My opinion is the opposite... I think that the point of these posts are not to inform you, since you get it, but to to show these dealers that their actions will be in the public view. A mega thread with a reference to bad dealers would be handy, but for web presence, individual threads would...

Awesome work, man! Makes the decision between capable and modular bumpers tougher... Until someone finds a way to make the capable work with this.

Sounds like you guys literally can't stop "crying" over a past insult as an excuse to kick a guy while down. Personally, I still don't think Grainger would be worth the hassle when figuring the extra $1000 for plane tickets, gas home, and potential lodging. Most if all, I would not want to lose...

I'm not an expert on the issue as I was away from the keyboard for a long time after finding my Day-2 reservation had to be delayed in order to get the Mansquatch. But... I don't think any of those future price fixes (up or down) are guaranteed, or likely, for a new reservation. The price...

When will invoices be sent? No rush, just curious if I missed an email or not.

He may very well get a new Bronco before Grainger allocates all of theirs... Back to the OP's problem, instead of members attacking members: Hopefully Ford will see the true problem: that even FANATIC Bronco enthusiasts are at the end of their patience and are turning. The ADM problem won't be...

Are there any details that you can share publicly that might help the next guy? Did F (or whomever) say there could/would have been a positive result otherwise?

And the issue isn't entirely MSRP prices as long as reservations be moved. The problem I am seeing is a lot of implied MSRP prices during ordering, then surprise ADM when the truck is delivered and the high-pressure sale is on.... Dangling the bronco like a carrot "take it or leave it". I...

Glad to hear this! If I end up dealing with any ADM shenanigans, I will move my "reservation" to another dealership with a tow truck. 😂

You are confusing "bought" v "ordered" cars. If the sticker shows ADM, yes almost anyone would haggle. If a person reserves a vehicle, on the other hand, then brings that reservation to the dealer of choice, then walks away with MSRP pricing on a signed order sheet... It is reasonable for most...

I just attempted ordering this emblem last night from Ford parts online, and the order immediately went though, only to be cancelled this morning due to a "national backorder" from the manufacturer. Bummer.

I wonder if these ADM incidents are similar enough to be raised as a class action suit for those who are damaged and find no solution? It has been years and years since my dealings with contracts, but these order sheets smell an awful lot like: (A) a signed offer and acceptance of a bronco...

This is ideal. As stated, in addition the the extended range, this is almost necessary for anyone transporting fuel in a vehicle with no separate cargo area. Keeping rotating cans, one on the Bronco and one in the garage for mowers and such, would fit my needs perfectly. And it looks nice!

On second thought: my entire post just above was based on the assumption that aftermarket switches would be bulky and not as nicely integrated with the looks of the interior, thus not my preferred option. If a style of switch exists that looks nice and is the right size... Your idea of making a...

These are interesting ideas. As long as I already have the upfitters, I will probably look at solutions for that panel in order to keep a nice look and to not have more switches than the space shuttle. 😂 I have a long while yet until the Bronco arrives, and no specific plans for wiring, so I...

Ah! Looked up the maker and found some photos. Even IF you could replace the switch itself, there are more shenanigans that would have to happen with the relays. I guess the module is a double edged sword... Super useful wiring for simple projects, but not very expandable.

I was reading a thread about reverse lighting and it has me thinking about future projects. Are the auxillary Switches a proprietary design, or are they swappable with commonly available switches? I'm thinking it would be handy if 3-position switches or momentary switches were direct, and...

When the 2022 Scheduling was announced, there was some fine print directing dealers to have a signed agreement and a $500 deposit. I suspect this is to combat the excessive dealer markups after ordering... Both the signature and the downpayment are steps required to create a contract, and...

I can concede these points, but there are also many good "4x4 tires" for the snow. My duratracs, for example, are exceptional in slick environments, whether skinny or wide. I don't have any studies, but I always corellated trucks in the ditch with poor weight distribution over the rear.

Fortunately, I never had to do a warranty claim on those vehicles. I ate a couple CV boots then joints after 80,000 miles, but I had exceeded the limitations of the suspension a bit. There are specific warranty laws that allow consumers to replace components with similar parts (a napa timing...
