Anyone else go for the Bronco Sport because of the budget… but still love it?

I just got a 2021 Big Bend Bronco Sport. I went to the dealership thinking I’d get the bigger Bronco, but when I saw the price, I ended up with the Sport. I love it, but a coworker told me it’s not ‘manly’ enough. Doesn’t matter to me, I’m all in on this ride! Anyone else got comments like that?

Sounds like your coworker has some issues with confidence.

Forget what others think. This forum is full of Bronco Sport fans! Welcome, friend! Just keep an eye on the coolant; the water pump can be a bit tricky. Also, stay on top of software updates. Other than that, enjoy the ride!

Thanks for the heads-up! Much appreciated! :handshake::100:

Your coworker sounds insecure. Enjoy your new wheels…

Ignore your coworker. I had a 2021 Big Bend Sport, and it handled off-road just as well as most big trucks. Mud, sand, grass—you name it. I only switched because I found a deal on a bigger one after putting 80k miles on my Sport. Enjoy every bit of your ride… :metal:

I’m all about small cars myself. Got a Fiat 500 and love it. :laughing:

Nice! I got the Bronco, but still love my Fiat 500 too. Best of both worlds…

Nothing wrong with that—my Abarth has taken some serious hits :joy:

Manliness aside, the Bronco Sport is a blast to drive. Good power, great handling, and pretty decent off-road too. My previous Renegade didn’t look too ‘manly’ either, but it was fun to drive until it got totaled. The bigger Bronco would be nice, but I didn’t want the cost and low gas mileage, so Sport it is for me.

The Bronco Sport is rugged enough for me! And it’s actually got more off-road chops than a lot of other small SUVs out there.

Check out my new setup…

Not everyone needs a giant truck to feel ‘manly.’

Here’s mine…

Sweet setup!

Congrats on the Bronco Sport! We have a couple of vehicles, and our fun one is a larger Bronco, but I’d definitely get the Sport as my next daily driver.

Got mine decked out with a lift kit and new tires.

That setup looks amazing! Thinking of doing the same.

Anyone know if they’re still doing the Bronco off-road events? My brother and I tried it in New Hampshire, and it was a blast. Even the Sports held up well!

I’m headed to the Tennessee one in December!

Yeah, they opened dates through April! You’ll find them for a few locations now.
