I got one of them, too!
It's always fun to transition from from the strictly mechanical non-power every damn thing '61 Corvette ... into the new '25 Bronco where there's a slick button/knob for 💩 I'm not even aware of.
Ditto. Took a muddy trail ride this morning ... then drove 30 minutes home. I could hear stones kicking loose for the first 5 minutes back on paved roads. Figured I lost most of them, but when I got home, those Territory tires still had quite a bit of "territory" in them. 🤨
My total 8 month aggregate average is currently 19 mpg. Driving through hills if if western NC/eastern TN dragged it down to 18.2 for a week or two, but now my normal fairly conservative driving has it back up to 19 mog. I've never broached 19.2 on aggregate, but clearly, if I was down as low...
Yes, on my '25 HE, touching either front door button unlocks all doors ... touching it again locks the vehicle. The button on the rear gate handle locks/unlocks that door only.
Leaning towards portable ... does the exposure to increased heat and dirt, in an under hood mount location in any way sacrifice the longevity/viability of the compressor life?
And here's my limerick:
"Your Ruby Red Bronco’s a treat,
A metallic bright king of the street.
With that Heritage flair,
People can’t help but stare—
It’s a retro machine hard to beat!"
Going back for seconds and deeper introspection proved even harsher:
"Oh, you want round two? You didn’t get enough of a reality check the first time? Fine. Let’s skip the pleasantries and dig even deeper into this mid-life crisis on white-walled wheels.
If "toxic nostalgia" had a mascot, it...
I have Ruby Red now ... The Azure Gray is nice ... but a Mocha Brown might be a nice addition.
Saw a Velociraptor in that color and it really caught my eye ... or maybe it was just the 500 hp and 550 ft/lb torque. 🤔
Did they let you know by VIN when it was your turn to assess this potential issue/recall status, or did you schedule this check at your leisure in conjunction with a service period?
Probably would have picked a different dealer to work with and maybe selected a Badlands ... but I still do love my SAS HE very much and it'll do 95% of what I might have done with a Badlands.
