Wow that’s surprising it got confirmed that quickly. I ordered mine a month ago and didn’t even get a confirmation yet. I know I’ll wait forever and I’m fine with that, but seems so weird when they get confirmed by ford.
Haven’t actually paid yet since it’s not been built yet, but signed a contract for $61k. Loaded badlands 2 door manual trans. MSRP and tax, etc included
This is what I’d be concerned about. I’ve only driven manual transmission vehicles since 2005, and I can’t tell you the last time I didn’t leave it in gear
I couldn't decide forever. I actually was not even originally considering A51. I was going to pick white or blue metallic. After owning a bunch of black vehicles I am excited to not have it look dirty 17 minutes after I wash it.
That people are thinking negatively and/or bashing Ford (being toxic). It was a joke, as someone waiting for a Bronco to be built I find it more funny than anything else.
Gearing definitely makes a very large difference. I’d guess that’s more what OP is feeling than simply being a manual transmission.
This is my build also but 2 door hard top.
It won’t be for awhile, just ordered on 1/14. Don’t even have official order confirmation email yet. No worries on that, only have 102k on my dd 2008 Ranger. However, regardless of how I drive it, it’ll have much more pop than my 4.0L 5 speed Ranger with 33x12.5x15s that I have to wind out to...
I guess I will find out what I think once I get mine. I certainly have little experience with small engine turbos. I drove a Saab for a few months back in 2005 (which was auto), otherwise I’ve only had manual N/A V6+s and supercharged V8s so my opinion isn’t very informed with turbo 4s
It just doesn’t seem to make much sense being in 5th instead of 6th unless you’re passing someone. Even if it’s a .5 mpg difference there’s zero negative effect of being out of your power range when you are planning on passing anyone
Finally put in an order, dealer brought out the paperwork to sign showing they’d charge MSRP without me even asking (although by time I get it they probably won’t be doing that anymore).
