  1. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    The Bronco is gone. I have no need for Bronco6g anymore. I have a Land Rover Defender, which is my third in 30 years amongst many other cars. JLR has their issues too, but not needed to be discussed here. i no longer own a Ford. I merely posted to let all know what I dealt with regarding...
  2. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    BTW, I got whacked on trade in. $42k (with negotiation). for a low miles Bronco Badlands Sasquatch with no known issues other than the transmission and upgrades. Someone is getting a well kept low mileage used car. I am really disappointed in Ford. I really wanted to keep this car for the...
  3. Manual transmission scraping noise / grinding sound

    I had a 2022 Badlands Sasquatch with the manual transmission. I pre-ordered the car in 2021. The “bucket of marbles” transmission noise was driving me crazy. I took it in several times to my Ford dealer. I was told last month(aftwr the service advisor spoke to a regional rep) that Ford...
  4. Pennsylvania 2-Door Driver/Passenger MIC Roof Panels

    I am looking to purchase a set of driver/passenger replacement MIC roof panels for a 2-door. Mine were damaged and cannot be repaired. I do not need the rear panel with the hatchback. Hoping to find replacement panels before buying a Trektop.
  5. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    With the leftover from the $78 cover vs the Broncover tarp, I can put it towards the cost of eggs and heating oil here in the NE. I bought a Bronco, not a Land Rover. I like the tarp comment, but I do have some decorum.
  6. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    Ditto. $370. Too pricey for what it is. Always a market.
  7. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    It would be great if Bestop came out with a product solution for this (wink wink, hey Bestop) that is affordable. Otherwise, at this point in writing this, your options are (1) Ford accessory part that is not waterproof and needs to be treated - plus it has water pooling issues; (2) aftermarket...
  8. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    This has been covered in other posts, but are your panel tops a different shade than your rear hardtop component? Although I have had my Bronco since 4/22, I do not have 2k miles on it yet as it is a spare vehicle, so I have not taken it in for service and addressed the issue with Ford (which I...
  9. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    Hey, you are too self-critical on your carpentry skills! Very creative. The fabrics looks to be much better than the Ford option. It is still winter weather in the NE where I am and I do not anticipate taking my hardtop off fully until May, but I am going to give this cover a shot and will...
  10. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    FYI on the Ford cover. It really is thin material and I didn’t make it a summer season without one of the tie downs ripping off in the back. The Broncover for the 2-door looks nice but for $370 (pretty steep in my opinion) I will gamble with the cheaper Chinese versions.
  11. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    FYI, I use an extendable paint rolling poll as my “center support.” For $78 I will pick up the Amazon cab cover as well. Thanks for the link.
  12. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    The problem I have with the Ford accessory top is water pooling. I had to improvise with an extendable pole to make a tent in the middle of the top of the cover for the water to runoff. This Amazon top doesn’t seem to address that issue either but maybe it is a tighter fit than the Ford top.
  13. Holy Crap... I got THE call. Now what?

    I really lucked out regarding order/delivery and tracking. I reserved my 2dr Badlands 2.3 manual squatch/lux on Memorial Day weekend 2021. Put order in for 2021, got bumped to 2022 and reordered in October 2021. I got the production email in late February 2022 (I wasn’t expecting it to be...
  14. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    As an update on this Ford accessory, I’ve been using it for two months now full time outside. I haven’t had any leaks after putting the waterproofer on it. Only issue that I have is water pooling on the top, but I use an adjustable paint roller pole I had in my garage now and put it behind the...
  15. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    I mean…. If you are going to go to the effort of having a manufacturer put a big ass “Bronco” label on the front of your cheap vinyl top accessory, wouldn’t you consider using waterproof vinyl as well (or instead) especially for a $250+ price. Not too much common sense going on there…
  16. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    As an update, I just had a series of thunderstorms come through this evening with some heavy rain. The Ford bikini top coated with Scotchguard didn’t leak at all. It pools water at the top, which I remove by simply folding it forward towards the windshield to drain. I will play with options...
  17. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    I coated it with a couple of cans of Scotchgard outdoor water proof spray. It now repels water. It does pool water on the top without any support but after installing a Bimini top, that isn’t as much of a problem. I don’t leave it on full time outside, but do leave it on if a storm is...
  18. Carmax offer for 2.7, 4 door, soft top, basesquatch

    I have a 2022 Badlands Sasquatch 2 Door Lux manual with very low miles. I’ve been thinking about parting ways because I really should have purchased a 4-door and can put in a new order and get what I want in 2023. Carmax gives me the same run around about bringing it in etc. I called a few...
  19. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    I am not interested in a full car cover. I just want a cockpit cover to keep rain out during the summer and not have to put the top on every time the car is parked outside. I ended up purchasing the Ford cockpit cover (stealership matched an online price) and will use Fordpass points. I will...
  20. Car Cover for Rain When Hardtop Off?

    I looked at Broncover, but it appears they only make 4-door versions and they are sold out anyway.
