Colorado Group Buy with Granger

[hemiblas]

In going to attempt to test drive a ranger and f150 this coming week with my wife to see what the motors are like here at altitude. I'll report back if anyone is interested at all. I know there have been multiple threads about that comparison already though.

Yes. This would be awesome....I own the ranger so I know how the 2.3 and 10 speed auto works. Overall I'm happy with the combo except when starting from a standstill. If you floor it between the lack of air and the turbo spool the car is helpless till its gets to about 15mph. After 15mph there is no problem with the power. I have econoboxes that are not even trying get a car length on me up until 15mph when the truck just takes off.
I'm curious if the manual would help with this. I think it does because I can rev my engine to 2500rpm and then let go of the break and seems to have good power and a good takeoff.

Coloradoguy.....Yes, I'd get the auto/2.7 combo for the 4 door. That is going to be heavier than the 2 door plus if you are going to tow the 2.7 will do a much better job. The 4 door should be more stable as well at highway speeds and that 10 speed will shift smoothly with plenty of power on tap.

I'm in the same boat. Manual and 2.3 or auto and 2.7. I can't really decide. I'm guessing the 2.7 is going to have a little lag on startup as well, but I'm thinking it wont be as bad as the Ranger, but if you can compare it to the Ranger I'd really like to know. After the initial turbo lag, the 2.7 should be a rocket ship with the 10 speed auto....Either one sounds like a really fun combo though.

My ’17 f150 supercrew has the 3.5EB W/ 10speed (I know not the 2.7) but it hauls a**. I have 35” MT tires, 6” lift and still get 18.1mpg and over 600 miles/tank. Getting the 2.7 auto in the 4dr badlands for sure.

If anyone is considering doing group shipping, let me know after you make or switch your reservation to Granger and I will add you to our private thread.

I just made the switch with my reservation. I'm undecided on the shipping versus flying out for delivery. But I'd like to be added so that I can keep my options open. Thank you.

@ColoradoGuy Please add me to the private group. I have a 7/28 reservation with Phil Long Ford Denver and just made a new reservation with Granger. Now I need to decide if I want to transfer my original reservation to Granger or switch to the new one for the additional savings.

Can you elaborate? if you have a reservation, keep it and switch it to granger, wouldn't you still get the additional savings they're offering? I'm confused as to why you made a new one with granger? Sorry if its a stupid question or it has already been answered. I'm asking because I have a reservation and was going to switch it to granger once I got back to the states.

Because Granger is running a $2000 off of invoice deal for reservations that were made in October. That deal is not valid on deals that are switched to them and done prior to October.

Reservation officially switched to Granger
Also threw in an October reservation at Granger


Will likely be picking up at the dealer vs. shipping if it's safe to fly.

 

[hemiblas]

I switched to october as well. I'm thinking shipping is safest at this point and there will be costs with flying out, taking an uber to the dealership, gas, putting 700 miles on your new bronco....so it would be a wash. right now we are looking at 425 and there seems to be a descent number of people with an october reservation.

It’s cool to have a Colorado presence here! I reserved at Groove Ford. Can I just call Ford and change my reservation? I reserved on 10/1, so I assume I’ll be able to get the October deal?

thanks for setting this up!!

Yes, good instructions here: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/colorado-group-buy-with-granger.5673/post-200719

Just tell them you want to switch to Granger zip code 50109.

@Granger Ford - adding to confirm if 10/1 reservations that are switched (and not started new) still get the newer deal.

 

[babraunagel]

I'm in -- still need to change to Granger before the end of October.

 

[wannabronco]

I have an Oct 2 reservation with Granger and I am in Nevada. A trip to Colorado would be alot easier. Could this deal apply to me?
