  1. Badlands vs the other trims?

    All trims are 4WD capable, but I chose the BL for several reasons: 1) 4-cylinder turbo engine (just cannot wrap my mind around a 3-cyl) 2) Rides higher than the other trims 3) Two more GOAT modes and other extra off-road features 4) BL trim owners with the BL trims are the only ones invited to...
  2. picked up a sport, ordered all kinds of stuff last night. incoming build

    You may want to check with Vivid Racing in Arizona. They have all kinds of mods for the BS: chip upgrade for more HP, carbon fiber steering wheel, etc. https://www.vividracing.com/blog/tag/bronco-sport/
  3. More Evidence of FoMoCo Tightening the Screws on Dealerships.

    My salesman was great. MSRP price clear. Great communication. However, it was the annoying meeting with the "finance manger" and his efforts to sell me extended warranties, etc. Him: You need these extended warranty programs. Me: You mean what I'm buying is a piece of crap that Ford won't stand...
  4. Should I switch to premium fuel?

    Use the Eco GOAT mode more often
  5. How well made is your Bronco Sport?

    I'm very satisfied, but: 1. Easily scratched plastic interior. 2. The piano black plastic trim pieces on the exterior window pillars, which easily get small swirl scratches despite using the softest of towels. 3. Mine came with a defect in the zippered pocket on the back of the driver's seat...
  6. New 21 OB vs Used 21 BL, Decisions, decisions.

    Switch to Badlands. There have been some problems reported with the 3-cyl. engine and I think a couple recalls. Not only more power, but you get 7 GOAT modes, two more than OB. BL models also sit slightly higher. And only BS BL owners get to go to the Bronco Off-Roadeo (search forums).
  7. One more thing to add to the BS missing parts list?

    My funnel was missing also. Just bought one. Not a big deal. But check the back seat zippered pockets. On one of mine, the bottom of the pocket seam was not sewn and stuff just fell through under the seat. Ford replaced that seat cover.
  8. One more thing to add to the BS missing parts list?

    I noticed that one of the molds is for the key for the wheel locks. I got wheel locks after and saw how easy it fit there.
  9. Bronco Off-Rodeo Event in Austin, TX

    Just went to Austin Saturday, 3/26, awesome full day, distance travelling on back dirt roads, lunch, BBQ dinner. Small grouping (I was in group of 8). We got a free "Roadeo" Yeti bottle and various Roadeo stickers. Of course there is lots of Bronco SWAG available to purchase. All Sports...
  10. Zippered Seat Pocket-Open at the Bottom?

    Update. Showed to dealer on first maintenance. They ordered and replaced seat cover top per defect-no charge. No heartburn.
  11. Zippered Seat Pocket-Open at the Bottom?

    I hear ya. That is what I am thinking. The seat is very sold otherwise and I'd like to avoid some service department tearing it all down and poorly re-assembling just for this minor fix.
  12. Zippered Seat Pocket-Open at the Bottom?

    All: Took my Badlands on its first family trip to Yellowstone/Grand Teton and it performed just fine. Hours of driving across Nevada at 80 MPH in 104 degree heat with AC blowing. No issues and water temperature stayed right in the middle. However, this was the first time to use the zippered...
