2026 Ford Bronco in Excelsior Springs, MO
From W. Jesse James Road to Highway 69, downtown Broadway to Lake Maurer Road, the 2026 Ford Bronco feels right at home in Excelsior Springs. Explore Bronco trims, EcoBoost engines, Sasquatch capability, manual-transmission options and available inventory at Chuck Anderson Ford.
A Ford Bronco Built for Life in Excelsior Springs
A capable SUV makes a lot of sense when your daily drive can include historic downtown streets, Missouri highways, changing weather and weekends outside the city.
Excelsior Springs isn't a place where every road and every drive feels the same. You might start the morning near W. Jesse James Road, head toward US Highway 69, cut across MO Route 10, spend an afternoon downtown near Broadway Avenue and Main Street, and finish the day heading out toward more rural roads around Clay and Ray counties.
That's exactly the kind of environment where the 2026 Ford Bronco makes sense. Standard 4x4, available 35-inch Sasquatch tires, multiple EcoBoost engines, removable doors and roof configurations, and a choice between everyday-friendly trims and extreme off-road models let you build a Bronco around the way you actually live.
And when you're ready to see one in person, Chuck Anderson Ford is right here in town at 1910 W Jesse James Road, Excelsior Springs, MO 64024.
From Jesse James Road to Highway 69: A Bronco for Local Driving
Daily Driving Around Excelsior Springs
For normal trips along Jesse James Road, Highway 69, Highway 10, Lynn Road/Tiger Drive, Titus Avenue, Old Orchard Road and North Kansas City Avenue, you don't necessarily need the most extreme Bronco available.
A Bronco Big Bend or Bronco Outer Banks can give you standard Bronco 4x4 capability while focusing more heavily on everyday comfort, technology and usability.
When the Pavement Ends
Drive outside the core of Excelsior Springs and the landscape changes quickly. Rural routes, gravel roads, uneven surfaces, mud, snow and recreational trips are where Bronco's more serious hardware starts to earn its keep.
That's where Badlands , Stroppe Edition and Sasquatch-equipped Broncos become especially interesting.
Bronco Meets Historic Excelsior Springs
One of the things that makes Excelsior Springs different from a generic Kansas City suburb is the character of the city itself. Downtown developed around the mineral-water era and today remains centered around Main Street and Broadway Avenue, with the historic Hall of Waters and The Elms Hotel & Spa helping define the community.
A Bronco fits that character surprisingly well. It's modern, but intentionally connected to its heritage. It's capable without needing to look like every other crossover in the parking lot. Remove the roof, pull the doors, choose a Heritage Edition or build a Sasquatch-equipped trail rig—the Bronco lets the owner decide what kind of vehicle it becomes.

Choosing a Bronco Engine in Excelsior Springs
2.3L EcoBoost
Up to 300 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque on premium fuel.
It's also the only 2026 Bronco engine available with the 7-speed manual transmission.
Ideal if you want excellent configuration flexibility and the ability to row your own gears heading down Highway 10 or out of town for the weekend.
2.7L EcoBoost V6
Up to 330 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque on premium fuel.
The 2.7L is paired with the 10-speed automatic and provides a substantial increase in torque over the 2.3L.
It's a particularly appealing option if you want a stronger V6 Outer Banks, Badlands or Heritage Edition—or the standard powertrain in Stroppe.
3.0L EcoBoost V6
The top Bronco engine belongs exclusively to Bronco Raptor.
It produces up to 418 horsepower and 440 lb-ft of torque and is paired with the Raptor's high-performance chassis.
This is the choice when you're not simply looking for a Bronco—you're looking for the most extreme factory Bronco.
A Bronco for Missouri Weather
Rain
Standard 4x4 capability gives Bronco drivers another tool for changing road conditions around town and on rural routes outside Excelsior Springs.
Snow & Ice
When winter conditions hit Jesse James Road, Highway 69, Route 10 or neighborhood streets, Bronco's 4x4 systems and available terrain-management technology add capability.
Proper tires remain critical regardless of drivetrain.
Perfect-Weather Days
When Missouri gives us one of those days where you actually want to be outside, the removable roof and doors are arguably Bronco's best features.
Yes, You Can Still Buy a Manual Bronco in Excelsior Springs
One of the biggest reasons the Bronco remains different from most modern SUVs is that Ford still gives enthusiasts a manual-transmission option.
The 2.3L EcoBoost can be paired with Ford's 7-speed manual transmission on applicable trims. It includes six conventional forward gears plus a dedicated low-ratio crawler gear.
If the idea of shifting your own Bronco on the way out of downtown, along Highway 10 or toward the rural roads beyond Excelsior Springs sounds better than another generic automatic crossover, start your search with the 2.3L.
Should You Buy a Sasquatch Bronco in Excelsior Springs?
What Sasquatch Adds
- 35-inch-class tires
- Electronic-locking front axle
- Electronic-locking rear axle
- 4.7 final drive ratio
- High-clearance suspension hardware
- More aggressive Bronco stance
Is It Worth It Locally?
If most of your driving stays between home, work and downtown Excelsior Springs, you don't need Sasquatch to enjoy a Bronco.
But if your weekends include rural property, gravel roads, hunting, camping, trail use or you simply want the unmistakable 35-inch-tire Bronco appearance, it becomes a much easier package to justify.
Built for More Than the Commute
Excelsior Springs puts you close to a lot more than city streets.
A Bronco makes just as much sense parked near the Hall of Waters or The Elms as it does loaded with gear for a weekend outside town.
Excelsior Springs is also within easy reach of destinations such as Watkins Mill State Park and State Historic Site and the Jesse James Farm & Museum. For owners who spend their weekends exploring instead of sitting at home, the Bronco's combination of cargo flexibility, 4x4 capability and open-air design gives it a purpose beyond simply getting to work.
