Congratulations, I love the SAS broncos!!! That thing is cool, plus it’s now a retired color so even better.

Another hard top delivered. When I go in to get mine I am going to kick my sales guy in the shin for basically forcing me to go with a softie because of hard top constraints!! I’ll still love mine though

My bronco says it’s been constructively placed since 8/25 and there’s no eta available. My delivery date has also been pushed back. Has anyone else had their bronco constructively placed for this long??

@PapaSmurf - mine shows delivered now. Should get it this weekend!

Amazon.com: Black HD Bumper with Hoop compatible with 21-22 Ford Bronco, Off-road Full Width Front Bumper with D-ring Mounts : Automotive

Does anyone know someone whom bought this Modular bumper? There are no amazon review and I was curious about the build quality. Maybe another thread speaking on the quality?

Do y’all talk to a real person when tracking on Norfolk Southern or just do the automated line?

My rail car is unloaded as of 4 this afternoon. Now just need to wait for it to get picked up. Hopefully by the time I get back on Sunday. Still need to get the dealer to give me a trade in offer so it will probably not be any sooner than the middle of next week before I can pick it up IF it gets deliverEd by then.

I’m in MA but but my railcar was unloaded yesterday morning really early and dealer called today and it’s already there! Good luck!! I’m stressing about the trade offer right now though hoping it goes smoothly

Do you have a carmax nearby that you can get a second offer from? I‘ve gotten an online appraisal from carmax and will take it to them to get a final offer next week that I can take to the dealership to see if they can come close. I’ve never sold a car to carmax so I’m not sure what to expect but I’m sure the offer will come down. In NJ we get credit on our sales tax for the trade-in value so I need to factor that it also. I’m hoping it’s a wash and can just trade my old truck in otherwise wrapping up the final sale will probably get delayed by a day or two.

Anything new on your end @Ajay007001 ?

I think the closest carmax is about an hour away , I did an online quote and it’s about the same as KBB which is what my dealer said they use. I’m happy with that amount, not looking for anything crazy but in MA we also get sales tax credit if we trade so I agree that’s a big factor for just being able to trade easily and be done without having to go the extra step. It makes me a little nervous because I know they don’t really care if we buy the broncos since if we don’t they can mark them up and sell them anyway. But I’m hopeful that that isn’t an issue.

Sounds like a no brainer to go through the dealer in your case. How it goes off without a hitch.

I’m getting the carmax quote as a backup and a little leverage. I was hoping to get a quote from the dealer before I went on vacation but the salesman didn‘t see in too much of a hurry until it was delivered. Sent him an email yesterday letting him know that I had an offer they I was considering and asked to set something up early next week to look at my truck. Waiting to hear back.

Glad I got mine in time to pick up my daughter from her first day of school. Even in the tropical storm!
