I placed an order for a Raptor today and got the email from Ford saying my order is confirmed. I thought the order banks were closed for Bronco until end of March. Are Raptors different?
I took my Bronco to Metro Ford for oil change and tire rotation. The service department nearly had a fit when I asked them to rotate all 5 tires instead of 4. They told me "no one rotates 5 tires". They told me there is no tire pressure monitoring system sensor in the spare (THERE IS!). They...
My friend is a car dealer in Tampa and saw a First Edition at auction for $65,000. There were no bids and it did not sell.
My view since before Broncos were produced was that higher trims would not hold their value. I bought a Base Sasquatch 2.7L hardtop. IMO, Sasquatch and the big engine...
Only 18% of drivers can drive a stick. That eliminates 82% of the market if you're selling a manual. Makes sense resellers won't offer much for them.
Four doors also are in much higher demand than two doors. If you've got a manual two door maybe selling direct in autotrader or something...
Yes, you can change to OB and get the $2500, but don't. BB SAS is more desirable, better re-sale & more fun while you own. Ford should get everyone built for MY23, so don't be tricked into buying something you don't want. Ford's scare strategy is working as you yourself are considering buying...
OP height of 76" is substantially less than Ford's stated 77.8".
I think Ford is correct. My BaseSquatch is 75 3/8". No way the Raptor is only 5/8" taller.
Our SAS barely fits in our indoor condo lot. The Raptor would not.
YES, you can change your color AFTER you get your VIN. I got my VIN Jan 26, called my dealer the next day and changed color. The girl at the dealer said I could not change color and I said 'will you please try anyway'. 2 minutes later it was done. It is well documented on this forum that...
1) You'll get 25% longer life using 5 tires than 4
2) If you have 4 worn tires & 1 new spare, when you need that spare, your differentials will not work properly since the spare will rotate more slowly. This is bad for your vehicle.
3) Spares in the sun will degrade in 6 years or so and need...
BULLSHIT!
I had this same issue at my dealer which I've posted about. FIRST - THERE IS A TPMS SENSOR IN YOUR SPARE! My dealer also told me there was no sensor, but after I showed them the following video, they realized they were wrong!
This Ford video states at 1:12 into the video "The...

Maybe Everglades not selling well and Ford needs to clear winch and snorkel inventory?
BaseSquatch here! The best sticker by far imo is the Sasquatch that comes on the Base model. I can see why BB and OB owners would remove their stickers, but the Sasquatch looks cool. That said, who really cares one way or the other?
