The cost difference buys you a better drivetrain.True but for 90% Highway driving do you think the Badlands is really needed and worth the extra cost?
It cruises effortlessly on the highway or in mountain passes and never seems to lack power. It also comes with features that owners of 1.5's wish they had or want to add. It also has more offroad capability if needed or not and can tow more if required.
Using this board as an example, the 1.5"s seem to have more issues (water pumps, RDU's) not to say the 2.0's are without issue, my Badlands had electrical issues caused by the battery, others have had the same.
Some here have gone from a 1.5 to a 2.0 and are happy they did, I have not seen a post where someone went from a 2.0 to 1.5 model.
If the OP is really interested in purchasing a Sport they should weigh the pros and con's of the various trim levels and read some owners experiences and then be able to choose what the best fit will be.
