I was getting BD with a manual but will need to move up to BL because I still want the mid package, which is not offered with a manual. I don't do serious off road here in NJ, so I don't really care about the upgraded suspension, but I do like the higher gear ratio, signature lights, and...
FAQ Ford.com:
Can I change the equipment series?
If you want to change your vehicle equipment series such as changing from Base to Big Bend, you do not need to make a new reservation. You will be able to make these changes when you place your order.
I can't even get on. Message says "Hold your horses" and a 60 sec counter that keeps resetting after it counts down to 0. Anyone else have trouble getting on B&P?
I felt the same way. However, it would be nice on rainy days or icy days when you slip a bit during full stop accelerations but I don't want to keep in in 4H because you are on the road. In that case I can see using the 4A.
That is not correct or they would not offer it on the BL with a Manual.
I'm pissed because I love the BD just wanted it with a mid package. Now I"m forced to spend another 6-8K on the BL and I hate that orange accent and grill.
I"m looking to get either a BD or BL and dislike the orange or blue accents. Honestly, I just want plain grey/black seats. Is there a way to avoid any accent at all?
Agree. I loved the defender and it could have been great if they brought it back like the original. Given the high demand and cost for a used one, I am surprised they went the way they did and not stick with the original formula. Same for Jeep Grand Wagoneer. It could have been a alternate...
Finally a decent side picture of the BD with the black steel wheels. Looks good in black too. I was considering switching to the BL model, but this rendering looks great to me.
I'm thinking the black top if you are getting black wheels. I'm guessing the mirrors and fenders will also be black if you get the black top? not sure.
I also went to downs. They did say they will "probably" accept X-plan and they they will not charge extra or add dealer add-ons. But I didn't get a good feeling from them.
Wow, you are down to 3 colors? lol. I'm thinking OW, IS, CG, the other CG, and A51. But to be honest, this bronco looks great in all colors, so I don't think we could make a mistake.
I love the steel wheels. It's the reason I'm going with BD. However I am not crazy about the shiny black and prefer the matt look in the Ford picture. I also like the tire better than the grabbers.
Please stop talking about the MIC grey top, lol.
I guess we have our answer:
5. Is the modular hard top in Shadow Black the only option with removal rear windows?
That is correct. Rear window removal is not available with the molded hard top in Carbonized Grey.
Ahh i didn't realize that. I'm guessing it's not. They probably want you to upgrade. Man, what is a black hardtop going to cost? I'm also not liking that it's shiny. Maybe the MIC Gray won't be so bad, even without a pop out window. The good news is the build feature for the bronco on the Ford...
