🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

[Nikki-BDSQ22]

Same here Mods popped early yesterday and pizza tracker popped up with an estimated delivery of 2/1. Since that change there has been no change. Get my hopes up and run them over with a Bronco Sport! And if the railroad goes on strike I'll drive to the plant and pick the thing up

Same here.

Near you guys also. Live in Lake Zurich. Work in Mount Prospect.

No updates after built . Est delivery 1/16 - 1/20 or 1/22 can't remember lol

Nice! It looks like all 3 of us have a similar delivery window, maybe we will all be on the same truck!

Side note - but does anyone buying a Cactus Grey OuterBanks want to swap their painted door handles for the MIC ones that now come on the Wildtrak?

My handles will have the smart key/proximity sensors in them.

Just thought that I would try before buying a set. Thanks everyone!

Bronco delivery question. Is anyone else NOT planning to personally pick up their bronco at the dealership? I live 4.5 hours away and for my wife and I to fly, possibly spend the night, and all the time and other expenses, I can have her picked up and delivered to my door for less. Plus my dealership has been less than accommodating so I have no need or desire to cultivate that relationship. Is this unreasonable?

I’ll drive it down for you . I need to go visit my brother in Houston anyways.

And hopefully real soon!

The Base doesn't exist anymore.

Yea I’ve been seeing that. Is it confirmed?

Is this confirmed and does anyone know what it means for those of us that have a Base model reserved?
I have a 2-door Base waiting to be built -but it is pretty far down the line as it wasn’t reserved / ordered until June 2021 and it’s with Granger….

It’s just a website glitch. Base isn’t going anywhere.

Even if my rig went to QC for some reason, what takes a week to address?!? I didn’t get the side graphics either…very nerve racking!!

OK 1/03 peeps. I just got home I was at the dealership way longer than I thought and then had a long drive home and was able to get very acquainted with Red. She drives like a fricken damn 2-door dream!

Few things I noticed while driving:
1. The turn radius on this thing is ridiculous I love it. I will be able to park in any mall parking lot in the contiguous US with no problems. It turns like a zero riding lawnmower.
2. I can steer with my knees while digging through my purse looking for my mint Blistex with ease.
3. Don’t mind the copious amounts of dog hair on my sweater. I blame my mom‘s adorable German Shepherd puppy.
4. I was surprised with the amount of road noise in the cabin while highway driving. It was pretty loud. Could be from my rack but it was difficult to have a phone conversation using the car speakers. I had to use my earbuds and they mention they can hear wind noise pretty loudly. So maybe somewhere down the road they’ll have a better sound deadening headliner?
5. She likes to drink the petrol… she loves it! i’ll be interested to see where it lands when it comes to miles per gallon.
6. Love the 12 inch screen. No surprise there. Size does matter.
By the time I pulled in the driveway it was getting pretty dark so I will have more updates in the next few days but these are my 195 miles worth of observation while driving today.

Sweet ride, I have the same build minus the roof rack and the safari bar with a current build week of 1/31. It's for my wife, replacing her 2009 H3

I have the base door handles, however if you decide to sell them, let me know!

I sure hope not. It almost wouldn’t make sense for Ford as then they would have to advertise a much higher starting price for the Bronco which would put it way above a Wrangler Sport (even though it is a much nicer vehicle than the Jeep). But also, when you look at what the Base comes with - and what you are getting with a Base Sasquatch ($37k with automatic) - it’s crazy what it is for the price, especially when you compare it to a $55-60k Bronco that essentially only has fancier finishes.

DIY Roof Rack "faring"

This is a classic diy backwoods solution for roof rack wind noise.

Same idea with thinner cord and more production value invested:
