  1. FordPass app vehicle location issue

    Same here. I spent too long on Google trying to figure it out. Obviously a defect.
  2. Bronco Market Share down to 25%, while Jeep is 40% and 4Runner 35%

    I bought a new TRD Off-road 4Runner a couple months ago at $2.5k below sticker after seeing the more complicated direction Toyota is headed with the Tacoma. I’m also guessing the next gen won’t be built in Japan. The 4Runner is super satisfying as far as build quality and holds more cargo, but...
  3. BASE SQUATCH first time in the snow using 4A.

    Unless the snow is over 10 inches or so I use 4A exclusively. We get a lot of snow and my Basesquatch has done fantastic. The other advantage is 4A basically is Subaru mode for my wife and daughter. No worries if the pavement is dry in between wet and snowy patches. (We have a Subaru...
  4. I got Bucked!

    My wife had a weird horse duck left on our Basesquatch. She was super confused until I explained, but she was also surprisingly happy about the occurrence. Anything that makes my wife smile, I support.
  5. Why not have a solid top?

    I just bought a 2024 4Runner before Toyota killed the V6. Still have my Bronco. The fixed top on the 4Runner is more my style for sure due to the climate I live in and my highway use, but I don’t think the Bronco should ever have a fixed top. Most of the point of a Bronco is being able to remove...
  6. Build & Price: Base Model dropped for 2024, lowest model now starts at $39,130

    I love my ultra rare 2023 Basesquatch! I should have ordered the mod bumper, but I wanted it built. Only took 13 months. Sad to see the base is discontinued.
  7. Bronco RTR ROVR // Latest Vehicle Package from RTR Vehicles

    I am still processing what I am seeing. Is this for lunar use or will it work down here where the oxygen is? The roof rack looks sweet. And I miss the A51 color.
  8. Ford Releases 7 Pin Tow Wiring for Factory Installation

    I had this 7/4 pin installed by my local dealer on my 2023 basesquatch. Ordered the harness online with the $120 install option. Took a few weeks to get on the schedule, but now the harness is installed with a Rough Country receiver that I put on the night before. Install looks really clean. The...
  9. Interest in fixed top with a moon roof option?

    I’d take a fixed roof if it was noticeably quieter on highway. I currently have a MIC hardtop. I’ve had the front three panels off a few times and it’s fun, but I’d prefer a fixed top. I never plan to remove the doors, which is probably the better experience. I’m weird as I’d drive a 4Runner...
  10. Ford Releases 7 Pin Tow Wiring for Factory Installation

    I ordered this with the install. Hopefully my less than helpful dealership doesn’t try to add a zero to the $120 install price. They wanted to charge close to $1k for labor when my brother ordered the original 4 pin kit. Having a 4/7 pin with a hitch would be really nice. My Maverick’s tow...
  11. Yellowstone and Grand Teton with a popup camper.

    Since most of the area is national park and heavily trafficked, there isn’t much dispersed camping nearby, particularly closer to Grand Teton. Best bet is in Island Park, ID about 25 miles from West Yellowstone. Maybe even closer to the west entrance on the far side of Hebgen Lake or near...
  12. 2024 Tacoma - Specs, Release, Photos ⚠️ Now With Hybrid 🔋

    I put a deposit down several months ago to get in line for a 2024 TRD Off-road with the long bed. Fortunately my Toyota dealer is way more above board than than the ripoff Ford dealers around my area. I’m liking the new Tacoma updates. Also I’m limiting myself to only owning one Ford at a time...
  13. Utah Sold: 2022 Bronco Base 4-dr Hardtop

    Like new condition 2022 Area 51 2.3L auto four-door hardtop base model with aux switches, full tint, Falken Wildpeak AT3 tires and OEM Bronco dark gray alloy wheels. Clean title. Currently 4,600 miles. Asking $46,900. Located in Ogden, Utah area. Selling only because I have another Bronco.
  14. Ford not honoring price protection

    Ford will tell you the price is set by the dealer. I called several times. I bought two Broncos. On the 2022, the dealership said they didn’t participate in price protection. Take it or leave it. I bought anyway as otherwise the deal was decent. On my 2023, with a different dealer Ford sent me...
  15. Bronco or Tacoma?!?!

    I have two Broncos. The Bronco is awesome and a much updated drive train compared to the current Tacoma. Really a lot of fun. With that said, my Basesquatch needed a new transmission at 157 miles and still isn’t right. Super frustrating. I now have a deposit on a 2024 TRD Off Road Tacoma. I...
  16. New BaseSquatch Dies at 157 Miles - Needs New Auto Transmission

    Quick update. Now waiting for a new transmission to ship via freight for the Basesquatch. Dealership was planning to just replace the valve body and a solenoid, but found metal shavings. Ford authorized the new transmission. As long as install is competent, I would think it should be good. I am...
  17. Consumer Reports: Ford Bronco is Most Satisfying Midsize Two-Row SUV to Own

    I have two Broncos. My Basesquatch needs a new transmission at 157 miles. Not so satisfied there, but it’s the luck of the draw I suppose. Otherwise the Bronco is a lot of fun and very capable. I do wonder about the correlation between waiting so long and owning a still relatively hard to buy...
  18. New BaseSquatch Dies at 157 Miles - Needs New Auto Transmission

    Yesterday I learned my Basesquatch has multiple codes, however only P0756 is persistent after the others are cleared. Apparently the indication is the auto transmission is stuck in third gear and the clutch is not engaging. Ford asked them to do an accelerated valve body break in, however the...
  19. New BaseSquatch Dies at 157 Miles - Needs New Auto Transmission

    Another day... another tow. Picked up from the dealership on Saturday, who said everything checked out. No issues. Possible sticking torque converter solenoid from being new. Told me to take it on a road trip to run it in. (Advice I'm glad I did not listen to.) We did have an enjoyable drive in...
  20. New BaseSquatch Dies at 157 Miles - Needs New Auto Transmission

    I've long thought of what you describe as the wolf phenomenon. If sitting around the prehistoric campfire thousands of years ago, a wolf rushed in from the woods and dragged your child off for dinner, you would naturally be terrified of wolves. Now if a wolf somewhere in the world does the...
