Thank you. Coronado is one of the places I plan to go. I'm also real close to Agua Fria, and Tonto, so it doesn't take long for me to get on a dirt road. I went badlands, put the deposit down hoping to pickup on Monday. I'll make another post once it's a done deal.
But I have said many times, it is more different than just the engine.
yeah, it was two different locations as well so it that could also explain it. It wasn’t a huge negative, just the outer banks felt more comfy, even the seat which is allegedly exactly the same. And yes, I know the...
I just drove a heritage with continental cross contact atr. Wasn’t as smooth as the outer banks, more like a truck but that should be expected. It had enough interior features.
Given everything stated here I’m putting the heritage over the outer banks.
Here’s another example of river crossing and a rutted road. You can see a javelina on the left, I was too slow at getting my phone camera out. But it’s not far from the river and so it gets soft (not the foreground, that was easy to drive over)
Unfortunately I don’t have any great road picture examples but here’s one. In the foreground, it’s easily driveable with my VW but then the hill comes. The road kinda disappears but it’s there if you zoom in. It becomes way more rocky because the rain washes away the dirt. Would a heritage or...
This article turned me off of the Rav4 and Subaru

Thanks for this. I agree, the trim levels are confusing and not linear. I'm not interested in towing, but a full spare is desirable. I'm not sure if it's better to get the towing now for convenience and resale, but it is an extra $1k basically.
I am also confused by the wheels and tire...
As of this moment, I have access to all trim levels, with heritage limited, heritage, and badlands being the least available. I suspect a Big Bend or Outer Banks would be most likely a price reduction
Do all the trims have same cargo space?
I’m not worried about rear leg room. More ease of installing and taking out car seats. It’s easy on out VW and the legroom specs are about 1” less than bronco sport but maybe anchor setup is different.
Hello everyone, I am currently in the market for a new vehicle. For the first time I am buying an off road capable vehicle with on road handling. I’ve rented a few Jeep Wranglers and it was an easy no. The Bronco Sport seems to check a lot of boxes and in researching came across this forum. Our...
