Say Hello and Introduce Yourself! ?

[kshaw]

Had to give up my great 2004 Ford Escape (it was time) and was excited that the Bronco Sport had a similar profile (unlike the newer Escapes). I am glad to introduce Gamera, which I hope to get me through another 15+ years. Was looking for another blue Ford, but I could not resist my favorite color.

Beautiful! Is that a ceramic coat?

Howdy from Dallas, Texas. Wife’s new ride picked up (traded 2022 Subaru Outback). Already added factory splash guards, Autostop Eliminator, and tinted the back windows darker.

Welcome, Deron! That's a beautiful Bronco you've got there.

Nope could not afford that, just new, but hope the color lasts as long as my previous Escape.

Hello all. I joined the forum to get some info about Bronco Sports because I am about to order one. I am days away from ordering a 2024 Azure Gray Ebony Roast Outer Banks for my new daily driver. My current DD is a 2013 Focus SE with 135K. Time for an upgrade.

I little about me. I'm 51, have 2 Foxbody Mustangs, a '22 F250 7.3 Godzilla and a '32 Ford Tudor Sedan That is getting the mild hot rod treatment. My Father owned a small town Ford dealership for most of my life before closing up shop and retiring during the great recession. I bleed Ford blue.

Looking forward to learning some stuff.

Welcome! I had owned a '21 BL as a DD for almost 4 years, and I am happy with it so far. Today I turned 56 and with a lumbar fusion. Not bumppy or stiff on the road, but able to visit the trails every now and then without any problem. Enjoy...

Love that coupe! And a big block no less.

Hello everyone. I rejoined the BS club today with the purchase of a 2024 BS Badlands in Hot Pepper Red. We previously had a 2022 BS OBX but traded it in for my wife's Escape Hybrid. First thing I'm swapping is the Pirelli tires.

I think you will find the 2.0 and off road chops quite satisfying. The gas milage, perhaps not so much compared to the 1.5.

I wouldn't rely on the system-computed number all that much. Most report that figure as optimistic. To get the most accurate fuel economy figure fill up and reset your trip meter. Drive the car far enough to use at least three tanks of gas while keeping track of how much fuel you put in. After the third fill, divide the number of miles on the trip meter by the number of gallons you put in the car. This ensures you average out all the many, many factors that can affect fuel economy.

Lastly, I wouldn't get too concerned about fuel economy until your engine has fully broken in. Perform the above procedure after you have at least 1,000 miles on the ODO.
