening while testing you can’t claim fixed.

I don’t understand how a tech can think they had it fixed. You either measured excessive draw and found the culprit or didn’t measure excessive draw. Invest in a meter and start testing. Side note. I still have original 22 battery in my Badlands. 22k miles. I can tell it goes low just by how...

I’ve lost left ch front/rear a few times in the past. Power on off corrects it. I only use CarPlay. Switch to the radio when it happens. If all works fine and going back to CarPlay is not. It might be CarPlay related. If all is fine when going back to CarPlay, it might just be the switching of...

It’s a Bronco and only a Bronco. That other thing my wife drives is a Sport. You can call that a crossover/suv all days long.
