I believe what we've learned is the MIC 2.0 was really just the MIC 1.0 with a primer added to some of the panels. I have a dirt mountain Bronco and my middle panel is pretty clearly a lighter shade than the front panels... and the back cap is even darker than the front panels. My 4 panels are...
haha I love this. Most every car I have owned was/is German. I've never 'broken in' a motor. I just hop in it and go. First service interval for me is 10k miles so that's what I go by. Never had an issue.
The Bronco is getting the same treatment. I had it off road on day 3 of ownership...
non-sas OBX here and I have a small chip already. It hasn't cracked yet but I'm sure it will. It's just a little chip right now.
I figured the vertical window is going to promote this behavior and then the fact that I live in phoenix and it's the rock chip capital of the world lol. I have 3...
I hand washed mine this weekend for the first time and the slow, extended period of water sitting causing a leak theory makes a lot of sense to me after. I didn't wash the top with soap and a sponge, I just rinsed it and toweled it off at the end. When I got up there (had to use a step stool...
Ive driven the 2.3 a couple time and I have a 2.7… the 2.3 is fine but not great. It feels peppy but under powered. It feels similar to like the VW Tiguan with the 2.0t. A suv with a motor from a golf. It’s fine but once you get into mountains or passing at speed it feels weak. Peppy but...
I had 5 sets of golf clubs in the back of my 4 door with no seats down. This thing can hold 9 sets of golf clubs without the seats down. Just take the woods out and you can lay 3 golf bags across and you can stack them 3 golf bags high.
That’s 5 bags and their woods on top. A 6th would...
this is interesting and I'm wondering if I have the same issue. I need to pay closer attention now. I have had a few instances, all while stopped at lights, where the car started creeping forward and the brake pedal felt softer/lighter/etc. Each time it took me reapplying the brake pedal.
I...
Uh check that the negative terminal on the battery is actually connected correctly. Mine wasn't and I suffered a full power loss at an intersection and was stuck for 30-40 minutes. Someone else posted that they experienced the same thing on the highway last week.
i had this exact issue with mine. It was Day 8 with the car and at a light I experienced a full power loss. Smack in the middle of a very busy intersection in central Phoenix.
I popped the hood and looked at the battery but everything looked fine. After about 30 minutes the DRLs clicked on...
Mine starts somewhere between 60 mph and 70… it’s pretty damn annoying.
not sure this will ever be my wife and I’s road trip car lol. Whistles, top rattles and a whole lot of road noise.
I wouldn’t go back and get the soft top. I think the soft top just flatly looks bad and makes the entire car look different (and for the worse).
I also had a July build so I wouldn’t have been able to get the hardtop hookups if I had gone softie.
but no, I wouldn’t have ordered a softie...
hah yeah I mean I’m glad I have it. But this top is absolute piece of shit. People can sugar coat it all they want. It’s poorly designed, poorly finished and is going to give all owners problems until Ford figures out a more permanent solution.
I wouldn’t be thrilled if my top looked this way...
I’m 6 days into ownership of a dirt mountain bronco. It’s starting to honeycomb on the back cap. It also has some spots under the rear passenger window on the back cap where the primer/finish is delaminating. It wasn’t like that when I took delivery but it was also night and hard to really...
I’ve had my bronco for 6 days. It’s a dirt mountain bronco with whatever revised MIC top they did.
it’s trash.
Im sorry but I have no other way of describing it other than it’s trash.
In 6 days the top has:
1 - Began to show its snakeskin
2 - Has parts of the finish (or primer that they...
The window thing drives me a bit insane. My issue is more with basically having to slam the door to get it to shut so the window will roll up. It's honestly my biggest issue with this car right now (which is a good thing by the way because thing is surpassing my expectations).
I think why it...
haha! My bronco which is on a train headed to Phoenix is going to be street parked year round. Can’t wait to see what happens to this top when it’s 115*
On a side note, I took part in the Ford event out by WeKoPa. The top on the outerbanks I drove looked awful. I asked the rep if it was the...
