HERITAGE EDITION Bronco Club

[Malcolm Robertson]

I picked up my '23 today. It actually came a month ago, but I had plumbing disaster on Christmas that affected my finances. Corwin Ford in Springfield, Mo was very understanding and held it for me all this time. Someone else had ordered a Cactus Gray Heritage and then abandoned it, so it sat on the pad for a few weeks unsold while customers were offering $10-15k over sticker for the one I'd ordered that was sitting by the wall next to the service department.

Body shop just sent me a pic. Pick it up tomorrow, can't wait!!! It was completed exactly one month from the little incident, which I feel isn't a bad timeline for a newer model of Bronco.

Unfortunately, the budget didn't allow for the OEM modular bumper as I had hoped. It did allow for a Turn Offroad baja bumper. I'll be adding some lights to it and what not. Still need to figure out the winch situation, but may go the hidden winch route now.

Looks like they did a good job of color matching based on the pic - hope that’s the case in person also!

Congratulations on getting your Heritage back. I wish it was summer so I can have mine back. Just sitting in it doesn't scratch the itch!

Hopefully your date doesn't move fifteen times like some of ours did!

Yea, I was curious how it would turn out and it looks good in the pic but won't know for sure until I see it tomorrow. Not that Ford's paint job was that impressive to begin with. I've got an Ozarks trip in March to plan for, so glad I can get the Bronco back fairly quickly. My pile of parts needing to be installed keeps growing.

Congratulations All on your new scheduling and production!!! Be sure to review and use the Bronco OCD when taking delivery!!! I gave it to my dealer and they took extra prep time to go through it for me. Of special note is ensure battery terminals, fuse box bolts and fuses are tight and seated properly…loose connections have been reported as problem points frequently over the past few years…

And just so ya’ll don’t get too set on your build week, many of us were scheduled this same week last year year but most of us didn’t start actually getting them until mid to late summer. I think I got mine scheduled on 1/26 and actually received the vehicle 9/15. My first build week was supposed to be April 3rd. They do seem to be pumping out more now but we never did find out the real reason for the delay.

I don’t think the parts availability situation of the mod tops this year is analogous to what happened last year for the HE builds that caused all the delays.
So far this year, no HE builds have been bumped back, and they are all are getting built with similar timelines as those of other trims.

Good to know you can get those squared fenders in a fairly reasonable time frame. Maybe constraints are easing a bit.
