I'm not the original poster but I live in Cedar City. I'm pretty new to off-roading but would love to meet up with people and hit some moderate trails.
I don't think it's a popup tent. The 2dr pictured has the same camo on it. Perhaps its the soft-top that they haven't revealed yet or as someone suggested its a power top option.
Doesn't the 10sp auto come standard in the F150? So you're only upgrading the engine and the standard engine is also a V6 in the F150. I don't think its a money grab. I think the pricing seems fair.
@Teko The manufacturer cannot set prices for dealerships. There are laws keeping them from doing so, but Ford can control allotted vehicles so they have some power to influence the dealers. Build and price will be up by September according to Mike Levine Fords communications guy.
I think I heard in an interview with the head Bronco guy they are removed by a quarter turn of a bolt. I'm assuming the bolt has some type of retention system so they don't easily release while regular driving though.
Yes you will be able to order it in December. Late availability means that they won't start making the Velocity Blue colored Broncos until later. So you may have to wait an extra 3 to 6 months. It kind of depends on when they have that color slated to start production and also where you are...
