Stop worrying about allocations.
Your dealership will get enough allocations to fulfill all reservations. It is just a matter of when.
This is my best guess as to what we can expect to happen with allocations and reservations:
Come Jan 19, Ford is allocating the first batch of reservations...
As cool as that slide out tailgate is, I believe aftermarket is going to bring better configurations that will level the trunk space and utilize it for storage. To me, that tailgate is a waste of valuable space. I could have a lift-up storage area under there where i keep recovery straps...
Family of 4 with tweens: 200lb dad 150lb mom, two kids under 100lbs plus a dog.
550lbs of people and pets
150lbs of kayaks or bikes or a canoe
200lbs of clothes and gear (50lbs each includes tents)
200lbs of food (includes 10 gallons of water)
1100lbs
I did 50lbs of gear because when I travel...
Dealers know nothing. How many times do I have to say this?
You must do your own research. The day the orders open up will be advertised across the web, as it will be a worthy news story.
That's when you start bugging your dealership for an appointment.
I am afraid if the wrong 2021 F150 shows up in my dealership lot, i too will abandon this disastrously bad rollout.
Stay Strong my Bronco obsessed brethren.
i still don't understand what the problem is with payload capacity on the Bronco. 200lbs overweight is not something i would worry about, and I doubt you will notice it in the handling.
I am pretty sure the Bronco can handle more weight than the Government Classification that it falls into...
Collectable, to me, means an increase in value. To that, I say no. Absolutely not. Not even a mint First Edition with 1000 miles.
Bronco will not drop as fast as cars, just look at the FJ Cruiser and Wrangler, but as far as gaining value? Maybe, if ford only makes them for three years and then...
I have owned 20 cars in my time, 3 of them have been Ford Broncos. My 2021 will not be my last car or Bronco, and while you all are holding off for a 2022, I know from experience that 2023, 2024 and later will bring great things.
By the time you get your 2022 there will be rumors about 2023s...
Please for the love of god, if you cancel tell us your reservation date.
That way we all know how far we are moving up on the list.
I do feel you though. I hear rumors of 5.2l raptors and think, hmm....
I don't see a problem here. I don't see any of us getting pulled into a weigh station, unless we are pulling something entirely too big.
The weight is a problem for the factory. If GVRW is 6000 in a 4-seat car, then the total weight cannot be more than 6000 with four average passengers.
If you...
I spent a nice October evening with my 84 Bronco, two S-10s, and a waist-deep pond. At one point, all three trucks were dead. At the end of the night, we had two going and towed one S-10 to the local gas station.
Here is the list from that day:
My Bronco: Would not start after getting shut...
$500 is an equitable trade that solidifies a contract or intent to purchase.
I don't see the problem here.
I am sitting here holding my $500 telling Ford to shut up and take my money. I just want my Bronco.
I am that odd buyer that had taken to off-road in my 20s, but rarely leave the pavement now. I've been there done that, usually in the middle of the night somewhere I am not supposed to be, without a winch or a chain to save the day, running over trees by accident...
i fully plan on doing the...
