I understand! A week or so after getting my 2021 FE, I took it to a show a gathering at OK4WD in Stewartsville NJ. Nobody there saw a 6g Bronco before, they asked me how I liked it. I said "It is loud inside, it rides rough, it burns a lot of fuel, it handles way better than a short wheelbase...

Holy socks, I cannot believe people are still following my thread started over 3 years ago! My experience with a pre-production Bronco was exactly that, pre-production. My 2021 FE was and has been fine. The "flimsy door" ended up taking a hit from the hoof of a deer that I ran over on I-78...

I believe they are called strakes. They control airflow to reduce noise. Some Toyota tail lights have them.

Yup - poster received Aug 15, cards about 2 weeks ago. Accepted delivery of my FE Oct 2021, but I still have another reservation pending, not sure which one triggered the cards and poster. Before I accepted my FE, I'd get 2 of each Bronco promo (1 for each reservation), so my completely...

Hi. My 2021 FE 2dr had 12 miles upon delivery. I'm a former Ford dealership empl... The odometer starts when the electronics are fully activated on the assembly line. Somebody drives it off the end of the line and parks it in a holding lot. Then it gets loaded onto a carrier. It may then...

My beloved 2 door FE and I have taken some heat public. A Jeep is a Jeep... Bronco is its own animlmal. We can coexist. Example of hate - I took a small load of scrap metal to the junkyard, the attendant flamed me because " Ford shouldn't be allowed to make a Jeep wannabe".

You are not crazy... my 2021 FE has been marked 3x - white paint crayon on the grille 2x and with an Apple airtag...

If you want a paper printed owner's manual, go to helminc.com and buy one. I did. Beware though, it is a thick book and the printed manual + the printed supplement will NOT fit in the folio cover...

I agree, and if the worms attack you I'll take a bite. Before we all go buying new dipsticks and potentially overfilling our 2.7s, I'd like some official confirmation from Mother Ford. It is possible that the updated shorter dipstick could be due to some other change - i.e. different oil pan...

Hi - AFAIK it is NOT always possible to cross an Engineering part # to a Service part #. What you use to order parts from the parts dept is the Service part #. Engineering part numbers can change independently of service part #s.

Mine works 99% well. I find that if I am holding the wheel in a certain position (hands on wheel at 3 and 9) it will flash the warning message about holding the wheel. I move my hands on the wheel and it clears the warning.

Hi. Not sure how helpful this will be, but you bumped 2x and are a Bronco owner so here I am :) 30-ish years ago, I put kill switches in my 84 Bronco II and 96 Bronco (still got them). Both had a single ignition coil, so it was easy to cut the power wire to the coil, splice in extensions...

It sure sounds like a bad battery in the key fob. If the truck started when you placed the fob in the special spot in the console, then the electronics in the truck are good and the electronics in the fob are good.

I've been trying to replicate the steps to make this happen. It happens if the audio is left turned on & set for Sirius when you shut the vehicle off, then the vehicle powers down completely (i.e. stops making all the under hood noises), then start the engine and attempt to change the Sirius...

Arrived today. Mine looks exactly like the OP's except it states 2 door. 940 is count for 2 doors.
