    Anybody get one? What engine? Love it or hate it?

    Was poking around and can't believe the price. Around 30K I've been looking at Fj's for a while and they are crazy in price.

    The phrase turd box comes to mind at least for what I have seen of the "sport" edition.

    Neighbor got one for his wife. Likes the gas mileage and utility for her, but that’s about it. Nice enough small SUV for the money, though.

    Still haven't seen one. Weird, I'd think they'd be all over around here but nope, not a single one spotted yet.

    In the latest Car and Driver, the Mazda CX-5 Turbo was rated better than the Bronco Sport

    Edit: the CX-5, especially the Turbo, is the best in it's class, and it's not really close.

    Yep, was looking at the "sport" prices, didn't realize it's a completely different animal to the Bronco.

    I agree, the "Sport" looks like a complete joke, avoid that trim level at all costs. The regular one actually doesn't look all that terrible in person. Saw them both at Barrett-Jackson over this past weekend. The #1 VIN of the Bronco sold for $1,075,000 :eek:

    I saw one in the parking lot the other day. Not sure which trim it was but it seemed smaller than I imagined.

    The Bronco Sport is a restyled Escape.

    The Bronco and Bronco Sport are two completely different vehicles.

    This isn’t hard.

    Bronco Sport: restyled Escape

    Bronco: body on frame, Ranger based

    I hate this model naming going on. Rogue Sport, Sante Fe Sport, Bronco Sport.... It used to be that a "Sport" model would just be a trim variant of the same vehicle. Now it just a smaller, or even now a different model altogether.

    No Broncos out yet. I agree on the Bronco Sport, absolute garbage.

    I guess we'll just have to disagree on what is a "real" Bronco...

    Bronco...

    looks like Linders'd slowly gets established in the same fashion as Broomed.
