  1. Wife lost all memory.

    My wife not only bought her own car, she pays the insurance bill. 35 years of marriage not one financial argument. I pay some bills she pays others. :wink: Back on topic: "Notice cleaning her Sport the front bumper was damaged." Her car, you didn't ding it, no blood or hair on her minor...
  2. Wife lost all memory.

    My wife would most likely point you to the cliff and then help with a push. Pointing out each other's foibles then trying to "fix" them is no "life" worth living as a couple. Tom
  3. Wife lost all memory.

    In the long run it's cheaper to just accept it and say "yes dear".
  4. 4 years in, finally see a crack in hardtop!

    Easier to quantify...weak. Cracked before any roll situation. :ROFLMAO:
  5. DO NOT READ IF EASILY TRIGGERED BY 2.7 OIL LEVEL QUESTIONS... Incorrect Dipstick Readings...

    It can also increase road noise, crack windshields and MIC hardtops, and cause battery drain. There should be a dipstick recall. :eek: Tom
  6. 4 years in, finally see a crack in hardtop!

    Certainly enough that every new cracked MIC discovered (with no new information or solution) doesn't require another thread. :facepalm: Tom
  7. Test drove a 2026 Badlands - do all Broncos have this much tire noise?

    Probably, but not necessarily true. Many, like me, just want a vehicle that goes where I want, does what I want like a truck, but I don't want or need a bed, or a panel van. I love camping but know I will never go rock crawling. My 2 door Base is the perfect vehicle for me, with 16 inch road...
  8. Bronco after 100k miles

    That would have been 2017. :beer: Tom
  9. Test drove a 2026 Badlands - do all Broncos have this much tire noise?

    Once recalls, cracked top, or broken windshield gives you something to complain about the tire noise almost disappears. :wink: Tom
  10. Driving BLIND in heavy rain!

    I highly recommend staying way up north where they say: "vous tous". :wink: Tom
  11. Fuel smell in cabin…extreme heat in AZ…HELP

    The other possible alternative might be a stuck purge valve but that usually also causes hard starting, rough running, and/or a check engine light. Unfortunately neither the purge valve nor the canister are covered by the 8 year/80,000 mile emissions warranty. I'd not fill up before letting it...
  12. Fuel smell in cabin…extreme heat in AZ…HELP

    AI: "When a charcoal evap canister solidifies or gets clogged, it causes a strong fuel smell because liquid gasoline or saturated carbon blocks airflow, preventing the system from venting or purging properly."
  13. Fuel smell in cabin…extreme heat in AZ…HELP

    Just a guess, with no leaks, charcoal evap canister has solidified and needs to be replaced. Tom
  14. My bait and switch oil change experience.

    Don't get sucked in and go back, win-win, you and service manager. 🤣
  15. My bait and switch oil change experience.

    Rectifying an advertising mistake or clarifying a misunderstanding does not prove their intent to "bait and switch". Either way they clarified and you walked away, then they corrected their coupon; no harm no foul. :) Tom
  16. My bait and switch oil change experience.

    False advertising is only determined by a court. :whistle: Even all "Full Synthetic" designated oils aren't fully synthetic. Courts have determined petroleum based (Group III Petroleum Synthetic) oils can say “Full Synthetic” as long as they perform like true fully synthetic (Group IV PAO...
  17. MARSH GRAY Bronco Club

    15th MEU had an attached Seal Team Det with those 2 pictured in the Sandbox 1991... :) Tom
  18. Fuel smell in cabin…extreme heat in AZ…HELP

    Expanded gas (and fuel) now goes into the charcoal overflow canister which eventually hardens the charcoal into lumps and then the overflow is vented to the atmosphere, hence the smell. Tom
  19. Fuel smell in cabin…extreme heat in AZ…HELP

    If that's not sarcasm: it's squeezing more gas in after the first pump auto shut off. Tom
