    What are the purpose of the front splash guards?

    First off, the front "splash gaurds" for lack of a better word, are on all BS, minus the Badlands trim which has a 2.0L, not the 1.5L. My Guess is that Ford was trying to squeak out every last bit of gas mileage out of the 1.5L....Since the Badlands sells at much lower numbers and the gas...

    FordPass issues

    I do my own oil changes and tire rotations....I always go to the Service History section of the Ford APP and I'm usually able to select what I did and even upload receipts. Until last week, and it wasn't even available to add your own.....I gave it a couple days and BOOM, I was able to add my...

    2023 Bronco Wildtrak! Tried to buy it…a no go.

    Exactly, and that's what the dealer in my area is doing.

    2023 Bronco Wildtrak! Tried to buy it…a no go.

    I think a lot of dealers get away with the markup because the Bronco was listed for MSRP on their website....Not till you go to buy it they verbally tell you its 10K over?! I don't even think that's legal?? Point of this whole thread was the mark up made it not worth it at all to me...

    Painted Roof OB Badlands

    The way I read that article is that Carbonized Grey is not longer an option?? It just mentions Shadow Black..... Even though the build and price shows CG still... Probably a typo. And as others have said, If you look at mine (when you open the hatch), you will see that the CG roof is an...

    2023 Bronco Wildtrak! Tried to buy it…a no go.

    What's crazy is I am so glad I didn't pay the 5K mark-up they wanted on my Badlands Sport I have now....This mark-up will turn south real quick when interest rates stay at 6-9%......IDK....I guess some people want a Bronco that bad....Not me....

    2023 Bronco Wildtrak! Tried to buy it…a no go.

    It’s no Wildtrack by any means, but after leaving the dealer I went up in the woods and took my Badlands Sport down some deepish snow trails no problem. Plus Bronzesmoke Metrallic is a 22’ only color and it seems a Carbonized Grey roof is no longer available….So I have a rare color combo….one...

    2023 Bronco Wildtrak! Tried to buy it…a no go.

    Nailed it! The dealer came down to $4K over sticker...... But my Badlands is just more comfortable and the interior room on the inside is really not that much bigger on the Bronco....on the outside yes its huge! I really wanted the Wildtrack because the top fully comes off. But like I said in my...

    2023 Bronco Wildtrak! Tried to buy it…a no go.

    Ohh agreed! Apparently they got in an Outer Banks model (looked like a Barbie jeep to me) with the Lux package and my salesman pointed out to me that the sold it for 10K over that day as well because apparently the Lux package is hard to get.....no thanks.

    Florence, Oregon ATV dunes in Bronco Sport Badlands!

    Yeah definitely sounds like I did, TBH I wasn't paying full attention to the traction control....maybe that's why it felt more bogged down?! Either way it was a hoot to drive on the ocean and different ATV trails.

    To easily get to the ocean, you go to the very end of the South Jetty road, at the stop sign, turn left. You will enter a parking lot.....kind of go to the right and a flat rocky/sandy trail will start and take you to the water. I went to Florence Motor Sports and they had they attachment ($18)...

    Yeah, Agreed! Front bumper removal is not easy on the BS.... At all.....

    2023 Bronco Wildtrak! Tried to buy it…a no go.

    First off, I am not trying to put down the Bronco and say the Sport is a superior vehicle…..this is just my experience of trying to make a deal on a new Bronco/ trying to trade in my Badlands Sport. My dealer did get in a 2023 Bronco Wiltrack, no options, they come with a mid package. Race Red...

    lower front Bumper trim

    That trim is standard on the Badlands, I'm assuming its swappable to non Badlands assuming the front bumper is the same?

    My experiences with my 2022 Bronco Sport Badlands after 1 year and 11,100 miles

    Nice write up! Agree with you about the seats too being 6'3' and all...not a deal breaker for me though since they are otherwise comfortable...I do wish the seat bottoms tilted...that would help! I've noticed huge disparities in my gas mileage with my roof rack full loaded!... If I go 55-60 I...

    Florence, Oregon ATV dunes in Bronco Sport Badlands!

    Technically speaking, I really don't know the differences between the two modes. The two modes seemed similar to me.... EXCEPT sand mode definitely felt like it kept the engine power lower, would not let you go very fast....like when trying to gain speed on a sand hill. Vrs Mud and Ruts allowed...
