    In a world filled with dull crossovers, the 2021 Ford Bronco Sport is a breath of fresh air. Looks great and is filled with character. What do you think?

      I'm about to pull the trigger on a 2021 Mazda CX 5 Signature and felt I needed to check out the Bronco just in case. I would not buy a car powered by a 3 cylinder gas engine under any circumstances. The interior looks cheap compared to the Mazda. The exterior is a little too cute and "PT Cruiser" in my opinion. The available 7 speed manual is the car's strongest feature for me but it's not enough. I'm out.

    I had a 2021 Bronco Sport Big Bend, I added the 2” lift, and 30” KO2’s and went to Moab and did many of the trails with ease that Grand Cherokees (newer ones) could not even do. I also drove the entire beach of Padre Island with no issues (60 miles). (Many centuries ago I once got my 2wd Ford ranger stuck on Padre Island Beach) Don’t let anyone tell you the Sport Big Bend can’t do off road. I have since traded in my sport for the full size Bronco Badlands 2.7 with sas after waiting for it for 2 years.

    The only thing it wasn’t specd with was the cargo tray and wildtrak tires- as far as I can tell. Bought it off the lot in a moment of total impulse and traded my 13 Flex LTD. so glad I did 😊
    Also, very cool to hear someone with a racing background extolling the virtues of a 3 cylinder engine.

      Good choice! Looking forward to trying a Badlands soon. Shame they don't make the Flex any longer. Such a cool thing.
      As for the 3-cylinder, there's nothing wrong with it. I'm sure there's all kinds of unsubstantiated criticism here on TH-cam, but most car TH-camrs don't have a clue how to drive.

      1. No, it’s got plenty of power and torque, and no bad habits.
      2. I can’t speculate because I don’t have any data, but I remember driving this motor five or six years ago for the first time, so there must be long term reliability data out there.
