2022 Bronco sport review

   / 2022 Bronco sport review #151  
Those vehicles kind of scare me because they are extremely expensive to work on, the parts are way overpriced (like everything else is today) and not just anyone works on them.

I like simple and reliable and I want to buy them outright anyway. I despise any kind of vehicle payment.

No worries, she will sell it and buy something new before it starts breaking down and it will be covered under warranty until then.
But I agree, I don't finance anything, it's cash or nothing for me. I caught a lot of slack for paying cash for my new Kubota last fall from people saying I should have financed it but, I don't like to worry about making payments and prefer to own what I own.

Then you sure as hell wouldn't want a newer Ford Bronco, full-size or Sport! Or for that matter, any other newer vehicle. Everything is electric. What's so difficult about a lever-operated transfer case? Instead, new vehicles have a knob on the dash that may or may not engage the transfer case. How'd you like to see a message like this on the dash of your new vehicle when you get in a situation when 4wd is needed (this is a full-size Ford Bronco):

2020 Jeep Wrangler has a lever shift transfer case. Although I have to say that I’ve driven many newer 4x4 vehicles with elevators switched transfer cases and never had a problem.

Some folks keep posting the same ol, same ol how they hate the Bronco. Might be the 3rd time they've done that here. Did that have to buy one?? Are they mad someone else has one and likes it? :unsure: :cry::LOL:😠:unsure:

Getting back on topic, Arly it looks like the BS is available with a receiver hitch as an option, so did they use the factory mounting locations for your hitch? Also, did they have to cut the plastic on the bumper or does it already have the cutout for the hitch from the factory?

Looks like they did a nice job.

Looks like they cut the plastic out the rear for the hitch. Seems they would have to use the holes that ford put in the subframe for the hitch.

Kind of puts me in mind of the new tractors with push button everything. If I wanted a new full size Bronco, I'd buy it outright anyway. Like I said, I don't like financing anything. Kind of like the new Shop Saber plasma table I bought a couple months ago. I didn't even consider buying it until I had the funds to pay for it outright which is exactly what I did. It was only 37 grand plus 1800 to deliver it. I could have financed it but I don't like finance at all.

Why do some in this thread keep harping about how people pay for something and if it is financed? If someone wants to finance that's not always a bad thing. Many of us understand that sometimes financing allows us to invest the money in a way that provides a higher return than the financing costs. That is an individual choice based on their circumstances.

I thought the tread was about the Bronco Sport...
