Hey everyone!

New member here from Raleigh, NC. I’m an Army veteran and excited to be joining the Bronco community.

I just placed my order for a 2026 Bronco Badlands 4-door with the Sasquatch Package, HOSS 3.0 suspension, manual transmission, and a few other bells and whistles. I’m currently driving an F-250 Tremor, but I’ve been wanting to get into something a little smaller and more off-road capable.

I’ve already seen so many inspiring builds on here, and I can’t wait to get my Bronco and start working on my own rig.

Looking forward to learning from everyone and being part of the community.

Welcome from God's Country.
Have you done a lot of research on what the Sas package and Fox package, gets you on a Badlands with a manual?

I’d say I did a fair amount of research.

Welcome. In the meantime while your Bronco is getting built, take the time to delve into the many sub-forums. There has been a lot of good information shared over the years.

Thats great, we've had a lot of new members that didn't know that a Badlands with a manual, has about 95% of the Sas package, unlike the other trims.

Welcome, I know you are going to love your new ride. So much better than a Humvee or FMTV. I'm retired Army but still drive both regularly, grin at the end of my work day as I climb into my Bronco.

Welcome to the forum!

If you ever decide to play around with lighting upgrades down the road, definitely check out what we’re working on over at Oracle Lighting, we’ve got a few options that pair really cleanly with the Bronco platform. Always happy to help with questions or setups!

Welcome to the forum fellow army veteran. Old 36C aka 31L cable dawg here. I just joined this site today and placed my order for Ruby Red Dinosaur on wheels today as well. Now all I here is the jeopardy theme music playing in the background while I wait :)

I agree that there are so many inspiring builds on this site and I'm so glad I found this cool community and place to hangout and learn while I wait. It feels funny buying accessories (Tube Doors) already and my vehicle doesn't even have a build date yet. lol I only ordered two options paint color and painted top so I'm hoping that speeds things up. My sales lady said their dealership is one of the high volume dealerships in the region and Ford usually gets their builds done fast as a result. I hope she is right.

I hope you enjoy the site and your new vehicle.

Welcome to the Forum! I went through the order process for my Badlands last year, delivered in July 25, it was great fun! I have been having a lot of fun making it my own, which is one of the best things about owning a Bronco.

Welcome to the group from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I received my 26 badlands about two weeks ago. I am very fond of the truck, a joy to drive I wanted the 2 door and the manual transmission. I started ordering part as soon as I got the notice it was ordered. I bought a few thing a month, what was good about that was every thing was paid for when the Bronco got here. enjoy the shopping and checking the build web site.
