Not sure if anyone knew this but Ted Ryan (Ford's Archivist) created a Bronco playlist. All of the songs either feature the Bronco in the song or have it featured in the music video. Music selection is pretty country/rock heavy but I figured I'd share. Gives us all something to listen to...
I'm sure not all reservations will be fulfilled in year 1 (2021) and not all will follow through with their orders. But Ford will certainly fulfill all reservations eventually
I am a fairly recent college graduate (graduated 2 years ago) and am reaching the point in my life where I could use a new car. I have always been a big fan of the Mustang and love the current generation so I honestly thought I was probably going to get one of those. A few months leading up to...
If I had the opportunity to build my perfect Bronco, this is what it would be:
Factory Ordered Stuff
Badlands
2.3T
Manual
2-Door
12" screen
Heated seats + Steering Wheel
Side Mirror Lamps
B&O Sound System
360 Camera
Ford/Dealer Accessories:
Winch
Ford Pull-out Tray (currently only available on...
So as many people have noted on here, the point of beadlock wheels is to give you the ability to air down your tires to a much higher degree (<10 PSI), which is useful in very rough off-roading conditions to increase traction (intense rock crawling, sand driving with high lateral g's, etc...)...
Yeah, I plan on getting a Badlands and plan on Daily Driving my vehicle.
I fully intend to take the vehicle to Silver Lake Sand Dunes, Holly ORV Park, Drummond Island or the UP a few times per year. I'd also like to take 1 more serious multi-day off-roading trip per year.
I do realize...
Yeah, looks like the F-150 B&P is functioning, albeit not fully yet.
I'd imagine the Bronco B&P might have a few kinks the first day or so and then show all the correct pricing.
Edit: Also, the Pickup Truck emoji thing has been on there for the last month. Ford isn't playing tricks on you...
I agree with many of your points. I will probably end up getting the Badlands with the 33" A/T's for many of the reasons you listed above. But I did want to clarify one of your points..
"5) Beadlock rims require maintainance - Beadlocks need to have bolts tightened and adjusted regularly...
I think the white top option was taken as our member on here meant.
Every time people have been asking about a white top, we've never gotten a "No". We've gotten "more information will be released later". This is a positive sign!
No worries! I know you also asked about the reliability/dependability. I'll share a few thoughts.
The Tacoma is incredibly tough to beat reliability wise. With pretty basic maintenance, you can expect to get 200k+ miles pretty consistently. While I do think the Bronco will be reliable, I...
My dad actually owns a 2016 Toyota Tacoma with the 3.5L V6. I have driven it many times as well as the Ford Ranger (Bronco platform mate which has the same 2.3L).
I can say without a doubt the Ranger feels much more powerful, eager to accelerate, and smoother (10 speed transmission helps)...
As a 2 door reservation holder, I'm fairly surprised how much space is back there. These pictures only solidify my decision.
I am kinda curious why so many people are complaining though. Have you been in a 2-door Jeep or other small, off-road capable 2-door SUV's? You do realize that...
I am a big fan of electric vehicles and I would 100% be interested in an electric bronco.
I think that range anxiety is often overstated (especially for commuter cars) but I am going to be realistic in saying that heavy duty towing and off roading do pose challenges with Electric Vehicles. If...
If you are doing a lot of sand/beach driving, tire size doesn't matter too much. The 33" tires will work fine. I would also say that A/T's and M/T's will both be capable so don't stress too much over which tire option you choose.
As someone said before, getting an air-compressor to air up and...
