I’m loving her so far! The color is what stuck out to me. I’d love to cover the red letters on the grill with black overlays. Does anyone have a brand they recommend?

Got these hooked up to the aux switches in my Badlands, super happy with how they turned out!
Switch 2 is very easy to access from the engine bay, the other 3 are hidden behind the fender liners (1&3 on driver; 4 on passenger). I ended up connecting the whites to switch 2 and the ambers to switch 3.
Highly recommend soldering and heat shrink instead of the crimp connectors included in the kit for more reliable connections.
Feel free to ask any questions about the aux switches, I’ll try my best to answer them. Not a ton of information for the BS online.
I purchased my 2022 Sport in January 2025. At that time they replaced the water pump while I was purchasing it. Here we are in October 26 and I need a new water pump and the thing only has 26k miles on it. I'm one of the lucky few who has warranty still but this is still absurd. How do I need 2 water pump replacements under 30k miles?
Before anybody asks, yes, I already have an appointment booked to have it looked at I just want to hear other's experiences as well :)
I have a 2021 Outer Banks that has about 94,800 miles on it. Over the last few weeks I've noticed it just feeling off while accelerating from a stop, kind of jerky and shuddering. This escalated in the last couple of days when I noticed that I had to start pressing on the gas pedal a lot harder for it to accelerate than I have in the past. Driving it overall doesn't feel the same as it used to somehow.
Curious if anybody has had these things happen before and if so, what the problem was? Given the high mileage I have on the vehicle (bought it two and a half years ago somewhere around 40k I want to say, and it's been our road trip car + I've moved twice and gone back and forth between home and college several times since I've owned it so I've put more than 50k on it) its value has declined quite a bit so I'm concerned about an expensive fix on it being worth it. I'm also just genuinely frustrated because as much as I love the car I'm tired of all the little things like this I've had happen on it and all of the recalls I've had to deal with.
Thank you all in advance for any input you have!
I got this roof rack a while ago and although I love having it.. The bag that goes on it stinks to use. You have to strap it down and tighten and loosen it to fit. The metal rack, I’ve had to silicone the flat part because it rattled so much, than the bolts rust than rust on my Bronco. Today I found out that the bag leaks.. not saying it wasn’t user error but I put the zipper in the back, put the flap down over the zipper.. I don’t know.
With all the said.. does anyone suggest a roof rack that’s waterproof? I was hoping to not get one of those huge hard case ones but I don’t see much for options. Thanks everyone.
After doing some research and reading alot on here and listening to others..I got a 2026 Outer Banks yesterday. I love it so far. I am not planning on doing any off roading but what are some other tips I should know to keep this car at it's peak. Also, I am leasing it. Thank you!
My new 25 bronco sport badlands. Was going to get a Big Bend but I test drove the badlands and LOVED it.
When I signal right my blinker indicator goes at double speed. I’ve taken a look at the blinker on in both directions from outside the vehicle. Also put on hazards. All blinkers and lights seem normal I think. What would cause the double speed indicator from inside the vehicle if no light is actually out?
Just bought one. Great for getting the dogs in and out. Great fuel efficiency. And damned if it isn't fun as hell. That 1.5L 3 cylinder (which is so weird) has quite a bit of punch.
I think Ford did a damned good job with this rig. My HD Chevy diesel I think is officially now my secondary vehicle.
Last thing I'll say? I'm NFL lineback sized at 6'6 and 350. It's by far the smallest and yet comfortable car I've found on the market. And I tried.... Mach E, Mustang, BRZ, WRX, Charger, Challenger among many others.
Joined the club today! Couldn’t be happier. If anyone has accessory/upgrade ideas or links, please drop them below. Much appreciated 😎
Got home with my new to me 2025 Ford Bronco Sport Outer Banks! I moved up from a 2019 Ford Escape to it because of the better ground clearance. I was looking at the regular Bronco but it was too big for me right now. The one downside is the lack of a spare tire, but I love it. Let me know of any recommendations
I'm looking at a new BS Badlands. How are the stock tires for just road driving, maybe moderate snow twice a year?
Gonna camp tonight, hike Longs Peak tomorrow then on Tuesday it’ll be time to take the roof top tent off and put it up for the season
A couple of big broncos across from us called ours a “momco” kinda a vibe for any moms who drive the baby bronco. Although I know he meant it as an insult, oh well.
