The Bronco is quite the SUV
The Ford Bronco is one of the biggest SUVs out there – it’s so huge in fact, that the Raptor version needs special features to legally hit the road.
But Broncos aren’t the only model to suffer.
One Ford F-150 owner demonstrated just how much it would cost to fill up his tank.
And after splashing out $1000, it still wasn’t full.
So, just how much does it cost to refuel the tank on one of these bad boys?
Well, despite the elaborate reaction, we don’t actually know – as the full price is never actually mentioned.
But due to the powerhouse of an engine that lies beneath the hood – we can only imagine it wouldn’t be a cheap bill.
One creator – @kylieraeirwin – joked ‘$30,000’ as she took her wheels to get some juice.
She says the car was new, so we’re guessing that she hadn’t yet footed the gas bill.
The 2025 Bronco carries a fuel tank capacity of a whopping 16.9 gallons – although do bear in mind that the total can fluctuate with year and model.
And with gas stations only ever increasing their prices – depending on where you fill up, it could end up costing you quite the sum.
But what other flashy features does the Bronco carry?
Well, let’s start with the off-roading perks, like ‘Trail Control’ and ‘Trail Turn Assist‘, and move on to the 3,500-pound towing capacity.
But, with EVs becoming increasingly popular, maybe the best way to save cash is to hop over into fully electric territory, and say goodbye to the gas station for good.
One motorist did just this said he managed to save a mighty $1800 after swapping to a Cybertruck – all in just six months.
The Bronco sure is a nice car.
Just maybe not an ideal daily driver if you’re trying to save a few bucks, eh?
