Proudly priced at nearly $50,000, this masterpiece of engineering and artistry ensures a thrilling, luxurious, heritage type driving experience. Simply put, the 2023 Bronco Sport Heritage redefines automotive excellence, captivating adventurers with unrivaled prowess and timeless style. I love it. I'll take three.
Well done.
I can almost taste the purity of lineage. Superb.
What you're discribing can be said about the Ford Pinto but id rather own the Pinto over this. 😂
I have visions of balding eagles everytime I look at it
Im not sold yet. Please tell me about usability and riving experience.
Peak AI ad copy!🤣
Someone called this, "a Ford Escape with an OtterBox case" and I can't unsee it.
I really want to see this thing compared to the escape. These things are super capable
😂😂
😂😂
Imagine paying 600$ per month for the next 7 years for this

People do put money down, I have a $65k truck on order I'm putting down half
@@Tool0GT92 smart people put money down. But smart people do not buy a badged up Ford Escape for almost 50k out the door. The type of people that will buy this thing will also get a 72 month loan at 8-9% and give away their 2015 Altima as a trade in vehicle to the dealership at 5k when it’s worth closer to 10. Not the brightest bunch.
Junk. Either get a real Bronco or a Honda crv.
Ha! That's not what my EK Echo said. It said I financed it for 120 months at 18%.
At the end of the day $50,000 for a Ford Escape is a horrific value. Way to go Ford.
It's not an escape lol
@@stupidvideos1449-yes it is. Same chassis, same power train…
@@DS-wo8wr This is a unibody; which doesn't have a chassis.
If you're ignorantly referring to a platform as a "chassis" then you should know that the A6 and Lamborghini Urus share a "chassis" but one is 4x the cost of the other.
@DS-wo8wr With a completely different suspension and body. That's like saying a Touareg and Urus are the same
@@tim3172I bet the profit margins on that Lambo are BIG
4:31 "there are countless examples of this thing going offroad" *shows regular Bronco offroading* 😂😂😂
To be fair it was a yellow and white Bronco so...
I thought the same thing. B roll was full size
Beat me to it by only... ten hours.
At this point, I think they are snarky enough to do it on purpose. Well done, sirs! 😂
I mean, c’mon, $50K for this? Gtfo.
@@scottgabbard662 Seriously. Car companies got greedy and arrogant these past few years. This is a bonkers price.
@4:30 love how they sprinkle footage of the big Bronco off-roading like we would not notice!😂😂
For that much money, it should include a replacement EcoBoost engine at 60,000 miles.
😂 IT will definitely need it 😂
60k? If you're lucky..I ve seen them blow at less then 2k...🖕Ford.
what about the one I need at 30k?
@@drewprew Let's not get too crazy here...
does it have a wet belt driven oil pump? I know the 2.7 now has it, pretty sure the 3.5 and that other 3 cylinder engine does too. Insane.
The last time I went off roading was when I had to drive to the grass overflow parking lot at my local Farmer's Market. I was super happy I had the extra off road deluxe excursion 4x4 megadrive package on my 2023 Ford Wrangler Bronco XLT BBC. Otherwise I don't think I would have made it out alive.
Glad to hear that you and your family are safe. Dangerous times out there. Stay safe!
I bet your wife is enjoying the BBC package. Excellent choice
@@TheGreektrojan I will my brother. My county also installed 3 speed bumps on my commute route. I'm glad I can now handle them with confidence and ease. I feel like an offroad hero, like I am roughing it, like I am a real man. Almost makes me forget my unfaithful wife, ungrateful children and my dead end job. But when I mount that Spearmint Rhino curb in my beast, all worries disappear for a few seconds.
This vehicle is inspirational. It inspires me to look for a low-mileage FJ Cruiser.
that'd cost about the same
@@bradhaines3142 and last 3 times as long
Current Ford Dealers - $46,400 msrp + $3000 ADM + $500 dealer pin stripe + $200 nitrogen tires + $750 low jack + $1500 Xtreme weather coating plus + $800 you probably stopped reading fee + $500 vin window etching fee.
Gotta love the $200 for Nitrogen tires. I can take my cars to Costco & pump the tires full of Nitrogen for free!
Gotta love nitrogen filled tires when air is already 80% nitrogen.
Ford and their dealers are a joke. Why would anyone pay that ?
I'm become accustomed to discovering higher prices than I had expected. But having personally been given a showing of one of these by a new owner, I literally gasped at the moment of the video when the price was revealed.
Same, I cannot imagine buying one of these, let alone paying entry level luxury prices for it.
Same. That’s wild. I would’ve guessed like 43K.
For the price, I could get the Audi A6 or for 10k more the A6 Allroad I want.
I will wait for the new Rav4 Bronco, which has a B58 on each axle !!
Ford pricing is crazy even without dealer markup. Glad we went with a Mazda
My 2016 cx5 commuter does the trick. Still running great at 167k miles
I grew up in all ford family. My mom just traded in her ford escape for a new kia sportage. She wanted the bronco sport but the price turned her away.
used Cx-30 turbo for the win
Still waiting for the OJ Commemorative Edition. Or paint to sample Orange Juice White.
comes with a matching set of driving gloves
For sale: driving gloves, didn't fit
That should have been OJ heritage
Old joke is old.
I think Mark should receive some kind of honesty award.
Mark, the date analogy ... just no words. All I can do is laugh and shake my head 😂
We need an 8 inch ground clearance Prius for city roads
This is the thing nobody really acknowledges when they say something like, "everyone likes SUVs". It's kind of obvious why given the road condition in the mid-west.
@@tgoods44 As a truck driver that goes through the Midwest often: doctors say my ass will never be the same.
Transsyberia trim!
You joke, but after moving from OR to CO, you either need a really narrow car to be able to avoid the car destroying potholes or enough suspension travel and chunky enough tires to be able to drive over them. It feels like the entirety of the road "maintenance" money is spent on snowplows in the winter with none left to repair the damage in the summer.
@@jacobscheer2730it just adds traction in the ice!
“The rear seats aren’t suitable for adults”. “This is a shit-box” 😂
Love the honesty with your audience.
Yes: "This thing is a shitbox."
Jack's comparison to that date is pretty spot on these days in the car market.
Wow, I think Jack just out-browned Mr. Regular there
I love how you get right to the point at the very beginning of the video. That is a truly insane amount of money for this vehicle.
I guess the target market is financially illiterate Ford loyalists who don't really cross-shop. With a 96-month loan the payments aren't much more than a regular Bronco Sport!
Insane price. At half the price I'd be interested even if the more expensive features were left out.
You guys are doing HDR better than any other channel I’ve seen. Fantastic shots 🔥🎥 🔥
I agree
Yes, you can feel the hate for this vehicle in HDR that much more 😂
Seriously though, Mark is the man with cinematography. He’s our own James Cameron in the great abyss of cars.
@@hondahirny 😂
mazda cx-50 showing up as an option twice is what i live for😏
I’m a Mazda convert after owning my cx-50 turbo prem + for a year. It’s quite a lovely daily driver. Handles nicely and the interior feels upscale.
I can tell Mark really loved this car. If he takes on extra shifts at Hardee’s, I think he can swing the 72 month loan on it. 😂😂
You know this is a superior vehicle to the new Type R Civic. Heritage, and limited at that, is everything….
I missed seeing make spill his Milkshake on the TuxMats!
LOL Mark's comparison of the Bronco to his date. Hilarious!!!
I think this will be a decent car for the used market. Let someone else eat the depreciation, then buy it.
The depreciation of this is going to be crazy.
Rather eat ass than eat depreciation
@@mrkcaldwe5 But it would be for a reason. Why buy a used car that's cheap because it's unreliable?
I bought my Standard 2022 Genesis GV70 brand new out the door at just over $45k. $50k for this shit it INSANE.
wow just what I wanted. A lifted boxy ford focus with all terrains for $50,000!!!
Two years ago I bought an immaculate '15 Cayenne SEH with 67k on it for $38k, it is currently worth ~$45-48k (i did under pay for it by more than $5k, the rest is inflation). It is giving me 31 mpg and has cost me a set of tires and 4 oil changes so far.😊 I cannot imagine paying 10 grand more to get a car so much worse.
Yea but you getting lucky with a “made mid week” when nobody was hung over - 7 year old Porsche isn’t the the standard. 😒
I bet my Wifey’s (55k MSRP) 10 year old GMC Acadia Denali is nicer then your Porsche and it has given us nothing but luxurious comfort driving for the $18,500 that I bought it for 4 years ago. 💪🏻😈👌🏼
You can always find a nice deal in the used car market.
You can’t compare it to new vehicles though.
@@I_know_what_im_talking_aboutlol GMC Acadia
@@I_know_what_im_talking_about Sorry, your Traverse is not nicer than a Cayenne lmao

Mark comes up with the best analogies
This is just a ford escape with extra steps.
It’s a ford escape, but as a life style vehicle
Extra chromosome’
It's trying to go back to the boxy 2nd gen look.
@@FerasAlhawasshit made me laugh way to much 😂
It’s a lifted boxy ford focus.
Classic Dr. Goose analogy at 6:50 which Jack anticipates with a mixture of dread and contained hilarity....
My local dealer has two of these in baby blue. No wonder they've been there so long.
The white roof makes it look like a porta potty. Which, coincidently also has a unique brown color interior.
Honestly i have the same feeling about this as i do the Wrangler 392. Its just to expensive for what the vehicle actually is. Yes i know, 392 go vroom, but its also a 35k base pricd vehicle that you are paying 100k for because it has a big engine. It will only ever feel, at best like a 35-45k vehicle inside with all the cheap plastic and flimsy panels. The Bronco Sport has the same problem here, you can dress it up all you want but its only ever going to feel at best like a 30-40k vehicle.
In 2016 my wife and I went to look at Wrangler's for her.
I knew how they were, but she didn't.
She'll never go off road, and was just looking for that suburban housewife Jeep thing.
After sitting in it, driving it, and most importantly pricing it - I convinced her to go over to Acura and compare what she'd get there for the same or less money.
They had an excellent lease rate on the TLX - yes, a very different cross shop from a Wranger.
For far less money the Acura was all cushy, quiet, leather, nice handling etc.
She went with the Acura.
@@Incomudro1963Is your wife single?
Mark's date analogy was hilarious 😂
It was remarkably detailed, wasn't it? LOL.
Can't wait to buy one used in 8 years!
We bought a Badlands for my wife in March. Great little car for what it is and attractive design. Never would have paid 46. We paid 38. I think the mechanical upgrades of the Badlands are worth it, but anything beyond that is getting into real Bronco territory.
4:31 : Talks about Bronco Sport capabilities. Shows regular Bronco. 🤔
Congrats on getting one that hasn't be recalled yet. Rare feat indeed.
At close to 50k you can get a well equipped Grand Cherokee that will be just as good off-road and much nicer on-road.
It would be nice if Ford offered the plug-in hybrid system available in the Escape. That would compete nicely with the unobtainable Rav4 Prime.
Thanks for calling out the price. Some others pretend these prices are normal. Spot on review imho.
I recently went on a road trip last month around the New England coast. I found several of these models in expensive areas like Bar Harbor, ME and Nantucket, MA. They’re going to be bought by rich New Englanders for their children.
Shopping for a car right now. I own a Maverick. Love it. Took my wife to look at a Bronco Sport Heritage with the 1.5. Over $37k on the sticker. 😮😮😮 Drove over to Mazda. Looked at a CX-5 Carbon Edition. Far more equipment. Better engine. MSRP of $32k. We're getting the Mazda this week. I was excited about the Bronc Sport Heritage, but the value proposition is absolutely putrid.
Yeah...the pricing for what you get is insane. Give me cloth seats, half the features, keep the engine and rear diff, and price starting around $25-30K then it sorta makes sense to me.
I'm liking this video not because of the vehicle but the Bluntness of these guys review ! I'd definitely think twice about buying this vehicle😅😅
Mark's analogy on the Driving Impressions was crazy 🤣🤣🤣
A brilliant review. Many thanks.
These should max out at 34k, maybe 36k
ROFL Mark. Insane this is why I like Savagegeese. Always on top of the review chain. Honestly this Bronco and the whole SUV market is just being propped up heavily by the external PR factors more than the reality. Too much bloated market for SUVs so Ford is simply cashing on that fad. If anyone asks for an SUV that I would buy for a large sum of cash, only one comes to my mid - 4Runner.
Damn the Mazda CX-50 is so good it got mentioned twice
Underrated statement about not having to worry about cleaning up a car. For daily use, that goes a long way.
They build them in Mexico on the Maveric platform with cheap materials, engines, drivetrains, and they want almost 50 grand for this? Give me a break, what a rip off. Are they crazy?
This needs to be 32k max
Let's make more packages when we can't keep our current inventory at healthy levels... Thanks ferd
Maverick has a 24-month backorder, and still no one wants these things.
Wow!
You guys look like you are having a great summer!
Have fun.
the diaper story had me dying wtf haha
$50,000!?1
I almost spit my drink out - all over my dash and windshield - when the pouring chocolate appeared.
Its hard to believe these guys don’t have 1million + subscribers yet. Easily one of the best CZcams channels out there. Keep it up!
This vehicle is inspirational.
You guys deliver master class reviews! Give us a review of the 5.0 Mustang
Mustard and Ketchup
Jack listening to Mark’s date description and thinking “we’ll have to do another take on this part” as he laughs.
This review is CLASSIC.
My fully loaded, V6, body on frame, shift on the fly 4x4, totally reliable Xterra Pro-4X was $32K out the door 8 years ago.
I’m about to blow your mind. You ever heard of inflation? Lol
Right. 8 years ago lol... 8 years ago, you could get a decent low mileage Lexus for under $10,000. Now that barely gets a worn out beater Highlander with 200,000 miles.
X-Earth
@@bgarza18 Even when factoring in inflation per the inflation calculator, cars are still another 10-20% more expensive relative to pre-covid. Nuts.
Corporate greedflation
Good. Mark isn't eating a greasy submarine sandwich in the passenger seat...😂
Anyone remember when Farley said he wanted lower priced entry level vehicles for North America?
All those manufacturers who pass out the most expensive iterations of their vehicles to you guys deserve it. To be fair, these days it will likely be difficult to get a less expensive model as that would eat into their profits. Keep being honest!
Good review. For that price you can get a big Bronco with more off road capability. Well done. Thanks.
I learned to drive (5-speed!) on rural Illinois stone roads in a 1994 Ford Escort wagon. It was so much fun (and yes it had steel wheels).
8:17 that is very true, recently went back to your718 spyder video a few years ago and saw comment section loaded with critics of how Mark being fine with the GTS interior but not with the spyder interior is double standard.
I need some skid plates for my underwear seeing the price on this thing! 😂
They do realize they showed footage of a actual, full size Bronco offroad at the 4:30 mark and not a Bronco Sport right lol?
The classic color scheme is fantastic, except for the red lettering on the white grill. It makes it look like a little tikes car. It might look better faded after 20 years, or being covered in a long weekends worth of trail dust or road funk.
6:51 had to double check that I wasn't watching @RegularCars with that analogy...
I really like the character of the Sports, but you are right, in the 30s it would be a contender, but no way for this price.
That is an insane price.
I remember seeing one of these with a 15k markup. Which would make it the same as a badlands full size Bronco with options. Absolutely insane
I wish more automakers would make a boxy cooler crossover like this tbh. Most just dont look all the aspiring. I dont mind crossovers. But most seemed aimed for women and moms. And tbh this will mostly be bought by moms.
"But she's got a new hat" Smithers. This is the Malibu Stacey of cars.
Gotta give Ford credit for how much money they can squeeze from the classics....this example on a unibody front drive platform lol. My wife would say "Oooh a Bronco". Nobody else is fooled.
When a single mother with 3 pitbulls wants to feel alive for the first time in two decades - there’s Ford Bronco Sport
-single mother
- 3 pitbulls
She ain't gonna be a mother for long.
50 grand and steel wheels. That’s a bargain. Can’t wait for the lift gate to rust through in 3 winters.
The molle panels on the lower backs of the front seat are in the perfect place to make the rear seats unusable if you use them.
Ford stole the best from the Jeep Compass engineers.
The wheels are actually not steel. They are alloy painted white to look like steelies.
@@brianb7844 Huh… so people are paying more for something that looks like crap? Kind of like Ford taking the oil pump on their EcoBoost V6 engines from being chain to wet belt driven without telling anyone so the engines grenades at 150k miles. Ford is nothing but a money-grabber these days.
Don't forget large dealer markups. I can literally buy (and would buy instead) a Lexus RX350 for about the same money.
My fav part from the comments are those who think this is extremely overpriced but the Bronco is priced well at the highest trims because it has great off road capabilities. Meanwhile 95% of bronco owners mall crawl.
i talked to someone with a jeep wrangler sahara, first thing i asked was 'did you off road in it at all?' you'd never guess their answer
There’s a blue one in my town, and I have to say it looks pretty good. Didn’t know it’s this expensive tho lmao
Damn! Mark is Ruthless!
My GF and her father have the Bronco Sport with the 1.5 and it is just fine…a little bit noisy on the low end but after that it’s smooth.
Big Bend is the best trim for this. We paid high 20s low 30s MSRP/OTD for an Area 51 Big Bend earlier this year.
That split rear hatch is interesting. I wonder, if the sunroof and the back hatch glass are open, is the hatch glass functional as a spoiler? =)
prices have gotten outrageous.
My local Trader Joe's just repaved their parking lot and the lot entrance now has a 2 inch tall bump, will a Ford Escape suffice or should I get a bronco sport to overcome this obstacle?
The footage a 4:31 is of a full-size bronco, which is actually hilarious considering you can get a decently optioned full size for what this goes for
Finally someone caught it.
@@savagegeese The crafty, subtle dig like that are why I’ll always watch your videos, even if they’re of vehicles I’d never drive
Agree on this review.
In Barbie trim, this thing might sell well today.
Agreed. They need a pink one with pink interior.
“Adult diaper filled with logs that I have to clean off of her” OMEGALUL
Does the Big Bend Over come with the 1.5 3 cylinder?
It looks like they asked Mitsuoka what they could do with stock parts
Are recalls optional on this vehicle?
