Heaven forbid something happened to your Bronco Sport... what are you going to get next?

[davidg4781]

The dealership where I bought my Bronco Sport from called me today saying they had a special offer for me. I know it's marketing and I know it's to get me to buy another car from them, but it did get me thinking.

I'm at 6.5% APR and I can't find anyone to finance it at a better rate (my credit's great). I've had the Bronco Sport for 15 months and while I'm liking it, it can get a little cramped for cargo and there are small fit and finish issues. I haven't had any issues that most complain about.

I don't think I'd get a Big Bronco. I might consider a Passport Trailsport, but they're more expensive. Maybe an Outback or Crosstrek. I'd really want to get more into off-roading to see what my needs really would be.

We already have Badlands. So that's same trim.

while I love my Big Bend, I would probably upgrade to either a Badlands or a full size now that I’m making more money. I go back and forth on which one though.

Rivian R3X is my next vehicle unless Ford does a Sport comparable.

There is a Rivian truck driving around by me and it looks so smooth. 100% out of my ballpark though.

Yep. I’m waiting to see the R2 in person. I put a reservation in right after the announcement.

We would get another BS/BB. It is perfect for what we use it for.

Genesis GV70. We don't really off road. Bang for the buck is incredible. I found a "demo", 300 kms on a 24 model for virtually the same price as a new Badlands. The interior looks like it belongs in a 100k car. Reviews are saying this is the benchmark for compact luxury SUV's. I agree.

I love my BSBL! Ideally, I’d keep it if I could and then buy a full size Bronco! The BadSport is great around town and very capable for adventuring and off-roading. It’s funny to me- I wasn’t really interested in off-roading until I got my Sport and attended the Off-Roadeo. My husband was really into off-roading when we met, (he actually drove for the jeep tour companies out of Ouray for many years). Fast forward to now, and after one full year of an off-road season, I think we’ve learned the limits of the Badlands. I test drove a full size at the end of the summer, and fell in love! I would have traded then, but I have a great interest rate right now, and it just didn’t make sense financially to move to a full size - yet.

I like my 2021. I wouldn't buy a 2024 with all the Ford cheap-outs. I don't like the revealed refresh pics with the giant screen. I guess Maverick is a possibility but I don't think the tiny bed is worth it for a 4-door truck. Most every other pickup on the market now is too big, including Ranger, Tacoma and Colorado. Maybe back to GM. That's a very reliable brand in my time. Trailblazer? I like the current Jeep Cherokee, but it goes without saying that it's overpriced. I need my Sport to hang around.

I would consider the new Toyota 4Runner Hybrid:

same! Toyota on a roll with fuel sipping hybrids!

Another Badlands AND a full-size Bronco.

4Runner hybrid looks awesome....except for the cost of a Toyota!

When Ford Motor Company finally adapts a true ICE/hybrid for the Bronco Sport, will it be a cost-saving purchase, or will it be the same ballpark price as the Toyota 4Runner? The Toyota would probably be the better purchase if the cost is the same.
