Latest Levine: Base & Big Bend Sasquatch pricing should be $7,385

[Steamroller72]

Base Sasquatch was the only "good deal" as far as I was concerned... straight kick in the dick.

Cancelled my reservation and bought a Ram 1500 Sport.

Maybe by 2024 they'll have their shit together.

Keep lower that reservation list Mike. Anyone who wasn't planning on dropping 50k+ would be better off moving on.

Hey, some of us were never planning on spending even close to $50k. For me it’s still looking like I can get my 2 door basequatch for under $40, so I’m content.

It's tough seeing those prices rise. I'm still in it though for base 2-door 2.3L manual at around 30k. I don't think the specs/price on B&P changed at all for that?

Nope, not if you aren't getting any options. Aside from the auto and the sasquatch the options only changed around a little bit.

If the price of the SAS package for the 2.3 MT really does go up to $7400 then I too am all on for a Base 2 dr MT for <30K

So, this isn’t actually as much of a price increase as people think. $4,995 was the old Sasquatch, $795 is the full time 4wd transfer case (which was previously tacked on with Sasquatch too), leaving $1,595, which is the price of upgrading to auto.

All in all, the only price increase for a basequatch is $1595 since they are no longer leaving the auto transmission as free.

Right. If they can update and change whatever they want on the fly, then they need to get the BaseManSquatch pricing in there with the manual trans for every model. Ford is half assing this thing. We know they're in there monkeying around so instead of 1/2 assing it, update the damn site. They better take $1595 off for the manual or they'll really be the monkey f'n the football in this one.

Funny they feel the need to address this day of, but the fact prices weren't calculating correctly to begin with they didn't address directly for what, almost 2 months now?? Ffs ford, wth. Plus there were a number of misleading answers about the auto being included if not outright lies... it's just frustrating

Well fellas I guess this means that my wife isn't getting her own bronco now. But I will. LOL

 

[Cptjockitch]

remember when everyone thought the bronco was a better deal than the Jeep? Before this price increase I thought it was overpriced. I could get a Chevy Colorado Zr2 with the bison package for about $5000 less than the Bronco. I can get a Toyota Rrunner trd pro with better color options for almost $10000 less than a fully loaded Bronco. The Bronco is now in the Ford raptor price category. I’ve seen used 2019 raptors with 10000 miles in the $60000 range. Have I mentioned I hate the Bronco color options? With rumors of a warlock or raptor trim in 2022 I just don’t feel like spending $60000 for a bronco if it’s going to be obsolete by next year. Remember the 2010 mustang and the 2011 mustang gt issue? How many 2010 mustang owners felt good about the 2011 mustang getting 100 more hp in the v6 and v8? There are more reasons than ever to not get this bronco. I haven’t even mentioned the Ford F-150 tremor package witch is rumored to cost only $5000 and can make an f150 with the tremor package less than $50000. Maybe the bronco is the best off-road option but it isn’t the only off-road option. Ford better be careful.

I have a hunch that some people in Ford keep making decisions, and then the new CEO decides to override those decisions, consistency be damned.

edit: For anyone who hasn’t had experience with corporate management on big programs, this isn’t all that unusual in many industries. Someone promises the customer x, y, & z for a price, their boss finds out about this down the road and doesn’t like it for whatever reason, and says it needs to change. It’s not great by any means, but it is the product of humans working together, last I checked no one is infallible, and changes happen.

Holy shit some if y’all need to grow up. Ever heard the term “don’t shoot the messenger”? Acting like Mike personally increased the cost of your Bronco. At least he is communicating and answering questions.

Sometimes I swear this community is it’s own worst enemy.

 

[92EddieBauer]

As a day 2 reservation holder I'll let it ride out until I get a call from my dealer. I'm not impressed with how much ford has dropped the ball and continue to run a hurry up offense & keep jumping off sides. I think I'll be waiting 2 years and getting a used one.

 

[Nickp]

Maybe he’s slightly vague because this community completely eats him alive and inspects every letter he says with a microscope? We can either have someone speak off the cuff and sometimes be a bit vague, or rely entirely on Ford’s statements.

with an increase like that, more n more customers would opt to get their Lifts and wheels/tires in the aftermarket .... getting stock would give you minimal benefit in price ... well done Ford .... SUPERB management
