A huge glut of used cars? Not in VA. Where are you at? I just attended a dealer auction with a dealer friend - prices are not dropping and demand is actually increasing for used vehicles in our market.
Ironically, how many people - just on this forum - are calling for "ending the dealership model" - which would almost guarantee no more heavy discounts. I bought a new '19 Mustang GT in sept '19 for almost 5% UNDER Invoice. High volume dealer. Now they can't get enough cars to keep their sales...
Here's some updated / more current TSBs / SSMs:
SSM 50870 - 2022 Bronco - 2.3L - Charging System Fault Message In The Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) With DTCs U012D, U0284 And/Or U0285 - Built On 01-APR-2022 And Through08-APR-2022
Some 2022 Broncos equipped with a 2.3L engine and built on...
I can almost guarantee it will NOT be a "plain English" drop down or option.
It will be hex code at a certain address / addresses for certain modules.
It's not hard.

I would scan it for viruses during download - but I...
Meh - I've had too many cars I wish I still had. I fixed up / sold / traded a bunch of cars over the years.
(2) 240Zs and (1) 260Z - none of them were rusted. All West Coast cars. 260Z got a LT1 Chevy and 6 speed manual swap. Sold to a guy for what I thought was WAY too much money (didn't want...
Ge the Aero 303 kit for convertible tops. I already had it for my wife's Mustang convertible. The Bestop soft top we added to our 2dr seems to be almost identical in material to the Mustang top. It's a cleaner and protector. Easy to use and not pricey.
Depends on the dealer. Many of them are VERY heavily into Google Reviews and other online reviews. I'm not sure why a signed Buyer's Order with MSRP + dealer fees listed and signed by both parties isn't enough to get traction?
I added the Ford Hood deflector in the first few days after we got out 2 dr. Not so much as a chip in our windshield (3500+ miles) and that's interstate / highway trips, back roads etc.
I wonder if it makes enough difference with airflow that it helps with this or is it complete coincidence...
Depends on what you want. Car audio is subjective. What sounds GREAT to one person can sound bad to another.
If we hadn't of gone soft top on our 2 door (so easy to raise / lower and I honestly doubt we'll ever put the hard top back on - it's garaged when parked at our house) I doubt I would...
My buddy has a Jeep Wrangler, last year of the inline 6 ('05? 06? Can't remember off hand) with a 5 speed manual. 200K miles Plus - I say "plus" because the cluster / odometer died and he found a used one. His wife has tried to get him to get a newer model, he refuses.
Download a free program called AsBuiltExplorer. Then go to the Motorcraft link and download the STOCK AsBuilt files for a SAS Bronco and yours. Find a VIN for the SAS by asking here or searching dealers. You want the same engine / trans / trim as your where only SAS was added.
Well, this morning I went ahead and bypassed the power feed in the plugnplay harness to the Kicker Key 200.4, and ran a 12ga power wire with fuse holder to the same post on the battery where I ran the power feed for the Kicker hideaway sub.
My issue was the system sounds so much better than...
Look for a free program called AsBuilt explorer. It lets you load and compare different asbuilt files and it will show which exact lines are different.
So you would download your original AsBuilt files from Motorcraft, then download your current AsBuilt and do a compare.
I’ve done it in the...
Yesterday capped off the Kicker Key 200.4 Amp install (with Kicker 4" dash speakers, Kicker 6.75" in the kick panels) with an add on harness from @plugnplaykits for a Kicker 8" hideaway sub. Then this morning replaced the rear speakers with 4" Kickers and bass blockers. Then re ran the Key amp...
mileage may vary on BBB. I ain’t a Boomer, and a critical, public BBB complaint saved me $3k and lawyer’s fees. (Before the complaint the company told me to sue them if I wanted).
Just saying.
If the lines of the hood match up with the fenders, I wouldn’t mess with it. Driver’s side is likely doing it too.
Modern vehicles with aluminum hoods. Common.
Seriously google search “hood shake at speed”.
Got the Kicker HS8 hideaway sub installed. Keep in mind we have a 2 door. I removed the rear seats (I'm going to build a platform - no one rides in the back seat our kids are grown). The HS8 fits perfect behind the driver's seat. Can't even see it with the seat back in normal driving position...
FYI I had signed up for updates via email when the BJD bag would be back in stock. Randomly checked their website today -it's apparently now being made to order. 2-3 weeks delivery window after payment / order. Went ahead and ordered it.
Just letting people know if they signed up to be...
