...then asked for it back. I say "pound sand", a contract is a contract. Ultimately Ford corporate let the guy keep the car. Story Link
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

Saw one in town and was disappointed, it’s tiny and not at all what I think of when I think of the Bronco.

Any bronco you are seeing is the sport model. The regular size models are not yet in production. Theu are just starting to take orders for them now.
So, chew away at those bronco babies, they ain’t it.

2beez, they call it the bronco sport.
In the article.
Bronco sport is the small size version of the bronco.
It is what it is.
Look it up.

New one looks like a old International Scout. I think they over hyped it and a lot of folks want their deposits back.

Looks like Ford was marketing the Sport for the Yuppies or well to do parents buying kids their first new car. Like so many cars over the last 20 years they copy certain looks from other vehicles. Like the grill on this looks like some of the past Land Rover models.

Now that's a Bronco, my last one was a 72 with a 302 making about 350 hp. Wish I had another one.
Yes! A Weatherby does kill them deader.

Sport will make a good wife car. I heard Ford is only going to be able to fulfill around 30% of preorders this year for the full size. Most will be waiting until 2022 for one.

...then asked for it back. I say "pound sand", a contract is a contract. Ultimately Ford corporate let the guy keep the car. Story LinkThings like that happen quite frequently. When the new Supra came out we had a waiting list for a special one and it was the first one we got. New manager got greedy and auctioned it off to the waiting list customers and make a big profit then found out he was suppose to keep it for 6 months before selling it as we would not get another one till then. Had a new manager the next month.

Best I remember the sticker price was over $53k. Bids started a $5k over MSRP and he got close to $10k for it. New owner had an original one he bought brand new the same color with on 36k on it and he wanted a new one to make a pair. Some people have too much money.

There is no conceivable legal argument where they could have forced him to give up that vehicle once the deal was done. If you’ve ever actually read those vehicle sales contracts you know what I’m talking about. They are written insure no “backing out” is possible and say so about 13 different ways. The policies and agreements between Ford and the dealer about not selling them are irrelevant. The customer wasn’t a party to those agreements.
I learned long ago you can't reason someone out of something they don't reason themselves into.

It still looks better than the new Blazer, but not by much. The full size looks 100x better than that and 1,000x more functional.
I just turned it on . I was looking bird dogs in the butt this morning.

The bronco sport has nothing in common with the real bronco. The sport is a ford escape chasi. Uni body with transverse 4 banger.
