Hello! You actually sold me on two vehicles. The first was a 2023 Mazda cx 30 turbo and now it’s this 2024 Ford Bronco Sport Big bend. Just wanted to say thank you for your analysis. I agree with this review and this vehicle has no real body roll and the ride comfort is to me, better than the Mazda cx 30 I had. I love the ford bronco sport and it’s so much more comfortable and definitely everything I need and nothing more. Acceleration is perfect as well. It definitely is enough to get up and go. Big bend is really a good deal if you don’t need leather. Ford app is also free with remote start as of this comment. Sorry for the long comment and thank you again. 👍🏽
For a realistic price in the upper $20s this is a bargain today. I hated on them when they came out but have come around, and outside of looks seems this is maybe a better executed vehicle than the full size Bronco.
I like the character this car has, and that they used the bronco badge instead of the Chevrolet badge on the car and steering wheel. I've thought about taking the Chevrolet badge off the back of my car and putting an Impala badge. Interesting you mention car manufacturers can change the vehicle without mentioning it publicly, that's the first time I've heard it but I believe it. These cars remind me of the old Ford Escapes (maybe 2008-2012?). Won't be in my budget any time soon but it's a cool car.
Yea my friend nice little ride and impala badges would be cool! I have noticed with many vehicle where I had complaints, literally a year later, everything I complained about would be fixed but there would be no mention of it in their press releases..
Definitely a solid vehicle. If you don’t mind the hit to the ego, it is based on the Escape which gets even better mpg, and has more room in the front row. And is easier to get the 2.0L if that is of interest.
Thanks so much, I consider all my viewers friends who stop by! And I had no idea, I never watch other car reviews so I’m not influenced by other’s and their thoughts. I’m a big fan of this.
Great and fair review. We share alot of the same opinions. The roll is not noticeable. I did let some of the air out and does help. Very good size. I drive elderly people around and they are able to get in and out just fine.
@@MeynMotorGroup I see things differently because I always go for used cars. I'm expecting car prices, and especially used car prices to come down significantly in the next 6 to 12 months. There are already a good number of used 4 cylinder bronco sports under $30k. Already the 4 cylinder is around $27k, and the 3 cylinder is around $22k, each in the 30k mile range. I'd go ahead and get the 4 cylinder at those price diffences.
@@goatmonkey2112 the problem with those used prices is you can simply just get a new one at those same prices… You probably didn’t watch until the end but new ones are being discounted heavily if not less than the prices you quoted because new ones qualify for incentives on top of dealer discount. (There’s also 25k of these on dealer lots new nationwide) Same story pre pandemic as well. If you’re going to buy used you have to buy like a $5k-$10k car otherwise new with 0 miles and full warranty + discounts is the way to go. 30k miles also is not an insignificant amount of miles and not as low as many think. Aside from that your depreciation is now starting at 30k miles vs a new one starting at 0 miles which cost the same as your used Bronco if not a grand or two more. Don’t even have to mention higher interest rates with used cars. As you can see the savings with used practically doesn’t exist but many still believe in the concept of buying used to save on depreciation. There’s very few used cars worth buying and there’s always a new car alternative that’s better purchase regardless. But that’s just my thoughts. God Bless my friend.
There's been rumour circulating that Ford might bring this back to Oz, and I personally think it would be great if they do, economical and lots of physical buttons in a vehicle that looks pretty cool too.
That’s great I also heard from someone who works on Ford Fleet vehicles saying the Ecoboost engines have proven to be pretty good for what it is. I know new cars come with warranties but it’s nice to know vehicle won’t just sit in the shop all day
Does anyone else notice the excessive brake dust around the front wheels and tires? My 2022 is off the charts . Ford really did a bad job with the front brake pads and other than that it's a decent vehicle.
Look around, the world is not interested in making things that last. It’s our job as consumers to learn proper methods to hedge ourselves from depreciation and repairs. Which I cover in great details in literally every vid.
You can say that about literally any new car including whatever is on your driveway right now. No car is perfect at least with a new car you get full factory warranty and the dealer/manufacturer is responsible for fixing it.

Yea I was the same way I wasn't a fan at first but after trying it and seeing how much you get for the money, I'm a fan
This was a great review, you covered all the important data and added your own personality making the review fun to watch. Great job!
Glad you enjoyed it!

Yup 😅😂 I didn't mention that but if you're ok with owning the "little" bronco then this is a solid buy
Best bang for your buck if you can work out a good price and incentives. Just bought one for the wife to drive and we love it.
Best opening in the business. I feel welcome.
This car sure caught a lot of bad press. IDK. I thought you got a lot of car for MSRP.

Got the Big Bend last week 3 tires were at 39psi cold and the last at 41psi.
My new Big Bend came with all four tires at 42psi. I backed them down to 33psi.
Thank you for the review. I am thinking really hard about trading my 2020 Escape for a Bronco Outer Banks!
In my opinion the Badlands is the only one worth looking at since it has the 4 cylinder.
Yea my friend but that price is too much for what it is. Try this 3 cylinder out it’s def good for street driving

I'm not sure I trust a three three cylinder. It is hard to get smooth idling.
2.0 was worth money
Does anyone else notice the excessive brake dust around the front wheels and tires? My 2022 is off the charts . Ford really did a bad job with the front brake pads and other than that it's a decent vehicle.
I wouldn't know for sure because in the one week I had to test this car, we got a bunch of rain so that washed away any brake dust if there was any
I have a 22 Escape and notice lots of break dust as well
Yo my bro 🤝😎🫡
Thank you brother for dropping on this Bronco vid!
@@MeynMotorGroup No problem my bro 🤝😎👍🏾👍🏾
👊🏾👍🏾👍🏾
still a 3 cylinder wont last as long

It's a Ford. Give it a little time and do another review
