Just got back from ordering my Bronco.

MY24
Badlands
2.3L
7 speed Manual
Velocity Blue
Lux
MGV/Onx
Towing package

I was considering waiting for MY25, but got nervous about Ford possibly removing the 2DR and/or manual option (which is almost certainly just dumb rumors). And I didn't want to wait 6 months. So I pulled the trigger today. If for some reason the MY25 has something great I can't pass up, I'll be sad but oh well.

There are almost changes every year. Sometimes for the good, sometimes for the bad, always for more money.

I ordered my area 51 2door 7MT Lux in November of 2019. It was built in November of 2022, and I picked it up in January of 2023. The wait was torture, but was completely worth it! I'll be interested in the wait times now...

Congratulations on your Bronco order. We're excited for you to get behind the wheel!

I'm happy I found your comment before I made a separate post, is that "severe duty steering" the upgrade from Ford? Otherwise what are the main differences from stock that you've noticed?

I ask bc I have a weird noise that happens when I'm doing a swooping turn around 30ish MPH and to the right, my dealer diagnosed it as something tranfercase and warrantied out the parts, but it's still going on so I assume it might be steering now.

I did the Ford Heavy Duty Steering upgrade. It’s the 3.0 steering rack and tie rods. I can tell absolutely no difference in the quality of the steering in day-to-day driving. If my mechanic hadn’t given my old rack back to me, I wouldn’t even be sure he switched the old for the new.

She's a beauty! I am still wondering if I did the right thing not getting the SAS, but I love the look with the regular Badlands wheels.
