  1. I think we all need to calm down. ?

    Toystwo, thanks for your reply. Tempted to respond, but thinking people aren't on the forum to follow two suits debating fundamentals of corporate communications. Moving on to the item of interest. . . . Ford 2nd quarter earnings call transcript is out and we can see what was actually said...
  2. I think we all need to calm down. ?

    Toystwo, Perhaps a breath before typing is in order? Your response comes across as if you have unimpeachable expertise of which you speak, and the person you're responding to doesn't. And perhaps some light reading -...
  3. I think we all need to calm down. ?

    Can't help noting that 150,000 is two thirds of 230,000. You'd expect a CFO to be conservative on an earnings call with investors. 230,000 reservations may be the actual number with an adjustment to be conservative. Otherwise at the earnings call early next year "how come you didn't get the...
  4. Lightweight Overlanding Camper/trailers ideal for BRONCO

    I'm really interested in pulling an overland trailer so thanks for this thread. I've also been looking at the Basecamp, in "X" configuration for improved off-road characteristics. At Bronco's current 3,500 lb. towing capacity the 16-footer makes the most sense. Base trailer weight of 2,650...
  5. [Official] 150K Bronco Reservations Received Already

    The 2022 Tacoma and 4Runner, because both are in development. And we can bet they are closely tracking Bronco development, launch and production. Editing to add Tundra and Land Cruiser, also in development, and on common truck platform with the other two.
  6. What song / music will you be playing in first drive of your Bronco?

    I gotta agree. In my case I love music - all kinds - in fact would have been a professional musician in another life. But top off, the sounds of the outdoors, the motor as I row through the gears, is all I want or need. When I drive around my little convertible (top down 99% of the time) the...
  7. Outer Banks Bronco Thread

    Thank you GordoJones for posting the exterior color chart! Putting into words what we see in the chart, it shows that: Area 51, Cactus Gray, and Race Red are offered Big Bend and up (not available on Base trim) Cyber Orange offered Black Diamond and up (not available on Base or Big Bend trim)...
  8. Outer Banks Bronco Thread

    Oxford White is non-metallic. I'm believing Cactus Grey is non-metallic. For me Cactus Gray with white roof is my fave. Will go white grill and white fender flares if offered. Would go white steelies if offered. Draw the line on white door handles though.
  9. Hard top and flare color choices

    For anyone having this trouble, I brought back the faded-to-graywhite trim on my father-in-law's 2003 CJ (flares, bumper ends, upper valance, etc.) with Griot's Garage Rubber Prep, followed by Blackshine Trim Restorer. Nearly as good as new, except where there was some fatiguing on the right...
  10. Outer Banks Bronco Thread

    I truly appreciate this forum, and this thread. Provides an opportunity to compare and contrast my needs and wants with y'all. Thank you! For me I'm trying to find the ideal balance between daily driver comfort with capability on unpaved park and fire roads. Will not be rock-hopping or...
  11. Outer Banks Bronco Thread

    Ok, I've been thinking through my ventilated leather problem. I went back to OBX features on the Ford website, and see that cloth seats come as standard; leather is optional. Pretty sure we can live with cloth! My daily driver is a VW Golf with black cloth seats. It cooks in our factory...
  12. Outer Banks Bronco Thread

    There is some wisdom there :) . My recommendation is 2021 Highlander Hybrid with Platinum trim. After we refill the coffers a bit I can clear a couple cars on my side of the garage and get the Bronco.
  13. Outer Banks Bronco Thread

    If ventilation on leather seats isn't available, my order is at risk. Ventilation option has become a "must-have" for my wife. She is next up for car purchase and we're shopping for dual role daily driver for her, and adventure vehicle for us. May have to wait to see what 2022 4Runner and...
  14. Outer Banks vs Sahara engine

    Don't think there's any need to worry about the 2.7L ecoboost. This motor has been powering F150's for several years, and won Wards prestigious 10 best engines award in 2018. By the numbers, stacks up favorably against old-school naturally aspirated V-6 and V-8 for horsepower and torque, and...
  15. Build & Price Configurator for 2021 Bronco Goes Live in August

    I imagine the Bronco marketing team is chomping at the bit to get build and price online. Expect there are important internal hurdles before that happens. Lock in production configurations and suppliers, finalize pricing, etc. I'm excited about this vehicle (just what I was hoping it would...
  16. Comparison: Cactus Gray vs. Toyota Cement Gray

    Want to check out a color database? Try Porsche Club's "Rennbow" (https://www.rennbow.org/colorwiki). Lots of the cool non-metallic colors back in the 50's and 60's - more metallics as time goes on. Two of my personal faves are Oslo Blue and Smyrna Green. Enjoy!
  17. What are you going to order ?

    4-door Outer Banks, Cactus Gray with white hard top and grill, tan or brown leather, lux package. Will be my wife's daily driver, and our go-to for adventure trips. The mission is all-weather security and comfort on unpaved roads. Perfectly happy with eco 2.7L/automatic and 18-inch alloys...
  18. How will your Broncos get used?

    We have a reservation in on 4-door Outer Banks; plan to option with 2.7L, 4x4 auto on-demand, lux, hard top. It will be daily driver for my wife, and adventure vehicle. Big Bend, Mesa Verde, Rocky Mountain, Black Hills, Yellowstone, Yosemite. . . Ready to go!!

    Fort Worth, TX. Not a native, but got here as quick as I could. ?
  20. Bronco Reservations Tracking List & Stats [Enter Yours!]

    Hi jaruss01, my confirmation e-mail shows Outer Banks in both the graphic and the series description. Also on the owner website. I placed the reservation on 7/16. Maybe an issue that has cropped up since then?
