- Cassie and I bought a 2021 Ford Bronco!! The only issue is that it is in the wrong state....
Most of you know that we are huge Jeep fans, but the bronco has a lot of cool options that might compete with the Wrangler. So the best way to see if its a capable rig, is to try one out!! We are going to see what the Bronco can be capable of, and how it stacks up against a Jeep Wrangler. Of course the plans are to wheel it, review it, and then continue to add modifications and upgrades!
Back to the story... Cassie ordered the Bronco from Green Ford in Greensboro, NC. They were confident that they could get it ASAP, and they did! So after the phone call that it was ready for pickup, i hopped on a plane and then drove it back the next day.
I learned alot from the 18+hr drive in the new ford bronco, and i cant wait to share all of that with you. Im even more excited to take this offroad and see if it can compare with the great road manners that the Bronco offers.
We decided to get the Big Bend model with the Sasquatch package. This gives us the extra offroad upgrades that we talk about. Personally i think this package is worth the extra money since the gears and lockers especially are pricey to install aftermarket.

See you guys soon!
Dont worry jeep guys, i have a ton of Jeep projects that are on the way! - Авто та транспорт
At this rate you can turn that new barn in to a dealership.
Glad to see you both back and making another home. Have fun and be safe.
HAH!! LOVE IT!! I did the same exact thing! Big bend 2 door Sasquatch flew to Grand Praire Texas drove it home to Chicago area. 14 hours. Great memories for sure. Thanks for sharing! Great job.
Welcome to Oklahoma! We’re glad to have you guys here. Enjoy the friendly folks and all the great Jeep/4wd trails we have to offer. You can find any type of wheeling you want to do here. Hope to catch you on the trail sometime
Congrats on the new Bronco. I drove my 2Dr Badlands manual trans Bronco about 1300 miles the first week. Drove from Fort Worth to Kansas and back to see family and monster jam. Rides like a dream on the highway. 93 octane makes a difference also. Love y’all’s videos. Maybe we can all go wheeling sometime to see what these things can do.
Looks like a good time. Congratulations on the new ride.
Well time for SAS and tons lol……. So glad y’all are back to making videos can’t wait to see the trails near y’all and what the bronco can do
Dude! This is awesome! Been watching your channel for years… I ordered a bronco about a year ago, i should have it any day now…i still planned on keeping up with your videos, but this is even better. Lol
Awesome glad to see content again
I have the 2.7 ecoboost in my 2018 f-150 and I absolutely love it. Gets great mpg for a gas full size truck and has plenty of power.
im not a ford guy, but they did a good job with the bronco. ive seen a few here in SC at gulches offroad park. most of the time they are just sitting in the parking lot. i guess they dont want to get them dirty, who knows. the one i did see offroad, didnt fair so well on the harder trials compared to a Jeep of the same stature. most likely driver. on that note, glad yall are back and looking forward to the awesome builds as usual.
Wow congrats guys, looks sweet in red!
“My name is Cassie..... go to your channel! “ got me laughing 😂 You guys are awesome!!!
Congrats on the new Bronco!
Looking forward to the other videos and new features.
Great content and editing.
Awesome Bronco.
Glad to see someone who's been around the block do a review and drive of one
Congratulations on the new home and new bronco.
Holy hell 2.8k rpm at 70 mph up that hill. That is impressive. My 3.6 in the JT would be screaming lol
Fantastic!!! The IG teases have been strong. Great vid!
i'm very impressed with the bronco when i test drove it. i have one on order! hope to have it by next summer's wheeling season in Colorado.
Can’t wait to see your videos with the Bronco
Also cant wait to see it offroad! Your the first people I have been able to find that go offroad and are not scared. Most reviews/Videos on UA-cam for the New Bronco are not the typical off-roading.
there are plenty of videos of the Bronco the rubicon, Moab and hells revenge and all the trails there. Doing Black bear pass with flying colors.
@@pmurphy12667 That isn't what I meant by videos of it off-road. Im talking about (No, Not worrying about returning the vehicle undamaged, and not being biased about the brand of vehicle)
Paul I haven't seen any making it through those trails
We saw you that day. We were heading east from a day trip to Asheville and commented on how sharp the red looks. My dad said he still prefers his blue one.
Seen a nicely lifted one with wide stance hope you guys do sick mods!
Glad to see you guys are back. My folks live in SE Oklahoma. I think the cost of living and land prices make it a well kept secret if you are not tied to a corporate job. I saw that you left active duty USCG. I worked with the USCG for years on the Deepwater project which you may know was ther recaptitalization of all USCG assets designed to operate 50NM offshore. I bought my 2020 Mojave and have really enjoyed your channel and followed your advice.
Love the new Bronco...note, it was not available when I bought my Jeep JT Mojave. Might have given me cause for reflection. Or Not...I am a Jeep guy!
Note: I separated from the military sometime back to focus on my civillian career. Since that time I have advanced to the role of director leading commercial helicopter business operations.
So excited to see you guys back and focused on your strengths as UA-camrs. I always look forward to your next video. Keep up the good work. I am an Oklahoma State University grad...so Go Pokes!
Holy crap, I wondered where that one went. I work up in Greensboro on powerlines, and passed it everyday going down wendover avenue. That’s frigging rad!!
David here glad to see you back i was getting tired of watching Lite Brite nation i like how both of you do your own work
I live right down the street from that dealer! Excited to see this on the channel.
Lmao the joe/Alex clip was hilarious
Good looking truck. I hear the paint is thin and most off-roaders are wrapping them to save the paint from the dreaded rock chips. Looking forward to your upcoming reviews. Jim
Yeah with no mud flaps to stop the rocks you're going to have chipped paint.
Glad to see a new video
Can't wait to follow the build.
I got my Outer Banks 4 door 2.7 sasquatch received on 12/2 and only have 600miles. Our OBX came with the side steps Wich help tons with the rocks. They deflect the rocks being thrown.
Congratulations! I just got my big bend sasquatch in antimatter blue! Came in this past week. It's awesome! We'll worth the wait! For you, I'm sure it was well worth the drive!
Still loving it? My Cactus Grey BB SAS is supposed to be built at the end of Jan.
@@fullspeedfordbronco is so worth it! Be patient
I have that 2.7 eco-boost in my F150 and I love that motor.
Love the video! I would have done the same thing you did. Jump in and drive for days straight. Enjoy the truck yall
Saw a video showing bunch of things that were very similar in the interior, would be interesting to get your take!!
I am proud to say I build the Bronco and Rangers at Michigan assembly. I can't wait to get my hands on one.
Thanks to everyone who gets and reviews our trucks I enjoy watching these videos.
U.a.w local 900
You got my sub. Keep making em ill keep watching em
So cool! Can’t believe you got a Bronco! Nice
damn,13.9 hwy. Thats about what I get in my VK56 swapped xterra with 33s which is about the same power. Very cool rig though dude, alot of Nissan guys are looking into getting into them
Denton, TX is my stopping grounds brother! Nice Bronco!
Trying to figure out what project might be on that trailer. A jeep/Buggy build would be cool, and something I would love to see the two of you put together.
Talking about putting a ton of miles on a new vehicle right away...we were driving from San Diego to Boise area around Christmas '19 & my wife's SUV had some issues...we traded it in on the spot (Sacramento) & finished our drive the rest of the way to Idaho & then back to SD a week later...we had 2000k miles on the new vehicle in a heartbeat.
I love the lady's face in the beginning around 2:53 and she definitely checking it out. I have orders for both the Rubicon X 4xe (in a different state) and the Bronco Badlands with Sas. I'm 90% sure I'm going with the Bronco...but it's always good to be surprised by yourself. Great video.
My Patagonias were like that when new with rocks here in AZ. I always feel bad for those behind me lol.
Dude… Greensboro, my home town. My first in person was the 2 dr Big Bend there. Just took delivery on 12/4 from Asheboro Ford of my 4 dr Badlands 4.7 L mid/tow pack.
My wife purchased on for her flower deliver business and she loves it. The ride is a bouncy and noisy but other
than that she is very happy.
That thing is gigantic! Your gonna have to put 40's on it to get it to look as cool as a Wrangler with 35s. LOL Kudos on the new ride, can't wait to see you wheelin' it.
Haven’t seen a red bronco yet and now that I’ve seen this one, it’s my favorite color on the bronco
Yeah this color really grew on us
Ooooooh snap! Like it ……. I’m a jeep guy myself. Dam it Ben and Cas…… I like it 😎
I got my black diamond 2022 bronco about a month ago. used 33000 miles. great deal. me and girl live in Yellowstone Wyoming. the bronco was in bozman Montana. first day 100miles we had to stop to eat tacos in a bronco. We drive far every weekend getting about 21.3 miles per gallon. I installed the K&N air filter a must upgrade. love the color on yalls
Now you need to hit the after market up for some improvements. I've heard that the soft top whistles as you go down the road.
Looks great!
I got 20.5 mpg in my 2.7 sas in eco mode on 93 octane. 300 mile around trip to the mountains and back. I haven't really been checking otherwise. Try 93 octane if you're not using it.
I didn’t opt for the Sasquatch package. Work 400 miles from where I live. Was a bit worried when I saw 13.9mpg. But hearing you say 20.5 makes me much happier lol
@ TripleB No you didn't.
Not on 35s
I just ordered mine last week. I went cheap Big Bend rear locker Hot pepper red
Saw you at the sheetz in Kernersville, cool stuff
I am getting the Bronco after driving one at Overland expo west. So much nicer than any jeep and just as capable if not more capable off the show room floor
Drove by close were I live . Remeber High Peak Mt with tower and antennas on top on I-40 Drexel exit 107 . Seen in video going up Black Mtn past Old Fort . NC look on maps Andrews Guyser . Yeah I drive truck that's long way in 4x4 .
I have a base Sasquatch 4 door with the 2.3. More than enough power and I average 17.5 - 18 mpg. Love it and it fits me way better than a wrangler as I am a tall guy.
How tall you are? and what are the biggest diffrences?

First thing's first CONGRATS on your new Bronco!!! I love the color! I have owned 2 jeep wranglers, and the badlands bronco that I just purchased hands down is better than any jeep that I've had. With that said, my jeeps were not a Rubicon. Like your Bronco isn't a badlands or a first addition. You can't compare a Jeep Rubicon to outer banks. The badlands or first addition are in that class. My wife purchased an outer banks without the sasquatch package. If my wife had purchased a jeep, she would have purchased the Sahara as she uses her bronco for a daily driver. I, on the other hand, love to drive off road so you know I've purchased everything that's available for the new Bronco. I like the way your wife ordered her new Bronco with the sasquatch package. I agree with you on the way it looks with that package. It completely changes the way her bronco looks. Again, CONGRATS!🇺🇲
Anyone specifically at Green Ford you’d recommend to work with? Was happy hear you say you had a good experience there. I may need to transfer my reservation and considering SE dealerships.
Throw the darn frisbee for the dog! lol :P That being said, nice Bronco.
I don't typically ask, but how much did this run you guys? I just found a Bronco with the Sasquatch package for (I think) a decent price, but curious what you paid.
Nice rig I'm a Ford guy all the way but I'll keep my old 93 f150 because I can work on it myself and cheap parts
Nice, Love the color. I estimated about $264 in gas for the total trip.
Did you try recalibrating the trip meter? I've seen others say they get very low mileage but once you reset it it will be a more accurate number
I thought rock sliders were part of the Sasquatch package? Nice looking rig. Look forward to your opinion and comparing it to the Jeep. Good luck in the new home.
Badlands and black diamond have the sliders I believe.
God im so jealous i live in north Carolina and where you picked the bronco. i live 20 minutes away from that dealership
When did you make the drive back home? I passed a red 4dr bronco with a soft top and 35s on 64W in Indiana about a week ago
walgreens can transfer prescriptions to your local store, no need to drive to texas for that! you just wanted to drive the bronco another 3 hours.
also... so many vehicles, I would go insane with the upkeep (and car notes) but good for you guys!
I'd really like to see you guys do an off road comparison between your jeeps and the bronco, as close to apples to apples as you can get.
Broncos are breaking off road because of the IFS
@@fxrsniper1 so do jeeps what's your point
@@ljbenziger You clearly missed the point as the guy running the Bronco even proved moderate things were breaking the steering I've never seen a jeep breaking that many times on moderate to easy stuff.
There are no apples to apples comparison between a Jeep and a Bronco. For most people the Bronco is enough.
Probably same results lite brite had, took their jeep, her new stock bronco, a friend's mid level modded and another full modded, which snapped a lower control arm with the usual resulting collateral damage, was done for the day at the first obstacle, mid level modded made it bout halfway thru the ride with winch scrapping issues couple times till a broke tie rod finished its day,was actually impressed that her totally stock one did the best, everything I've seen is another reused name for sales purposes and strictly a soccer mom mallcrawler till they get the extreme weak front end figured out
That's a Jeep LJ on the trailer??? I wont a LJ so bad but I settled for a 09 JK two door manual color- Green. It was imported or sold in Canada and brought back to the U.S.. It has import stickers on the drivers door.. The 3.8 is so underpowered but the manual does help it a bit.. It has 175,000 miles soo maybe it will blow and ill Hemi swap it or LS it so I can keep the manual.. O and nice new rig love the red.. You will slowly start to love and hate the Ford Bronco just like the Jeeps. They are fun to do stuff in so we tend to overlook the small issues.
Dude, I haven’t watched your videos for a little while, you were living down in south Texas last time I checked, so I’m watching this because the Bronco of course. Bronco Looks awesome! You look slimmer too, you still in the service?
Dude I had no idea you were in Oklahoma. I live by Shawnee. Building up a Gladiator and just starting my own channel. Maybe someday we can meet up! That’s awesome.
First thing I thought was, ah man he got rid of the LJ. Good to know the Jeeps are staying or I'd unsubscribed ;).
I'm a Jeep guy too, but I do like the new Bronco. Look forward to see its build and the mystery vehicle you have.
Congrats nice bronco
Now that you have had it for a while
What moter 2.3 or 2.7 and what is your average mpg
On the highway at higher speeds truely how is the noise and is it hard or frustrating to talk on the Bluetooth or the person next to you
Good review
Love New Bronco ❤️
Can’t wait to see what the Bronco can do. I have had many new vehicles and never have I had a burning smell. I have test drove even more new vehicles and I wanted to see what they could do and gave it all it had on many occasions and never had the dealer said, please do drive this way. But it is a Ford.
Sometimes they forget to remove some of the plastic wrappings when you buy new happened with my wife's RAV4 we took it back to the dealership thinking something was wrong but they told us that and give it a couple of days we got it brand new fresh off the truck
Mine had a burning smell as well for the first 500 or so. Been great so far. 3000 miles in
@@62chad76 maybe it is a Bronco thing because they failed to remove something, because no one else is smelling a burning smell from their now vehicle.
Nice!
sorry not a Rubicon model Bronco....that would be the Badlands version that has the front disconnect. Great job on the introduction looking forward to see what she does with it.
LMAO at the dog throwing the frisbee 🤣🤣
I've never been a Ford guy, but for the money, the Bronco had more to offer than a JL so I made my reservation in August 2020 and converted to order in March of 2021 (4 door Wildrak, 2.7, SAS, LUX, tow) and with the issues with the MIC top, delays so that it couldn't get made in 2020 and no idea when I can realistically expect it in 2021, and the fact that my dealer couldn't even return my phone calls or emails regarding rolling it over to a MY22 build...I cancelled my order and ordered a JL Xtreme Recon. Ford just solidified the fact that I've never been a Ford guy, and most likely I won't take the risk again.
Toyota Tacoma struggling as always! Love your Bronco.
Ok, I want to see the Bronco in stock form go up Rock Face (right side, obviously not the middle) at Crossbar Ranch.
I had a bronco back in the day and had a V-8 America🇺🇸
Did Goodyear get rid of the wrangler on the tires for ford?
Nice Job! Most people don't remember to break in periods and just hammer the throttle then they wonder why they vehicle has slight problems down the road.
Worked for a dealership almost 11 years. Extremely rare to see a driveline failure that wasn't neglect. Break in is done by the manufacturer.
Should've stayed around long enough to hit Uwharrie again. I would've gone with you. I live 20 minutes south of Greensboro
So MSRP? Over? Under? Curious b/c im looking for one here in SoFLo There are Zer0 Broncs on the lots but if they do get (1) its way over MSRP-
Cool Video!! Oh are you keeping the soft top? Are u happy with it ?
Great video. What color is this?
Love people talking about break in period with new vehicles. I have never done this with any of my new vehicles, and that is because I never knew about a break in of a new vehicle. The only vehicle i might follow a break in would be with a high performance muscle car/sports car.
Man, you stopped in Kernersville, I *hope* you got a hot dog at the Dario right there near sheetz! lol
Hey man! Just watched this last video, great to see y’all back and stuff. Curious though? At the end of this video you air quoted and said this was equivalent to a “rubicon” - NOOOOOO the Badlands is the Rubicon Equivilent, Big Bend? That’s the Sport S, Sasquatch gives it lockers! Badlands has the Swaybar disconnect, 33’s - front and rear lockers. So compare yours to the sport!
I don’t see how any model with the Sasquatch can be compared to a sport.
35s”, gears, lockers is nothing the sport would offer, whereas the Rubicon does.
It’s hard to compare a wrangler model because adding the “Sasquatch” isn’t an option with jeep models.
@@JKGearandGadgets I understand, the Sasquatch is putting it up there. But to compare trims without Sasquatch, that’s where they are aligned. Badlands is close to to Rubicon due to the 33’s and lockers, Outerbanks is like the Sahara, leather trimmed, body colored fenders. Black Diamond to a Willys Wheeler I would suppose. But Ford ads the Sasquatch package to any trim which increases capability. But by trim levels alone, it’s about a Sport S. I think it’s a great vehicle in any variant, I had a 2012 JKU Sport with 238000+ miles I traded in for the Bronco.
Good video, however the badlands is the model to compare against the Rubicon!!
RokBlokz mud flaps! First mod I did on my 2022 Bronco 2 dr!
I don’t know about those engines, but with the LS engine in Chevys there are no break in periods for the engine, with roller lifters there is no need of a break in period, now there were for flat tappet cams, in older engines
Hell yeah! Welcome to the club. Congratulations. Can't wait to see what you guys do with it.
Nice, cannot wait to see what y'all do with this build. I agree there is a lot Jeep can learn from the new Bronco, might be the fire Jeep needs to light under their butts.
How would you compare interior noise compared to your gladiator? None available to test here and wondering before flying to get one. Just got rid of my gladiator rubicon with hard top and wondering how much more noise these have.
Louder than the JT hardtop for sure
Hello: 15 MPG ,,Not that Bad. They got plenty money. I don't spend unnecessarily !!! My 2017 with 31'' tires unlimited gets 20, I would like more... My 4X4 Ram 4 door gets 15 MPG, it's heavy !!!
