I filled out the survey as well; my next best option (invoice, no ADM ect) would've been Van Bortel Ford up in Rochester, which is like 4.5 hours away from me. Would've been down for the trip, but Brewster is a lot closer to Dutchess County than Rochester is :)
Going with my gut on this one, but still indecisive af lol
Doors and Trim: 2 Door Base (or Big Bend, potentially)
Color: Antimatter Blue / Velocity Blue
Engine and Transmission: 2.3L 7-speed
Roof: Shadow Black Modular/Body Color Modular
Sasquatch:Maybe, if not then optional wheels
Packages...
At this point, I'm gravitating towards a Manual Basesquatch with maaaaaaaaaybe a couple add-ons, so while it sucks, it didn't really seem like x plan was gonna do a lot for me.
I totally forgot about Bowen's over in CT; that wouldn't be a bad drive at all from where I live, cuz I-84 is...
Eh, it's still....not super bad?
I'm not super busted up about x-plan; it wasn't going to save me a ton of money. Supposedly Van Bortel up in Rochester is doing invoice, but I haven't heard anything from that thread in awhile. At this point, Stephens might be the move.
It's still a 9 hour...
The funnier thing about this is a lot of people on this forum heard about the 392 trail concept and went "Eh who cares it's just another V8 FCA get a new party trick," but then will turn around and decry that 5.0's aren't going in Broncos from the factory any time soon. It's weird.
I honestly think 2Js are insanely overdone, but...I can't deny how hilarious the thought of an I6 with two turbines on it sounds screaming across the desert in a Bronco. Or an RB26 lol. Or EJ257...
Wait, no, we're thinking too small...
BARRA SWAP IT! :ROFLMAO:
Seems to come outta the woodwork any time the "BUH MUH V8" crowd comes out to play in my experience.
We get it, you want a v8. Buy a RAM or an F150 already lol.
You're a madman and I'm insanely interested in this hypothetical build
It's a shame nobody close by is even going to attempt to match but...if I pursued Granger I'd eat all of my savings in getting my trade-in out there, and getting the Bronco back to NY, as well as associated taxes/whatnot.
At that point, it's just smarter to stay local lol
If Leo Kaytes is just doing no ADM+X-plan, they're my closest option by a mile, cuz Friendly isn't being very "Friendly" and I work in Orange County anyways.
Really, the further we get down the wire, the more I'm thinking dealers like Stephens and Granger are the very big exceptions rather than...
If I seriously give a shit about it, I'm sure there will be plenty of options the aftermarket will allow me to replace it with.
For now though, I'm totally happy with it
Definitely considering this if some of the other options don't pan out. Rochester isn't a super long drive, and who knows, maybe Canada will let me in by then so I can go visit some friends in Toronto? :ROFLMAO:
You got more of a response from them and I've sent them two emails and HAVE A RESERVATION AT THEIR DEALERSHIP.
I feel like that's reason alone enough to avoid them, but your addition is just icing on the cake lol
I absolutely adore that year's interiors. Definitely feel like the STI lost something when they went (back, I guess?) to black and dark grey interiors.
And as for me...
Bronco? Because Bronco.
Something about OJ?
Nah, it's just a more updated, two-door first gen Forester XT (with an engine...
