More painted flares, I wonder if that'll be standard for 2024. I remember reading about Code Orange being an option package for '24, I assumed it was because of logistics and wanting to better schedule Raptors for painting since Code Orange is an exclusive color for them, but this must've been...
I think the hardtops being so badly fumbled is a big factor in the current colors. I remember when the Bronco Sport was first leaked, rendered in orange with a white top, the designers were clearly aiming for a very retro color palette with this. I think when they realized they weren't going...
Since it's looking like Race Red is out for '24 I expect Eruption Green will replace it as one of the options for the Heritage Edition, though that might make too much sense for Ford to follow through with. I'm taking this info with a pretty big grain of salt considering both Cayman Green and...
Yellowstone, Robin's Egg, Peak Blue and Terrain were leaked on a touch-up site like a year before they were confirmed by Ford. Obviously take everything with a grain of salt but it's not like they've been completely untrue. People wouldn't be following this if Ford wasn't completely...
If pre-orders didn’t exist, things would take longer than they already do to develop, they just wouldn’t announce them until they’re ready to sell, so it’d only seem like production was shorter. Pre-orders allow product manufacturers to better gauge demand on something, nobody wants to sink...
Sedona Orange is offered on Rangers outside North America already, so those colors might not reflect what's offered at MAP in '24. I think Shelter Green is the exclusive Raptor color for 2024 so everything else should be a standard Bronco color if it isn't a Heritage Limited exclusive.
A lot of these look like carryovers from 2023; Yellowstone and Robin's Egg are confirmed to be '23 colors only for the Heritage Limited, with Peak Blue and one more for '24. Race Red is gone from the '24 Ranger so I think it's out for the Bronco too, and I think Area 51 is being replaced with...
Not really, the 2024 Ranger color palette confirming most of the '24 Bronco's colors was a bit of a curveball that disproved most of my initial predictions. It's looking like Race Red, Eruption Green, and Code Orange are out, despite spyshots on the Ranger Raptor and inclusion on other '24...
They spotted a Ranger Raptor in Eruption Green a few months ago but the fact that it isn't in the build & price doesn't bode well. It's a popular and very good looking color so I'd be surprised if they scrapped it, but not actually surprised, their CMF team have been making a lot of pretty bad...
But consider that demand for the Ranger will go up being the first year of a new generation in addition to introducing the Raptor, that may mean they allocate more space and resources for the Ranger and therefore less for the Bronco since they share assembly lines, and production may remain...
This can't be! I was assured by many people that the Raptor flares were expressly engineered by Ford to be unpainted, that flat black plastic is the pinnacle of high fashion, that there was no physical way that MAP could accommodate something so complex!
Even though I know the history of the G-Wagon, that it was developed as a European utility vehicle that saw extensive use as a work truck, military vehicle, and off-roader, it was only ever sold in America under the pretense of being a luxury vehicle. It's almost never actually used for...
I've found a couple, but I've genuinely found no dealership stock Black Diamond, just used ones. Same thing with Big Bend Sasquatch, haven't seen a single one in my months of perusing.
Black Diamonds are incredibly uncommon as dealer stock and on the used market for whatever reason, would be open to one but I've only happened across a couple. Good to know about the VIN codes.
I'm browsing the used market for a Basesquatch or an Outer Banks since I'd really like 4A and lockers. I'm really not jazzed about the prospect of paying $10k more for the same product that debuted in 2021 just because Farley needs to compensate for his terrible investment into EVs in order to...
That's what I was thinking, no teenaged daughter has the urge to publicize their family, they almost always want nothing to do with them. Mothers on the other hand...
I initially thought people were overreacting to a removable chalk drawing but the more I think about it, the more I think it's...
