Ford Bronco drops Vermont Off-Roadeo site after locals object



Buyers of the 2021 Ford Bronco, as well as those who purchase the top-spec Badlands version of the 2021 Ford Bronco Sport, earn entry to a one-and-a-half-day trail-riding experience at a Bronco Off-Roadeo. Ford has advertised four Off-Roadeo locations in Vermont, Texas, Utah, and Nevada, but is now withdrawing from the Vermont site after local residents objected.

The Vermont location, in South Pomfret, was to be on the site of the Suicide Six ski resort and operate during the off-season. Suicide Six is part of the Woodstock Inn and Resort, and the Off-Roadeo was to be operated by a company called Adventure ORX. According to a report in Valley News, Woodstock Inn and Resort had submitted an application to the Vermont Natural Resources Board stating that the off-road driving school would use a two-mile loop of maintenance and logging roads on the resort's property.
