Okay, where did your wife get those stickers? Those are awesome...

@briggettek2 No, I just work nearby and I saw it when I was driving to work. So I called and said I’m a res holder and I’d like to drive it. They said to come by whenever. So I did. They were very casual about the whole thing. I asked one of the salesmen and he said they’ve delivered one to a...

I've so far seen four colors, all on four-door soft tops, most on Squatch wheels. Here are my impressions: - Rapid Red - I saw it on a grey, rainy day. Under cloudy skies it was just a boring burgundy. Not for me. Though my 2019 Soul Red Crystal Miata RF does the same thing. Boring under...

I was just going to suggest this. If you don’t really need the hardcore off-road gear, the Black Diamond will get you plenty of capability for entry-level off-roading. And with a soft top, a 4-dr with the 2.7L and the mid-package will land you around $45k.

Unknown. I was a 7/14 reservation holder, but I'm holding out for the MIC top, so...

Good point. But it also has the shorter final drive. So maybe a wash? In the light of day, let me attempt to distill my thought process a little better… The package we all want is the 7MT with the 2.7L. Since Ford isn’t offering it, everyone’s making a compromise. Small engine with the...

Yankee Ford in South Portland has their mannequin. Cyber Orange 4dr Badlands, 2.3L, 10AT, Lux, Sasquatch, soft top. They let me take it out for an hour yesterday. No off-road, but I got some highway, some urban, some suburban. My biggest takeaway was that it’s much more livable in traffic...

I reserved my Bronco a year ago today (July 14th): 4dr black diamond, A51, MIC top, Roof rails, 7MT. My plan was to have this as the adventure mobile to compliment my wife’s family car for our family of four. My dealer got a mannequin in this week. It’s a 4dr Badlands, Sasquatch, Lux, 2.3L...

What is the limiting factor in the tow rating? The Bronco shares a lot with the Ranger, right? And the ranger, with a 2.3L can tow 7500lbs. Is it the lack of extra cooling for the engine or transmission?

I also went to see them in Portsmouth. I'm in South Portland. Reservation in the first 24 hours, was told by the sales manager that I have the first allocation at Yankee Ford (also in SoPo), but still no build date. Ordered a 4 door Black Diamond, only option I added was the hard top, and we...

I had the same dilemma. Here was how I made my decision and ended up with the 7MT: You know why you want a manual. You understand the added engagement brings joy to the driving experience. And it prevents you from dealing with a bad automatic. At this point, the 10AT is a crapshoot. It's in...

This.

@Red Devil's Rebel Hey Ann - Was nice to meet you, however brief. I stuck around for a few minutes to chat before we left, but you were in another conversation and I had to get going. Hopefully our paths will cross again! After a first look and a chance to sit behind the wheel, are you more...

Congratulations. You just won the internet.

Going to see these in Portsmouth on Monday…can’t wait! Does anyone else think the signature lights look worse than the lower trim lights?

Cool, but also…bummer! Was hoping for an excuse to go somewhere on an adventure getaway to do the offrodeo. But I guess it’ll be nice to meet the locals and learn some cool trails in my backyard.

@Red Devil's Rebel My wife and I are also booked for the 11-12 slot. My name’s Adam. I’m about 5’7” with a beard. My wife’s a 5’ redhead. Introduce yourself if you see us!

Thanks for the tip! I just registered. It looks like I’ll be driving down from Portland. Hopefully I’ll have a build date by then!

Sorry if I missed it, but is Ford going to keep doing scheduling emails every Thursday ? Is that what we should be planning for? I haven't read anything specific about announcements after today's emails.

I looked at what’s included with the package…just a hitch mount and wiring. $600 for that is CRAZY. There’s no oil coolers or other mechanical components that will make this a necessary upgrade. If you don’t need the 7-pin controller, you will be able to get the same kit from Etrailer.com or...
