Prepped for hardtop means they added the connections and wires for the rear window washer wiper stuff. NO the hard top is not free and it is not available right now anyway.
One thing you can do to improve your odds of getting your bronco is to call up the dealer and remove the paint protection...
Based on my build 2dr BD sasquatch, and the number of people with earlier reservations than mine at the dealer. My dealer thinks its unlikely I get mine in either Q1 or Q2 22.
I don't have to watch my emails on thursdays, so I have that going for me.
Lets steal from the Tour de France. The guy who finishes last is the "Lantern Rouge" ie the red tail light on the train. Some kinda red lighted license plate frame commemorating his or hers "achievement"
If you don't want high or lux packages, You can get a Black diamond sasquatch with mid for about 1k less than a badlands nonsquatch. Only thing you can't have is the sway bar disconnect. Aftermarket will provide a manual disconnect I am sure it will be less than 1k.
I have an early day 2 reservation, my dealer thinks it unlikely I get it in Q1 or Q2 2022. Based on being a 2dr and how many other earlier reservations he has. He would not hazard a guess beyond that.
The advanced is about an $800 option. sometimes they add the option price other times the option is 0 but they jacked up the base truck price by $800.

The 10 speed automatic is mandatory to choose the mid package. But they don't add the trans as an added cost option. They add it as a 0$ option and increase the cost of the base vehicle price by the amount of the transmission.
Crazy way to run a car company but the numbers add up.

Building a black diamond 2 door.
Adding the full time 4wd transfer case was a 0 dollar add. ??
Choosing the $1500 Mid package automatically added the 10 speed automatic for $0 extra cost. !!!????
Nice but I figure that is a mistake.
The only top is a molded in grey color with lots of texture.
My dealer says their paint department can paint the top any color I desire. about $2500.
The painted tops being pushed to 23 was announced by Ford over 4 months ago..
