Old Poot is SURE he is right “this time”

LOL

My wife bought a Subaru she’d be divorced. All
Good though, that’s just me.

Where did you find them to look over?

I know it’s a Bronco, but it ain’t a Bronco.

BINO

It’s pretty clear multiple people on this thread are confusing the Bronco Sport with the Bronco.

Yeah but a Vette ain't a Vette anymore either.

To me this thing looks like a 1961 International Scout. I say that as a compliment.

A pt cruiser with 4 wheel drive. Its going to be big with the plus 70 female crowd to use shopping and bingo

So what color you gettin ?

I'm still trying to find my mobile home that floated down the river during the last rain here so can't afford a pt cruiser at this time. My bad as I should have put an anchor line on my home.

At least the PT Cruiser was an attempt at style.

Seriously, I can ride past any SUV these days and not know the make...or care for that matter. They all look completely identical...From Kia to Mercedes.

The name brings back a bittersweet memory for me from 1988.
The last words Dad said to me as he was about to be wheeled to surgery for a bypass operation, were, "When I get home, we're going out and buying a new Bronco."
He never made it home.

The Bronco is a body-on-frame based on the Ranger. The Bronco Sport is a unibody sharing the same motor and drivetrain options as the Escape. I think they made a mistake and have caused a lot of confusion by having two totally different models share the same name. The Bronco is a fairly capable vehicle, the Bronco Sport is a better looking Escape.

You must just be a fuuckin idiot. But then I already knew that. Nobody that isn't a complete moron would overlook anchoring a mobile home.

One just turned up in my new neighbors driveway. She’s a little girl. Hubby bought a pretty nice looking 150 too. They just moved up here from NYC. Traded in their Audi and whatever he was driving I would presume. Trying to ‘fit in’. I like it better than my GF’s Honda, but agree - it’s about the same size. Better function? Maybe in the storms of winter. See how it holds up for her.

Mass Bronco Sport confusion with the actual Bronco! No real comparison

There are several of those new "little" Broncos in my small town, and I haven't checked to see what is driving them, but I know it won't be me.
I still think Ford has to at least make it so it doesn't look like an International Scout

Love the old Scouts, they were a beast.

Jeep did a "Sport" but it was just a trim level.
I am trying to think who else offered a "Sport"

Was the original "ranger" Broncos and f-100/150? Just a trim level?

Sounds like the new bronco/bronco sport is almost like the old bronco/broncoII...

I got the perspective of a 16yr old girl this morning, as I told my daughter that all those little Bronco Sport rigs were basically Escapes with a different body. She said they weren't bad looking for that type of vehicle and certainly looked better than the rounded and effeminate Escape. My wife has also mentioned how so many of the smaller SUV models these days are ugly. They think the Bronco Sport is a cooler alternative, and are probably representative of the market Ford is trying to capture.

I'm more interested in the body-on-frame Bronco models, especially since they are going to be available with the 2.7L Ecoboost. It should have the power that other models have always lacked (Wranglers, FJ Cruisers).

Local dealer had the Bronco! One look and she was gone.
Tough talk, there Sandbilly! Bet she gets anything she wants!😳
