    The Outer Banks comes standard that way already
  2. Color-Matched Hardtop 2025 Bronco Spotted in the Wild

    My wife got a Carbonized Grey Bronco Sport and the wheels are in the same color-It looks sharp that way lol
  3. Bronco August 2024 Sales & Production: 10,132 Sold / 16,682 Produced

    Ford doesn't fleet dump any more...and I doubt that Broncos will be on the radars of rental car fleets. The Ranger is still spooling up and Ford would rather sell less with higher end models then dump on the market with cheaper models
  4. The Scout Reveal is Coming!

    The Jeep Compass are made in Mexico and the Renegade (no longer sold) was made in Italy.
  5. The Scout Reveal is Coming!

    Plans mean almost nothing if the market shifts...just look at Ford's "plans" for their 3 row EV... Oakville was supposed to build it and now they are retooling to build Super Duties (partly a shot across the UAW's bow after what happened last contract) and the 3 row is cancelled (which from...
  6. Bronco August 2024 Sales & Production: 10,132 Sold / 16,682 Produced

    Building up dealership stock-as long as they turn (sell) in 60 or so days, its not an issue.
  7. The Scout Reveal is Coming!

    But Toyota is suffering in the reliability front with new engines. Part of the reason they where so good was they just kept upgrading the older engines they had. They had the bugs worked out and with the new engines they've come out with they've had serious issues.
  8. The Scout Reveal is Coming!

    The Amarok is a Ford Ranger. Ford and VW have an agreement where they make products for one another-the Explorer EV and Puma are an ID.4 and some of the smaller vans in the EU are now VW products. VW can’t sell the Amarok in the USA as part of this agreement The Scout will be a bespoke EV...
  9. The Scout Reveal is Coming!

    Part of the issue is people expecting EVs to act the same way as an ICE. For better then 50% of people who travel to work every day and can charge at home, an EV makes sense. Yes, you might have issues with a very long road trip, but the charging situation is getting better as time goes on. I...
  10. MY25 Updates?

    Nope-the Transmission 10R has the hybrid system built into it. See the F-150 Hybrid for example. Its not a eCVT/Atkinson cycle hybrid like the Maverick or Escape. With that said, nor will you see a huge improvement in MPGs, if anything a 2.3L Ecoboost Hybrid would be roughly the equivalent to...
  11. The Scout Reveal is Coming!

    Hydrogen is deader then EVs. EV adaption rates are just slowing down to various factors and far from dead. Just not switching as fast automakers thought they where going by the data from 2020-2022.
  12. Do you use wheel locks?

    On the flip side, replacing the stock lug nuts will take care of the terrible 2 piece design they come with.
  13. 2.3 500k mile tear down conventional vs synthetic and failed parts

    Because its called out by Ford in the owners manual for the 2.7 and 2.3L? XO-5W30-Q1SP is a 5W-30 synthetic blend motor oil made by Motorcraft
  14. 🚨 Recall: Engine valve issue for some 2021-2022 2.7L Broncos and other models

    I just went through this with my wife's old Escape-it got reported that she had 3 accidents with the car-one was legit-got rear ended a few weeks after she got it, then another was a traffic light incident where she got bumped into (she had a bad experience with an accident in another state we...
  15. Bronco Cactus Grey + Sherwin Williams garage wall paint match

    I have a SW color called Sea Salt that is pretty close to cactus grey in my living room
  16. I shall call it Mini me...my wife's 2024 Bronco Sport

    Yeah I never got all the hate for the Bronco Sport, outside of it coming out first and laypeople not understanding it wasn't the quote, unquote the "real" Bronco.... I'm taking it out later for a drive, so I'll have a better impression of it then. I know the I3 has gotten hate from people...
  17. I shall call it Mini me...my wife's 2024 Bronco Sport

    My wife has always liked the Bronco Sport since its come out-she's owned two Escapes over the past 14 years-she loved the 2010 and the 2017 she had, but always preferred boxier styling over what the post 2013 Escape has had styling wise. So we got this Carbonized Gray Bronco Sport Big Bend...
  18. Ford EV hemorrhaging cash

    Standard 240 Volt Level 2 EV chargers use 40 Amps or more of electrical power and provide about 300 miles of charge overnight. Most of us don’t drive 300 miles a day (or 100,000 miles a year!), so selecting a power-smart EV charger is a no-brainer. For example, a Level 2 16 Amp EV charger will...
  19. Ford EV hemorrhaging cash

    In the grand scheme of things, how many road trips do people really take? You can drive about 3 hours without recharging an EV, and Tesla has a half way decent network to charge from (if you have the adaptor) and more charging points are getting put in every day. I know some people who drive...
  20. Ford EV hemorrhaging cash

    And you have a bunch of extra weight/complexity for not much gain in performance or fuel economy and are still dumping CO2 into the air from a bunch of little "dirty" engines. The Chevy Volt is what your more or less describing and it was a failure sales wise.
