Hi all. Question for you guys (and gals!) on the Soft Top. When I pick up my softie, should I be looking for holes/hardware in the frame for the hard top? I have heard that soft tops should come prepped for the hard top, but unfortunately some are arriving at dealers with "no holes drilled". I'm planning to buy a hardtop whenever they are available, so it's important to me that my vehicle is "hard top compliant", if that makes sense. Thanks!

Softies built after 9/1 (so not us) come with the "hardtop prep kit" but I was only aware that the option added electrical and plumbing for the rear window.

I can't believe they wouldn't have mounting holes pre-drilled and/or use the same holes that the soft top does.

But I could believe anything with the way Ford is operating.

Pics or it didn't happen... Amirite?

Hey All, I took delivery of my Basesquatch 2.7, soft top, yesterday!!! Shazam!! She’s a beaut!! This came 7days prior to the estimated delivery date on the email. I am in Maine and it came by truck. They tried to charge me $7k over msrp. We settled on $2k over with all of my accessories installed for free…even the items that I did not buy from Ford. It probably only amounts to $1k but I agreed in support of my local dealer. 🤷‍♀️

2k over?! thats too much imo.. But then again i dont know what accessories you added. so it could even out.

I get the idea that my dealer doesn't want me to actually buy the bronco... he already hinted the he could make more off of it if he puts it on the lot. Im hoping he doesnt try to screw me around.

If you haven't, you should get that pricing conversation ironed out asap.
