I build high performance track cars and we joke at who can convince a customer to buy Gibbs.
I personally built and own an RB26 making 1000 at the crank and can tell you beyond a shadow of a doubt there is no limit you can push this 2.3 without SUBSTANTIAL modification and blueprinting where an...
Y'all are nuts straight up. This is a non limited, mass produced vehicle... Not UN airdrop rations over sub-Saharan Africa.
No one that actually wants a Bronco will go without, and no one deserves a 50k vehicle. If you have the money buy one, period.
OP is flipping to someone that places...
You seen the weather they get?
This was 2 days ago. 106mph wind and 3 inches of rain. Big ol parking lot? Your ride is getting sandblasted at that point. Wait till it snows or god forbid gets golfball hail like that area very regularly gets.
It's not gross negligence if it's "purely cosmetic".
I'd like to know why "purely cosmetic" on a $1000 roof is gonna cause my $50k build to sit outside in Michigan for 2 full seasons unmoved. Be a lot more "purely cosmetic" wear on the whole vehicle after than if they just send me the damn...
What's absolutely mental to me for fellow Dirt Mountaineers is how poorly they are addressing units built and just sitting around.
If it's cosmetic only, like they say, give us an option to waive Ford liability and accept a bad QC roof at which point FMC is out = Money Saved
If you can't waive...
Just spoke with my dealer, who required a $1k non-refundable deposit.
They are waiving and refunding it for anyone with a bad batch bronco should it arrive and you decide against delivery. So no need for me to cancel and the dealer has made right by me to the best of their abilities.
If my...
Not that anyone but us forum lurkers would care, but the silence is kinda hurting the value of MY21.
Only thing going for MY21 now is that there are so few, but once these are all over and MY22 comes out and has all the nonsense fixed, MY21 will take a noticeable hit IMO
If more MICs are being scheduled and built today (which is the case) either:
Lot Broncos are bad for something other than MICs
Ford has a solution to Broncos with Bad MICs.
My dealer said it's semi conductors, but that would delay the entire line. Either roofs are bad, or that whole bunch...
Truly Ford can do whatever they want, but how they handle this is largely going to determine how successful their own future business model is.
They want to sell ordered vehicles, not lot ones.
99% of people on this planet can not sit waiting 18 months in the dark for a $50+k vehicle. I do...
The only thing I'm curious about is for those of us with built models, what are they doing? Seems to be the MIC top but surely with their dealer network, whatever most are waiting for could be shot back to the customer for choice.
Hey you want it to ship without X? Well give you Y. Couldn't be...
