  1. Consumer Reports pans the Sport in the latest issue.

    The two "dirt roads" I've taken my FE on I bet most if not all the other SUVs on the list would struggle. I think the rear locking capability sets the Badlands and FEs in a category they haven't come up with yet.
  2. How much would you sell your Bronco Sport for?

    I've added some stuff to my FE so it would have to be 50 at least then I'd get a full-size Bronco.
  3. Brand new with a question

    That was one of my first things to include next to the spare tire. Battery ever dies hopefully will be able to not get stranded.
  4. Poll: How did you buy your Bronco Sport?

    I put down a deposit for a Badlands at local dealer in January. In April I sent out emails to multiple local dealers (100 mile radius), Internet sales manager contacted me prior to business hours and sold me a First Edition. Everything done online, went to dealer; 10 minutes in finance office...
  5. Engine replaced for bent crank sensor @ 2700 miles

    Hope it was at least a 2021 rebuild You still have a lot of warranty left so I would not hesitate taking it back to the dealer at the slightest rough running or unusual vibration. Wonder if they could upgrade the 1.5 for the 2.0?
  6. Off-Roading Poll

    I was in sand on a dirt road, put my First Edition into Sand Mode and the back end was swinging out like I was drifting, so I think Traction Control is disabled in sand mode. Slow is ok, but fast in turns not so much.
  7. Off-Roading Poll

    I ran 3N14 (Coxey truck trail), from Apple Valley to Fawnskin. A perfect match for the Badlands or First Edition which I have. Was a lot of fun.
  8. Trade in

    I feel I totally got lucky. Even though I paid sticker. I got $710 off which I guess was some form of rebates, financing was .09% too which is nice. Those who put money down on a build should be locked in for the amount listed on your build. If there was special financing included with your...
  9. Trade in

    Tried to trade in my 2014 Focus ST with 56K miles, but the dealer only offered me $10K. The salesperson I was working with suggested I take it to Carmax which I did and got $13k. Came and picked me up in the Bronco I purchased. A little extra work for a $3K difference was worth it. Carmax was...
  10. Anyone installing CB / HAM radio?

    Have a Yaesu FTM400 kept in a plastic ammo can. Drilled out holes for cables etc. Kept portable as it is also my base station. Had stereo shop run power wire through the firewall. Also have a portable Midland CB that can be used as walkie or connected to power point with external antenna.
  11. New Bronco Sport Owners Break In Period

    Where I live the speed limit is 70 on the interstate and everyone driving 80+. Yesterday I was driving route 66 and had to pass slower cars a couple of times. I came from a Focus ST and have to say the 2 liter in the Bronco is impressive. Not missing the standard transmission in traffic jams...
  12. I got my First Edition on Friday

    Some dealers are more technology prepared than others I guess. I'm from Yorktown Va.
  13. New Owner: Accessories and more!

    I did a 3-mile dirt road in the desert and drove a 30 mile stretch of route 66. It got very dirty from dust and the grill caught a lot of bugs. Be nice to get a screen or something for the grill when highway driving.
  14. I got my First Edition on Friday

    Got my Sport First Edition at MSRP from the dealer here in SOCAL. Did all of the paperwork online, spent 10 minutes in the Finance dept. drove it home. I also didn't get the Cross Bars, but when I called the dealer they shipped them out the next day.
  15. Rock ding on the windshield yet?

    driving from the dealer after purchase. Got hit with a small rock that chipped the hood and also caused a little nick in the windshield. It is small and not bad so I think I'm good for now. Got a hood protector installed to help mitigate any future "small" rocks. But it isn't going to stop the...
  16. 4WD Fault Service Required warming

    Yea, that doesn't sound right. What I would do though is; using all the GOAT modes, and maybe it will correct the error.
  17. Tires way overinflated at delivery

    Mine 38 and 39 upon delivery, but the Falkens say max psi is 51. I haven't reduced it yet but will eventually.
  18. Off Road Kit recommendations?

    I have been ordering stuff on Amazon. Got the recovery kit with a tow strap and hitch pull bar. Fire extinguisher, first aid kit, battery jump box, tent, and sleeping bag. Shovel next on my list. I used OffRoad club forums to see their required equipment. Not planning any overnight stuff but...
  19. Paint Issues

    Driving home from the dealer(Just bought it) I heard the rock.. didn't notice until next day chip on the hood and a small spot on the windshield. I got touch up paint for the chip on the hood. Just to keep from getting rust and it is small and difficult to see unless you're looking for it...
