  1. Why is Dealer Allocation even a thing?

    I cant recall another OEM (besides tesla) doing reservations before now, so this is new territory AFAIK. Perhaps they thought to let reservations trump allocations, and then Im sure many dealers threatened legal action if they didnt do something about dealers selling cars outside of their...
  2. Why is Dealer Allocation even a thing?

    dont know that much about the specifics, but allocations have been a thing for a long long time, gt500, raptors, corvettes, hellcats. Technically everything has allocations, but its irrelevent for most cars since dealers are rarely begging for more than they can get.
  3. Why is Dealer Allocation even a thing?

    dealers were WELL aware of how allocations work... unless they thought that reservations would circumvent them.
  4. Why is Dealer Allocation even a thing?

    enables it for sure. compare to the debate over walmart or amazon undercutting other competitors and the eventual risk that after they have eliminated the competition, amazon would be free to raise prices. its a balancing act to maintain competition but also protect it. vast majority of the...
  5. 🛠 11/29/21 Build Week Group

    my window sticker says 12/4, but nothing yet. just so excited.
  6. Console Safe Not an Option for Some.!

    How does it mount? could you cut the box off the back and just preserve the top plate with the locking door? perhaps the portal opening is till the issue for a handgun, but for other things, sunglasses, wallet, etc, could be a win.
  7. Why is Dealer Allocation even a thing?

    dealers have a lot of power, they have contracts with ford that say they invested in a facility to sell ford vehicles, and in turn ford will sell them vehicles. States will always side with the dealers because they pay the tax and hold the jobs, not a corporation 10 states away. So when 1...
  8. Grille Light (like the Raptor)

    the blinkers have an amber mode. do the rings have the same? I assumed they were DRLs only.
  9. Broncos "Rake", level vs lift

    I dont think 500lbs of gear is going to have your front tires lifting off the road or anything... its mostly centered on the rear axle, so it shouldnt cause the front end to float at all. a trailer on the other hand can actually use the rear axle as a fulcrum, so thats different.
  10. OEM cargo mat scratching inside of tailgate

    I dont have a bronco yet... but I do have this mat. Love the tray mats. and the bronco on it was a nice touch or I might have gone with weathertech. Glad to hear it will fit well.
  11. Double honk gone!!!

    but it is quite possible. the car will continue to operate, drive, go into gear etc without a key present, you'll get a honk and you'll get a warning on the dash, but it wont prevent you from driving. Until you shut it off, and cant turn it back on.
  12. Broncos "Rake", level vs lift

    would be interesting to see a car on a relatively flat surface, and stick a digital level on the ground vs say... the belt line or roof rail. Not that I care about it being 0.0, just curious what the angle is.
  13. Double honk gone!!!

    common issue that 2 people drive somewhere. 1 exits the car, maybe dropped off at a store, and the other drives to a 2nd location. but the 1st person had the key in their pocket... 2nd person cant restart their car... when it happens, you'll be glad you got the honk.
  14. Going 35's on 7MT Big Bend. Will I lose 6th gear?

    perhaps theres a reason 2.3 + manual + sasquatch wasnt offered. but they will in 22. do we know if they are using a different gear ratio with it? 10% larger tire circumference. might be a bit lethargic at speed in 6th gear, but Im sure it wont be unusable.
  15. Are people really buying the $100K+ listed Broncos?

    Hell, a hummer ev isnt far off
  16. Are people really buying the $100K+ listed Broncos?

    Ill do $10 lower, call me
  17. License plate option

    and cops are ok with that? these sorts of things arent just as illegal as having no plate at all? or do you really manage to spot every cop before he spots you? if you park in public, do you always flip it down?
  18. License plate option

    yes... but why make it fold up like that? when would you fold it away out of sight?
  19. License plate option

    whats the point of this? is this "legal"? do you quickly press this when you see a cop? just at car meets? my state doesnt have a front plate, Im trying to figure out when you hide it vs reveal it
  20. Road & Track Review: The Ford Bronco Made Me Understand the Wrangler

    eh, I think fseries has pushed things a few times... aluminum body, a legitimate engine that wasnt a V8. The OG lightning, the raptor. maybe not as dramatic as the EV lightning, but in the world of pickup trucks... these were pretty huge swings.
