2022 Bronco sport review

I'm curious about that too; if I remember, Arly's Ranger can tow something like 5-6k pounds, and I wonder how the little Bronco compares.

Internet says 2000 lbs.

I wouldn't doubt it, those sports are small, built on the Escape platform. The regular Bronco is the one that shares the Ranger platform.

Yeah the regular Bronco is 3500, same as my Saturn Vue

Just got a 2" hitch installed today. Do you want to see pics of that?

Yes. Also, where did you get it and who installed it?

I bought one for my little Toyota from Etralier.com and was astounded how well it fit and how easy it was to install. Took all of about 15 minutes. The hardest part was figuring out the wiring.

I assume your vehicle was pre-wired for trailer lights, just plug into the system?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I hired it done. Seems they spent quite a bit of time at it.

Photos of the hitch which is covered by body panels and near the muffler. Glad I hired it done.

That's a clean install, but very tight!

No wonder it took them a while, it looks like they had to remove some stuff. When you said it took them a while couldn’t figure out why. I put one on a pickup in the late 90’s and it took me about an hour. Of course I never looked under the back end of a Bronco. Looks like the exhaust was the main problem. They did a little cutting on the rear valance where the hitch exits. I get some u shaped trim molding to put over those raw edges and give it a finished look.

Do note guys, I don't drive this thing much. When I do it sure is quiet, comfortable to ride in and enough power to feel sporty.
