That's the plan.

Sitting around talking to the dealers while paperwork was being ran. They informed me that the F-150 Lightning has 100 orders and they have an allotment of 3. Not to mention they’ll probably only get 1 or 2 Bronco Raptor allotments. It’s all crazy whe you consider they had so many Bronco allotments. I probably won’t be buying cord stock anytime soon. All in all though I love my new ride. Well worth the year and a half wait.

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.

Big knob on the center console , after flipping through various settings on the sreens I was like, this has be be easier... then 💡 duh, use the GOAT dial..
Did I mention that center screen is humongous?
I think I had the knob figured, but not sure which mode to use for which surfaces. Sport for fwy sounds about right--it's supposed to make the Bronco corner more like my Mustang. :giggle:

Unfortunately, Base Camp doesn't have Mud/Ruts Mode, which exactly describes the ranch in winter, so will have to make do in Slippery.

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.

Ford must have been in charge of shipping it

Seeing so many pictures of people taking delivery of their broncos. So happy that we are all starting to see deliveries. I know many are still waiting but you got your 1/3 family here to entertain you until then. TBH I haven't driven it since moving into my garage lol. Have my ceramic and PPF scheduled so just waiting to do that first before taking it out more.

In other news, the guy who built Forfs tracking and shipping system recently left to work at a desk chair company
