  1. 2024 Trailer Tow Kit (New Ford Accessory Part)

    I've done one, putting the hitch and wiring on is no big deal. You do have to remove the bumper, Just have some one there to hold it when you remove the last bolts so it doesn't fall and pull out the wiring. The module on the inside isn't a big deal, I broke the plastic cover on the first tie...
  2. UAW goes on strike @ MAP Bronco / Ranger factory [ADMIN WARNING: NO INSULTS, NO POLITICS]

    Released means its done and passed on to shipping, I can't say if yours is or isn't, I know many of my Broncos seem to have time between the production line and released, I assume for stripes and trim, but I'm not certain.
  3. UAW goes on strike @ MAP Bronco / Ranger factory [ADMIN WARNING: NO INSULTS, NO POLITICS]

    Ford just had an update meeting. News for customers is that units that are built and gate released will continue to ship. Also the vehicles on wheels (hold units) will continue to get worked on and released, so some good news for those that have built Broncos.
  4. UAW goes on strike @ MAP Bronco / Ranger factory [ADMIN WARNING: NO INSULTS, NO POLITICS]

    I'll be interested to see how the "stand up strike" pans out. It could be a great strategy or could end up dividing the members. For example, If this drags on a while will it make those at Wayne angry that they're living on $500 a week when the guys down the road are still making full pay? In...
  5. UAW goes on strike @ MAP Bronco / Ranger factory [ADMIN WARNING: NO INSULTS, NO POLITICS]

    Usually during a strike they won't cross the picket line to go into the plant, but rail yards and open plants should still be shipping.
  6. UAW goes on strike @ MAP Bronco / Ranger factory [ADMIN WARNING: NO INSULTS, NO POLITICS]

    I don't think it works that way, if the company locks them out, I think the workers then get unemployment benefits so it costs the UAW nothing. One I'm wondering about is if they selectively strike to shut down plants without paying all, could that be a legal issue. For example if they strike...
  7. So what's the deal with MSRP?

    Also another factor is MSRP itself, my early 23 had an MSRP that was about $5,000 less than the MSRP of one built today (same year, same options), $3k over an early build is still cheaper than MSRP of one made now! For those wandering, this is how Ford's stopping the over MSRP, they're raising...
  8. UAW authorized Strike. Huge Demands!

    Everyone is talking about production, and yes that will be a pain, issue is that's not the big deal. Big deal is parts. Parts shipments won't happen to the dealers so broken vehicles won't get fixed due to parts not arriving. Imagine your Bronco breaks, even if the part to fix it is...
  9. 2024 Bronco Build and Price Now Live

    Still holding hope waiting for the order guide, but based on the build and price, still no painted top options so I'm disappointed, maybe job 2, or 25, or 26. Looks like a 24 Wildtrak is slightly cheaper than a 23 if you want leather and the bumper options on the 23. But thats against a...
  10. 2024 Bronco Dealer Allocations Are In

    September 14th is contract expiration, past years only 1 of the 3 would be targeted and go on strike (Sep 15 2019 was GM strike for 40 days). This year the UAW has said they'll be targeting all three at once, but time will tell.
  11. 2024 Bronco Dealer Allocations Are In

    We got 1 extra 24 due to loosing 1 23 to another dealer, so not much affect for us, in the broadcast they had one dealer ask what would happen if they had as many 24 debit allocations (due to getting extra 23's) as they had allocations, and they were told that would be rare, only a few dealers...
  12. 2024 Bronco Dealer Allocations Are In

    Just got our 2024 Bronco Allocation numbers, ours looks to be about the same as 23 so that's good news. I had concerns we might loose production with the new Ranger coming on line at the plant. Hopefully dealers will end up with more since all Fords estimates account for planned some % of...
  13. I (you) wish the Bronco came with…?

    No, he's talking phone as a key, Ford only puts it in EV's for some stupid reason.
  14. I (you) wish the Bronco came with…?

    Phone as a key like Mach E has. Cooled seats Choice of interior colors, at least give each trim 2 interior options so I don't have to have blue trim on my Red Bronco. Raptor digital dash on other models, I'm just not in love with the cluster in my Wildtrak. That's it for now, but next thing...
  15. 2023 Wildtrak vs Badlands

    For those trying to do the price/logic thing, need to factor resale as well. Can't predict the future, but the past is a good indicator. 2021 Badlands 4 door, $54,525 (NADA retail), Add V6 $1675, Sasquatch $1950 total $58150 Wildtrak Retail $59,850, so there's that in the Wildtraks favor. I...
  16. Dead battery

    Actually, I'd say its the other way, I'd leave a 1985 vehicle sit with no issue, all the new ones are battery draining machines. Intelligent access, Fordpass, and all the computers are hard on batteries. Ford doesn't even cover the battery under warranty until its sold, on the dealers lot they...
  17. Ford delivers another customer run…Ford loves DEALER ADMs!

    All depends how the dealer ordered it, if it was a retail order, it should qualify for price protection (if sold to same name ordered under), if they just tagged a name against an existing order internally, it wouldn't qualify.
  18. Ford delivers another customer run…Ford loves DEALER ADMs!

    This is the future for specialty vehicles. Up until now we could retail order Raptors, Shelbys etc and get price protection to lock in against increases. Starting with 2024 Ranger Raptor all specialty vehicles will be ordered as stock units only meaning no price protection. I don't know the...
  19. FYI Toplift Pros 2 door Lift Delay till May

    1st time I used it so not super quick, but you get the idea. If I had a spot a hoist would be better, but I dont.
  20. Current constraints / unavailable options for 2023 Bronco -- Wildtrak, Outer Banks, cloth seats & more... (as of 3/24/23)

    I believe its because of line complexity issues, Bronco and Ranger share an assembly line. I expect the new Ranger will start this fall and Ford will be reducing choices to make production simpler to help with startup issues, once the new Ranger is going smoothly, look for more features to get...
