Howdy Alabama, John and other distinguished gentlemen.. Well I have committed to buying a new Bronco.. So I will be in debt for another 6 years. Getting rid of the Flex and getting a decent trade-in amount for it..

I finish the deal on Monday Morning.. I have enough equity in the Flex to not change my payments, or what I am paying now.

It is the 4 door Bronco Sport Big Bend.. The least expensive.. The one I got has a package with heated seats, heated steering wheel, electric drivers seat and fog lights.

We really enjoy the heated seat and steering wheel up here, this is the first car I've owned with those features and don't think I'd do without again if I'm ever forced to buy a new vehicle..

2024 Ford Bronco Sport Big Bend for sale in Wentzville, MO at Clement Auto  Group | VIN: 3FMCR9B63RRE73229

This one is a 2024 but I'd imagine there isn't much difference..?

Some of those buttons will work the radio, other the information like tire pressure ,trip distance. There is enough to confuse a person...lol
I still haven't used the Navigation system on our car, never opened the sun roof. There is too much that can distract you if you play while driving...lol

It was missing adaptive cruise control, AWD and the backup camera wasn't working. It did have memory driver seat, Power liftgate and leather seats..

21.6 mpg verses 27 mpg
