This. Right where I am. The BL with BL /tow is 10k less than! BD build. But I can't drop the top. It's the open hatch and windows enough?
IMO, the BL + BL is the only viable trim with the Sport. The 2.0L is the minimum that should be a consideration. But the stale tech on a new release bothers me. Sync 3 should not have been a consideration. Overall, I like a lot of the Sport and will be keeping an eye on it's development. We know of the available lift and the 2.3L should easily fit in the engine bay as it occupies the same footprint as the 2.0. If a SportHog comes to fruition, one will be parked next to my Big Bronco.

I definitely had a moment when I saw a Carb Gray Bronco Sport in person. I never bought a toy version of it though or joined that forum which tells me my subconscious is speaking loudly to what I’ll be happiest with. If for some reason I see my Bronco order in person and can’t justify the purchase, I’d likely drive home in a Sport from the lot for a fair amount less and be excited about it. Just not as excited as I expect to be actually driving home in my big Bronco.
That's fair. Even I can admit that I'd be happier with the big Bronco. But, what I'm beginning to realize is that being happier with a Bronco doesn't mean that I wouldn't be happy with a Sport.

My problem is that I'm almost at a point now where I can't justify buying the Bronco Badlands that I've been drooling over for months. It's not that I can't afford it...I can. But, just because you can afford something doesn't mean you should.

Timing is everything to me and this delay is screwing with my timing. But, hell...I can always trade up later if I want to if I get the Sport but can't shake that "Damn, I should've waited" feeling.

Yes and yes. The only thing keeping me from being pissed of about Sync 3 if I decide to go with the Sport over the Bronco is that Sync 3 is a definite upgrade over what I currently have on my 2012 Fusion. But, man...the decision to forgo the latest version of Sync on a brand new vehicle makes no sense to me.

Does Area 51 not seem like a slate blue to anyone else? If it was more dark grey I’d be into it but I think cactus looks amazing
Man I'd love if A51 was slate blue. But in lighting it shifts from a dark turquoise to baby blue. Not enough gray in it for me. A hair less saturation and I'd love it. But Carb Gray for me it is.

Im digging it!
It looks off-white to me, I know it's nighttime but shouldn't it be more distinctive than that? And is that the awning accessory on it? Thanks for the pics.

The rear end is so not attractive.

Looks like I am for sure keeping my JKUR till the real Bronco is out and available. It's a compact 4x4 station wagon with very limited 4x4 ability. There are others out there that have been around for years. Too bad,,, it would have been a nice way to go.

I’ve been checking out Sports the last two days trying to get a look at the colors. Some observations:

1. Area 51 didn’t do it for me. Indoors it looked a bit dull, but I thought it look better under natural light. Not really. Not awful, but off my list.

2. The vehicle is so tiny. Dealer stock loaded up on Big Bend models so clearly they expect volume there.

3. Sport Big Bend has body color tops while the First Edition is glossy black. There is no connection from the roof to the body so maybe that is influencing me, but body color just looks odd. The glossy black tops look much, much better.

4. I haven’t seen any Cactus Gray dealer stock in my searching. Lots of A51. That means a few things. First, dealers aren’t high on cactus gray as I’ve seen almost every other color in stock. Also, if you hear of a cactus gray sport on a lot, go right away since it’s likely to be a reservation unit and just waiting on pickup. That happened to me, another poster said Capital Ford - Raleigh had one and it was gone the next day.
Looks like this .
