So i've been going around with my (very small, I'm 1/2 allocation) dealer. I had a 7/15 reservation and converted my order back in Feb. Never received confirmation and finally figured out that my dealer missed connecting my reservation w/ my order. To remedy, they created another order...
Nah, i get what you're saying now. I suspect the new lines has to do with engineering, view out the mirror, etc. Similar to how the F-series has that same 'drop' or step for the mirror.
I thought you were referring to the seemingly poor fitment on the Early Bronco
That's actually how the lower quarter attaches from the factory, they simply added seam sealer and smoothed it out a bit. some folks like to use body filler now and smooth it out to match the front door. If it were a modern vehicle, it'd match. I suspect this is to keep it 'true' to the...
96-01 Explorer V8's are where it's at now. Everything mostly fits in and you can get OBDII.
There are 6-figure EB builders out there (Icon, velocity, CFB, etc), and Broncohut is no slouch. If you paid them to build it all, you can probably run up a 6-figure bill pretty quick.
When you get...
Similar story for me:
My dealer placed my order and it never showed up on my ford.com acct as converted (they forgot to add the reservation # in wbdo).
When I asked, they claimed to have fixed it and my reservation showed as converted (but plain black base image).
I get a call a week later...
I wanted to thank everyone for this thread.. as I wasn't seeing my reservation converted to an order on ford.com either. I received an email confirmation, but nothing on ford.com. It's been about 2wks and I decided to reach out to my dealer.
Same story as others.. dealer missed where to...
Good. Mine says #19.. unsure if that was good or bad...or any impact. I can't imagine they have the algorithm already in place to tell me how far i'm delayed. I supect i'm already behind anything else that isn't a Base :)
Just placed my order for a 2dr Base, squatch, 2.7L. My dealer's confirmation says Model year 2021 (but who knows if that really means anything, since I have 3/6 delays).
Any idea what the Priority Code means on the confirmation?
Yep. I'm actually restoring the same bronco...and the lack of good reproductions for that interior is what is keeping me from taking it back to stock. someone put some $$ and time into tracking down that interior, even though the arm rests are supposed to be orange :)
So most everyone here already hit the high points. If you're itching for an EB and have the space/skills/and bankroll, $5500 is a good starting point for a frame and a title. It really depends on what you want? If you want a nice shiny restomod, figure another $15-17k for a new body...
So my build has been a rapid red 'squatch (this might be race red), and not to beat on a thoroughly dead horse.. but this top looks awful...worse than any pic i've seen yet. Does anyone have background on where this pic came from? It looks like it's been fading outdoors for 20+ years
Yep, when it's offered I usually pick it up. It's nicely integrated on my F150 w/ a controller, tow mode control, trans cooler, etc. It doesn't look like the new bronco is going to offer a brake controller or tow mode on any of the models, so it's probably little difference if the factory...
If it's anything like the past couple decades of models, you'll be able to purchase the receiver hitch and the 4-pin controller will plug into the rear taillight harness somehow. I've added it to a few 3rd gen Explorers, Sport Trac, and finally a 4th gen explorer. the last explorer was the...
I just spoke with another dealer and he confirmed the same.. that the PIN goes in at the time of order. still not 100% sure if that is when it is officially 'redeemed', but hoping so. We'll see if the order window ever opens :)
Yep. this is my initial thought.
Yep, im going to talk w/ original dealer first.. they've helped me wiggle a bit in the past to get rebates, etc on top of z-plan, but wouldn't go as far as inputting fake dates, etc. I do recall being worried about delivery dates when I ordered in the...
Ok, here's my dilemma.. I've got a day 3 (7/15) reservation at a very small dealer. They were originally told they'd get 2 bronco allocations, one being a loaner and then mine. I have a history with this dealer and selected them so they wouldn't play games refusing my z-plan (provided it...
