I am cracking up reading these responses. Do people even understand that nothing has been said by Ford about releasing Bronco's with reduced functionality?
The first article makes no mention of Bronco, and the second is nothing more than speculation based on what Ford told dealers at NADA. It’s no different than someone saying…
1. I like ice cream
2. Ice cream makes me cold.
3. Obviously I like being cold.
Number 3 cannot be assumed from 1 & 2...
That is fine, but your thread title says “Ford will ship Broncos without chips” and you have no proof that is true.
Here is a link verified that Ford Will start shipping Explorers with missing functionality...
I don't understand how anyone can think that the exhaust on a 2.7L engine is going to ever sound like anything more than a fart-can on a Honda...much less "good".
So Ford spec'd the tops to not color match between panels, to have some edges finished and others not, and to delaminate? Webasto screwed the pooch on this.
