The capable bumper, to me, is better looking. If I do decide to add a winch, I'm not a fan of the options for the modular and I'd have to go aftermarket anyways. Unfortunately, I've hated every single aftermarket bumper I've seen so far so that's not even an option yet. I'm just not down with...

That's what I plan to do with mine.

I'd guess pretty much everyone with an order in the system. It's just confirmation that they're not taking any more news orders for '22 right now. I don't see why that's a huge deal. If anything, it'll keep people from coming in off the street and getting orders at big dealerships before...

I don't care so much about the Fox shocks but that steering rack and upgraded tie rods ends should be made available for the Badlands.

Sticker on my Badlands order is $57k. If this really does land in that low $50k to $60k range I'm going to have a hard time not jumping ship. The Ranger doesn't carry the "Bronco/Wrangler tax" so the Raptor is more truck for the money.

Not gonna lie, this could pull me away from my Bronco order.

Those aren't bugs. Both of those things were part of the announcement. It's basically a warmed over Black Diamond. Lands somewhere between it and under the Badlands.

Yup. YUP. Spend a bunch of money of new wheels just to have any real detail of their design fade away from about 10 feet+ out.

Not all-black.

I'm just saying they could probably get more reservations out of the system if they quit modifying the allocations away from putting importance on them....it's down to what 50% of the consideration now?

Same. Same. Wasn't expecting to get an invite so not incredibly disappointed.

Huh? The beauty rings shouldn't need to be re-tightened every 300 miles...the Bronco "bead-lock capable wheels" have two distinct areas of the wheels to bead the tire. Use the inner bead and they function like any other conventional wheel out there. In this scenario, the beauty rings are just...

Yup. All this. People really have no idea how expensive, in both material and machining, things like this can be that are of any quality.

Oh, and we probably need a few dozen more posts grousing about Ford releasing new editions🙄🙄🙄. The development of this or the Raptor has zero effect on what's happening on the assembly line. The Engineering and Marketing groups don't stop working just because there are issues on the...

Outside of the squared off fenders not seeing a lot of "gotta have it" here, especially if it's only available with the 4-banger. Seems to slot in above the Black Diamond but below the Badlands in terms of content.

The MIC top and the modular top are not the same. The modular top was SMC/Fiberglass versus the molded plastic of the MIC. Much easier to paint, should be more rigid, maybe even better insulating from the elements/sound. At this point, I want nothing to do with the MIC top whether it can be...

Let's step thru this logically. What was the price of the dual top option? Less than $3k IIRC. That includes the soft top and MIC hard top. The price of the soft top is built into the base MSRP. Since you keep the soft top with the dual top package the cost of the dual top package is essentially...

The top is $695 over and above the cost of the standard soft top tho not just $695.

For a small scale hand laid fiberglass top like this is versus an industrial scale operation like Webasto this is probably right in the ball park pricing wise.

That $7k estimate was never accurate 🙄. That was put together by trying to buy all the pieces individually. You'll always gets a much better price buying the whole assembly under a single part number.
