I hear you--long time since a car payment here too. Up until now it has kind of been a thought experiment. VIN #s, window stickers, etc. make it finally something you can grasp. Reality is very close.

I guess with rail & transport the only thing left before taking delivery, I better buy all the items in my Amazon shopping cart--Faraday bags, shampoo, detailers, microfiber towels, etc. (have no reason to detail an '01 Ranger with 215k and rust starting to bubble inside out at the back of the...

Tear tag is LPT3

Yes, today's date on sticker.

Hope springs eternal. Was 17/1093 today. Just checked, modules have populated. Now only rail to KC, then transport to dealer.

Hey guys. Can I hang with you all? Not a big talker here. A 7/26/20 res date for a 2dr BD 2.3 7mt VB at a small family dealership central KS. Got my VIN email back on 5/29 saying 6/13 build week. Then last week Wed., got my window sticker and a 6/22 blend. Probably not in time for my vacation...

When I told my sister and nieces that I had reserved a Bronco, she asked 3 questions: 1) Is it a 2dr?, 2) Is it a manual? and 3) Is it a blue like dad's '68 special order Acapulco Blue? I answered "yes" to all 3. Will not change. Will wait however long it takes. Family commitment rules.

Ford & Levine are living rent free in our 500+ day res date heads. They own us. Us res holders are marketing pawns to generate more interest. Ford can take all our screaming/venting and go straight to the shareholders and say, "look at all this publicity." Didn't a former President say that...

How about the Administrator start a pool that we all throw a dollar in to see who goes the longest until they receive their build? No 99ing of course. Gotta make the wait interesting otherwise we'll go nuts. I'm at 486.

Stopped in yesterday to re-confirm my order. I said no changes and the dealership owner printed out the new work order. The BD trim adds the Mod bumper back on as a $575 option, so I had them take it off for the standard steel capable bumper with the fog lights I want and I was good to go...

Put Carl Spackler on the job? Seriously, I seem to remember that DIA had a huge problem with brake lines being eaten while in long term parking.

Beautiful engine bay. Congrats!

Tough call... either Billy Preston "Will it go round in circles" or Cream "Born under a bad sign."--"If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all"

Either Motorcraft synthetic or Penzoil Ultra Platinum oil. Plus a Wix 51348XP filter. It has synthetic media in it.

Old money vs new money. Old money can be savings, money market, cd's, stocks, etc. Even an emergency fund. New money is that paycheck that you get every week, biweekly, etc. Either way works. All about personal comfort level moving forward.

That was the first thing about 4-wheeling I learned from my Pops. Tire placement and a good line. Very seldom did he scrape skid plates on his stock '68 Bronco. The one time he ran into trouble, skid plates didn't make a difference. A rock shifted on him and he pushed the tie rod back into the...

Check Amazon. The Harken top hoist has changed from just Jeep to Jeep/Bronco hoist.

Was in Iceland back in '19. While I was driving a Hyundai diesel 4wd rental, I was constantly ogling all the classic Defenders and huge E-350 tour group machines (one company is called Mountain Taxi) for fording rivers. I finally noticed Jimnys everywhere. Perfect, basic 4wd. Oh yeah, I wanted...

We can sing along with Janis, Oh Lord, won't you build me a Bronco Big Bend My friends all drive Wranglers, I must make amends Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends So Lord, won't you build me a Bronco Big Bend

I wonder how long it will be before someone clips a Camelbak Hydration pack to the Molle grid and snakes a hose up front? The heck with cup holders.
