The Bronco I have a deposit on is a basic base Sas that's 7k off. I realize there's not a ton of margin on something like that, but some lightly optioned Badlands are on the cusp of being competitive on price.

Also, rock climbing season is almost here and I won't look cool at the trailhead in a Prius.
Base Sasquatch is the cheat code. Make it two door and it’s even more fun. Had mine since end of may and I’ve got over 6k miles on it. I ordered a 4 door back in 2022 and nothing ever came from it. It’s well worth the wait for your 2025. Mine came out to around $47K from $52k sticker price after fords discounts.

No idea, but I figure it can't hurt! A old gear head buddy of mine said to try it. Then several people on here mentioned it as an old RV storage trick. @Brian_B said he just ended up with rodents that smelled spring time fresh...and peanut shells in his air cleaner box. I might try some clove oil in some prominent spots ...unless some can tell me why that's a bad idea?...eats paint..... corrosive to aluminum.....
One rodent deterrent I have found to be effective is to place used cat litter under the vehicle (if you have a cat or know someone with a cat). Apparently rodents know that smell and will usually steer clear. That is better than hosting rodents.

Did someone say recalls?

I'll trade you a Low Pressure Fuel Pump for a Engine Valve Inspection. And, I would have tied you at 8, but my rear camera software got resolved by an OTA.

Wonder if the harness recall parts list and repair procedure is the same as the official PDF recall repair doc which came out earlier for the Raptor (which had detailed pictures from a non-Raptor Bronco)?

Curious because I removed the coolant reservoir and did the inspection and all wiring looked very good but I could see the potential pinch/chafe areas beneath both hood hinges as well as along a metal seam beneath the coolant reservoir that Ford’s concerned about.

It’s very similar, but not exactly the same.

I added it to the first post

For those who may not have re-visited the recently updated first post on this thread and may not be aware, as of yesterday the 31st of August, repairs under this recall can now be scheduled for all Broncos. Thanks to OP for updating post #1 with repair details of non-Raptors as well as Raptors, as they are a little different.
