not too many if your that early. You SHOULD get yours within the first week or so of delivery.
it’s hard to say. Because there has never been anything like this. A mass production vehicle you can reserve.
as of right now SEMA and LA Auto are both on track to be open this November.
I assume the biggest part of why production is pushed so far back is due to government testing and approval (epa iihs etc)
As well as finalized assembly prep which was just NOW allowed to be restarted.
I think Sasquatch is a assembly line package not a “add on.” Other wise ford is going to...
So the timeline has become more clear, as well as the total reservations. THIS IS ALL SPECULATION
So there has been roughly 240,000 total reservations. And here at Bronco6G we have roughly 2,400 going to members. or 1/100
if I looked at the chart we have correctly about 2/3 (66.67%) or 1600 of...
but high rpm torque is mostly only used for top end speed. 50-80mph pulls. How many people are going to be doing that in a BRONCO. Mustang sure but not a 73” tall box.
Bronco 30-65k
C7 Corvette 60k -140k yes 2-3x on average.
the ford 7 speed is a completely new transmission. Meaning if they wanted a 2.7 manual they would have to make up their own gearing. Which takes HOUR AND HOURS TO RND. Test driving. Computer models. And test after test for mpg and...
Also if your worried about that little bit of turbo lag. The Raptor f150 has An anti lag mode. (When in Baja) I’m sure it will be in rock mode too for the bronco.
corvette is also 2x -3x the price of a bronco.
As I’ve said before you COULD make a transmission work for both. However The gearing would be awkward for each. It’s better to have a gear set up that fits the engine perfectly. Especially an off road Turbo set up.
Ford very easily could whip...
just looking at the Bronco6G graph. More than half of our reservations are within that first 48hours. Meaning if that’s true for ALL the reservations. That means roughly 60-80,000 broncos were reservation then. So that very well could be WEEKS difference just being an hour apart
ACTUAL DYNOS HAVE TORQUE CONVERTERS
how many times have we been over this?
modern day torque converters don’t lock up until 2500 rpm or so. So the engine torque will be massively different than output torque.
these are based off of flywheel dynos. Not wheel dynos.
the 2.7 hits peak 400lbft...
it’s more complicated than that. Simply due to logistics and what trim. it will be as close to reservation time as possible. Plus or minus a few days.
no it would not have Been marginal.
new bell hosing and gearing and rear end combinations plus EPA testing
It’s not as simple as slap it in there and it works.
hence why the
2.3, 5.0 and 5.2 mustang ALLL have different gearing and different rear ends. Even tho they are all a 6 speed manual...
again. Torque curve is better on 2.7 vs 5.0
and theres no sudden rush. You torque converter is going to cause more lag than your turbo.
now if your in a manual sure. But the 2.7 doest have a manual sooo.
who cars about that in a TRUCK. If we were talking sports car and quarter mile times sure.
but where talking a truck/ suv. Where low end torque is key. Used for pulling and hauling and getting over rocks.
I see a lot of people worried about negotiating prices with dealers first.
build and price tool will be out NEXT MONTH. Meaning you will have at least 60-90 days to get a MSRP from the build and price tool and contact your dealer and see how much they would charge. Then simply change dealers...
This 10000%
Most converters work like this
0-1000 rpm anti stall
1000-2250rpm build up
2250+ Rpm locked
meaning it means NOTHING what’s below 2250 rpm because your not getting max torque.
and GTFO with thermal dynamics and heat transfer. Here’s what matters
How much gas in vs how much...
MASSIVE NEWS!
I have a feeling that call center is going to get VERY busy!
In short.
If you want to change dealers call 800-334-4375 before October 31, 2020
After that you can change and complete the specs of your ORDER on December xx, (early) 2020.
Very good on ford!
Mustang has a V8 for the high end torque speed that you virtually can only get in a v8.
People want a v8 f150 for the torque to pull and haul. And let me tell you a secret. The 2.7 makes more low end torque (for the most part). And gets better mpg. That’s why so many more people buy the 2.7 vs...
