You win the Internet prize of the day!

Oh no, I came in second, the Ford Build and Price team won easily.

Maybe I just missed this before, but did they remove the light grey center console top in the Badlands and replace it with the black (for both MGV and leather)?

For some reason I had thought it previously showed as light grey to match the dash top...

I completely disagree. The base will be a unicorn as they can't make as much money off it. Everyone will have outerbanks and badlands models optioned differently.

I will go ahead and forget my 35 inch Sasquatch dreams.

In fact, I will embrace the tiny steelies, and then mod the suspension and use 4 of the 6 switches to go on/off "low rider mode" with each wheel, at each light.

Then I will record my hip hop album and use my Bronco Base as a tax write-off, because it will be featured in all of the videos, like "Run the Jewels" features a Grand National. That is my plan. Please download the album when it comes out.

Not sure what updates were actually changed but my build is still the same with no price difference so I’m not complaining

 

[dgorsett]

Figured the free auto with Squatch was a glitch...this is better than 9K...still makes Base Base look good

This is one way to debug your code, follow this thread and update all the incorrect prices as BG6 members point it out. I think we call this community sourcing in the bus. This only works if your boss is not looking...

I think I just went from my fully loaded BL to a 2-door base. 1/2 the price. Just can't spend $60k on a 2nd vehicle I don't need that I have never seen or driven. I either need it to have all the options or none. There is no in-between for me. The only two acceptable interiors are the base and the BL. All others are garbage. Plus leather and MGV will be HOT in the summer without ventilated seats.

If the Browns can be a 10-4 team during the COVID season with a brand new head coach, Ford could’ve handled this better. I’m thinking of just buying an Army Green TRD Tacoma...

well, might want the 2.7L. but auto transmissions tend to be better for offroading including one pedal driving, offroad torque steering, plus torque converter for modulating torque rather than slipping the clutch.

It also tends to get better fuel economy by virtue of more gears staying closer to the powerband.

Plus the niceties, leisurely traffic driving, less fights with SOs who may not be interested in learning manual, smoother ride for passengers.

Nothing against manual, but there are reasons that everyone started paying extra for auto.

Most I think just never learned to drive standard trans......lol

Just did B&P again to check. No change to my pricing on the obx. Although they now have a dual top option.

Manual is better. It is more fun to drive that way. Yes the auto is easier... In the same way as pressing "play" on your phone to hear a song is easier than playing a guitar. Is your Bronco supposed to be like a top notch sound system or is it supposed to be like a guitar? If it is 100% a "sound system", then why not just get a Lincoln?

my exact build on my BD went up 2k.. this is unreal.. the prices seem the same for the 2.7L but the base price for the 4 door went up & it seems like the price for the Mid Package went up also.. I might b out

 

[Hank 615]

why get an auto anyway, the manual is better. and now cheaper.

Because a 2 door with a twin turbo V6 is gonna fly
