Not to give them any excuses, but consider this as far as price: I work in manufacturing and the price of parts has gone up significantly in the last 6-12 months, and since 2021 the price of some things has almost doubled in our industry. If you use an inflation calculator, you can see $30,000...
A lot I agree with here. Dealer told me recently the most common note now was 84 months! The limiting of options is getting infuriating and I am worried about them losing customers like you where they just want a no-frills version they can afford and then build up.
Honestly I wonder if it would be better at this point to just sell a "Custom" trim where you can configure a-la carte factory order like the old days. They just keep cutting options, colors, and configurations that the true bronco fans appreciate but the bean counters probably nix on sales...
Looks like you can order some different combination top colors with body colors, kind of like 5G bronco, like red on white, etc. Was that only black or body color in 2025 or is this new?
Well, Ford made this pretty easy for me with the lack of any compelling upgrades or changes for 2026, my wallet thanks them!
I am hoping the upgraded steering rack becomes available for us 2021-2023 folks as a ford performance part 🤞
I may have missed it, but I didn't see anyone mention it in above thread.
According to the Build and Price, if you want the HOSS3.0 Fox Shocks you can only unlock that by selecting the sasquatch package on the Badlands, so Badlands Sasquatch is the only trim you can get HOSS 3.0 Fox Shocks with...
I'd miss my manual transmission too much, but I would already have one in that code orange they had a few years ago if that wasn't a must have for me. Maybe one day they will make it an option on the Braptor, I would imagine that would make it even more awesome. It's also pretty wide for a lot...
Thanks for the insight. Yes they demonstrated the no-slack and situations where appropriate. They were very clear to distinguish between the type that has internal flex designed for this type of recovery and a normal tow strap. The ford accessories website for the kit just calls this a...
I did the same there in 2021, they have food and water but it wouldn't hurt to bring a snack. At that time we got free water bottles, not sure they are doing the same anymore. Bring credit card if you want merch and the instructors were very grateful for a cash tip, I felt it was well earned...
I wanted to post a review of the BYOB off-roadeo course for Advanced Recovery. If anyone has specific questions, feel free to ask
The course is a half day and the BYOB stands for bring your own bronco. I chose this specifically over the level 2 offroad because I figured it is better to learn...
The Off Roadeo owners program that we did at Gunstock (NH) several years ago now was tremendous fun and super informative for us and my group, I agree with your overall assessment
I did the BYOB Bronco "Advanced Recovery" session a few weeks ago on the same course which covers what you are...
Yeah so that's essentially like the current gen F150 powerboost, of which I have 2 in my family and have been great so far. I like the generator features which might be nice for overlanding folks but the fuel savings is probably only like 5 mpg if Im being honest. Truck is heavy AF though, so...
I seem to recall there was debate back when the bronco came back that they couldn't fit the 5.0 v8 in the vehicle instead of all the two ecoboosts, but does this survey essentially sink that entire argument? If they can fit the coyote in there with a hybrid, what are we even doing with all...
Did Ford request that they remove the image?
I agree. My Wife has a PHEV it is the best of all worlds (except you can't row your own gears), the fact that hybrids nowadays aren't all PHEV is a mystery to me (probably additional cost) but that would be better than the standard hybrid if they...
4 passenger seating replaces the rear bench seat with an extended center console.
Are you saying they are planning on not offering with 5 seats in the 4-door configuration? or this was an option?
I'm also thinking this means they will only offer the manual transmission in the same config as...
