What did you own before your Bronco Sport?

I trade in my 2019 Ram 1500 classic.

Buick Regal TourX. Not a lot of wagons around! Ended renting a bronco sport during one of my work trips and really liked it. The regal was rearended so I added Bronco Sport to my vehicle search. Ended up finding a badlands with the same named package, 2.0L really fits the bill and its great for the snow.
Surprisingly the Regal Tourx has a big skid plate on the front, heavier duty than many of the Z71 trucks I had lol... also had torque vectoring diff, and a 2.0L turbo. Was perfect for send it moments over plow banks and occasional trips on dirt. Baby Bronco the perfect replacement/upgrade.

That's a lot of snow I was going to ask where you live but it looks like Buffalo, NY i would imagine you have a bunch of snow on the ground now. I live in Northeast, Ohio an hour Northeast of me had 60" inches of snow last weekend.

2003 JEEP Wrangler. We bought it new in November 2003 and drove it from Austin to DC the next month to spend Christmas with our daughter that was assigned to the Pentagon.

Actually we still have the Wrangler. It has 115K miles on it and still fires up and goes anywhere we want to take it. We've had it so long I'm not sure I can sell it.

Yeah Buffalo, NY. That picture of the Regal was from the prior year winter (maybe prior prior).

Living south of the City now... so really find myself in the snow! The Sport drove itself right out of the last bad storm and through the end of driveway easily. No more maneuvering the blower around the car to make a path when its over the bumper! Just drive it out! Slippery mode is actually really intelligent, first vehicle I've owned where I didn't feel like traction control was designed to get you stuck. Honestly just digs in, no slip once its gets that first lurch and very planted.

Planning to have one of the garage queens stored elsewhere or sold for next year and tuck it inside.

Was actually intresting this last couple snow falls. Had a rental GMC terrain during the car search. It had a little mountain mode that did alright in the snow but nothing like this. Was really nice having the back to back comparison.

Literally plowed its way out!

Short time owning, really is my favorite daily driver next to the V8 Colorado I had years ago. Sold it because I started making long distance drives at that thing with 4:10's and 4 speed would get 15mpg... always.. towing, city, highway.. 15 lol.

Damn that's a lot of Snow i hate the snow now that i'm 57 especially when i had to borrow the neighbors snow blower once when mine wouldn't start.It does now after i bought a new carb for it,it started in the spring.I tried cleaning the carb out but it didn't help not sure what was wrong with it.FWIW i loved the snow when i was in HS and i was younger just not anymore messy snow and the cold isn't for me. Glad to hear you BS goes good in the Snow especially where you Live.

What are your Garage Queens?

98 Formula with a 408 Stroker and 05' CTS-V V is mostly stock.

Can't confirm or deny if the Bronco Sport now has a tune, but if it did I would say the transmission shifts with the slip taken out are great and sucker squats hard. Local tuner made a great tune when these first came out.

my Bronco sport replace a 2010 ford fusion.

 

[Rick58]

5 Explorers (3 2nd Gens and 2 3rd Gens) and then a couple GMCs.
2 of the 2nd Gens, both '98s.

One of the 3rd Gens, never made any timing chain noise then just blew up without warning one day.

2020 Terrain SLE Elevation. My Christmas present to me last year. I traded it in for the BS.

Ford gave me 7k trade in for my 2012 Nissan Rogue. It had 92k miles on it and I wanted to get rid of it before the infamous CVT failure.

 

[MIHeritage]

My first car is a 1995 Oldsmobile cutlass supreme convertible! I bought that at 15 in 2008 and still have that one today!

My second car was a 2010 Ford Focus S in 2011, nice car, but hated it in winter!

Then in 2012, I bought a brand new ford focus SE. I still see it around every once in a while! A little worse for wear, and rocking Taurus wheels!

Then in 2015, I decided that I wanted Awd, and purchased a 2013 Ford Escape Titanium with around 30k miles! I worked two jobs and finished college and moved to Colorado with it!

In 2017, I purchased a 2005 Lexus LX470 1 owner with 123k miles and had a blast with this one! I still miss this one sometimes! This thing took me everywhere!! Best road trip vehicle, apart from the gas! But it went to a great home! Sold that in the beginning of 24

Then while I was waiting for a Ford Escape that took way to much time to get built and shipped! Photo provided below after it arrived on the dealer lot! I found my Gently used Bronco Sport Heritage Limited with 3k miles!

Love my Bronco so far! Glad it worked out the way it did! Lots of plans for future additions to it!

I drove this 2008 silverado for 6 years before my BS BL, it was my newest truck by 20 years over the others and possibly the worst ?
A/C only worked in winter (Canadian over here), heat only worked in summer, 290 000km rough kilometers, rats building nest in the seats, and it lost anywhere from 1 to 3lbs in rust as it jiggled down the road daily....
And yet I still loved that beast as a tool.
Happy as hell with my Bronco Sport but there's something special about a truck you can treat like an old hammer.
