I've looked at a couple of these in person. The biggest problem is the handle. It sticks out too far. Why I have no idea, it doesn't need to. Remove it and you remove much of the interference. I'll probably buy one then make my own handle.

I thought it was from the date the vehicle was delivered. So for me it would be April 2023. I get mixed information from Granger website. The FYI says the clock starts ticking when the Bronco is delivered, the original in-service date and mileage, April 2023 for me. But somewhere else they...

Poor planning? Their test mule didn't have a tailgate table.

Whose Magsafe charger did you use? It's the first one I've seen that has a USB C connector instead of a cable.

I tried synthetic clay on my Subaru, wasn't happy. I can't remember why as that was about four years ago. But then many people seem to like it as it's still on the market, so I may have done something wrong. It does behave differentlly than a clay bar.

I think it's interesting that you ordered in 2025 yet recieved a Bronco made in October 2023. Makes me wonder where it was all that time.

I did a Google search for "auto detailing supplies Phoenix" and got a number of hits. One supplies the company that did my ceramic coat. Prices are cheaper than auto parts stores.

Just never use upholstery foam. It emitts corrosive gasses. I learned about these people a few weeks ago. I think I'm going to give them a try. Their pricing seems reasonable, especially when you consider they're shipping from the UK...

Sometimes we seem to get posts about sales on the last day of the sale, or the day after it ended.

I'm confused. The post says Father's Day, but the dates on the poster are for the week before Father's Day.

I'd like to know how warm the inside of the compartment gets with the factory muffler, 2.3L engine. Also how well is the thermal shield DV8 includes is holding up.

I bought the regular Ford flaps. They match the contour of the flares better and they're cheap. Haven't installed them yet.

They shouldn't be that difficult to remove if someone is patient and uses a heat gun on low. You'll need Goo Gone and some isopropyl alcohol 70% to do the final cleanup. Use microfiber towels. You might have luck using dental floss or fishing line to cut the foam adhesive that's holding the...

Look through the threads for retrofitting the factory upfitter switches. Someone talks about doing the modification. I think there are pictures.

My Badlands is Cactus Grey. A few weeks after delivery, I removed the covers above the windshield so I could install a roof rack. That was three years ago. I just compared the covers to my Bronco. I couldn't tell the difference. My Bronco has been parked in the Phoenix sun for three years. The...
