Sorry, yes I did take delivery. It's a Black Diamond with 2.3 Auto. Exceeding my expectations. And I wanted to add that Town & Country Ford in Bessemer Alabama were total pros. No markup over MSRP. No games.
Got my built email. Black Diamond 2.4 auto. Noticed the Rotation # from my window stick was on the front bumper. Already has shipped via Rail to Alabama.
(FWIW: It's a bone stock + Automatic. I removed tow hitch, MIC top and roof rails at my Dealer's recommendation months ago to avoid...
There are people who are wealthy enough that you're not taking advantage of them. Broncos are not expensive cars as cars go. They are, however, for the moment exclusive. So instead of dropping $140K for a Mercedes G550 SUV, paying you an extra $20K lets them turn heads in an exclusive ride...
I received a build email for week of 11/15. Ford's VIN tracker had stopped working for a while. But I clicked it a few days ago and now it's working again. Only this time, it is autopopulating the Customer Order Number with a different number.
The number is now 5168.
I'm wondering what...
Reservation date: 07/30/2020
Order Date: 02/08/2021
Model: Bronco Auto 2.3L
Trim Type: Black Diamond
2 or 4 door: 4D
Roof type: Soft (switched from MIC)
Any other relevant details : Carbonized Grey. Black Steelies.
I was grateful to learn last week I'd squeaked in with some the last 2021 Model Year builds. (Nov. 15 build date on a July 30, 2020 reservation - Black Diamand 2.3L auto.). I wrote my dealer to ask about Ford's Bronco "customer satisfaction funds" hoping it might help pay for the MIC Hardtop...
Hey everybody it's music time. I wound up in today's loot crate drop. My original dealer (Town & Country ofAlabama) told me if I pulled off towing hitch, hard top and switched to automatic I'd likely get pulled forward. (I think they had 400+ reservations and I was somewhere in the...
No, doesn't void warranty. it's made and approved by Ford. If Bronco tune yields equivalent to their Ford Ranger option, it would nudge HP from 270 to 315HP and 380 lb-ft torque. (almost equivalent to the 2.7L specs but half the price/)
Here's the official specs from Ford on the Ranger...
Noticed the most recent catalog update shows Ford Performance now has Bronco tune SKU. (Part #: M-9603-B27) Since the Ranger Ecoboost SKU is M-9603-REB" (Presumably short for "Ranger Eco Boost") Maybe I'm reading too much into the SKU choice but at face value it makes me wonder if "M-9603-B27"...
While we're talking about FORD Naming opportunities... (Since someone mentioned Stallion)
I wrote Ford's CMO last year to say "Ford Mustang Mach-E" is a cool product with a terrible name. (It evokes the marketing middle management meddling that was so perfectly depicted in the film FORD vs...
@Mattwings just a word of encouragement. it would be disappointing to hear that Ford punished your friend.
Your report of the driving experience of the 2.3L is what is keeping me from cancelling my reservation. I’ve got a few kids and have to do four door if I do it. I originally wanted 2.7...
My reservation was placed on July 31 with a reputedly large dealership. The rep told me over the weekend he would call me Monday (the 18th) to confirm my specs and put the order in.
I didn't get called
I wrote on Monday to ask if it was still happening
Heard nothing back and wrote again...
