Another reason to buy a Ford Bronco;

The Ford Motor Company is recalling more than 500,000 sport utility vehicles across the United States over fire risks resulting from a possibly cracked fuel injector.

Ford, the second-largest car manufacturer in the U.S., said that while the likelihood of fires was rare, it was compelled to offer the recall after being informed of at least 20 such incidents. The recall covers the company's Bronco Sport and Escape SUVs manufactured between the 2020 and 2023 model years.

The Bronco Sport and Escape are SUVs about as much as I am a body builder because I have weights in my house.
You ever watch some of the soft roaders and what they can do? It’s amazing the effort and money they’ll put into a vehicle so that it can compete with an early 90s 4x4 on all season tires. Modern 8 and 10 speed transmissions to allow for better crawl rations without a T case but that’s only part of capability.

I would not want to push a new vehicle all that hard out of fear of damaging it. I personally don’t understand the wilderness Subarus, the outback gets a couple more MPG over my wrangler but comes in at a similar price for way less capability where you have push it make multiple attempts and risk damaging the vehicle on milf trails.

I could be wrong here, but I don't think the OP had sarcasm in mind with this one. I see it as more of At least Ford is taking the high road on this instead of the FCA approach of putting a Band-aid on a sucking chest wound.

But, yeah. I could be wrong.
