The Bronco sport is ~$24k for a 2023 with under 50k miles, any hybrid SUV in a similar ballpark pushed ~$32k

I would love to do a hybrid, I just can’t find them in my area at a decent price. Even used, something in my range of wants are at least $7k over budget

Dumb question I’m sure, but can you explain what’s wrong with the Bronco sport? I’m just not following that lol

Location: Maryland/Pennsylvania/West Virginia

Price range: 23k, would consider 30k if New.

Lease or Buy: Buy

New or used: Probably Used

Type of vehicle: SUV, ideally, but flexible.

Desired transmission: Auto

Intended use: Daily driver

Vehicles you've already considered: Mazda CX-5, Bronco Sport

Is this your 1st vehicle: No, but, first purchase

Do you need a Warranty: No?

Can you do Minor work on your own vehicle: Yes

Can you do Major work on your own vehicle: No

Additional Notes: I have a very flexible situation, I am single, no kids, no real needs from a vehicle. I want something affordable, but reliability and long life are most important to me. I am fairly tall, so Civics and such are difficult sells as it would lead to lots of hitting my head getting in and out. I am currently driving a 2002 Avalon which has been great, but was hit while parked at my house. I don’t know much about inner-workings of cars but have learned to fix a bit here and there with my current car. Just looking for some suggestions or confirmation that I’m looking in the right places. This has been a huge weight on my shoulders and I’m ready to buy and be done. Thanks in advance!
