Anyone with the roof rack know how much it affects your mpg? Just curious 🤨 I like the look but saw it knees mental it said something about changing fuel consumption and driving characteristics.

For what it’s with, every morning when I see useless tweets from @mrlevine I respond back with a comment asking about my Bronco. Also including @TheSaidDeep @jimfarley98 and now @MikeMartinez_AN (although he’s probably bought and paid for by Ford).

Tag all tweets with the hashtags #DirtMountainBronco and #BuiltWild and #Ford in an effort to tie their social media efforts to the debacle with our Broncos.

Will it work? Highly unlikely, but it will make me feel better.
I have seen yours and have been adding my own as well. I think we all need a coordinated campaign to tank any of their PR efforts by every single one of us embarrassing them on every tweet they post in an effort to shine a light on what they are doing and make them acknowledge us.

Ive been adding tweets as well. Sadly, on a few there were other folks complaining about other Ford activities and delays.

I ordered roof rack with my wildtrak. I remember for the 2021 broncos it was supposedly not allowed due to some production mistake etc. I go kayaking a lot so that's why using it for. I haven't seen a thread in which someone posted a kayak with their 2022 bronco yet which gets me a bit worried lol. I guess I'll find out when I get my bronco this month .... "Supposedly" wouldn't bet on it though . I haven't heard anything about the MPG I guess the best to counter act this would be to put premium fuel on it when you plan on putting a load on the roof. If I'm correct Ford sells a v shape Thule kayak product to have 2 kayaks on top of the bronco. I do wonder though what about those people who got 2021 broncos ... Like can they even mount anything on their bronco at all since supposedly due to the weight it wasn't allowed lol either way I'm happy to get a 2022 bronco over a 2021 bronco for sure

who thinks it might be a good idea if we started mass tweeting replies like: "Why has ford abandoned thousands of its bronco customers with no communication as their vehicles rot in an overflow lot?" to every single post Fomoco and Levine make? would all the bad publicity to every single post they make incentivize them to communicate with us and work to solve this problem? I have been doing it myself to no avail but what if everyone on here did it so that they were getting dozens or hundreds of negative replies to their posts and we all had a similar message?
When we do this we need to tag all our Twitter accounts so we can get retweets.

Yes I had my daughter telling me she wanted me to strap her paddle board to top of my brand new truck and bring it from her aunts. I am like ‘Nope sorry.’ Maybe I won’t use everything this truck is designed to do but it is mine and I like the look of it even if I don’t strap things to top. I do mainly city driving and will always use premium I think. I think any drag from the actual roof rack should not affect me much at city driving speeds. I pray u get urs soon. It is so surreal seeing it in person. The computer generated image of my build and then actually having it in front of me is so strange and awesome. Everyone hang in there as best you can. Very excited for you all.

Today is the day my Bronco was supposed to be delivered…or shipped…or built… or whatever ETA Ford provided meant, because the definition changes depending on who you speak with. Was in Detroit for a wedding recently. Really regretting not commandeering my Bronco if it indeed exists.

Same here. Sadly, I’m just expecting @Ford Motor Company to push back my date to who knows when. #freeourBroncos

my dealer told me i can’t be extra picky about my bronco! i told him i’ll be looking for paint chips since it’s been outside for months & he said “well we don’t have a paint shop here. i can’t just be fixing little things like that when it’s not our problem & if you don’t want a bronco due to paint chips that’s on you” 😡 he’s definitely sick of me… but i’m also sick of him. give me my bronco & i’ll leave you alone!!!

Next time you talk to him ask him what’s the most expensive thing you recently purchase. If their was a defect in it and the company said not my problem how happy Would u be. I could be wrong but u could take it to another ford that is better equipped

Also reach out to the general manager and ask for a different sales member bc u are not happy with his services. He will now need to split his commission

If I ever had an encounter such as this, I would pause the conversation, get up, step into the open area of the dealership, and ask for the manager politely. Upon his/her arrival, one statement would be made, please, repeat what you just said.

After that, I would be working with the manager directly or any other individual, and the all-mighty survey will reflect. No spiffs, holdbacks, or performance bonuses there!!!! I hate the arrogance. I am a firm believer that the customer is NOT always right. No way, no how!! However, they are ALWAYS the customer. The actions taken today may be small but, the customer has the ability to have a much wider impact than the narrow-minded acts of an imbecile salesperson.
