  1. Trans Temps High, Trans Service, Fluid Dark 30k

    I own an auto repair shop, and we've replaced a few Ford 10 spd autos, like some have experienced on here they are not cheap. My fluid had a slight clutch material/burnt smell to it. I think the smart thing, for us who do go off road, or tow, and experience those higher temps, is to shorten our...
  2. Trans Temps High, Trans Service, Fluid Dark 30k

    We did a trip to the San Juan Mtns in CO recently. Ran Black Bear Pass, Imogene Pass, Engineer Pass, Yankee Boy Basin, etc. I was very concerned that the trans temps were so high on all of the steep inclines and descents, temps staying in the 220's and much of the time 225-228. In my past...
  3. Are Bronco Flat Tow Issues Resolved?

    Yes, the lights on the GOAT indicator dial. I'm more concerned that it indicates the t-case has shifted into neutral (the light goes out) than I am what the dash says. I'll also try to remember to push the brake pedal down really hard. Thanks.
  4. Are Bronco Flat Tow Issues Resolved?

    I haven't been on these forums for a few years, but decided to check in. I have a '22 Badlands 2.3L and we flat tow extensively. I also daily drive it and off road regularly. Just over 30k on the Bronco, and so far no issues. I've experienced issues getting it out of flat two mode a number of...
  5. Flat Towing a 2024 Wildtrak

    I have 30k miles on the Bronco, '22 Badlands, with extensive flat towing with no issues. I use the D ring tabs on the bumper. I also have an Air Force One brake system.

  7. Article: Bronco reservations could be delayed for years.

    So, you clearly pick out only the info you want, and ignore the rest. It has been said over and over and over again that Ford clarified the statement you quoted BERFORE any orders were placed. YOU, not me, are ignoring what is clearly out there.
  8. Article: Bronco reservations could be delayed for years.

    Sorry, this is not logical at all. Everyone has been on some allocation from the beginning. My dealer is on the top 150 list. They got 60 2021 Broncos allocated and had over 100 orders, at MSRP. My order is going to be 2022. My order will be included in their 2022 allocation. So, how does your...
  9. Article: Bronco reservations could be delayed for years.

    Yes, well before any orders were taken. Do all of you who are bitching so loudly and irrationally realize that for all of us Bronco order holders that did not order from Granger that we are better off? No one is getting screwed here, if you didn't buy from Granger at way back of invoice. The...
  10. Day 6: MY22 Allocation Formula – What action can we take?

    Or the dealership could have told you this. Hey, go for it. I'm all for getting my Bronco sooner rather then later.
  11. Article: Bronco reservations could be delayed for years.

    BTW, is everyone who is so adamant that they are getting screwed by Ford getting their Bronco from this dealer? Who else is getting screwed so badly?
  12. Article: Bronco reservations could be delayed for years.

    No, I won't admit it at all, because it wasn't. You are ignoring the time line, to justify your self serving conclusions. Sure, focus on reservations. But, the real deal is orders. A dealership was chosen when it was time to convert the reservation to an order. And the revised (yes, revised for...
  13. why are we blaming Ford and not the dealers?

    And your info is based on what? The poster said only dealers who sold below invoice were fair and honest. I challenged that statement. There was no argument. Many people here have said they paid MSRP. Only a few have said they paid ADM. Regarding what this thread is about, a few of us are...
  14. Article: Bronco reservations could be delayed for years.

    In another thread it was quoted that the comment came in Sept 2020. That was before ordering was opened. So, any dealership knew that there was going to be an allocation formula that partly took into account previous sales history. You should be able to see the significance of that. The...
  15. why are we blaming Ford and not the dealers?

    So, any business that sells their product at a fair price is greedy? Seriously? I think we can easily make a point that the dealership who chose a marketing strategy to sell over 1000 Broncos when other dealerships were going to sell 100's is the one who is greedy. You're saying that selling at...
