  1. Rear mud flaps…what’s the point?

    you have it right, might keep some spray off your vehicle, but it mainly keeps you from throwing rocks, water, mud, whatever your rear tires pick up that you neglected to clean off your tires before getting on a public roadway and subjecting innocent people to broken windshields, blinding...
  2. received my VIN and build date today

    Congrats! The axle ratio is a bit puzzling to me through, thought Big Bend was either a 3.73 or 4.70. This 4.27 was only optional on the Outer Banks, and that is with a locker and advanced transfer case, no? Did you get the $7000 Sasquatch package? Edit; Sig lights, you got an OB and not a...
  3. Base 2dr 7speed vs used Gx470 off-road.

    The newest 470 is what, at least 13 years old? You are getting into a whole host of age related costs even if you can get a low mile, abuse-free example. Parts, especially any electronic ones will be all junkyard parts. If you want a toy, then maybe, but if you want to have it as a reliable...
  4. Dealer and/or Ford lost my order but got one in with ADM

    They were not trying to make up for anything, they knew you wanted one, got screwed out of a shot and were offering you what they thought the market could bear (unless they are close on a name match and the one they got in really was your reservation).
  5. Now You Want It

    This hypothetical person chose to announce the intent to walk away and get their deposit back instead of letting it ride and seeing what happens. They then took what, they claim, the dealer told them over a year ago and, presumably, never contacted them again, and waited until it was finished...
  6. Bronco Team 2 door.

    Saw my first 2-door in the wild today (far NW suburbs of Chicago, Lake in the hills). Cactus Gray, I believe. Cemented my correct (and never wavering) initial 2-door choice. (my shoulders are a bit wide for the 4-door anyway.) Looking good!
  7. Ford- throw us a bone!

    You chose to wait, you could have cancelled (still can!), bought something else, an infinite amount of other stuff you could do, but you chose to wait. Why should Ford compensate you for your personal choice? If you feel that the deal is no good unless you get extended warranty for free, then...
  8. To trade, keep, or have both?

    While you believe you have 'upgraded' your truck, it would take a special buyer to give you even half of that cost over the current value of a stock F-150. Essentially, you are likely going to eat most or all of that $10K if you trade or sell it. Consider it an additional cost on top of the...
  9. How long are you keeping your Bronco Raptor for?

    probably keep it about the same amount of time from my reservation until the time I get it, so maybe four years.
  10. Best oil for 2.7???

    I am firmly convinced that anyone who starts a "Which oil is best" thread on the internet is just a mega-troll who will laugh for weeks and months at the people getting into rage posts against one another for 300 pages. Go with the specs the manufacturer recommends and you will be fine with any...
  11. Added aeroskin hood deflector shield and hood scoop

    It's not hate, it is ridicule. If you like it though, the Hell with everyone else, including me.
  12. I just wanted to park alone…..

    you got furious because someone decided to park near you in a parking lot? Seek help. Seriously.
  13. Ford emails stopped

    How many gray crayons do you need?
  14. Ford emails stopped

    Ford has never, ever, once apologized for anything. They blame suppliers, claim Ford is the real victim, and tells you how much it costs them. Go back and actually closely read all their emails, they are masters of the non-apology apology. I would regain most of the respect I used to have...
  15. 2021 Bronco Wildtrak SAS LUX … Worth the wait, do NOT bail

    WOW! another person who claims that it was worth the wait! It is a bold statement indeed; imagine a vehicle so good that it can make up for two or more lost Summers (because you get an unlimited supply of those, right?) of family and friend memories out on the trails in a Jeep that could have...
  16. Using Order Tracker "Average Time" Instead of Vehicle Count

    Your theory makes a lot of assumptions. I can easily assert my theory (that is based on the logical inference that the average time per unit would come down a lot faster based on increasing the denominator (number of vehicles finished with production. ) The fastest way for that to happen is not...
  17. 2023 MY Bronco Order Bank Opens 8/15

    The addition of allocations after the original terms and conditions essentially made all of them priority builds over the promised time stamp priority order. Sure, the current allocation formula does not consider reservation orders as a factor. Ford fulfills Bronco orders for dealers without...
  18. [Update: It’s Back!!] Delivered Bronco taken back to Michigan by Ford

    best guess; Subject to a stop sale, windshield most likely. Ford had to take it so the dealer doesn't accidentally sell it. Just released for shipping accidentally or found to be subject to a stop sale after it left
  19. Does it hurt economically or in delivery time to lower your order options?

    They don't currently offer a dual top option, so you are currently unable to be scheduled for build at least until 2023MY. Ford has been clear that your order date will not qualify for any relief from the 2022 and 2022.5 increase if not built in 2022MY (the 2023MY increases aren't known, but you...
  20. Bronco seems like it is under load when parked

    It is under load when you are holding it with the brakes and the engine running. The engine torque will tend to compress the suspension. When you put it in park, you have disconnected that engine power.
