2021 Bronco Packaging Guide

You will still have navigation to wherever you are going but won't get traffic updates and lanes closures, etc. The only way you seem not to get any navigation is by not installing the FordPass app and connecting to your vehicle

Edit: I was incorrect and the answer is located on Pg. 10 of the guide. To maintain any type of navigation you have to have a subscription for Connected Nav.
Built-in Navigation will still allow you to have turn by turn nav just without the traffic updates and construction changes after the 3 years.

That's kind of the way I read it, just wanted others to confirm it haha. Lack of sleep from having a newborn around again is making me go crazy lol.

Looks like I have 1 more option to add to my build.

Yeah, the way I read it is that both use GPS for location and the Network for live traffic, etc.
The difference is that the built-in Nav has storage for maps that will still be available after the sub runs out. The connect Nav does not have the storage, but relies on the network to load the maps, so once the sub runs out, there is no longer a way to load the maps, so that functionality goes away.

Is advanced auto 4WD available on Big Bend without squatch?

Does Black Diamond sit higher then BB and OBX with beefed up suspension like Badlands?

THanks in advanced for the help with 2 unrelated questions

Am I the only one, but are we possibly looking at Ford's new motto............?

1. I have the same question, but best I can tell no, you need to Squatch

2. No BD has same suspension as Base, BB, OBX and 32" tires, albeit a little wider, like BB and OBX.

Honestly my experience of the pandemic the work from home, is often people are freaking AWOL from their job. Can't get a hold of them when they're supposed to be "working". Used to be if they were busy and a response was delayed you got an answer next business day, now sometimes it takes a week for people to get back to you.

I can see how that is frustrating. Ultimately I think there is a spectrum of good employees and lazy employees, and there is a spectrum of those who work well in an office setting and those who work well at home. It’s not one size fits all.

My company will be going to a 3/2/2 (where each team rotates which 3 weekdays they are in office each quarter) work week after covid and that seems to be the right balance between in-person meetings/social team work and commute-saving personal time to get things done at home.
Again this is what works for us not everyone. Obviously if you work in a plant you can’t wfh.

I also do recognize that work from home capability is highly dependent on your home situation. Kids out of school, large families, small spaces, roommates etc all play a role.

additionally I think it would be much harder without a company messaging tool like Slack. Seeing whose online and having private and group conversations like when you’re in the office. Maybe that could help your situation?

Wildtrak has 33" LT285/R17 Mud terrain as option?
I went back to B&P nothing mentioned as an option...
But this could be a good news to BL, 35" tire will fit w/o lift kit since BL & WT almost have the same suspension height. Just my opinion.

Doesn't look like it. On the B&P page if you click on the advanced 4wd it requires the Squatch package. And, that bumps you up 7300 bucks.

This is new / not on Build & Price.

Yep. I was just getting ready to post that. I just checked B&P.

Ford still showing off that awesome wintergreen-ish "Cactus Gray" that doesn't actually exist.

I'm with you that there should be marketing folks fired over this and other significant, recurring blunders. I'm a forgiving person but at some point, you have to say enough is enough and let people go.

On another note, I didn't known until I read this packaging guide that the MIC top color is referred to as Carbonized Gray. I didn't make it to KOH but I've seen posts noting that the MIC tops are getting darker in color. Was there a MIC top at KOH with a Carbonized Gray body that looked like the colors were a match on the body and MIC top?

There weren't any carbonized gray broncos there. Area 51, silver, both reds, and black on the badlands display unit. Plus the cyber color way above the ground on a rotating pedestal.

Ford should have published a draft version of this directly to B6G if they didn't want to hire a competent marketing department.

There wouldn't be so many errors if they didn't make it so complicated. No reason why there needs to be so many differences between the models. They will probably ship models with features that we were told were unavailable. This launch is ripe for final production errors.

Exactly!

I'd also add the world has fully embraced the "Participation Trophy" outcome and meritocracy is all but dead.

 

[Longshot]

I just want them to come out and say what is going on with the "bring your own device" bar!

Also, mildly irritated they updated the Build & Price Cactus Gray to be more gray and left it on this new sheet as the greenish blue. I thought they were trying to clear things up for customers, not make them worse.

Agree! Haven't seen any info on the BYOD bar... ! I am assuming it is late availability, but at least some info on it?!
