Okay, so I finally have my Bronco so I can confirm that a magnet will most certainly work perfectly (see image below). If you are interested in purchasing one of these bad boys ($12-$15 each including shipping), please fill out this form - CLICK HERE. Will only do it if we get enough folks interested. Thanks!

Only have four takers thus far. Won't really be able to move forward with anything less than 50. Please add your name if you'd like one. Thanks!

I just picked up our 2 DR 2.7 Wildtrak in Florida and road tripped it back. 1138 miles in 2 days. Here are some random observations:

1. I plan on buying stock in Safelite Auto Glass. Caught a rock and chippped the windshield at mile 48.
2. It was louder than I expected but the sound system is good. It was comparable to the Wranglers I have driven. Someone mentioned it sounds like a window is cracked open. I agree with that. I wonder how the soft top sounds?

3. Fuel range is awful but I guess it's not really meant to be a cruiser. I consistently got about 300 miles per tank.
4. fuel economy was 18.6 for the entire trip but it got noticeably better once I hit 1000 miles. I'm guessing it will continue to get better as things get broken in. It's already better than my Yukon XL
5. We saw exactly one Bronco in the wild on the way back. A 4 DR A51 Softie in Jackson MS.
6. The truck is well behaved on the road. No drama or sway. It can get a little bouncy on rough roads (talking to you Louisiana).
7. The seats are surprisingly comfortable. 2 8+ hour days on the road and no issues at all.
8. The truck is much beafier than I expected. It barely fit in my (horribly messy) garage.

All in all the experience was better than I expected. It's an incredible vehicle. Best of luck to those still in limbo.
we’re build brothers!!! WT A51… great to see!!! Thanks for sharing

Any status on your, "ticket"?
Closed per the dealer. Who basically said Ford explained that it wasn't late until it was late. I still have 2/1 estimated delivery date but am not holding my breath that it will happen.

Can you make a static cling sticker?

I dont want a magnet...i worry about dirt collecting, it falling off in a car wash, or someone nicking it off my truck.

But a static cling in a lower corner of a windshield, that picques my interest!

Hopefully you’ll get yours soon 🙏🏽
I'm a proud former FJ owner, and as much as I love my 7-speed MoarDoor Badlands, I do miss my Sun Fusion Yellow 2007 FJ! Glad to see you get to enjoy both.

Prior to it reading “load child” did it read “individual”?
I'm not sure. I didn't realize before today that I could expand the tracker description to see any of that 😅
