30,000 flawless miles on my 21 Bronco Sport Badlands. Love it!! Recently replaced the Falken Wildpeak AT3W's with Maxxis Razr AT Tires which so far are working great. Need a few tougher off-road tests to compare but I think they'll be much better with the tread they have. The OE Falkens had good traction but not very durable with two flats. MPG gradually got better and better with a lifetime average now around 28 mpg with frequent tanks around 30 mpg. I know some people don't believe the 2.0 can get that mileage but I consistently get that over and over, hand calculated. Hard to complain about a vehicle that is a little goat off-road, has very good power and gets great mileage.

Yeah I got 30 mpg on road trip with back seats folded down full of luggage. And mine is plenty quick a lot of power out of 2.0. As a reference my old "14 CRV with the purr putt turd gutless engine got less mog. So far very impressed with mine.

I have the same thing on the window controls. I’m going in for my 10k service Saturday and will be pointing that out.

I don’t have the factory charger. I had an OB before my 2021 BL and didn’t like the charger. I have a 19$ aftermarket in my BL (no tech package) and it is way better. Other than that.. I have zero issues.

I have no problem believe that, especially given where you live. These are boxy cars, so wind resistance will be the biggest factor in fuel economy. The air is thinner where you live, so you get less wind resistance all the time.

I bet if you drive down here to the flatlands for a tank or two your mileage will fall back to the 26-28 most people report.

I also use ethanol free gas so my experience is that is worth another 1-2 mpg.
