Thanks for this. But I do have to say, what a weird way to organize an event calendar alphabetically. Most people would look at an event calendar in sequential order by the date.
My thoughts exactly. But a friend pointed out if one were looking for their city, this way is easier.

charlotte is 2 hours away from me, I wonder if it'd be worth it to check it out in person.
If you're in the market for a higher end Bronco, particularly a 4-dr Stroppe or 60th, ESPECIALLY if you really dig the two Filson signature color options....it would probably be worthwhile making the drive to check it out first. I found the interior pretty nice, and a 3.0L non-Raptor, albeit re-tuned, is unique.

They had t-shirts for sale and were giving away some Filson Bronco stickers and Bronco patches if that tips the scales. Plus there are some Ford marketing people on hand you can talk to. They will at least humor your thoughts and opinions. I'd ask everyone mention how odd it is to campaign all race Broncos as 2-door Raptors, then NOT market a 2-door Raptor.

Had to order it by date as that alphabetical listing was causing my eyes to twitch. 🙃

Got a sneak peek at the Filson Bronco tonight in Seattle. The copper color looks great in person as does the new interior. I think it will be a hit.

Had a nice chat with a guy from Ford who was super receptive to my (general Bronco) feedback.

That copper color looks much better than it did during the launch video presentation. Maybe because their video camera was in the shade while the Bronco was outside the tent in the bright sun made it looked washed out. The grille looks much better too.

Already first on the list at my dealership. Priced out compared to a loaded OuterBanks with a level kit and a tire upgrade, it’s like 2-3k more. Asked for and hoping for green

It should be available to order just like any trim. There are too many exterior colors to just rely on Ford building one to their spec and hoping it matches what customers want. Now, I expect them to be a limited allocation so being first on your dealer's list is a good thing. But I wouldn't expect your dealer to reach out to you. It is up to you to be your own advocate and know when the order banks open and have your order ready.

The Ford guy said folding steps are NOT as beefy as a true rock rail. But the linkage looked fairly stout. I'm not sure, but I think the step itself was an aluminum extrusion. And with out full skids, probably not a great rock crawler, but I'm sure it will dig and claw it's way better than either of our WTs.

Edit: Ford guy said the rails are NOT as beefy as a rock rail. My bad....forgot a very key word in there with the "NOT"!

Do we know if the steps are electronic or magnetic?

I would have assumed its some form of electronic gizmo, but I didn't actually ask.

All of the east coast mid atlantic dates are on Wednesdays. I might hop over to Chicago for it since it's on a Saturday there.

I have a few questions I'd like to ask them in person and would like to see the interior up close.

I do like stickers...

Are you talking about the Braptors at the KOH event? The one where one of them caught their transmission on fire? Ford should of made them use non-modified shells, I don't think it would of hurt their chances.

Bilstein just sent me an envelope with about 12 stickers ranging from 14" to 3" .....I may have tossed it already but if your I can drop them in the post to you.
