I did. I actually had two open reservations. I had a day 2 reservation with my local dealer (the one with the less than efficient service department) and an October Granger reservation. The Bronco that died was an abandoned order that I picked up at Liberty Ford in Ohio. I used the early res...
I had a minor accident in a Model S. My repair experience was not very different from any other car I've ever had. It took a while to get the new repair panel, but not really much worse than a Mazda I had some years ago. Also, Tesla service centers are starting to do collision repair now...
Yeah, I had the same concerns. Even if they "fix" mine, it will still be a Bronco that was torn apart by a dealership several times and pieced back together. I wrote Ford a certified letter citing the provisions of the lemon law in my state and, as we are well past the time requirement, they...
If they quit up-charging the Mansquatch for nonexistent 10AT, I am in for a 2-door '22 Mansquatch in either CO or EG. Otherwise, I will stick with my '21 4-door Badlands. With the addition of all colors on the base, I also am having passing thoughts about a 2-door base nosquatch. It really is...
All of this is why the traditional third party dealer network system is garbage. The only reason these scumbags can do this is because dealer lobbies in every state have pushed for ridiculous laws preventing direct sales. We have all ordered these vehicles from Ford. Cronyism and good old boy...
I was an early res, late order just like you. The big difference is I went Badlands soft top. I placed order in early September '21 on a day 2 reservation. I got scheduling email the next day. You switch to soft top, I bet you'd schedule quickly.
I'm another one in the "failed" column. I gave up and bought an automatic Wrangler. But that's hers and we have other automatics she can use as backup, so the Bronco is a stick. I'm one of those manual or die types. The 7-speed is awesome.
Sorry to hear you didn't have the experience you were expecting. We went last month and had two guides for about 8 Broncos. We had a blast. I can see how rain and only one guide could make for slow going. They turned us loose a lot and we drove everything except the big obstacles without...
That's fine, but it relies on pure speculation. I loved my Bronco when I had it and was just as active on the forum if not more. I still love Broncos and despite my experience, I don't have a negative opinion. Well, maybe about my dealer service center! Bottom line, Ford is obviously...
To me this actually just demonstrates that a wider population sample of owners would UNDERreport problems and this forum is more accurate. Just because a soccer mom doesn’t notice a QC issue doesn’t mean it isn’t there.
There are a lot of very differing views in this thread. As someone with a lot of experience with Tesla, I can say I have had nothing but great service experiences. Every time one of my Teslas (we've had two) needs service, they either come perform the service at my house or give a me a nice...
I honestly think if you’re asking this question, you should be buying the auto. There is no logical reason to buy the manual (or Manuel). You buy it if you love driving and can’t fathom the thought of buying an auto when a stick is available. I’ve talked to people who said they switched to...
Probably a very unpopular opinion, but I love our Jeep (2020 JLUW). We don't have a Gladiator, but the Mojave is incredibly cool and a 6-speed Mojave sounds pretty rad to me. The manual Jeeps are also quicker and get better mileage than the 7-speed Bronco. The abysmal departure/breakover...
Ha ha, I was wondering how hot it was. I did the New Hampshire one and the weather was unbelievable. Almost everyone in my group put the top back and did the whole thing top down/windows open.
Ha ha, I didn't even think about that. It's true though. That sweet manual Badlands in the sluice box at NH is a preproduction unit that nobody is allowed to drive anymore. They said that one was getting crushed.
