They can exclude a model, and they do in some cases. I'm unable to find a list of vehicles known to be excluded from X-Plan pricing, but it's usually the limited production vehicles that are excluded. Think Raptor, GT350, and GT500. The Bronco won't be a limited production vehicle, so I...

Then I think @BuckedOff-Road is SOL with his (yep, assuming gender) plan anyway, since the 3.0L the same case and head as the 2.7L. Maybe he can pull the 3.5L out of a wrecked F-150 Raptor and bore it out to 4.0?

Get a 2.7 from a wrecked F-150, bore it to 4.0 and adjust the stroke however you need to instead. That way you start with the port injection already there. At that point, you're not tearing up the new Bronco, because you're not removing any parts, thus "preserving the integrity of the factory...

Guess we'll find out in 12 days, 16 hours, and whatever's left on the clock as I type this.

If that's you're investing strategy, who am I to question it?

100 is all you need to qualify for X-Plan as a shareholder. If you believe in the company, buy as many shares as you can afford without wrecking the diversity of your portfolio.

I'm going to guess "no" since the configurator for the 2021 F-150 still isn't available, and that vehicle was revealed last week.

You can also get X-plan a few other ways. Membership in certain clubs (Mustang Club of America, for example) will get it for you. X-Plan is also available to Ford stockholders, as long as they own 100 or more shares, and have owned at least 100 shares for at least 6 months prior to applying...

Not being sarcastic. The sound of your bike shouldn't be the only safety feature, but don't discount it as a possible safety feature. There have been times when I'd be driving along, and notice the rumble of a cruiser that I didn't notice come up on me in my mirrors, and that rumble was the...

Fun fact: The loud ass noise the Harley (and other bikes) makes is actually a safety feature. Motorcycles are much smaller than even the tiniest of compact cars on the road in the US today. And unlike those compact cars, they don't have airbags or crumple zones to help protect the driver when...

Even the Pope has to have a hobby...

This is probably worth it for the leveling kit and suspension upgrade backed by the factory warranty. The wheels are "meh" in my opinion (not saying they don't or won't look cool, but rims aren't much of a performance upgrade. I have some suggestions on where they can put the graphics...

Yeah, I've been pretty down on hybrids, but seeing what they've done with the hybrid F150 actually interests me. If that system comes to the Bronco and it doesn't come at too much of a premium, I may be tempted. I'll have to see how it holds up over the long term before I'm converted, though.

Good to know. The lane keeping system in the rental Camry I got stuck with didn't care if you stayed in your lane. It just flipped its shit from time to time for no good reason. Admittedly, the roads in Oklahoma suck, so it may have seen a pothole and freaked out, or it may have seen a line...

I just trolled myself a little bit. I live in a place where the best option for non-dial-up Internet is cellular hotspots, and I frequently use all of my 4G hotspot data on both my MiFi hotspot and my cell phone. I just had the thought "Hey, when I'm out of data now, I can just connect to the...

My mom lusted after various Jeeps for years, but my dad forbade it because Chrysler makes garbage with wheels. So after going through a BMW 318ti and wearing out dad's '04 Silverado when he upgraded to an F-150, she now drives a 4x4 XTerra. I could actually see her getting a Bronco, though.

I read somewhere (elsewhere on this forum, F-150 reveal thread, I think), that the Ranger and Everest in Australia are getting a PowerBoost, but it's based around the 2.3L. So, if Bronco gets a "PowerBoost" hybrid engine, it may be that same 2.3L.

Close enough. :P

Ah, that would do it. My commute is almost 100% highway. I have 1.5 miles of city driving and 1/3rd of a mile of driveway driving. The rest is highway, although there is a reduction in speed limit and a stop light on the highway 6.5 miles from my house. Still, I get to run 65-70 most of the...

I think you might be putting too much weight into the skinny pedal there, hoss. That, or the 5.7 is a really inefficient engine. I fill my Tundra up every half tank, which puts it every 180 to 200 miles. I have no doubt I could get 360 out of a full tank pretty easily. With the right...
