Thanks for your terrific vehicle reviews. I'm a older guy and love your old school type reviews. I never miss any of your reviews. Thanks for your great work.
You do realize that dealers have to _buy_ the cars they sell from the manufacturer, right? And that their margins on new car sales are pretty slim, right?
Nobody wants to see daytime running lights! Or super bright lights at night. Automakers please take it down a notch. In the day i enjoy “not” seeing lights. At night nobody needs to call batman with their headlamps
I have a ‘21 BS First Edition Area 51 I replaced the side blanks with an after market side LED marker. Does amber and white. So it now has a function. DTRL- white Turn signal -amber Hazards - amber Also thanks for the “hidden” feature dropping down the cargo floor…never knew that and I don’t remember reading that in the manual😮😅 My family has been watching you since you did the 21 BS and has since refer to cargo space in food sizes and amounts.😂 Love your content Joe and your wife’s “eye” through the camera. I could just image what faces she was making when you talking about “parking”😂.
Hi Joe, Great video, however, Big Bend is the base for 2024, Badlands is the top trim with the 2.0 Ecoboost. We have a ‘23 Outer Banks and so far we love it. Ours does have a sunroof, but bumped up final price to just over $41,000.
Good news guys for 2025 the bronco sport will be getting the sync 4 system with the bigger 12inch screen it will be a upgrade from the sync 3 8inch screen and also great video guys ❤
You're awesome dude . Love your intro and your reviews. You're entertaining not boring. I've got a 2022 sport big bend and so far it's been a good vehicle and hopefully it's going to be a winner for the long haul . Thanks for the great video. 👍👍
Even though the styling and amenities beat the Trailblazer, I'm not paying that much for a 3 cyl vehicle. The Trailblazer is way less expensive with the 3 cyl. JMO.
The Trailblazer has a lot less power and not as good transmission. The Bronco Sport is actually a decent light off roader while the Trailblazer does not appear to be. The Sport is worth the extra money and I'd just go for the 2.0 turbo.
I just purchased a 2024 Big Bend, it has the 1.5 Ecoboost with 8 speed. Will need to get creative with adding an additional length cord (or flanged inlet receptacle) for the head bolt heater plug.
Crazy how the price increased over the 2021. My First Edition was the price of this Outerbanks and has more off-road capabilities, a sun roof, and E-lockiing rear. The 2.0 is also preppy. Compared to my 14 Focus ST. I think it would be pretty even in a race especially with the full time 4X4 getting a better launch.
Living in NYC, it wasnt too difficult to opt for this as opposed to the big Bronco. Selling my Wrangler, of course I wanted the big boy but I couldn't justify the size and bad MPG living in the city. Sadly, due to inflation this model year is $4k more than I paid for a new 2022 Outer Banks with everything plus the moon roof. Averaging about 26 MPG as a daily driver. The major complaint other than the smaller engine is the doors don't open at a full 90° angle, making it a tighter squeeze when getting in or out the back seats. Other than that, I am seriously considering the 2025 model that is rumored to also come in a Hybrid along with the bigger screen and Sync 4 that was already mentioned. Great review as always!
OK, I have never enjoyed a car review more! Anybody who measures space by Twinkies and little Debbie’s is right up my alley! Thank you for the review. I will be going to do a test drive today!
I love Broncos but not this. I know the Sport is a daily driving oriented trim but it's very expensive. If I had to buy a Bronco it would be one of the big guys.
Not just expensive but a crappy interior for the price. It is fine to keep it utilitarian and basic but the materials for the price are awful. Also, the chip shortage has gotten a lot better, time to update sync so you can give us that full screen.
@@benven2161 The 1.5 has adequate power if you only drive in the city stop light to stop light. It is underpowered when getting on the highway or passing other cars at highway speeds. 1.5 has water pump, cracked fuel injectors and battery issues since they are not AGM style batteries from the factory. The 1.5 also shakes like a Harley when idling since it is not balanced. You can feel the shaking in the front seats, steering wheel and dash. The 2.0 would not only solve all of these issues, but would also provide a better ride quality since there is more weight on the front end. 2.0 4 cylinder all day everyday when compared to the 1.5 3 cylinder
@raitirides you forgot the coolest one on this review. There is a bottle opener on the left side of the trunk. Also, the Badlands is the highest trim, big bend is the new low trim or close to base model. Great review though. I bought one recently and your review helped
I wish you were correct, Joe, but you can't get the 2.0 liter Ecoboost engine unless you spring for the Badlands edition.Which makes no sense to me, as I would love that engine in the Outer Banks (ie, without all the off-road stuff). Call your contacts at Ford and set them straight! Love your stuff, btw...
I do like this Bronco Sport Joe, it does need a bigger screen and atleast a optional digital instrumentation. I would also make a hybrid powertrain available like the one in the Escape
I really like the Bronco Sport but I just don’t see the value for the money. There’s simply no excuse for them to still have sync 3 when their upgraded system has. Even out for several years now. Also, seeing as how this is basically the more “rugged” Escape they should have at minimum a hybrid option if not a plugin option.
I just got a 2021 big bend love it! Kinda hope they don’t refresh this design for a while because it’s so sick looking… What’s your thoughts on Ford keeping this design? Do you think the 25 model year will look the same?
Speaking of Broncos, the Motor City Madman Ted Nugent has a first generation Bronco, of which he's very proud. 😊 As for the tripod engine, I guess it's OK, but I'd have to experience it in person. 40K is not that shocking anymore. There are worse MSRP's. Instead of Bon Jovi music, I would que up "Cat Scratch Fever" or "Free For All", speaking of Uncle Ted. Good looking color combo on this.
Definitely want my dad to get a new bronco sport heritage in the next yr or so. He’s had his compact ford sedan for a long time but has some issues and too low clearance, needs something a little more lift and space inside plus similar power and performance like his current car, the current one has a 2 liter turbo eco boost engine, have a feeling it won’t be the 2 liter due to his budget, guessing the 1.5 liter engine, does it perform as well as the 2 liter? Just curious
I have a 2022 big bend with an upgrade package and it has a 1.5 litre turbo and it has enough power to get the job done easily with 30 mpg . And with the tow package I can pull a small trailer with a zero turn mower on it and not even know it is back there. I bought it for winter weather and it's not even snowed since here in Ohio lol.
I like the Bronco Sport but a 3 cylinder. News flash 3 bangers went out with the Geo Metro. Not a fan of these mini bike motors. But the colors and packages are really nice. Still considering getting one but I would get the Big Bend.
I think you kept mentioning the Big Bend package for more power and more capability when it is actually the Badlands package that gives you the extras. But do like the Bronco Sport and in fact have my 2nd one in my garage. Both of which are the Outer Banks.
The Bronco and Trailblazer are 2 very different vehicles at 2 very different price points. Both are good vehicles but for my money I’d go with the Trailblazer. I don’t need a large storage space behind the rear seats and I like the smaller size of the Trailblazer, especially in the city. If I was going off road then I would get the Bronco. The trailblazer is better looking inside, by far, and the lack of a sunroof on the Bronco Is a deal breaker for me. TB has a pano sunroof which few subcompacts have. And FYI the TB (maybe on the upper trims) has a 9 speed automatic transmission not a 6 speed tranny as Raiti stated.
How is the road noise? on the Bronco And one quick question about the trail blazer I read where it has a cvt trans now the chevy Trax has a six speed Thanks.
they basically made the Escape appeal to women, and then took the same car, made it look macho and advertised it as such and added an extra $10k to sell to men
40k for that little thing? Come on car market....just come on. Starting price on a Jeep Wrangler is 32k for the sport which will be bigger and more capable than this thing.
At 8:40 in the video, Raiti's says you need to upgrade to the Big Bend for the 4 cylinder. Wrong, the Badlands has the 4 cylinder 2.0 liter. Bad mistake.
I understand the preference for LED in the headlight housing and everywhere else, that being said, can any of them be easily replaced if the LED goes out? LED does eventually fail, and in my Avalon, the entire headlight housing would need to be replaced if even one LED goes out, costing thousands.
I love how you equate the door storage space to how much food you can accommodate.. 😂 Like Twinkies, hot dogs and shakes!❤ Makes my day. Are you really a foodie because you look real good and fit even though it's all twinkies and shakes in your reviews😊 And here I am adding 5 pounds to my waist line just thinking about food!😂 Anyways really good review. 👍👍👍
I love my BMW Z4 but I need to sell it and get a solid offroad vehicle, I don't plan to leave the asphalt but the roads in White Plains NY in Westchester County are so bad, you need very beefy tires and skid plates. I don't know where the absurdly high taxes are going but it ain't fixing the roads. I guess giving free stuff to illegal immigrants is more important in NY than safe roadways.
Seems like the Nissan Rogue is the value leader in SUVs of this size. I mean I know this particular one is supposed to be a good off-roader, but let’s be real, only a tiny portion of buyers are going to use it for that. For this price, I would expect way more power, to tow, and accelerate.
Our driveways are familiar. My ITS and EG BadSquatch Bronco to your CTR and EG Wildtrack. Go up to Bronco Sport Badlands, what I wanted my wife to get, but they were unatainium at the time.
Joe, I really enjoyed your politically correct introduction to this small confusing suv type class of vehicles. I am going to start by saying that it should be illegal or false advertising for them to actually call this thing a bronco. I rented one for a month from enterprise rent a car ,it drove and felt more like a Honda civic than a ford bronco suv. I strongly suggest that anyone looking at buying this one,rents one first, so they don’t get seduced by the name and then find out they got played by the marketing department at ford. If anyone is looking to spend $40,000 on an actual small midsize suv , I would suggest buying a good few year old low mileage used jeep grand Cherokee limited. IMO this mini bronco is a grocery getter or a teenager’s first car. For $40,000 there are lots of better options than this one.
I seriously considered this vehicle but after all the issues with the earlier models, decided against it. Fit and finish, quality of materials not good for a 40k+ vehicle. Bought a 2024 Audi Q3 for 2k more and so happy i did. I see that Ford didn't change the 2024 model much but hopefully they fixed alot of the issues. 3cyl on a 40k+ vehicle???
Yeah, the prices I'm seeing for some of these similar-sized SUVs are getting a bit ridiculous. Like you said, for a few more thousand, you can get a frickin' Audi. It's not just Ford, either. Looked at some Kias online, and while they start low, the better trims get expensive fast. I just can't see paying so much for a Ford, Kia, etc, when Audis and BMWs aren't a ton more.
@jh276 @RaitisRides doesn't make the price. Because if you watch his video he definitely would lower the price to something more reasonable for us under paid, blue collar workers.
Thanks for your terrific vehicle reviews. I'm a older guy and love your old school type reviews. I never miss any of your reviews.
Thanks for your great work.
It’s criminal that dealers charge as much as they do for cars and trucks. Especially a bronco sport Insane. 🤦. Great video as always
You do realize that dealers have to _buy_ the cars they sell from the manufacturer, right? And that their margins on new car sales are pretty slim, right?
Great video… FYI the next step up is the Badlands with the 2.0 liter .. Big Bend is the base model for 2024 with the 1.5 liter
Ford definitely needs to pay @RaitisRides a lot more money for his reviews!!!!!
Also the Badlands is the one that has the additional 1 inch lift! Dude reviewing and he has no clue😂
The Badlands comes standard with a 2 liter turbo, 250hp. There is no option.
I like the looks of this over the Trailblazer.
I agree with you
Nobody wants to see daytime running lights! Or super bright lights at night. Automakers please take it down a notch. In the day i enjoy “not” seeing lights. At night nobody needs to call batman with their headlamps
I like the two tone paint job. Very sharp with the black roof.
Check these out with a color called Area 51, they look fantastic.
I hope 2 tone paint makes a comeback, monochromatic paint is boring.
WAYYY Better than the Trailblazer / Honda HRV. Im actually thinking of buying this car for my dad
That’s so fantastic!
Big Bend is mid level and has the 3 cyl. Badlands is the high end with the 2.0, 4 cyl. There's cubby space under the rear seat as well. Sub'd!
It’s a Ford Escape.
tell 6 inches of snow that😂
@@loopedca Im in TX so no fear of 6 inches of snow lol
I have a ‘21 BS First Edition Area 51
I replaced the side blanks with an after market side LED marker. Does amber and white. So it now has a function.
DTRL- white
Turn signal -amber
Hazards - amber
Also thanks for the “hidden” feature dropping down the cargo floor…never knew that and I don’t remember reading that in the manual😮😅
My family has been watching you since you did the 21 BS and has since refer to cargo space in food sizes and amounts.😂
Love your content Joe and your wife’s “eye” through the camera. I could just image what faces she was making when you talking about “parking”😂.
Your videos are hilarious. I love how you reference snacks in relation to storage locations. Keep it up.
Hi Joe, Great video, however, Big Bend is the base for 2024, Badlands is the top trim with the 2.0 Ecoboost. We have a ‘23 Outer Banks and so far we love it. Ours does have a sunroof, but bumped up final price to just over $41,000.

Good news guys for 2025 the bronco sport will be getting the sync 4 system with the bigger 12inch screen it will be a upgrade from the sync 3 8inch screen and also great video guys ❤
More price increase
Thanks for sharing that great info!
@@ph00ny1 true, but that also means the 2024 models will receive discount when it comes to the end of the year if they are still on the lot
@@alvinyiu They're currently on discounts in most dealerships already
Bronco's are really nice, I remember when they came back a few years ago and loved it.
I'm going Bronco Sport. Already did my test drive and I loved it. Just as you said in the video it's super comfortable inside ❤
That is so wonderful to hear Keisha!
You're awesome dude . Love your intro and your reviews. You're entertaining not boring. I've got a 2022 sport big bend and so far it's been a good vehicle and hopefully it's going to be a winner for the long haul . Thanks for the great video. 👍👍
Thank you, Sir, for the reviews. I purchased a Bronco Sport today and my decision was mainly based on your review.
That is so wonderful to hear Eddie! Congrats my friend!
@@RaitisRides I was able to buy a 'loaner' Bronco Big Bend with 3700 miles, registered as new first time owner with a $6500 discount.
I love it, great mileage compact still learning the safety features be great of you post on this make on the safety features.
this should be $29-30K most
The MSRP on the lowest model starts at $29,795
Too much for junk
Thanks Lori for doing a great job filming these great videos. 👏👍
Even though the styling and amenities beat the Trailblazer, I'm not paying that much for a 3 cyl vehicle. The Trailblazer is way less expensive with the 3 cyl. JMO.
Nothing wrong with a 3 cylinder, but when the asking price is 35K and more then you make a quick pass..........
The Trailblazer has a lot less power and not as good transmission. The Bronco Sport is actually a decent light off roader while the Trailblazer does not appear to be. The Sport is worth the extra money and I'd just go for the 2.0 turbo.
Make a deal. May be incentives as well. CarEdge can help.
Yes of course Joe & I plan to buy one myself.
I can see you in this one!
I actually think this looks better than the full sized Bronco. Just my opinion
The full-sized bronco is styled after the 1st Gen Bronco.
I love the Ford Bronco Sport I love the fake fender vents I think without it, the fender would've looked rather boring.
Great point Luis
@@RaitisRides Yes great point Apostle Joe!
I just purchased a 2024 Big Bend, it has the 1.5 Ecoboost with 8 speed. Will need to get creative with adding an additional length cord (or flanged inlet receptacle) for the head bolt heater plug.
I love all the features of this car. It’s so cool !
Crazy how the price increased over the 2021. My First Edition was the price of this Outerbanks and has more off-road capabilities, a sun roof, and E-lockiing rear. The 2.0 is also preppy.

I appreciate you sharing your insight and perspective on this one.
I read from Ford that the Badlands 2.0 liter is the fastest car Ford makes other than the Mustang 5.0 and the Raptors. 0-60 is like 4.8sec.
Living in NYC, it wasnt too difficult to opt for this as opposed to the big Bronco. Selling my Wrangler, of course I wanted the big boy but I couldn't justify the size and bad MPG living in the city.

Last month I bought a certified 22 OB and I love it
Ford should offer the 2.0 on all trim levels as an option.
They should all just be 2.0
Don’t u mean 2.3? It’s a suv for god sakes
It's not too shabby I guess and it gets the job done too. nice color also.
I love Broncos but not this. I know the Sport is a daily driving oriented trim but it's very expensive. If I had to buy a Bronco it would be one of the big guys.
Not just expensive but a crappy interior for the price. It is fine to keep it utilitarian and basic but the materials for the price are awful. Also, the chip shortage has gotten a lot better, time to update sync so you can give us that full screen.
You can get an aux jack to blue tooth connection so you can play those old mix tapes in your car on your old cassette player
"do people park anymore" hahahaha great question imo
If you are going to get one of these go for the 2.0 4 cylinder. Stay away from the 1.5 3 cylinder
You didn’t know what you’re talking about! The 3 cylinder is a great one!
@@benven2161 The 1.5 has adequate power if you only drive in the city stop light to stop light. It is underpowered when getting on the highway or passing other cars at highway speeds. 1.5 has water pump, cracked fuel injectors and battery issues since they are not AGM style batteries from the factory.

MSRP on this is about $10k too high in my opinion.
Thanks for sharing your honest opinion.
$40k doesn't buy much anymore. I consider this fancy basic transportation. A nice ride is at least $70k.
I wish you were correct, Joe, but you can't get the 2.0 liter Ecoboost engine unless you spring for the Badlands edition.Which makes no sense to me, as I would love that engine in the Outer Banks (ie, without all the off-road stuff). Call your contacts at Ford and set them straight! Love your stuff, btw...
I love my Bronco sport badlands.
I rented a 2023 bronco SPORT BADLANDs once. In sport mode its pretty QUICK. After a week i was ready to be back in MY vehicle. Its cute though😊
😂 I like his personality and sense of humor. Made the video very entertaining to watch.
I got this color today! Looking forward to the ownership!
I'd like to see a bit larger wheels and tires on that. Looks good though. Thanks Joe
Joe, Big Bend is one model above base, then Outer Banks, Badlands is the top model with 2.0 four cylinder turbo..
I do like this Bronco Sport Joe, it does need a bigger screen and atleast a optional digital instrumentation. I would also make a hybrid powertrain available like the one in the Escape
I really like the Bronco Sport but I just don’t see the value for the money. There’s simply no excuse for them to still have sync 3 when their upgraded system has. Even out for several years now. Also, seeing as how this is basically the more “rugged” Escape they should have at minimum a hybrid option if not a plugin option.
I just got a 2021 big bend love it! Kinda hope they don’t refresh this design for a while because it’s so sick looking… What’s your thoughts on Ford keeping this design? Do you think the 25 model year will look the same?
Thanks for sharing that great ownership experience!
Hey, Joe good review however I prefer the bronco raptor in satin black with 22 inch black wheels
😊😊😊
Did u NOTICE it in the BACKGROUND 😂
Somethings just shouldn't happen, like a vehicle with only 3 cylinders.
We love our Bronco Sport! Our daughters love using it!
Blazer vs Bronco... I feel like it's high school in the mid '90's again...
LOL I see what you did there!
Genius!
Yes definitely trying to keep the 90s alive 😆
Speaking of Broncos, the Motor City Madman Ted Nugent has a first generation Bronco, of which he's very proud. 😊 As for the tripod engine, I guess it's OK, but I'd have to experience it in person. 40K is not that shocking anymore. There are worse MSRP's. Instead of Bon Jovi music, I would que up "Cat Scratch Fever" or "Free For All", speaking of Uncle Ted. Good looking color combo on this.
Amazing review Joe.

Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video real true 👍
I like the Bronco Sport but a 3 cylinder. News flash 3 bangers went out with the Geo Metro. Not a fan of these mini bike motors. But the colors and packages are really nice. Still considering getting one but I would get the Big Bend.
Maybe you should try driving one. I have a 2017 Buick encore three cylinder and it's very quick considering it's only three cylinders
Joe, you forgot to show the bottle opener in the rear hatch area, on the right!
How's the road smoothness? And the road noise
No one can cry for Ford when they go out of business in the next decade. If they produce cars like this in 2024, they deserve it
I think you kept mentioning the Big Bend package for more power and more capability when it is actually the Badlands package that gives you the extras. But do like the Bronco Sport and in fact have my 2nd one in my garage. Both of which are the Outer Banks.
I had the base model love it as my first new suv my only compliant that it is tight should of been a mid size like the jeep grand Cherokee
The Bronco and Trailblazer are 2 very different vehicles at 2 very different price points. Both are good vehicles but for my money I’d go with the Trailblazer. I don’t need a large storage space behind the rear seats and I like the smaller size of the Trailblazer, especially in the city. If I was going off road then I would get the Bronco.

This is a Bronco sport, not a Bronco, so it's a direct comparison to a trailblazer you need to educate yourself kid
Can’t believe that Ford did a refresh of their Bronco Sport Outer Banks
They must sell well, I see them everywhere
It is the same since the first model year 2021.
Hi Joe love ur videos..but this one gets a zone.. Badlands version gets the 2.0L 4 banger and the higher ride height..Excellent work to you
7:15 - 7:25 - You just described the current EV movement. 😂
Dealers in the Austin-San Antonio area are showing $34k deals for the loaded Outer Banks.
$40G's ?? needs to be in the lower $30's Dealers near me are sitting on a bunch of them a lot of '23's too.
I agree with you!
Sold. Thanks for review. I’m getting one
This looks so much like the old ford escape just with a few tweaks and changes but man it’s so much like it.
Doesn't look anything like any old Ford escape. You need to educate yourself kid
I almost wish they'd make the top trim with a top trim 3cyl to match, only because I think I3s sound better than I4s.
How is the road noise? on the Bronco And one quick question about the trail blazer I read where it has a cvt trans now the chevy Trax has a six speed Thanks.
Top bronco sport is not Big Ben it is Badlands isn’t it?
they basically made the Escape appeal to women, and then took the same car, made it look macho and advertised it as such and added an extra $10k to sell to men
Exactly. It's nothing more than a Ford Escape with a different body. Same engine, Same issues.
Great review incidentally
40k for that little thing? Come on car market....just come on. Starting price on a Jeep Wrangler is 32k for the sport which will be bigger and more capable than this thing.
At 8:40 in the video, Raiti's says you need to upgrade to the Big Bend for the 4 cylinder. Wrong, the Badlands has the 4 cylinder 2.0 liter. Bad mistake.
I understand the preference for LED in the headlight housing and everywhere else, that being said, can any of them be easily replaced if the LED goes out? LED does eventually fail, and in my Avalon, the entire headlight housing would need to be replaced if even one LED goes out, costing thousands.
They are pricey to replace but last way longer than traditional bulbs.
I love how you equate the door storage space to how much food you can accommodate.. 😂
Like Twinkies, hot dogs and shakes!❤
Makes my day.
Are you really a foodie because you look real good and fit even though it's all twinkies and shakes in your reviews😊
And here I am adding 5 pounds to my waist line just thinking about food!😂
Anyways really good review. 👍👍👍
It’s Not all wheel drive, it’s 4 wheel drive if you don’t know the difference look it up it’s substantially better
It’s a nice looking faux off roader but reliability long term I don’t think made it to the options list
I love my BMW Z4 but I need to sell it and get a solid offroad vehicle, I don't plan to leave the asphalt but the roads in White Plains NY in Westchester County are so bad, you need very beefy tires and skid plates. I don't know where the absurdly high taxes are going but it ain't fixing the roads. I guess giving free stuff to illegal immigrants is more important in NY than safe roadways.
Prices for the 2023 are much lower now. Dealers are trying to sell their inventory and I was able to get a brand new outer banks for $26k
$40,000 + tax title and everything else for a 3 cylinder bronco no way man. Crazy price for not a lot of bronco
Seems like the Nissan Rogue is the value leader in SUVs of this size. I mean I know this particular one is supposed to be a good off-roader, but let’s be real, only a tiny portion of buyers are going to use it for that. For this price, I would expect way more power, to tow, and accelerate.
Love your vids man but ford charging that much for a basic suv is criminal, those should be starting in the lower 20s
Why didn't they center the ford emblem??
Because the Bronco sport emblem is centered. Not hard to understand
You refer to the Big Bend as the top trim. It's actually the Badlands that is the top trim. Love a review of that baby!
Our driveways are familiar. My ITS and EG BadSquatch Bronco to your CTR and EG Wildtrack. Go up to Bronco Sport Badlands, what I wanted my wife to get, but they were unatainium at the time.
Joe,
I really enjoyed your politically correct introduction to this small confusing suv type class of vehicles.
I am going to start by saying that it should be illegal or false advertising for them to actually call this thing a bronco.
I rented one for a month from enterprise rent a car ,it drove and felt more like a Honda civic than a ford bronco suv.
I strongly suggest that anyone looking at buying this one,rents one first, so they don’t get seduced by the name and then find out they got played by the marketing department at ford.
If anyone is looking to spend $40,000 on an actual small midsize suv , I would suggest buying a good few year old low mileage used jeep grand Cherokee limited.
IMO this mini bronco is a grocery getter or a teenager’s first car.
For $40,000 there are lots of better options than this one.
The Trailblazer is no offroad machine. The BS optioned right is very good offroader.
I like the looks of this.
Recently test drove this. I mistakenly thought it'd be like a Truck but it was more of a Jeep. (Rougher Ride)
I seriously considered this vehicle but after all the issues with the earlier models, decided against it. Fit and finish, quality of materials not good for a 40k+ vehicle. Bought a 2024 Audi Q3 for 2k more and so happy i did. I see that Ford didn't change the 2024 model much but hopefully they fixed alot of the issues. 3cyl on a 40k+ vehicle???
What’s your payment on the Audi
@@chocolatewheelchair paid cash, got a $2000 discount off MSRP plus $1000 rebate from Audi.
@@johndixon9551 that’s awesome. Enjoy that truck
Yeah, the prices I'm seeing for some of these similar-sized SUVs are getting a bit ridiculous. Like you said, for a few more thousand, you can get a frickin' Audi. It's not just Ford, either. Looked at some Kias online, and while they start low, the better trims get expensive fast. I just can't see paying so much for a Ford, Kia, etc, when Audis and BMWs aren't a ton more.
Not a truck, it's a station wagon or suv.
Power retracting mirrors ?
I really like the boxy look of these however the front grill/side profile is a bit juvenile.
Do you see that Ford dealership lot? Fords line up competes with all model vehicles. They see a market and they get to designing.
Where do we go for the "8-Soeed" Automatic.. ? Under the hood is a 1.5L turbocharged inline-3 mated to an 8-soeed automatic transmission.
$45K - $55K out the door for a ford bronco...sport...
Things are getting more expensive
Not even a Bronco, this is 2024's version of the Bronco II.
@@RaitisRides right but that price is in Lexus LBX/UX territory... choice is clear.
😳 NOPE!!
@jh276 @RaitisRides doesn't make the price. Because if you watch his video he definitely would lower the price to something more reasonable for us under paid, blue collar workers.
Trim above outer Banks is the badlands not the big bend.
I love the look of these but Ford has been having way too many problems and recalls lately.
For the money I would choose the Bronco Sport. Don't like that antenna stick out like that though.
The Design of the exterior should have been more Retro Style like Jeep did it with the Wrangler.
The Interior is nice 👍🏼
Well I guess technically ford brought retro to full size Bronco
