Hey everyone. Do any of you know of any dealer demos in Colorado? I still haven't gotten the chance to see one in person. Thanks!

Awesome, thanks! Do you know if it's the 2 Door or 4 Door, or any other details?

@EVH1994 I don't know. You could try calling them.

@EVH1994 I just called them. He thought 4 door Wildtrak and said it would be 9 am to 1 pm. No test drives, viewing only.

From Larry H Miller email I received today:
The Bronco is arriving and we're ready to give you the first peek! At Larry H. Miller Ford Lakewood we're receiving our first demo units around July 15th and will be able to give a limited number of customers a chance to view this highly anticipated model. Be one of the first to check out the the all new Bronco by contacting your dedicated sales rep today!

No other details provided.

@wylieone46 Just spoke to Miller, they don't anticipate having anything for a few more weeks. First will be a 4-door OB? A few weeks later a 2-door manual WT? He was a little hazy on the models. They will be available to drive.

I did not speak to Ryan the Bronco specialist, so ...

@dbeyers I went into the the showroom at Miller this afternoon and got a total different answer from a random salesman. He said we can see a Bronco tomorrow at 10 am and at 1 pm. Can't drive it, but it will be on display. So...who knows...

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot ... let's talk to Ryan Hensen ... he is the Sales Manager and the self-professed Bronco specialist - that's who I usually talk to, but didn't this last time - I'll give him a call tomorrow as well. The may be trying to limit the number of people coming and these may not be their's, just some passing through to whet our appetites.

@LetRBuck It was built on 6/23 and delivered 7/13. It took me a little longer on delivery than others because mine came on a train. (Rail) so the route is not direct, and it is slow.

The cool thing is, once it’s on a truck or train, your dealer can check in the system of the exact city it most recently passed through. So I was able to text him every few days just to get an idea.

@andyignite thanks. That’s faster than I thought. Mine is coming on the train too. Supposed to be built this week so hopefully I will see it in August.

I took the BD out for a spin at Larry H Miller this past Tuesday. It is a VB 4 door. They told me I was the first to take it out on a test drive - it only had 43 miles on it! The highway ride on 6th Ave. was really smooth. I test drove a Wrangler on that same section of 6th Ave and it was terrible (as we all know).

Schomp For on Havana (Aurora). (formerly Mike Naughton Ford) I took their Badlands out last Friday morning. They require you call in advance to set a time aside. They have two; a 2dr White OB (I think) and 4dr Orange Badlands. One test drive per hour, per vehicle. I was given the option to take it on my own or have the salesperson tag along.

Phil Long has one now which may be ready for test drives next week. Denver location.

Has anyone run into a manual transmission demo close to Denver? Heard about one in foco but wondering if anything is a shorter drive - thanks!
dbeyers
Larry Miller has a manual on order - the have a VIN. but no estimated delivery date.

Phil Long Denver had a 2 door Cyber Orange Badlands they were getting ready. That was a number of weeks ago. I don't know if they followed through, and if they did, if it is still available. I test drove their OBX since it was already available.

Drove the 2 door manual today - nice short throw. Funny, but not surprising, you need to depress the clutch (and brake I think ... don't remember) to get the push button start to start. Has electric parking brake ... maybe others models with automatic do too? Never checked. Kinda drawn to the old school, row your own ... not super keen on the automatic trans hill control feature ... saw a review that it really works the brakes (hot!) - I tend toward the DIY within reason. I think the crawler gear would function as well or better (sans brake wear ... than the hill control with the auto).
