Not for me. I'll be curious to see how many sell. I don't expect much. I know we have enthusiasts on here who will be real happy with the Stroppe, but that is more niche too. I think most buyers want more traditional colors. And by that I don't mean shades of gray. I really whish Ford would offer more colors - and more bright colors for the Bronco. Cyber orange was a winner IMHO.

I wear a few of the Free Wheeling Ford Merch but I don't think the actual Bronco's with it is for me
C'mon, man. Be the rebel. The guys will want to be just like you, and the chicks all think they can change you.

The BSport is coming into it's own and looking better regardless of what "purists" think. It makes sense for a lot of people in the city and takes some sales from Subaru for light outdoorsy types. Its a Trojan horse for people adventure-curious or older people who don't want to park a big truck but like to support bronco nation. My city's Bronco FB group is full of happy faces of people buying the Sport and happy to have a "Bronco". They'll go to an off-roadeo or a meetup and find out the difference for themselves.

If Ford selling the Sport helps them justify the big Bronco I am all for it. I see 10/3 Sports for every big one in my city.

The stripes look better on silver then black. I saw a Broncito with those stripes at the Post Office with a boomer man driving it.

Free Weeling is a lot of dress-up for an up-sale look, not sure it is worth it. The advantage of my stock BB is I can add any decals at any time to look whatever I want and change it. If you buy this look you are kind of stuck into it and need to find the next person who does too for resale. Not sure what the 2nd hand market will think of this in 3-5 years unless they are sold in real limited numbers or they create a crazy 70's nostalgia buzz. I'm genX and I like the feeling of 70's/80's, but not enough to make that commitment in 2025 in a truck. Maybe its a play for my parents generation.

Those 5 stripes look like the color catalog of 80's plastic bathroom and kitchen colors, I think I lived in houses with every one of those.

The free wheeling scheme on the 2nd gen looked awesome. On the 6th gen, no thanks. I'd like to see some of the early bronco factory colors come back, such as burnt orange, bold orange, and chrome yellow(looks very close to cyber orange). I wanted the cyber orange when I ordered mine, but wasn't available for a base at the time.

One of my neighbors, a former Bsport badlands just moved up into a Raptor. So it's def working on some sport owners.

Ford's Free Wheeling appearance package was unattractive in 1977-1981, and is even more so in 2025. Sales were dismal years ago, and will be so now.

Nice. That's a big jump!
It's a gateway drug. A Jeep Compass or Renegade are not "real Jeeps" either but gets people into the Jeep family for better or worse.

yeah I get it, we had a Jeep Liberty (POS By the way) and was really close to buying a Wrangler but when the Bronco came out I knew I wanted that. So Broncos weren't really available so my wife bought the Sport. 2 years later I got my full size.
