Nothing after the 22nd. Rest assured when Sean knows, he'll let us know.

I'm looking forward to some pics of the Field Green. It looked like a nice color on the gas can.

I'm really torn between the two. That bronze looks really good in those pics, but I'm afraid it will look sorta wonky with the interior. I really do like the bronze a bit better I think in general - though, one could probably negotiate a better deal on one of the non-FEs I'm guessing.

Sorta wish they'd offer painted black hardtop as an option, but I'm not going to really complain about that. I guess the body color painted top is more in line with the 'upscale' look they are going for in a way.

The bronze was nice and certainly a bit more pizazz than the rest of the Bronco color choices. I'm not completely sure the Bronze would age well with me though.

Yah, the bronze is very nice. I wish it was just a bit more on the yellow side. There is something about the green that just seems a little bit classier. Not like a Bronco is trying to be some classy vehicle...I guess that's not the right word for it. The green looks more refined? It's between more refined and a color that stands out more I guess. I dunno.

It’s a hat tip to the classic country gentleman Rover green. Not exact of course, but that’s the vibe. Get your tweed on with your wellies.

The Bronco, particularly a Sasquatch...and double particularly a Sasquatch without roof or doors....has a presence that makes a statement all by itself. In my opinion, it doesn't really need bold, "look at me", or "in your face" colors. If you do off road your truck, the natural earth tones that dominate the Bronco color choices really make the Bronco appear to be at home when away from the concrete jungles. I think my A-51 really pulls the sky into pictures.

I hope that X-brace makes it into production. I would assume they’d redo the lighting so that it is like ‘25+ and I can put one in mine without it becoming even more of a black hole in the back.

The Cincinnati location is interesting. Very little parking in the area. Plus it’s next door to a Greaters Ice Cream store. Could be some sticky hands touching the Bronco (Broncos?).
Though there is a Ford’s Garage restaurant a half mile away.

I am going to try to get out to see them, but those pics of the copper earlier in the thread are pretty striking. I was more team green before I saw actual non-promo photos of that copper.

I talked to my dealer already and they were kinda "ehhhh" when I talked to them about a deal on a FE. I guess since the numbers are limited, the cards are in their favor. Sent a message off to Granger to get on their list too. However, in my experience, the high volume dealers are actually a worse place to get limited edition vehicles. They know they have a huge customer base and know there will be someone in that group who will pay even more over MSRP for a limited fomo thing.

I might just get a regular edition in the Green depending on the final pricing.

The best places to find the unique models, at least in my experience, are dealerships in mega cities. The Ford dealership I'm quite familiar with in San DIego will undoubtedly have one of these on display (and not for sale...) the day it releases.

Where I originally ordered my bronco from, they were a relatively large lot in Salt Lake, their displays were an F250 King Ranch, Explorer ST and a Mustang GT500. Funnily enough when I inquired about what they were selling it for they said it was already sold to another dealership.

I think that's true, but in situations where dealerships are given specific limited allocations, it changes things. If every dealership gets one allocation, I think the small local guys will sell it at a more reasonable price since demand may be lower vs in a bigger market, they know there will be more demand for their allocation, and they'll sell it for more.

I got a 392 wrangler 20th anniversary (I think each dealer got 2 allocations). The high volume dealer (where I usually get my new jeeps) in VA was selling their allocation for $20k over msrp (iirc). I got mine from a local dealer for msrp.

N of 1, but an observation.
