    2023 Ford Bronco Big Bend: Your Passport to Central Illinois Adventure

    Imagine starting your Saturday morning in Champaign, IL, grabbing a coffee downtown before heading out to explore the hidden trails and scenic backroads that define our region. The 2023 Ford Bronco Big Bend is designed for exactly these moments, offering the perfect blend of modern capability and open-air freedom. Whether you are navigating the bustling streets of a vibrant college town or seeking the quiet solitude of the surrounding prairie, this Oxford White Bronco provides a commanding presence and the mechanical grit to handle any detour you decide to take. It is more than just a commuter; it is a tool for those who view every drive as an opportunity to discover something new in the heart of Illinois.

    Performance & Capability

    Under the hood of this 2023 Ford Bronco Big Bend lies the potent EcoBoost 2.7L V-6 engine, featuring port and direct injection with twin turbochargers to deliver a robust 315HP. This power is managed by a sophisticated 10-speed automatic transmission, ensuring that whether you are cruising toward Decatur, IL or navigating the agricultural corridors near Arcola, IL, the power delivery is smooth and responsive. The Four Wheel Drive system features a Part Time Selectable Engagement and a Two-Speed Transfer Case, allowing you to adapt to changing surface conditions on the fly.

    The foundation of this Bronco is built for durability, utilizing an Iron engine block and a Longitudinal mounted engine configuration. The ride quality is governed by the HOSS 1.0 off-road ride suspension, which pairs a Short and Long Arm Front Suspension w/Coil Springs with a Solid Axle Rear Suspension. This setup provides the articulation needed for off-pavement excursions while maintaining composure on the highway. With the Terrain Management System, you can select specific drive modes to optimize traction, while the Engine Auto Stop-Start Feature helps manage fuel consumption during frequent stops in more urban environments.

    Technology & Connectivity

    Staying connected while exploring the rural beauty of Shelbyville, IL is effortless thanks to the advanced SYNC 4 system. This interface features a 8 inch primary display touchscreen that serves as the hub for your media and vehicle settings. With Smart device integration for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, your favorite navigation apps and playlists are mirrored wirelessly, keeping the cabin clutter-free. The Digital/analog instrumentation display includes an 8.00-inch gauge cluster, providing vital vehicle data at a glance.

    Communication is handled safely via Bluetooth wireless audio streaming and handsfree wireless device connectivity, allowing you to keep your hands on the Steering wheel mounted audio controls. For long-distance trips, the Connected Navigation system with voice activation ensures you find your destination without hassle. Passengers can keep their devices powered through any of the 4 USB ports located throughout the cabin. Additionally, the Audio Volume Limiter and Programmable Sound Chimes allow you to customize the auditory environment to suit your preferences.

    Comfort & Interior

    The interior of the Big Bend is finished in CLOTH GRAY/BLACK SEATS with Vinyl front seat upholstery, a combination chosen for its durability and ease of cleaning after a day outdoors. The cabin is designed for utility, featuring a Locking floor console storage and 2nd Row Underseat Storage to keep your valuables secure. On chilly Illinois mornings, the Heated driver and front passenger seats provide immediate warmth, while the Dual-zone front climate control and voice-activated climate control ensure everyone stays comfortable regardless of the weather outside.

    Practicality is woven into every detail, from the 120V AC power outlet to the Mini Overhead Console w/Storage. The 60-40 Folding Split-Bench rear seats allow for flexible cargo configurations, easily accessed through the Swing-out rear cargo door. The driver benefits from a Leather and metal-look steering wheel and a Leather and metal-look gear shifter, adding a touch of refinement to the rugged interior. With Remote start capabilities and Keyfob keyless entry, the Bronco is ready to go as soon as you are.

    Safety & Driver Assistance

    Safety is paramount, and the 2023 Bronco is equipped with Ford Co-Pilot360 technology to provide peace of mind on every journey. The BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) and Cross-Traffic Alert act as an extra set of eyes when changing lanes or backing out of tight parking spots. To help prevent accidents before they happen, the Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection and Forward collision warning monitor the road ahead, while the Lane-Keeping System helps keep you centered during long drives.

    In the event of an unavoidable situation, the Post-Collision Braking system automatically applies brake pressure to reduce the risk of a secondary impact. The vehicle is protected by a comprehensive 6 airbag system, including the Safety Canopy System curtain airbags for both rows. Additional driver aids like Rear parking sensors, a Rear mounted camera, and Driver Alert monitor attention levels and proximity to obstacles, making maneuvers in crowded areas much simpler.

    Exterior & Design

    The OXFORD WHITE exterior paint gives this Bronco a clean, classic look that highlights its iconic boxy silhouette. It sits proudly on 17-inch Carbonized Gray-Painted Aluminum wheels wrapped in P255/75SR17 AT BSW tires, with a Full-size spare tire mounted prominently on the rear. The Gray Grille and Black fender flares provide a rugged contrast, while the LED SIGNATURE LIGHTING and LED front fog lights ensure excellent visibility in all conditions.

    One of the most defining features of this model is the Hard Top in Gray Molded-In-Color, which includes a Removable sunroof and targa composite sunroof panels for the first and second rows. This allows you to quickly transform the vehicle for an open-air experience. Functional additions like the Powder Coated Tube Steps, 2 front tow hooks, and Trailer Sway Control emphasize that this vehicle is built for work and play alike. Active grille shutters also work behind the scenes to optimize aerodynamics and cooling efficiency.

      1st Bronco = A+

      by Brandon on 4/14/2026 10:37:07 AM

      I spent months reading reviews comparing the Jeep Wrangler and the Ford Bronco. The general consensus was the Bronco is easier to live with as a daily driver. I purchased a Bronco 1.5 years ago to consolidate my SUV and Convertible into one vehicle. It's been a dream to own thus far. Highs +Adaptive cruise control, easy to move down the freeway with minimal effort + Steering - nicely weighted, even after 40k miles goes down road in straight line +Styling - people always tell me how sharp the Bronco looks +Top down - awesome to put 4 other people in and hit the road +Removing hard top - not difficult, can be done by one person +Snow - feels secure and planted in NE Ohio winter snow +Comfort - Seats are great for long road trips +Stereo - Bang and O stereo sounds fantastic +Controls - thankful for buttons and not just screens +Gas Mileage - can average in the low-mid 20's if driven cautiously + Seat warmers - hot hot hot +Room - feels much less cramped inside than Jeep Wrangler Lows -Wind Noise can be pronounced, but not anything I can't live with -Hard top is sensitive, be careful removing it you can scratch and damage it -Windshield - because of steep angle, they like to get chipped / cracked -Interior - materials look a little cheap for a 55k vehicle (except seats = so nice) -2.3L engine - doesn't sound great, but does a great job of moving you forward If you're going to be a commuter, I recommend the Outer Banks model because it comes with the least aggressive tires. It also has body colored fender flares and just looks fantastic. I bought a black one with the black painted hard top. It is quite the looker. Also, get the High/Lux package so you get the Bang and Olfusen stereo, 360 degree camera, and adaptive cruise control. I usually change vehicles every 1-2 years, but I absolutely love this one and plan to keep it until the new model comes out. The fact that it was designed and built in America also speaks to me. The Bronco community and number of people that admire this vehicle will really surprise you. After nearly 40,000 miles I am firmly in the Bronco camp and plan to stay here for awhile!…

      Great vehicle!

      I have a 2024 Ford Bronco Outer Banks with the 2.3L. No issues at all. Drove it across country and it was comfortable. I bought mine with a hard top because I live in a climate with snow and wanted more security. I would recommend it.…

      Great Vehicle

      by Dave on 12/10/2025 1:18:28 AM

      I looked at the Bronco for the past 3 years. I purchased the Badlands 2.7 liter 5 months ago and love it. Rides well, is quiet, and handles as expected. Absolutely no regrets.…
