My poor 2023 Bronco Sport Big Bend was rear-ended and is totaled. The insurance company is going to give me an as-yet-undetermined sum to replace it. As I look at used options online, I don’t see any with a hitch receiver, which I have due to occasionally pulling a small trailer. When buying the vehicle new, I purchased the towing package. This includes the hitch receiver, wiring (which I needed modified), and “trailer sway control”. If I purchase a used BS without Ford’s towing…

Bronco 2024 Outer Banks – Heating
this is my second Bronco (guess why?) … I’m a happy camper!!
However, here is my question in hopes someone can enlighten me.

Shudder not sure if it’s brakes
23 Heritage 1.5 slow speed forward or reverse intermittently makes a shuddering feel and sound when turning such as in or out of parking spot. Believe it is only when light pressure applied/covering brakes. Slow speed only. Seems like it’s in the rear and it definitely not motor doing it. Any ideas?

Those of you who take your off-roading a little more seriously and don’t already have some traxtion boards, may want to head on over to Amazon ASAP and get some while they are at the lowest price, in years!
While I love my USAction Trax, if I was to start over, I might choose the newer, Max Trax Lite’s, only available in Black (?), to save some space and weight, inside, with them…

Muddling in a ‘25 BSBLS – questions
I’m going mudding tomorrow. I have yet to take my 6 month old ‘25 BLS off-road. I’ve been searching online, and it unfortunately appears that the Mud/Ruts mode is no longer part of the ‘25 BLS‘ programming. Any recommendations on which mode to use?
Thanks,
Laurence
