  1. Rear side window leaks

    After posting this I saw ford is recalling for quarter windows that will fall out. Glad I beat the rush on that one! Mine was not included in the bin range but I know I didn’t have 100% adhesion to the frame. I had about a 4” section on each window that was visibly loose from the top. hope...
  2. Rear side window leaks

    took my 2dr in for a couple warrranty items I have been sitting on until it was worth the trip. One of the items was leaking rear side glass. I didn’t find it until 9 months into ownership since it normally is parked inside and I don’t sit in the back. Once found I also noticed it seems the...
  3. Help, damaged the hardtop. How to repair these scratches / gouges?

    Not much you can do. The top is textured so sanding will make a big area with different texture. So even more noticeable. i Suggest to live with it. Only other choice is sand the whole top to make it uniform. And then paint it because the sand marks will look terrible.
  4. A good TPMS problem

    Not sure if this is by design or by mistake but I’m not complaining. Maybe I’m just passively asking if it is normal or not. I put take offs on my base two door. They do not have TPMS sensors in them. So I had a light and had to hit the OK button at every start to acknowledge the TPMS...
  5. Still plays with matchbox

    So when I was a kid I played a lot with matchbox cars. My parents had a new chimney put in the house. I played on the dirt piles from the construction wearing out a certain 69 charger and Plymouth fury sedan. Fast forward 40 years and I still can’t stop myself from getting my “matchbox”...
  6. Best Mode for Highway MPG

    My rural ohio daily running around comes out to 24 or so in the summer months. Well with the factory base 30” tires. The 32s drop about 1 mpg off the daily running around.
  7. DIY solution! Locking my key inside Bronco when I run or bike

    Gucci If your doors are locked then one would need to break into the vehicle. Alarms will be sounding. I have not experimented with mine but I’d hope the truck won’t start until the panic button was used to stop the alarm. I diubt anyone breaking in is going to hunt for a key while an alarm...
  8. DIY solution! Locking my key inside Bronco when I run or bike

    This is why I got the key pad. Everything is locked. When I’m biking or at beach or any place I don’t want pockets full of crap everything is Locked up inside.
  9. Father daughter dinosaurs or bust road trip

    We made it home! Due to the two day sick delay in thermoplis I opted to drive home instead of the planned mt Rushmore and bad lands return to home detour. Have to hit those next time. I can’t say the bronco seats are great. But they must be pretty damn good because I drove straight thru from...
  10. Father daughter dinosaurs or bust road trip

    Things went sideways real fast. After a chilly wet night in a tent in Yellowstone it seems my daughter caught a stomach bug. Drive to Thermopolis was fine and so was dinner but The night before the trips main attraction she vomited all night. Had to cancel our planned fissile dig! We still...
  11. Best Mode for Highway MPG

    Single best thing for mpg. Slow down. Works great in any car. Especially a high riding brick. I saw about 2 mpg loss for every 5mph I went above 70. 70 was about 24 mpg 75 about 22.5 80-85 about 18-19.5 this was all during a one way drive from ohio to Idaho using 87 octane. Base 2.3 7spd...
  12. $46,500 for base+sasquatch, 2.3 liter, manual

    Holy cow. These prices are nuts for base models. I’ll sell you my base 7sp with black diamond wheels for 39999!
  13. 16 or 17 inch wheels, looking for wisdom.

    75 series tires are going to mostly be E rated. Those will be better for puncture resistance but they will ride like rocks. So that is a big negative for the 16s. Unless you will be doing a lot off off roaring where puncture protection is a high priority. The 17“ wheels will give much more...
  14. Father daughter dinosaurs or bust road trip

    Back on the road. Didn’t want to leave ID but have to head to more sights. I’ll spare Yellowstone pics. Many more people have taken many more pictures way better than I could. Also. We took hundreds driving the north rim and I couldn’t possibly pic just a few to share. after leaving...
  15. Father daughter dinosaurs or bust road trip

    Since this is more of a road trip journal here are some more ID pics. Man that state is beautiful. And I didn’t see a single potato farm. Hit lake pend for some sight seeing on a small uninhabited island And some boating lessons. after A day on the beach we hit the water again for an...
  16. Father daughter dinosaurs or bust road trip

    Thanks for the tip. I did look into that one but the 16 year old minimum age was a non starter. We are going to the Wyoming dinosaur center in Thermopiles WY and doing a one day dig. hoping to hit the near by off road park while there as bonus for me.
  17. Father daughter dinosaurs or bust road trip

    Today I awoke to see I had a new bronco model. It was a base. Then I put black diamond wheels/tires on it. This must have turned it into a retro model judging by the script font. No bronco fun today. Went to a local beach on a lake to chill out and play in sand. And then did some...
  18. Father daughter dinosaurs or bust road trip

    After some more silly pics to send to mom we headed down. Had to stop and check out the bear grass flowers. we did find some legit off road trails cut in off the fire road. Did a 26 deg climb with loose terrain as easily as a minivan climbs a mall speed bump (sorry no pics of that fun). I was...
  19. Father daughter dinosaurs or bust road trip

    Made it to ID. A near 35 hours in when we arrived at a good friends house in sand point. yesterday with the help of that friend we hit some fire roads and found snow. A fight followed and my child’s faith in her dad restored and snow angles. More like ice angels. e Enough kid pics. Here...
  20. Father daughter dinosaurs or bust road trip

    Glacier was a bit of a bust since sun road was not open yet. The main point of glacier was to have a snow ball fight in June. I got a fail for this day. Still did a little hiking and saw some cool water falls. Deciding to get an early start to Idaho. These sights put a smile back on my...
