  1. Leaning in to orange accents

    I’ve got orange/black paracord grab handles. They’re nice. I’m also Cyber Orange exterior, so it actually is tough. I don’t need a lot more orange on the exterior… ;)
  2. Getting fed up...

    Your post implies you may not understand how moving your order relates to your timing at your new dealer. Moving your order maintains your reservation date. So, if you moved to a dealer with, say, 20 orders, you might be order number 15 there. And if they have enough allocations you could...
  3. Got a build date and VIN! Can't believe it!!

    It’s the soft top. Soft top gets you a chance right away. It’s obviously the largest constraint.
  4. Bronco's unexpected quirks. What'cha got!?

    Does it mute the radio? If it does, I'll take it all back. I'll try it next time I'm in there.
  5. Bronco's unexpected quirks. What'cha got!?

    I really wish there was a mute button. Our JT has a mute button that also pauses whatever is playing. It's perfect for the drive thru or other cases where I just need it silent for a second. I've had vehicles with mute on the steering wheel - even better! I can obviously find pause on the...
  6. Overland 2-Door Badlands Sasquatch Build | Major Tom

    Cool - I'm very interested. Thanks, and I'm excited to see Major Tom's development!
  7. Overland 2-Door Badlands Sasquatch Build | Major Tom

    Talk to me about the Yeti Link car kit - is it better than just plugging into the 12v? (I mean, it must be...)
  8. Bronco's unexpected quirks. What'cha got!?

    I definitely had to relearn after owning a Wrangler. I found that if you allow the strut to do the work it's slow but easy. If you try to swing it open faster than the strut wants to, it'll fight you. Ditto. I was very excited about the idea of everything being wireless, but it simply can't...
  9. Its Thursday i guess i didn’t make the cut?!?

    They are completely unrelated. You're going to get Off-Roadeo emails no matter what your status.
  10. Using 2H/4A/4H in Snow-Different Scenarios?

    As noted above, this is inaccurate and should be disregarded. 4H is not for use on dry pavement as the transfer case is locked.
  11. Kiss of Death

    Considering most people go for free (or will be refunded), plus many have guest credits, I don't think Ford is making much. What might be challenging for them is that they likely need a certain amount of attendance to keep their partners happy - hotel, food, etc.
  12. Gawker says "Wow...that the full size Bronco? All I see is little Girl Broncos..."

    The link isn't that allocations are linked, it's that Bronco Sport sales now influence Bronco allocations. You shouldn't get one if you think it's ugly.
  13. Order question

    Unless you are at a low-volume dealer with a ton more reservations than allocations, you shouldn't have to wait three years. Most orders will get filled in 2022 barring further major supply chain disruptions. The exception will be some of the smaller dealers who have a lot of Bronco orders.
  14. Order question

    You do have to contact your dealer to make changes, but you can change anything up until you are assigned a build date and get your VIN. A soft top would make your build more likely to happen sooner, but there are still a lot of variables.
  15. Another blown 2.7 engine on a Bronco

    Many of the dropped valve engines seem to be happening in very low mileage (up to a couple thousand). The problem is the "Bad Batch" engines haven't been out a long time so there aren't a lot of them that have more than a couple thousand miles on them...so who knows? That said, if you go search...
  16. Wiring Harness ruined by Driveshaft

    This seems most likely - and not something there "isn't a fix for." Likely didn't get zip tied or clipped everywhere it was supposed to. Dealer should have replaced and knocked that out in no time.
  17. 📝 UPDATE Dec 12th: My Letter to the Ford Executive Team: Submitted Customer Feedback Proposal and Response

    You can look at it that way, or you could look at it from Ford's perspective which includes 120,000+ orders before they'd ever produced one. And direct contact with end customers. The dealer network still creates challenges for this model, and Ford will have to find new ways to navigate it...
  18. 📝 UPDATE Dec 12th: My Letter to the Ford Executive Team: Submitted Customer Feedback Proposal and Response

    Actually, I'm guessing in spite of the challenges Ford views its reservation program as a success. Ford will have to continue to improve, and it's getting a hard lesson in many of the areas it'll have to improve, but I don't see a "failure of epic proportions" here. I see a bold step forward...
  19. Yes, another first weeks (1000+ mile) ownership impressions, stats, and issues.

    I'm guessing the 80+mph comments are your main culprit. There's no way to drive this brick at 80mph or more and get good mileage unless you've got a strong tailwind and are going downhill. These things are going to be really sensitive to wind in general at high speeds. A cross or, god forbid...
  20. How to get dealer to confirm sale price/sales contract, best way to cancel if not?

    If you can get your dealer to share the "MSRP only" in an email or other written document, it would give you something. While there are horror stories here, the likelihood is that they'll honor it. That said, if none of that feels good to you, you can call Ford and transfer your...
