Yeah I agree with you 100%. To each their own... but for me after doing the research without a doubt the Badlands trim is the only Bronco Sport that I could purchase that wouldn't come with buyers remorse attached.
I just got super lucky in finding one close by exactly how I wanted it and was...
Makes sense... I certainly wouldn't buy a vehicle that was missing options that I wanted. I have the 360+ but haven't used it yet... so far just been driving around city streets. That will change after I pick her up from the PPF detail shop tomorrow.
Yeah I hear ya. For me another reason I...
Well yeah.... ? ? ? I just wanted to hear someone say "You know, I do regret getting the 1.5L" because I think all I've seen from non-Badlands owners since I arrived on these forums is how great the 1.5L is...
... I never even considered it though. Every review I saw said go Badlands or go...
Oh most definitely. I don't have any regrets about leaving Dodge when I did. The Challenger was a great ride but I wanted to move on to a more off-road capable vehicle that could do well in the snow... and here I am. I love the look of the new Bronco's just as much as I loved the look of the...
It's definitely happening with Dodge as well. I drove a V8 Challenger for 7+ years prior to trading it on this Badlands and over on those forums people are experiencing the same type delays ordering Challengers... and it's going to be even more of a shitshow because 2023 is the final year.
I...
Yep... I paid a small markup on mine... which even though it sucks I was just like "whatever" because if I didn't buy this one someone else would. I got good trade value and paid $0 in sales tax... so it all evens out. An extra $2k wasn''t a dealbreaker because this Badlands is specced and...
Good luck with it. I can definitely feel the frustration. It's completely random. My buddy bought a truck and flew across the country and drove it back because it was the only one out there like what he wanted.
Imagine my surprise when I threw this one together on the build side and did a...
For me it just boils down to wanting the 2.0L engine in a vehicle loaded with options as a daily driver.
This one came in to a local dealer and I grabbed it before someone else did. It had everything I would have added if I ordered and was the perfect color... so I bought it.
Lots of on and...
The entire ordering process is a shitshow... and that's why I didn't hesitate to buy this one straight off the lot 2 days after it arrived at the dealer. I think I got super lucky... finding one at a dealer 5 miles away with all the options I'd have selected with an order.
Seen too many...
I was going to order a Bronco Sport Badlands... then I saw this fully loaded one at a dealership 5 miles from my home.
What are the odds?
It was the perfect color too... gray just like the PNW clouds.
Couldn't say no. When it had every option I would have chosen via the build website I saw...
I dropped her off this morning for paint correction... full frontal PPF including ABCD pillars and roof crown... plus ceramic coating along with tinting the front windows to match the rest of the vehicle and throwing in a windshield strip.
She has 400 miles on her and hasn't seen anything but...
Thanks... and yeah... I had a good idea... but wasn't totally sure. The videos helped a whole lot and once I saw that it was no biggie.
The included instructions IMO could have been done better but it is what it is.
Good to go. ?
OEM mudflaps and floor mats installed.
I think what I like most about this vehicle is the lack of carpeting.
She goes into the shop tomorrow for 4 days for full frontal PPF along with a ceramic coat.
Yeah I was definitely overthinking it... for some reason I had it burned into my brain that there was something behind the trim that I could drill into and mess the whole thing up. I thought this way because I felt behind it and felt what I thought were the same rubber plugs that are used...
Yes now that I see these videos it makes a lot more sense. I thought it was something like that but seeing the process just made it a whole lot easier to comprehend.
What can I say... I'm all about the visuals. ??
Excellent. Thank you very much for those. As said it makes a lot more...
Thanks for the recommendation.
Yeah I'm gonna do the same. The dealer tried to sell me so much 3rd party BS when I made the purchase... I'm only interested in the Ford ESP.
Ok. Will give it a whirl. Busy tomorrow so won’t get a chance til Monday. Car is going into shop on Tuesday morning for PPF and coating and want to have this done by then.
Will post back. Thanks for all the responses. ?
Not totally sure but it felt like 3 plastic plugs were behind the trim to hold the soft liner.
I feel like I’m going in circles. The rear had a circular frame with holes… I popped out the plugs… installed metal clips…. Installed screws.
Assuming same deal here… but black trim is blocking the...
