My DD is a 2023 BS BL where the start button is in the top of the dash

I get confused every time I got into my 2024 Maverick Lariat Tremor where the start button is in the lower area of the dash...

Hasta la vista amigo

OK, from where is that? Got a link? Thanks, maybe.

Sorry, I just copy and pasted the picture from a Google query.

I have to say, that looks sharp! You won't regret it. We used to have a Ford Bronco Sport Outer Banks and it was a great car. For a 3-cylinder turbo, it had decent get-up and go. Also, the fuel economy wasn't half-bad. I averaged 34-35 mpg on a road trip from Florida to Connecticut and back. Being yours is the Badlands, that'll have the same 2.0L Ecoboost from the Maverick. So, even more power and torque.

As nice as that car was, we later traded it for a Jeep Wrangler. We wanted something with more capability and can confidently drive in the snow as we're planning on moving to the Northeast in the near future. Here's a glimpse of ours...

Nice! We have the best of both worlds! I have a Maverick and my wife has a BroncoSport!

I end up with crap in my bed two or three times a week. Stuff that would not fit in my previous Bronco Sport.
And I don’t have to hook up the 5x8 trailer.
My Mav is so handy.

I had a BS BB before the Maverick and don't really miss the space behind the back seat when shopping. I can pack quite a bit of stuff inside the cab on the Maverick especially with the compartments under the back seat.And i could never haul 30 1.5 cubic feet mulch bags in the BS BB.

I've had Ford trucks for as long as I can remember. I'm a bit older now and my Home Depot runs are few and usually for nuts and bolts. My hauling lumber and stuff for remodeling or rebuilding are over. My SO asked if I really needed a truck and I gave it lots of thought. As of Monday, I'm in a Bronco Sport Badlands. It's pretty much a very updated, 2 foot shorter Maverick with a hatch instead of a bed. I did keep it red. We'll see how it goes.

Nice BS BL I hope You have better luck with it than I did with the 2023 BS BB I had.That's why I have the Maverick now and love it.I had a bunch of Trucks before the BS BB mostly F-150's and had to ask the neighbor across the street with His 1500 Silverado to haul mulch for me in 2024 but not this year.

If the Mav didn’t have the very flexible back seat, I may have also thought about internal storage. That Bronco looks great!

X2 on the flexible back seat which is great for storage space.

Wish that Bronco had a hybrid model, I would get it if they ever do

I agree. I'm sure they will at some point. Maybe for the 2027. If they do might trade in the 23 that my wife has. Though I hope the next gen version is a little bigger. Like Honda CRV size.

Bought a 2025 BS Badlands for the wife and Tremor for me. We have had them for 9 months and no complaints. I still do truck stuff all the time with the Maverick. We put a 70 quart cooler in the back of the Bronco Sport and it is used as the grocery getter.

 

[Suzukiridr14]

I agree with you, buy what your needs are, I bought a Maverick because I realy don't need a larger truck, we have a SUV to do every day stuff, and with the Maverick, I have a small truck for my now , and then projects! Enjoy your Bronco, and when the time comes for something else, check out what's out there.

 

[Ponyprez]

I hear you. I am seriously considering dropping the Mav because after dreaming about it for more than a year, now that I actually have it, I'm finding that things are different in my life where I rarely need a truck. Even on a couple of occasions where I was hauling a lot of stuff, I just used a trailer. Perhaps what I needed was a smaller SUV w/ a trailer hitch.

Just curious as to what you would replace the Mav with and why? To me my Mav replaced a Subaru Forester Touring model (Lariat equal), the Mav carries larger items but the Subie held everything secured inside.

I originally thought I would get a Bronco Sport to replace my 2012 Escape, but my wife got an Escape Hybrid a few years ago. Ended up with the Maverick and still have the 2012 Escape, similar shape and rear window that opens.
