Not quite. I'm not familiar with the Jeep version, but sounds like this one is completely different. The hinge is a bolt on each side with a nylock nut and some nylon washers. Access to the back side is almost nonexistent. This is exactly where I was suggesting a quick release pin instead...
You'll have to take that up with your dealer rep. It doesn't seem there's any supply issues with accessories (yet), so I wouldn't want mine kicking around the dealership for months while I'll waiting on delivery.
I assume you are right. But there's really no need for that, there's hardly any engine noise to speak of. I'm coming from a 7.3L Excursion rolling on 33" all-terrains, so take my opinion on this with a grain of salt. This Bronco is super quiet to me. The top is probably the noisiest part...
You can lockout the inside door locks from the infotainment system. I assume this means that if one of the keys is not inside the car, you cannot unlock it by pressing the unlock button on the inside of any door. I have not tried that yet. One nice feature is that the tailgate handle has the...
Reader request time.
@Norsk82 asked about the accessories, which can be found here and the PDF attached below. Of the ones I inquired with my dealer about, these are the prices I was quoted:
CARGO AREA ENCLOSURE, DELUXE RAISED LID $639
CARGO NET $19
TABLE FOR SWING GATE $209
tire cover with...
Ahh... see, they didn't provide me with any of the instructions. I should have asked for them, especially with the enclosure, but then I might have realized that. To his credit, the salesman that had to break the news was very humble and forthwright, while also not saying exactly what happened...
Roughly, the usable area is 28"deep x 41"wide x 22.5" high. It's hard to give exact dimensions without a 3D model. lol
The backseat portion is slightly sloped, so you get a bit more space at the bottom, an slightly tighter at the top. The sides are vertical, but there are a few small spots you...
No, it's quite stable, and it has various gaskets and seals to keep it from rubbing too.
I'd be interested to see if the fixed lid model is more moddable to make the lid removable as I suggest. The drawback may be that it becomes noisy.
Hardy has been great. My work does business with their Chevy side and I've never had issues with them. Ford tried to direct me to Wade, but... well, no... that's all I'll say. I had a contractor working on my house the day Luci showed up, so I couldn't be gone long. I had already setup a lot...
They told me I was the first delivery at Hardy Ford. It is weird to see almost no stock. They were lamenting that they had mostly Expeditions, and Ford keeps sending them Expeditions.
I have not noticed any rattles at all, it's solid. The enclosure is not very thick, nor do I think it is...
I've gotten a ton of complements on the color, in particular - a TON. In my mind, this has always been 'the Raptor color', and it looks great on the Mustang too. Frankly, VB and Cactus Grey don't look great on the Ranger for some reason. I think the body lines and the black trim really go...

So first, meet Luci. "Hi Luci." Luci is my Sasquatch, purchased from Hardy Ford in Dallas, GA. Here's the preview; She showed up on 7/19, but the dealer didn't have time to finish prepping her and installing my accessories. Apparently, they went through her with a fine-tooth comb. So these...
