'23 Sasquatch V6 4dr., I keep mine at 40 cold all around, ride is fine, gas mileage in the high 18's on average and the stock Territory MT's are wearing beautifully despite never rotating them (27k miles) Keep in mind air pressure determines load capacity, if you're packed up with a full load...

My VW Rabbit started drinking oil, so much that I kept 2 quarts with me to add at every fuel stop. The Rabbit only held 4 qts. so 2 quarts was half the crankcase. No smoke visible and no external leaks. Turned out to be the valve guide seals were defective and oil was getting sucked into the...

I was thinking that same thing. He asked the same question about “street legal” at least half a dozen times. Jay absolutely knows what a concept vehicle is, either he’s lost a few steps or he’s trying to buy it from Ford to use on the road

Wow. I have a '23 4 dr. Soft top. Never leaks a drop on the road or during a wash. I'd bet a warped roof panel or similar given they replaced the header seal.

I've not made any changes to my Bronco brakes and haven't found any reason to in 3 years and 30k. But I put PowerStop pads and Rotors on my '16 Focus ST and am not impressed. No change n braking and the pulsating from the rotors started in less than 10k miles. The rotors are made in China and...

Put me down as ""I'll believe it when I see it". GM is notorious for floating lofty plans out there and then not delivering at all or delivering a half-baked product that then needs 5 years of development to become competitive in the market. If this thing gets to market in '29, Bronco will be...

Huh? Allowed? As in given permission?

Definitely running hard against strong headwinds will have an impact on oil consumption, both from the increased temperatures that thins the oil a bit more as well as the constant boost raising pressures in the cylinders and increasing blow-by a small amount. If consumption returns to normal in...

Open carry for the W!

I love a manual as much as the next enthusiast, but the smooth and torquey 2.7L and efficient 10-speed won the day for me. I'd rather salt away some money for an old Miata or Boxster that rewards the manual experience than the Bronco where I see it being as much of a hindrance as an attribute...

'23 Big Bend 4dr. w/Sasquatch and the V6. I couldn't ask for more. No issues in 39 months and 30k miles. Drives great, strong power and about 19 mpg in mixed driving. Biggest complaint is the sound system is pathetic. Interface is fine, I like the Navigation linked to my mobile but sound...

Wow. That's pretty disappointing. Definitely file a warranty claim with Ford. My '23 Big Bend has pretty decent panel alignment although the gaps are a bit wider than they could be. The paint however is thin and chips very easily. Shines up decently however. Mass production doesn't get you...

Hard ro believe that got out of the factory like that. Are you the first owner? Positive it wasn't hit before you had it? If you bought it new you may have a case but I'll bet the dealer claims its "too late". Check the fender bolts under the hood for witness marks from a wrench having been...

it’ll be fine. Just check the level to be sure you’re not low if you haven’t had to add any so far.
