Still think a Badlands Sasquatch can pull at least 20 mpg on normal dirt trails at 30-60 mph. Can't wait to find out. I know my BS Badlands is getting 4 mpg better than the EPA figures the first 5K miles.
It'll do just fine and hard to beat for the price. It may not have lockers but it does have the 3 GOAT modes, 4L and all the modern tech. Good tires and a good driver with that will be very good. Heck, I have a BS BL and it's pretty darn amazing even without a 4L. So I think you'll be surprised!
Depends how you drive it. If you get on frequently then yes, it's not very eco. If you drive it to explore and don't feel the need to drive it like a sports car, you'll be surprised. My BS Badlands is just below 27 mpg after 4200 mostly dirt miles. A few 30 mpg tanks even. Getting better since...
Ha ha very funny. Love my Bronco Sport Badlands such a fun vehicle. But then I'm averaging almost 27 mpg after 4200 miles and much of that is off-road. Ford really did a great job on the Sport! I have a 'big' Bronco Badlands on order too but the BS Badlands is a blast!
I'd like to say an EB but knowing what our 68 Bronco has been through and got us through since my dad bought it new, the 2021 has a lot to prove to me yet. You literally can do anything with our 68. Literally impossible to get stuck. You can always back up. Slide off a snowy trail and get back...
So will the 2.7l Bronco be number 1 for American/Canadian parts then? The Ranger is currently #1 with 70% and that is with the 2.3l. I remember when I had my full-size Bronco it was #1 but it was over 90%.
The only people who don't think the Bronco Sport is a 'real' Bronco are the ones who don't have one! I can tell you after 4000 flawless mostly off-road miles, it's deserving of the name. Will it go everywhere the big Bronco goes? Obviously not, but it shines off-road, goes 0-60 in under 6s and...
True! We once had the rear axle break on our 68 Bronco. My dad just tied it up out of the way and we drove home in 'front wheel drive' mode. Not so sure how that will work on our 21, 22, 23 ,24, 25, 26, ...
Sounds reasonable. I still got low 20s on my 2016 Expy with an Icon lift and 33s. On my Bronco Sport I'm averaging 2.5 mpg above the epa figures after 3400 miles!
July 18th reserve
Dealer only has 5 allocations and thinks my BL will be the first one built based on what I ordered vs the other 4, so maybe one year to the date, Jul 18, 2021!
Stock 2dr BL: I'll be happy with and expecting to get 20ish when on regular dirt roads/2-tracks. Not-hard core off-roading but those 30-60 mph open trails. With an extra 5g of gas on hand, that would be over a 400 mile range which is what I always plan on minimum. My Bronco Sport BL gets 27-30...
Typical ecoboost! It you drive it hard, mileage sucks. Drive it normal or for mileage and you'll he surprised. I still got low 20s on my lifted Expedition with 33s and no front air dam (3.5l). My 2.0 Bronco Sport is getting about 3 mpg better than the epa figures, yet a bunch of guys are...
Wait? I thought Job 1 was May 3rd but you're saying mannequins are supposed to be built before retail orders and some of these aren't even being built until the end of May? I thought we were expecting mass production by early May?!
I ordered without because there was no way I was going to pay that much, especially considering how much the top will be off, but I'll take it for free! Thanks Ford!
