Yay! She's BOOTIFUL!
The dealership didn't want to take any delivery pictures for their social media as it was covered in dirt. I told them I would send them some nice pictures after I am done cleaning her up.

First day of the Bronco Experience

The Dealership, Gullo Ford of Conroe, lived up to all expectations, no shenanigans' at all.
Everything was as I asked with no complications.
We spent about an hour going over @Cat OCD List and my List of Do’s and Don’ts.
We found zero issues on the list, and we did check all that we could.

The Bronco was not washed as per my request, so that I really appreciated.

They knew about the Customer Satisfaction Program, and I got $500.00 in credit for Ford Accessors with I used. I got my MIC hardtop Credit for model year change $ 695.00. The applied the points for Ford Pass, but it might take a bit to show on my side. They did beat my APR from my local credit union, so I went with their Finance through their lender at an exceptional rate.

My Initial thoughts is the Bronco is a big beast, but not unreasonable. The wife didn’t want to drive it, so she drove back in the Raptor. 😊

The seating is great with lots of adjustments and I fit well, I was impressed. The steering wheel seems smaller that I am used to, but it only took a few minutes to get used to it.

It drove awesome, plenty of power once I remembered how to put it into Sport Mode 😊. The display is amazing, I wish my other trucks was nice. The Wireless Apple Play was easy to setup and worked perfect.

I did find the wind noise at the windshield was more than I like. I will need to figure out where the wind is getting through and see if there is a solution.

We picked her up with 12 miles and got home at 100 miles on the odometer.

We made one stop by a friend’s house to show her off. They ordered a bronco the same day we did and not even a VIN # yet. They are much happier waiting now and agree it is worth the wait.

She drove like a dream, no complaints on anything. Lots of power, very tight steering, stays in the lane perfectly. All the tech was fun.

It was a bit chilly but I had to get all that dirt and debris off of the Bronco so I can spend some time tomorrow cleaning the interior and seeing about adding some of my goodies I have ordered.

I think she cleaned up nicely for my initial treatment.

She is all put away for the night and will get some more TLC tomorrow.

Congratulations !! You have been so generous with your updates and advice and these photos! So good to see the three of you finally hooked up!

Good to know about
driving home on the freeway in Sport mode. I was just RTFMg the modes to figure that out.

As my grandmother used to say, "Use it in good health!"

I missed tracking stuff, so I ordered a new desk chair. It was shipping just 500 miles from NY to VA. Except, not kidding, it got misrouted and sent to France.

Well Sharl d' Gaul (as it's pronounced in French) does sound a bit like Charlotte(s)ville :LOL:

seeing about adding some of my goodies I have ordered.
What goodies did you order with and/or beyond the Customer Satisfaction allowance?
