  1. Familytruckster?

    $200-$400 for a tune up? Good Gwad, that’s probably what a tank of gas costs on that monster!
  2. Bronco Build week 4/29

    Curious how many of us on QA hold have hardtops? I'm dual top. Not saying that's the cause, but if it truly is a QA hold and not a shipping issue whereby they place it on QA to keep dealers from constantly calling them for updates, then I can really only think of one thing that could cause a...
  3. Stuck In Production

    The dealer can see mine via the diagnostics being "live" and it shows 1.8 miles on it. He said that tells him it's not parked somewhere offsite waiting on a part. I don't think your 5 miles suggests that is the case too. Think you're in line with the rest of us for the QC process to conclude...
  4. Stuck In Production

    Yeah this part sucks. I guess it’s better to know the car is being inspected thoroughly before releasing, but also makes you question what condition the vehicle is in when it comes off the assembly line in general that would warrant a months-long QC process after the fact. I mean, it takes a day...
  5. Bronco Build week 4/29

    It’s not shipping that’s holding it up, it’s the QC process. Spoke to ford marketing and my dealership. Still in “produced to be released”. It’s alive, has 1.8 miles on it. It’s Quality Control checks, and sounds like early June is likely early target from past experiences of the dealership. Did...
  6. Bronco Build week 4/29

    I'm going to June 1. If no movement by then and still this empty space of "who knows when", then I might go Plan B and walk away from mine. If I do, I'll have lots of goodies still in their boxes to sell (or return if possible). I narrowed this purchase down to two cars. One I've had to order...
  7. Bronco Build week 4/29

    No change, still “in production 5/3” for me…
  8. Bronco Build week 4/29

    Congrats! I'm beyond ready to get mine now. Still sitting on 5/3 "in production" mode despite Chat saying shipping window of this week (expiring today). Still hoping to see it my Memorial Day, that's my goal line.
  9. Warranty cost for a dealer?

    Thanks all! This is a cash buy, no financing incentives for the dealer to earn. I am literally bringing them the check in full when it arrives. I'm ok with paying the MSRP even though the prices are starting to move downward under it now in my area, roughly around $2k-$3k is what I am seeing...
  10. Warranty cost for a dealer?

    I’m curious, for a dealership to issue the extended warranty on a new car sale, what’s the typical cost incurred by the dealer to do so? Or perhaps an easier way of asking, what’s the typical profit margin for a dealer to sell the extended warranty? I curious because I’m at MSRP and haven’t...
  11. KO3 vs KO2 Tires Comparison Look and Technical Analysis

    I’m going KO3 on my OBX non-sas, 285/65/18. Order for them should be happening today at the dealership while we wait for the car to arrive sometime over the next week or two. Not cheap by any means, but want those raised white letters badly! The KO3’s look to be a little better in water...
  12. Bronco Build week 4/29

    I think we’re all just waiting for our rides to our respective dealerships at this point, probably sitting out in those parking lots around the factory and our notices are messed up because the car didn’t get scanned from one step to the next inside the factory. Probably gets scanned when loaded...
  13. Bronco Build week 4/29

    No date update on the tracker either to reflect the email. Still on 5/3 date…
  14. Bronco Build week 4/29

    Yup, me too, yet dealership confirmed it was actually built 5/3, and ford chat confirmed again today of 5/5-5/11 shipping schedule. So, we shall see. I am curious of those who got the email of your shipping method? Are you “rail” or “convoy”? I am “convoy”, and told by the dealership that once...
  15. Bronco Build week 4/29

    My Ford Pass app now works! Won’t let me activate until I take delivery, but it sees the car now!
  16. About to purchase…. Opinions

    Where I live, we have the North American VW Audi HQ office. Tons of VW corporate cars roaming in my neighborhood that get sold later to the public. I have many friends in VW that use the program, and would have no issue with buying one of their cars. They’re not “gifts”, they have to take care...
  17. Bronco Build week 4/29

    Yep I agree, at this point I think those with goofy tracker activity can probably assume it’s built unless known for sure it’s not. I went to my dealership this morning to place the order for my tires so they’re there when the car comes. Talked to the inventory manager and he pulled it up. On...
  18. About to purchase…. Opinions

    I think you’ve found your Bronco amigo! Go buy it and have fun. Life’s too short sometimes! I bought mine with the intention of daily driving it for a couple of years and then buying a second car to use for the daily commute, likely a used sedan for when I want some boring silence. As long as it...
  19. About to purchase…. Opinions

    Then I think the only concern would be the first 1,000 miles. I would ask that they include the extended warranty coverage for that price. May not come down, but maybe get more for the price instead.
  20. About to purchase…. Opinions

    Is it a 2023? To give some comparison for you, I ordered a 2024 OBX with everything on it minus Sasquatch. Dual tops, rear locker 4.27, lux, 2.7, storage bags, modular bumper with brush guard, tow package, etc… OTD $63k. Add another $2k for BFG KO’s and $1.5k for the stack of boxes in my garage...
