2024 Everglades

[DrewMackin]

I had an Everglades before my Heritage. It was an awesome Bronco and I still miss it. I just had to have a manual and felt I was missing something with the auto, so it just wasn't right for me. It's the best looking Bronco available. You're going to love it!

Really looking forward to the Everglades. It will be my first "new" vehicle since 1989. My son bought a red two door BB SAS in April and loves it.

My Everglades is being built! The modules are populating on the motorcraft “as-built” module site. Still shows in production on the ford tracker but it now shows updated 01/02, which was my blend date. Nervously waiting for my tracker to show BUILT.

Hi! Currently a Big Bend owner, I ordered in January 2022 and received in July 2022. I am debating on ordering an Everglades, it's always been my dream Bronco. How quickly are ya'll's orders moving from order to build dates? Also stressing interest rates as I currently have pre Fed hike interest rate now!

 

[Skunkape24]

I am not happy about the rates either but sometimes you just have to roll with it....

My blend date was yesterday 1/4/24 so we are getting closer every day.

If you want an Everglades I wouldn’t sit on it too much. I wanted to change my BD order to EG but he advised against it. HIS reasoning is it’s a limited capacity held at 3% of production. Nobody can tell you though how many have been ordered to date. Last year they stopped in about March I think.

I found one for sale on a lot that a customer backed out of. Jumped on it and cancelled my BD order.

My blend date is 1/8…..some people were getting “in production” notices for 1/1 in December. They are full steam ahead ! !!! Or at least that’s what I pretend is happening.

Thanks for the info! I was able to place my order on Tuesday.

At the request of the Facebook Everglade group I had ten aluminum snorkle grates CNC'd. If anyone wants one here is the link. You can paint them to match your car/trim and they dont warp like the factory ones...https://www.ebay.com/itm/395083002482?hash=item5bfcc83272:g:j1gAAOSwRuxlhjPB&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA0PD%2Fei28877rc1CAR4s%2Fpd3pEL4tIviI%2FhDxcYxoVY4kIL0WWOb8%2BacfUUy4b%2F8ioSnYobNeUaWDBfSUBCCalfmkzW6bI2pnSYmJ2gFDUnp1WyUgdApu3RNdOGEe4RqeAjHgHJ%2BfvQvwuLHG9v7UBTnnfO7zqFHysiDj9ECGmWodIc06ExUvXOM%2B6TYD8aHraj%2FSiN0veGru2KLMZoDMGBxeq42JB%2BKphvmHcw1%2FZOxdQJ%2BxumM3lcW315Dj8ORrxPkeMx3E%2FWru4ZqP%2Bpxe4G4%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR_b1tLamYw

That’s a good idea. I just ordered one.

Are the screws torx or torx plus, and what size?

I have torx, but not torx plus yet.

Just ordered one. Thank you very much. I will test out some ways to turn it black without paint. A patina treatment of some sort. Thank you for sharing these out with the community! Much appreciated.

Same fasteners as provided by Ford. I only changed the grill.

Thank you,
My Everglades doesn’t get assembled for two more weeks, I was just hoping to find out which type Ford used on these so I can be sure to have it ready. (Kid in a candy store excitement building …)

I read the description on the eBay post....it says:

Ford Bronco Everglades Intake Grate: Custom designed and laser cut out of 5052 H32 0.187" Aluminum (for good corrosion resistance). Grate can fit in either orientation on front or back of snorkel. This was made as we had the original plastic grate warping within a year of delivery. No finish just raw aluminum you can paint any color or clear coat as desired. Existing fasteners from your current plastic grate are reused. This listing is for the aluminum grate only nothing else included. Shipping within 2 weeks of order placed date as these are being custom made as 1 offs.
