On it's way to Carvana in return for a VERY good price. (I really miss it though, at least till it gets really hot in the summer)

Ford really hit a home run with the S550 Mustang redesign.

What made you go to the dark side?

FJ Cruiser had 495,000km (307,000Mi) and the Civic had 289,000km (180,000Mi). Both needed considerable work done so I decided to trade both in for the Bronco Sport.

Was considering a 2013-2018 RAV4 as they have the centre locking diff but was unable to find one that I liked so, I went with the Bronco Sport.

Noticed you drove a Ford Ranger as well. I'm planning on trading my 22 Ranger Lariat Scab 4x4 for a 23 Badlands. What made you jump from the Ranger to the Bronco Sport? I'm honestly excited for the eruption green. My Ranger is in a metallic grey with black appearance package. Blends right in so some color is surely welcomed.

I traded the Escapee for the Bronco Sport, the original plan was to trade the Ranger for the big Bronco, and with the options you couldn't have we kept the Ranger. I wouldn't of traded the Ranger for the Bronco Sport.

Holy cow it's a long list especially if I include the vehicle my wife drives, but I'll just list the ones I drove primarily. I'm 51. First car was a 1980 chevy Citation in 1990. Then an 86 Nissan 200SX, 95 Camaro, 96 Camaro, 98 S-10, '00 Mustang, 01 Mustang GT, 95 Chevy Blazer (got married and needed to save money for buying a house), 00 Taurus, 05 Mazda Tribute (at this time wife and I just had the one car as we traded the taurus and her 98 accord). Having one car was difficult so I got a 97 Dodge Dakota (in magenta, kind of a purple. only year they offered it), 02 Dakota, 05 Legacy GT, 12 Civic, 13 Civic, 14 Mustang, 16 Focus, 18 Civic, 19 Ranger and now 21 Bronco sport. Pretty much for the first time I have a vehicle that meets all my needs so I plan on keeping it until it, or I die. Plus i really love it more than any other car I've had.

Did you keep trading around until you got the Heritage Limited?

I’m liking my Big Bend but I do wish it had the convenience package. I came from an Accord EX-L so I was kind of used to some extras. But it looks like some options I was wanting don’t even exist with the BS.

Did you keep trading around until you got the Heritage Limited?

No, I never planned on trading any. Just during the pandemic, I kept getting stupid offers and I accepted them. One from Carvana, one from Carmax, one from my dealership and one from a crazy person that offered me thousands before I even sat in the Bronco.
