Who the heck were these so-called "expert testers" at the Edmonds track? 7.2 seconds for 0-60? I've seen it as low as 6 and an average of 6.5. No way a 250 HP engine with 275lb-ft of torque, on a vehicle that weighs only 3300 lbs, should take more than 7 seconds to reach 60mph. Perhaps they...
I've always liked the look and functionality of mud guards, especially on vehicles with flat backs that take a lot of splash. They worked well on my 97 4Runner...how are you finding them on the Bronco Sport? Helping to keep the back wiper from working overtime?
I think it's different between Ford Canada and Ford US as well? I didn't get anything back from Ford either but my dealership swears it's in the queue and they have had confirmation back from Ford. Sure hope that's the case because when I call Ford Canada, they don't have any record of my...
Agree 100%. If you keep your vehicles for a decade or more like I do...the first year satisfaction of "instant gratification" will wear off long before the 9 years after that of remorseful staring at in the driveway going "damn I really wish I would have gotten the colour I wanted!"
Yeah it makes no sense to me. Just because I want the additional 4WD capability for my time on mountain trails...doesn't mean I don't want all the creature comforts associated with the 90% of driving I'm going to do in the urban jungle!
Ford dropped the ball on that one, and a fully loaded...
That's a shame, sorry to hear about the poor service. Nothing like setting you back 2-and-a-half weeks in the queue unnecessarily. If Alto Blue had not been an option, I would have considered Carbonized Grey, Iconic Silver or Rapid Red. Never been a fan of white or black vehicles in any make...
I've hummed and hawed about it but have decided nope, I'm waiting for EXACTLY what I want even if it means a mid-summer delivery! I tend to keep my vehicles for a decade or more (some as long as two decades) so as much as I want to go play in the snow and the mountains with my new Badlands...
I don't think it's a question of "easier or harder", it's simply a matter of preference. I clearly loved the BS Badlands enough to commit to a purchase even with its modern fittings, but I DEFINITELY would prefer a gear shift handle. I'm 50 and every vehicle I've had has had a gear shift I...
Official Ford notice:

Affected 2021 Ford Bronco Sport vehicles were produced with rear suspension modules that may not be fully secured to the subframe. Rear suspension modules with loose or missing bolts may...
Wonder if there is much difference between Canadian orders and US orders? I ordered mine on January 26th, dealer confirmed submission into the system same day, no build date yet at all. At least I got confirmation that the order was in the system.
Freezing our butts off up in Alberta. Been minus bazillion here for what seems like weeks...looking forward to a temperature reprieve! Maybe I’ll get my Badlands in time for summer temps ?
Your dealer shouldn't have told you the Bronco Sport was built in the USA...because it's built at their Hermosillo, Mexico plant. It's been delivering the quality Ford Fusion and its cousin the Lincoln MKZ for more than a decade now, so I'm not concerned about quality.
Fellow Canuck here...ordered mine mid-January and dealer still doesn't even have any kind of a confirmation back from Ford! Of course, I apparently went and picked the most rare colour and a slew of options, so I'm no doubt at the back of the supply chain bus!! Probably 4-6 months before I see...
I couldn't believe how brutal the headroom was in the Jeep Trailhawk and the Toyota 4Runner. I'm 6'3" and even with the moonroof, my hair isn't touching the top of the Bronco Sport. And the floor is deeper too which makes for way more comfortable upright seating. I love the 4Runners and the...
Agree with all the posts here. I knew exactly what I was ordering after my two test drives. I wanted a vehicle that had all the horsepower, interior creature comforts and smooth(ish) ride of a unibody CUV...but also something that allowed me to get into places I'd never go with a Mazda CX-9...
Looks sharp to me, but could never install one on mine. I'm 6'3" and while the Baby Bronc is super comfortable for me to drive...my biggest annoyance was the inability to see stoplights from the front row. The roofline combined with my height makes for a big blind spot that I have to duck...
Very nice, is that the one from Cochrane Ford? I took it for two test drives (both with huge grins on my face) before confidently putting in my factory order. Probably should have just grabbed that one as now you're enjoying it while I wait for months for mine to be built and delivered!
LOL, I'm sure my wife will have divorced me long before I take delivery. Every day it's all I can talk about... researching tires, accessories, trailers, off-road trail excursions, this forum, etc. Hopefully by the time I can actually pick it up and drive it, the novelty will have ratcheted...
