We Bought the 'Best' Ford Bronco Nobody Wants: The Everglades

The Hunt for the Ideal Bronco

• 🎯 The team set out to find the "best" Ford Bronco that is surprisingly unpopular, aiming for a capable off-road vehicle.
• 🔍 They explored various trims at Brighton Ford, including the Black Diamond (Sasquatch package), Outer Banks, and a base model, evaluating their features and price points.
• 💡 The Black Diamond with Sasquatch package was considered for its off-road capability but deemed too pricey at $58,755.
• 🚫 The Outer Banks was dismissed for its less aggressive tires, and the base model was ruled out due to its lack of features and higher-than-expected price.

Discovering the Everglades

• ✨ The Ford Bronco Everglades, a trim discontinued for 2025, emerged as the chosen vehicle, despite its poor sales.
• 🛠️ This trim is highlighted as a hardcore off-road Bronco with factory-integrated features like a Warn winch, a snorkel, and a roof rack.
• 🌊 It boasts enhanced water fording capabilities due to raised diff and trans breathers, and a raised air intake.
• 🌲 The Everglades comes standard with the Sasquatch package, including 35-inch tires and rocker protection.

Why the Everglades is Underrated

• 📉 The Everglades was not popular due to its four-cylinder engine and basic interior compared to other trims, leading many to opt for more luxurious or powerful options.
• 💰 Priced around $57,000 (purchased for $55,000 as a leftover 2024 model), it was considered expensive for a four-cylinder without premium features like power seats or a heated steering wheel.
• 💨 While lacking some driver assistance features and the disconnectable sway bar, it offers substantial off-road prowess with front and rear lockers.
• 🌿 The interior features vinyl floors and floor drains, making it easy to clean, and includes heated seats and dual-zone climate control.
