My MY 2025 doesn’t have one of these. The MY23 did-it fell out every time I changed its filter. Has ford discontinued this item on newer cars or did the factory forget something??
I have a Rough Country 40” straight bar. It whistled like a banshee at any speed over 15mpg. All noise stopped when I installed the, included, rubber whistle-stopper pieces. They were a loose fit and could blow off at speed. Fixed that by applying large quantities of silicone tile caulk around...
Wanted cactus gray, very nice color but dropped for MY25. Marsh gray seemed the closest-wrrrong. Didn’t like any other colors so settled. I can not see even a vestige of gray in this color. This one should be called chocolate mousse. All my friends like the color, maybe they are just being...
The dashboard of my MY25 Badsquach!
………….Virtually all car manufacturers do the temp gauge bias trick to prevent alarming ignorant drivers. The gauge is reasonably linear from cold up to thermostat temp (who cares about this zone) then it compresses everything from there to about 230-240° into...
The MY25 Broncos have solved this problem: no more digital readouts. Just a gas gauge type display that reads from 8 to 18 volts. You have no idea what the voltage is-so you will stop worrying. Same BS for the oil/tranny temps. Ford did add a water temp gauge-but it’s also useless since it is...
Had my improved Bronco on its first major trail outing last week. The new Trail Status screen is very helpful. Halfway thru the trip the screen stopped showing tire pressures??? Can’t find any settings that mess with this screen. Did Ford sneak in a software downgrade that removed this feature...
Oh yeah, forgot to mention: they (almost) fixed the dashboard. Much better speedo/tach, off-road status display is great except halfway through my recent trail ride it stopped showing tire pressure? Really miss the numeric gauge panel-wish they would just display the numbers on top of the...
I did exactly the same transition. Have noticed other differences too. Would be good to have this thread document all the differences.
Here are some of mine. Worst was loss of Cactus Gray. Marsh Gray should be called Chocolate Mousse. As advertised: the Hoss 3 is a significant upgrade to the...
That works well if using a connector-less cable. But then you have to mess with more solder/crimp joints. My lights came with an excellent harness and waterproof connectors. It included a relay and remote switch pod. The current draw was well within Upfitter 3 capabilities, so I just cut the...
My ditch lights came with a nice waterproof connector. Way too big to thread through the tiny cowl slot. Easy fix: remove the larger screw at the cowling accessory mount location, only on the side involved. Use a plastic panel remover tool to pry up the plastic cowl piece. Only pry/warp it...
I posted a pic earlier. Maybe it got lost. Here it is again. You can only get a vague idea of temperatures, voltage, boost pressure. The speedo doesn’t even have numbers! There is now a water temp gauge but conveys little information other than it’s too hot
Here’s a pic. Note that other than 0 and 120MPH there are no speed marks on the speedo. The needle is on 0 since I wasn’t moving, at 60 MPH I suppose it would be straight up? Note that the gauges are thermometers with no usable fiducial marks other than the extrema? I was wrong about the boost...
I traded my ‘23 non sas high ragtop Badlands for a sas lux hardtop ‘25. So far really love it other than losing beautiful Cactus Gray for ugly Swamp Water Brown (aka marsh gray). Really like the new dash-except where are the numbers on the analog speedo????? And they could have put something...
I traded in my non sas ‘23 for a sas ’25. Really sad that cactus grey is gone. Marsh Gray is more like Swamp Water Brown! The interior lighting is better but still not adequate. Has anyone seen aftermarket offerings that integrate with the existing light circuit. The ads all say compatible with...
Did you measure the actual current draw by the light? Also when you finally get it on at night how is the pattern? Especially the vertical. Does it do a better job of lighting up your hood than the trail? And if when tilted up above the hood does it mostly light the sky? My cheapo light has a...
