Bronco Sport

[roots66]

Are there any other BS owners out there? If so, post your adventures and ideas here.

We just purchased a '22 Badlands with 48k on the clock and plan to use it for mostly commuting to/from work. However, we will be doing a lot of overlanding & off-roading in it as well, hence the reason we opted for the Badlands model. Looks like it was never off the road before, but if it can do this in the video below, I think we're going to be ok with anything we put it through.

Nice rig.....and Yes. It can do what is posted in the video. That company that made the video did break something in another video but it was doing something really extreme. For overlanding, it's an ideal platform. Great on gas, compact to get around smaller roads. I love them!

Just don't get in a accident with it. DANGEROUS.

Nice rig! How are you liking it so far? My father has been shopping one for a while. He can’t decide if he rather have a smaller SUV or a small pickup. I was REALLY impressed with the one we test drove!

Safety Ratings and Features
The Bronco Sport impressed in IIHS safety testing; it earned a 2022 Top Safety Pick+ award. Along those lines, it's received the NHTSA's five-star overall safety score—the best possible—every year since its introduction. Ford is generous with active safety features, too, including the Ford CoPilot 360 suite (adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane keep assist, and automatic high-beams) as standard. It's possible Ford could eventually add its Blue Cruise hands-free driving system, but that would entail equipping the Bronco Sport with loads of new cameras and sensors.

It earned 9.9 out of 10 rating for safety.

It's actually safer than your 4Runner....

should do some research before making untrue claims.

Loving it so far. Surprisingly roomier on the inside than you'd think. Great mileage in Eco mode back and forth to work (see pic). We'll see how that changes on our trip to Colorado Springs late next week with 4 adults, a dog and roofbox. Only downside for me is the towing capacity at only 2200 lbs. Should have been at least 3k IMHO. But, we'll find the right camper for it at some point.

We rented one thru Turo last fall. Traveled the Canadian Rockies, High River, Kootenay NP, Banff NP, Yoho NP, Golden, Radium Springs, Invermere then back to Calgary. Did lots of hiking and running the trails.
Bronco was a pleasure to drive in all conditions, great fuel economy, very comfortable, even on long rides, which was a major concern with the Wifes back issues. With the back seats down there was plenty of room for our gear.
