The only thing that's needs changing is even better tires. I like the Goodyear Wrangler MT/R with kevlars at 35 inches with a 4 inch (10 cm) lift which could be done for around $2000 to $3000 US for both depending upon your area and tire stock availability! Since the $40,000 is is decently equipped Bronco Sport price + $3000 worth of tires and lift, that is STILL about $11,000 cheaper than the highly-marked up Jeep Wrangler Sahara edition and $16,000 cheaper than the really high-markup Jeep Wrangler Rubicon edition! (it is CRAZY what the latest April 2021 markups on those Jeeps are on the West Coast USA!) v

The Bronco has no chance with fuel economy regulations. It’s literally the least-efficient vehicle Ford makes, getting even less gas mileage than the F-150. The Bronco Sport is very likely to go over though. It’s a compact crossover, and that’s the most popular CUV segment over there. The fact it evokes the old-school Defenders and has decent gas mileage probably won’t hurt either.

At the end, the 250hp help for this kind of deep snow, and 4x4 advanced, this is why you want the badlands, or first edition. The baby Bronco all the way ! So the big brother will be incredible, but it is more expensive as soon as you add options. You would need to have only the base model. The bronco sport badlands is already good for city and off road and has the full luxury interior, with all the bells and whistle, badlands package, assist+, trailer hitch, roof rack, bicycle carrier, storage cargo, everything.. for nearly a little more than the price of the bronco base.

Nothing to do with this Baby Bronco, but Tommy has to get it out of his head that IFS and articulation are mutually exclusive. The majority of Ultra4 offroaders are now running IFS. Now it's significantly more expensive and complex (this also makes modifications more difficult) to get the same amount of articulation out of IFS, but it's certainly not impossible. The only real advantage a solid axel has, aside from cost and simplicity, is improved steering angle.
@devinbender8428
@devinbender8428 3 года назад
Agreed. If your going to upgrade your vehicle for HARDCORE rock crawling then the cost difference is marginal. But lifting it and throwing on som 40s like most bros do with out upgrading everything else, yea SFS is cheaper. But at the end of the day IFS is still very very very good off road. 5/7 past years winners of the hammers is IFS. Just because it handles so much better on the non rock parts.

As much as I would love a full size truck or 4runner, etc. I simply don't need one nor does it make financial sense right now. My sport has done very well in heavy rains, light mud and my actual driving style.

Glad to see this do so well...and bummed lol. Our second vehicle is a subi Forester sport 2019 and we love it. Done everything I need on fire roads and plowed snow to go up to Mt Hood. I don't use it for what it isn't, for camping/overlanding we have an F150 for that on 34s. And in any instance rock crawling like with a jeep isn't what we need/want. I do like the look of the Bronco Sport and think it has hints if the old disco with the roof line. The msrp is higher than the subi Forester sport, but that engine is way more powerful and the awd system seem a lot better.

That electronic all wheel drive system actually did a great job. It’s pretty impressive for that little truck to make it through those trails. I was surprised, as a lot of people probably were. Price range isn’t terrible for it considering how expensive most new cars are.

I think the bronco sport appeals to the same crowd as the old Bronco II did. Practical but capable enough off road to have some fun. That said, the Bronco II got a lot of “That’s not a real Bronco” hate just like the Bronco sport does now.

I have owned my Bronco Sport 1st Edition (Area 51) for about 5 months now and love it, I really wanted the two door full size Bronco but the opportunity to snag this at MSRP , will get a two door in the future , but for me it does everything I have asked of it , on and off road. Great job on all of the videos and keep them coming TFL! This video actually helped me decide on buying , thanks again!

It'd be really cool to see TFL classics to find and buy a Bronco II and then eventually compare each. Obviously the technology gap is 30 years apart but it'd be fun to see.

@@jerroldshelton9367 that may be true but let's be honest...they don't do that level of extreme on this show. For the tests they do, I think it would still be a fun comparison. This vehicle could do Moab, cliffhanger 1 and 2, along with any other of their tests. Now, if they could find a Bronco II that worked, it would be a fun comparison. At least I think it would be.
