  1. Windshield Tint?

    Windshield is illegal in every state (other than the top strip). Cali allows 70% on front side, which is barely tinted.
  2. Rear locker or both?

    Don't need one for the front. Bronco has an open rear for some ungodly reason, so a rear locker is very nice to have.
  3. Windshield Tint?

    Didn't want mine to match. Did 35% on the front sides (max legal in AZ), and 20% on the rear and cap. Kind of wish I had gone down to 15 on those. 35% is actually kind of hard to see when turning onto dirt roads with no street lighting. Need to install so ditch lights for left and right turns.
  4. Brake Pads and Right to Repair

    Had to fight them for weeks on returning a part for my Frontier. They said it was my fault for ordering the wrong part, I said it was their fault because they had the wrong part in their system. They sent me the MAF for the V6, not the I4, but their parts configurator had the V6 part number...
  5. Air pressure question

    They used the same defective tires on the Ranger, but Ranger never got the negative press that the Exploder did.
  6. Engine failure at 45k miles

    Daughter drives a Subaru. I check the oil ever time I drive it.
  7. Air pressure question

    And I'm still mad that those bastards at Firestone still owe me a set of tires. They only recalled the Wilderness A/T. The Wilderness H/T had the same defect. Fortunately I was in my driveway and not the freeway when the tread chunked off.
  8. Air pressure question

    People like to blame the lower pressure on the door sticker, but mine were inflated to 35 PSI and threw off the tread in less than 1000 miles. Those tires were defective. Period. That being said, Ford does overinflate for shipping. Part of PDI is to take the air pressure back to the door...
  9. Bronco set first half and second quarter sales record and outsold Jeep Wrangler in Q2 2026

    Took me 5 months to get a tailgate on my Bronco after getting rear ended. Everyone blamed the aluminum shortage. Fortunately it was drivable. Retail sales of the Escape were mediocre, with the Baby Bronco cannibalizing most retail sales. The majority of Escape sales were fleet and rental...
  10. Thinking about a Bronco

    It's not getting in or out. The B-pillar jabs you in the shoulder on the 4 door when you rest your arm on the window sill.
  11. Thinking about a Bronco

    The doors are six inches longer on the 2-door. And the B-pillar is thus 6 inches forward.
  12. Thinking about a Bronco

    I would have got a 4-door if they were not so small and cramped. Tiny cockpit with the B-pillar jabbing me in the shoulder killed it for me.
  13. Thinking about a Bronco

    Looks at Bronco: 2 doors, metallic red, manual transmission, rear wheel drive... Bronco is an Eco-boost Mustang with 4WD. :cool:
  14. Backup Camera lines missing after tailgate replacement.

    SOLVED: Body shop needed to use an ODBII scan tool (ADAS) of some sort to initialize the new camera.
  15. Backup Camera lines missing after tailgate replacement.

    That's my guess. Body shop is 1/8 mile from work, so I'll take it down there first thing in the morning.
  16. Backup Camera lines missing after tailgate replacement.

    No, there is not. I dug through all the settings. For some stupid reason Hill Start Assist had turned itself back on, so it was worth going through all the settings. If you have parking assist, there is a setting to turn off the beep. But no settings for the lines.
  17. Anyone else concerned owning this car out of warranty ?

    The 65 was literally a set of hinged rods that shoved directly on the clutch fork. One of them was threaded for adjustment. The 01, 06, and 08 were certainly hydraulic, but I'm sure they didn't have weird assemblies on the hydraulic line. This is the part that failed...
  18. New Style Oil Drain Plug?

    Wal-mart tends to get it done in 45 minutes. Had the garbage dealership by me take 5 hours when I had an appointment.
  19. Backup Camera lines missing after tailgate replacement.

    Ok, so after 5 months of waiting the body shop finally got a tailgate for the rear-end we had in January. Body shop replaced the rear tailgate, AND the spare tire carrier. I assume they failed to do something. Any idea what? Obviously I'm taking it back in the morning, but if it's an easy...
  20. Anyone else concerned owning this car out of warranty ?

    Don't remember my mod 2000s Mustangs doing that, but they never had weird parts fail either. Never had this problem in the 60's when the clutch was completely mechanical. I see no reason a clutch should be hydraulic in the first place.
