I see now. The trails seem pretty difficult. People on Facebook are saying not for stock vehicles. Assuming a Sasquatch bronco is an exception to that?
dcg2
dcg2
Yeah when they say stock they mean non-Rubicon Jeep or below.

I got scared off a run earlier this year because they said no stock vehicles.

I saw the guy that organized it a couple weeks later and he asked why I didn't go. I said because you basically told me not to.

He looked at me like I had two heads... "You have 35s, diff lockers... you're not stock"

Better late, then never. My Bronco was delivered to Washington Ford this afternoon. Hoping to take delivery tomorrow. Still dirty from riding the truck down the Turnpike.

Wow, only 6.8 miles? Mine had 40 because they had it at Dirt Mountain, a hard top replacement, and then another quality thing to address berries heading to the rail yard.

I wasn't really upset about that though...

I am definitely not disappointed. Especially with the color. The whole time I was signing paperwork, I heard people commenting on how "cool" the color is. To my eye, it often has a coppery look to it. The ride is nice, too. First tank is looking like it will be over 17.5 mpg. Not bad for 2.7 with Sasquatch. Oh, and I spend a lot less time on the forums now, too.

Here is a pic with the sun in the wrong spot. Need to go back at a different time of day.

Hot Pepper Red. The camera makes it more red than my eye does, for some reason. In person, it tends to appear more bronze-ish

Finally…after 18 months, Dirt Mountain, Airbag Recall, and whatever else this thing went through, I picked up from Cochran Ford in Natrona yesterday. Can’t say enough about the group at Cochran! Ken, Ryan and team have been on top of it all along and always responsive. Got a great deal, and they stuck by their original pricing. I know a couple others here ordered from them as well and you won’t be disappointed!

Congrats! So are you selling it or keeping it? I thought you were on the fence a while back.

@Rubisquatch Haha, I deleted my rant this morning from when I was "OUT". Still a bit on the fence. I've ordered a 2nd Bronco(Badlands), and will wait a couple scheduling sessions to see if it gets scheduled in the next couple months. If it does, I'll likely sell the FE. But after just 1 day, it will be hard to part with it! But I need to pay for a golf simulator that is currently being installed and that FE would go a long way towards that.

@MikeyB Great to hear! Haven't really noticed the wipers, though I'm used to Auto and miss that feature. My dealership was Cochran Ford of Natrona. Cochran has it right on their website that they will not sell for over MSRP. And they've given B6G members under MSRP.

I have a 2nd ordered at Shults at MSRP that I likely won’t keep now that I decided to keep my FE. No build date yet so can change anything on the order(white wildtrak with Lux package) but happy to keep if anyone you know is looking. Made the res in December so it will be a while.

Hey gang. Sorry I have not been on here in a while. Work has been hectic, going through my VA claim status now along with Bronco buying like crazy. ha ha.

I am from around mon valley if anyone wants to get together for a bite. I am off every other weekend starting this weekend (0ff).

My BIL and his son just sold their Broncos to make some fast "over MSRP + taxes + upgrades" cash and I'd LOVE to not be the only Bronco in a see of Jeeps!

Bronco finally came in!! I ordered my Bronco back in Sept 2021 from C Harper Ford in Belle Vernon, PA and received it Dec 23, 2021 way ahead of schedule for it was suppose to be delivered between Dec 27 and Jan 7. I was extremely happy for how smooth it was to go through the motions with them and completing the paperwork. I was promised MSRP and that is what I got (Including taxes and tags).

Merry Bronco Christmas

Not crazy though....Talked to a dealer in Ohio that had just paid 30k over MSRP for a 2 door FE and $5-10k for others because their owner wants Broncos on the lot as they're building a test track and going all out. They obviously are happy to buy my FE if I ever get it in.

@PittShawn These are not worth 100k. It's just a supply/demand bubble now. The problem here is that every dealer is going to start to follow and make it an obtainable vehicle for only the elite which was not the intention from Ford. Unfortunately, Ford created this problem for themselves, so I'm curious to see how they respond, if they even do that lol.

@Lothbrok 100% agree no car is worth over MSRP which is too much already. We blame Ford, but it is every car maker. I've seen 3-4 neighbors recently have to pay over sticker for their cars, and a couple have orders that won't be filled until end of 2022. I bought an M4 in August for $1500 under MSRP to drive for a couple months before my Bronco comes in knowing that I'll get every penny back out of it. So, yes it's supply/demand right now and for the foreseeable future, and combine that with "First Edition" for those with the means and no understanding that it's nothing special and you get this situation.

Finally - 514 days in, got scheduled for the week of 2/7/22. With so many scheduled and even delivered already, it's not big news. Except to me ...

If anyone wants to take a newb out wheeling somewhere let me know. I’d love to do a group ride. I want to see what this thing can do but don’t really know where to start and I don’t love the idea of going out myself.

@Rubisquatch no built email for me yet. Actually no communication at all from Ford since the emails went out about them replacing the MIC tops. My patience is running thin for sure. Glad you got the built email. Only a 7 hour truck ride to Stephen's.

@Borswayze my patience was running thin too and I tweeted Mike Levine with my vin and my length on DM and he replied said he’d look into it and 6 days later I had the built email. Others have said he’s replied to them too. Not sure if that is what got me moved but was good to have him reply to me directly and say he would work on getting it released.

@Rubisquatch Thanks....I tweeted him too last week, but no reply. Just heard this AM that another buddy of mine got his built email this morning for a December build. Happy for him as at least I'll be able to test drive :)

If anyone wants one the Lund Aeroskin Hood protectors let me know. I'll let it go cheap and we'll figure out how to meet to deliver it.

Ordered the wrong one by mistake. This one is the glossy one, I need the matte one.

Still got the plastic from the factory on it, have the wipes and such that came with it.

I saw 2 last week. Wednesday I saw an AMB non Sas OBX across the street from South Hills Village in a doctor office parking lot and then Friday I saw an AMB non Sas BB driving Eastward on 22/30 near Blairsville. Both were 4 door and soft top.

Got scheduled for week of 8/30... See if it holds

Also I ordered 10 5"x5" die cut stickers of the "no VIN gang" logos cause I want one for myself

If anyone wants one DM me your email and when they come in we can work out payment and shipping. $4 each should cover it.

Just FYI, it appears that people are showing updates in Ford Tracking even without receiving emails. I had a 8/9 week production, and when I just checked it shows it's currently in production. I haven't received any emails or window sticker(gives a message to check back soon). So, if you are lucky enough to have a VIN and build date projection, worth checking Ford site periodically. Or if you're like me, every few hours!

Mine was built on 7/21, same thing. You only get a Ford email when you get scheduled with your Vin and then another (sometimes as not everyone is getting this one) when it’s ‘built’ - and built means it’s cleared QC and shipping is likely in progress. There are no emails when you move ‘into production’, the only thing that happens is the tracker changes like what you reference above. And you usually move into production about 7-8 days before your blend date.

If the order tracker says “In Production”, but your window sticker isn’t available yet, try the Bronco6G order tracker. Mine showed up there, while the Ford one was still pending.

Hey All, Shults Ford in Wexford has 3 Broncos on the lot. Sorry, didn't take pics as we've seen everything at this point and in person is a MUST. They had 2 "Courtesy" Broncos that they must be using as transports. 1 WildTrack(Area 51) and one Anti-Matter Blue(honestly didn't really look that close or remember trim but it did have sasquatch). They also had 1 Bronco that was a "cancelled order" that the owner is selling to his friend. It was an outerbanks area 51, non-squatch. Sorry not more details, it was a quick stop before the Pirates game.

Interesting note...on the cancelled car, it had just arrived and on the back window written in chalk it said "Good Top" and "Chip". So, makes me think the chips are an issue along with the tops, but who knows.

The top itself has what you're reading, ie the seems are not molded over and you can see the inner layers, and the surface itself seems very thin where you would see the honeycomb in a short amount of time.

EDIT..sorry I realized I did take one pic. This is my son, 5 foot, next to the Anti-Matter Base Squatch(I believe).

The Carbonized Gray is OuterBanks, Sasquatched. It is the Finance guys order. He'll be taking title and then "selling" back to the dealer. They expect it to take a few weeks. I spoke to them on Monday.

And for what it's worth, I've now seen area 51, Gray, and anti-matter blue. If I had anything other than a FE, I'd be getting the gray in a heartbeat! But to each his own.

Corwin ford in Mannington WV has a 4dr big bend sasquatch. I need to follow up with Monroeville to see if their demo has been delivered.

Woltz and wind said that they have a demo(wildtrak per autotrader)but its on permanent loaner and never at the dealership. According to them, i can’t schedule a test drive and it isn’t even parked on the lot on Sundays. I call bullshit, but not buying from them anyway.

Monroeville is scheduled to get two in a couple weeks, and i plan on driving both.

All just want to let you know that I've talked to several shops in the area about wrapping my Bronco.

A few have been very helpful and seem very knowledgeable, however one stands out on both projected experience and knowledge as well as proposed price:

https://www.octane-customs.com/

I will be getting my Carbonized Gray Badlands wrapped by Jesse @ octane in Avery Colorshift Satin Urban Jungle and then have it ceramic coated.

If you're considering the same I encourage you to give him a call or shoot him an email.

Apparently he also carries aftermarket wheels as well.

I heard that Woltz & wind Ford in Carnegie got a Bronco last week. Apparently for sales training but they were allowing people to come look at it between 10-12. I think it was Wednesday. Good chance it still might be there but I have no idea.
