LCDs are cheap. I'm glad they didn't go with 'twin LCDs flanking analog' because that's what 90% of Fords looked like through the 2010s
But what we got wasn't much better.
An analog speedometer with a TINY needle and 20mph increments, so you can't quickly determine your speed at a glance. A...
Ford does seem to factor time into the oil life. My Flex rarely gets driven (less than 300 miles per year) and the oil life percentage will decrease without ever starting the engine.
I'll +1 the official tailgate table.
Didn't like the requirement to drill holes in sheetmetal.
Even with a good amount of mechanical experience, it was difficult confidently getting the holes EXACTLY square.
Included fasteners are low quality
The shimming used to get it plumb feel like an...
Positive on positive, negative on chassis ground. There's a current meter somewhere along the line that's used for the battery management system. You need to pass your charge through that, which means the negative can't be directly on the battery post.
May sound odd, but are you trying to access through work in any way?
I have a Verizon hotspot issued by my employer. Most sites work just fine but specifically Forscan and Pastebin are blocked for some reason.
You could always just use your phone in 4G mode
I've asked every time the window reset procedure gets posted, because even the workshop manual is vague about it...
"Press and hold the switch" -- am I pressing to the first detent (open/close) or the second detent (auto-open/auto-close)?
PM me and I'll send a set off to you. Looks like you have private messages disabled.
I need to tweak the design on the hitch blank, mine fell off at some point.
Add them -- I did in my Flex ;) If the Bronco were mine, I'd have done the retrofit already.
Sometimes it would help if people posted their height/build when discussing seat comfort. I'm 5 10, average build, and the Bronco feels fine to me. Better than my 22 Silverado, little worse than my...
Take a look at this chart, compare your value to the parameters within. You want whatever is the same but CMbB enabled.

Afaik you just need to enable it using forscan easymode settings for both IPC and APIM. It'll appear in the Driver Features section of the touchscreen. You need to have the engine running, doors closed, seatbelt buckled in order to toggle the setting.
Stop-and-Go + Autohold Enable -- i was one of the loudest prerelease critics that this wasn't available from the factory
Suma mirrors
Onboard battery charger. Our trips are too short and the alternator can't charge the battery enough on its own
Adding a rain sensor. I need to tweak the method...
Down the driver's side A-pillar to the fusebox near the steering column. I don't remember exactly which fuses I tapped into.
The installation for the IAG interior lights shows the "proper" way to run wires down the pillar. I just tucked mine in between the plastic trim and windshield.
All of my cars have Thinkware F200 Pros.
It's not 4K but still good image quality. Haven't had any issues with any of them. Usually ~$160 on Amazon, comes with a 32GB card.
For the rear camera, double-sided tape doesn't like to stick to the plastics. I 3d printed a bigger bracket so the camera...
There's never really a situation to use it where you wouldn't just use the cargo area instead.
Granted, we do "campground" camping and not "deep woods" camping.
I'm sure there's still drilling involved but could be wrong.
Hopefully it gets resolved soon enough.
Mistakes can happen of course. My 22 Silverado was leaking transmission fluid from the factory, and a shop once installed a replacement control arm on the wrong side of my Dodge -- no idea how they got the bolts to line up.
Does the 4cyl use a traditional drain plug? The 2.7 uses a weird new single-use plastic one that dumps all the oil in half a second.
