For the adjustment procedure, I wouldn’t bother bringing it to the dealer unless it was a same day or waiting appointment, myself. Fords service manuals can be “rented” online for I believe 3 days through Helm Inc.

@RynoRanger for sure, not Bronco specific or anything, but with 100 plus degrees every day, the biggest chunk of work that comes in is for AC, to the point where dealers were booking out weeks in advance, because they still have all their normal stuff that pops up too. Like you said, no one...

If you look at old Wranglers that have always still commanded high price tags even before the recent artificial inflation, I don’t see any reason to worry. If you’re worried you won’t be able to drive it around and then sell it in a year or so and make a profit from what you originally paid…...

@jh3113 most dealers are slammed with AC related issues this time of year, we were pushing 2 and 3 weeks out when I was still at Camelback.

Not news though. Most manufacturers include torque reduction in the lower gears while trying to move a heavy vehicle from a dead stop.

Yes, welcome to the 6G forum. First day?

Sounds like they used you to get one on their lot, as using the supply and demand, market correction or any of the other dumb crap they try and call it is bologna. There’s always been a limited supply from day one along with high demand. It’s not new. They’re just greedy/corrupt like some other...

Maybe they gift wrapped some ADM for you that they forgot to give you on delivery? JK, that’s cool of them, whatever it ends up being.

Would rather see someone get away from the 60s era script and create something modern.

@WHOISGAZ I feel ya. Saw one in my town for the first time. Then when we were picking up my wife’s Rubicon from the dealer, they had a Wildtrak they let me test drive. Didn’t help, but solidified that the wait will be worth it.

I also own a new Rubicon but that comment about launching Wrangler occupants to the moon was a good LOLz. Also very true. Too bad they’re going to be even more outrageously overpriced than even a standard Bronco. Here’s hoping someday one will be attainable.

Choice is irrelevant, Ford is electing not to pay for the required repairs. End of story.

You do realize that Ford does not manufacture the turbos for any of their products, nor did they conspire for you to get a bad one. If that’s the worst that’s happened to you, you’re still doing pretty good.

But at least now you’ve learned the valuable lesson that 4wd doesn’t make you invincible. You’ll be fine next time out. Everyone’s gotten stuck somewhere.

They’re trying to create a “family” of the nameplate, and utilizing a version of a familiar name is the easiest way to attract new and old buyers of the brand alike. Called marketing 101, Fords interest is to make money, not make people on a forum happy. As most of us already know.

To be fair, Mach E is technically a new nameplate that was bastardized from the Mach 1.

Got as far as the sunglasses and had to pass.

They’re also selling Base models for 60k and First edition for $90k the last time I checked. We test drove a 24 mile Wildtrak just because we could and the dealer had it listed at $84k.

They’re afraid of a little competition, not educated enough to know that’s why their own rigs are getting better. Wife/we bought a new Rubicon because she didn’t want to play the waiting game anymore, but even the day she picked up we test drove a Wildtrak at the same dealer and she already...

You seem to have unrealistic/uninformed expectations. They’re ok for intermittent splashes etc from off roading not constant heavy rain because we didn’t check the weather forecast.
