BFG's seem to be hit or miss, particularly on balancing issues. I've had great experience with Yokohama Geolandr's and Toyo Open Country A/Ts. Pay attention to the Load Range rating, the stock tires are "C" load range, many replacements are "E" range, a much heavier tire that will be more...

No coat hook on the "B" pillar for my dry cleaning! And after 3 years the Stereo sucks even worse than on day 1.

It will live again. Will make its way to some shop in Mexico that will put it back together with some ughhh.., re-purposed parts and will be a mule truck for some Cartel.

The 2.3 is adequate, the 2.7 is a gem. Abundant torque right off idle and once warmed up, almost silent and very smooth in operation. The 10-speed is well matched and in my aet '23, shifts perfectly with no gear hunting. If you're craving more "umph" than the Jeep, I'd say springing for the...

Depending on the cost, the OEM set up may be worth it. It's well integrated into the vehicle and the wiring is plug and play. And if properly configured, it will automatically active the trailer tow mode and check the trailer lighting for you in the display. Mine came from the factory and...

I've had General's on a couple of cars now and gotten good life and service out of them. Now that they're owned by Continental, I believe they're building better products than their old days. Looking at them for my BB Sas when the GY's expire

My '23 in Hot Pepper Red is garaged nightly so maybe not a fair comparison. But it looks like new 3 years and the Florida sun later with just a hand wash every 60 days or so and a quick coat of Mother's liquid wax. The Ford paint is thin as a politicians promise but has held up better than I...

The 3.5 in the MDX is a pretty sedate engine, the same as is in a Honda Odyssey minivan. It's quiet, smooth, reliable and and exciting as watching paint dry. I do miss the Hemi that was in the Jeep but not the 14 mpg it delivered. The MDX will move, but you've gotta explore the upper range of...

We have an MDX. It followed a Grand Cherokee and ML500. The MDX is not an exciting car to drive. What it is however is absolutely painless to own. No problems outside of a flat tire. 5 years in it’s on the original battery and has only required routine maintenance. It’s like a major...

Same here. Moved from a 2dr to a 4dr Soft Top to avoid the delays and cracking issue. Love it year round, but I'm in Florida. Maybe I'd feel differently if I lived in Buffalo. It's loud on the interstate for sure but I knew that going in. By the way, while loud, my soft top does not leak a...

The AudioControl D4-800 will do everything you want it to in one box. Crutchfield has it for $699 right now.

Set up an account on Ford.com, they send out inside offere frequesntly. Last month they had an additional $2500 off on Super Duty's and Expeditions and $750 off everything else. That's over and above whatever you can negotiate with the dealer.

Interesting the difference in dealeshops. I had a '23 Cadillac XTS that came with black wheels. The coating started shipping off, the selling dealer told me normal wear and tear, nothing we can do. It'd kept getting worse. I'd relocated and was getting the car serviced at a smaller Cadillac...

Big mistake. This adds ZERO value to an already overpriced vehicle. Ford missed the boat, Stroppe should have been a 2-dr Raptor to pay homage to the name. Instead they pulled out the old GM book and added stripes and paint then called it a day.

That Hood Insulation Pad has my name written all over it! Also, how about developing an integrated coat hook for the B pillar on 4 doors? And while the CAD designer is at it, a set of lower door panels that will accommodate a 6 1/2 in speaker with an acoustically transparent grill to allow...

Nothing I didn't expect. Road noise, particularly wind at highway speed. But mine's a soft top and I expected it plus the Bronco has the aerodynamics of a barn. So nothing unexpected. Mine's a 4-door, but has no coat hook on the B pillar to hang a jacket or dry cleaning. The only other ting...

The threat to travel for a better deal works well. A few years ago we were looking at a new Acura MDX for my wife. Our local area has one Acura dealer with the next ones being 100 miles awwy east or west. And those are smaller markets with just one Acura dealer each. Atlanta is 5 hours away...

It depends on how you calculate resale value. In pure numbers, no. a '21 if anything might be a bit less valuable due to less equipment than later years and some of the issues the first Bronco's off the line experienced. But, if you own a '21 and avoided the insane mark-ups some dealers were...

Won't be long before used Bronco's get cheap enough to start seeing some engine swaps. But not to a Coyote, that engine is too big and too expensive to drop into a Bronco. I'd suggest a crate Windsor, wither 302 or 351, ATK will sell you a new 300 HP 302 with FiTech EFI for 6 grand or you can...
