Base Model Bronco Thread

[atonge40]

I wasnt sure about the 4.7s.....I saw one of the spreadsheets that was created on this site and it had it as an option, but It sounds like it isnt. Thanks for letting me know.

You are right 4.46 gears arent a bad way to go.....

Thanks for all of the insight!!!!!!!

I'm hoping an Eaton E-Locker set up will be easy with the Aux Panel. Ford offers a rear e-locker on all Rangers trims, even RWD. It's disappointing the Bronco Base won't get a (non-Squatch) rear locker option. Same goes with the tow package. I'd spend the $495 for a factory tow package.

Remote start can be added either by the dealership or aftermarket, right? That's really the only feature from higher trims/packages that I really want. But I'm not about to drop $5K to go up to BB then another grand or two for mid package. I live in TX, so the heated seats are meh, but I'd love a way to get that AC cranking before I get in.

With my 2019 ranger and the factory installed remote start I can get on the ford app in my phone and start the car from anywhere. I've started it from miles away...I can also open and unlock the doors. check fuel, oil usage etc. It would be worth it imo to get the factory remote start from ford just to have this feature.

Maybe dealer installed option?

2-door, base, 2.3, manual, Sasquatch = tons of fun and cheap enough that I'll keep the F150 Screw ecoboost.

I thought I read on one of the threads on here the Sasquatch will not be offered with the 7 speed manual. I could be wrong but I swear I saw it.

Went with the base 2D model with Sasquatch pkg, shadow black, 2.7,auto. Bumpers, grill, wheels will all change with upgrades as they come available. Gotta customize it some...

I’m well aware. I’m also switching from a fusion. 17 2.0

Its the 2.7 with Sask Pkg cannot be ordered with Manual. 2.3 can be ordered with Sask Pkg with Manual.

Unless it's been changed, Sasquatch is automatic only.

How many people are going to upgrade the front bumper with the ford hd modular or go aftermarket instead?

also will you add the overhead aux switches?

Probably gonna leave the bumper alone, but I do plan on getting the switches, unless they're just outrageously expensive. Probably won't use them for much; a light somewhere and maybe wire a subwoofer to a switch just for fun

You do not need the factory remote start to do that. Every Bronco will be able to be remotely started from your phone is you download the FordPass app. It is standard on all Rangers right now.

Getting the switches for sure. Unsure about the bumper. It will depend on the cost.

what would be outrageously expensive for you? $500+ $1000+, i have no clue as to how much these aux switches should go for

I've got a 4 door Big Bend reserved. I'm thinking of switching to the 2 door base so I can browse the Ford goodies. Especially if a 2in factory lift is available with it.

I'm hoping they're $350ish. I put $500 as a placeholder in my unofficial pricing spreadsheet. If they come in at $1K or more I'm out. If $750+ it'll probably depend on the price of other upgrades (2.7L/auto) and my mood on the day I order.

350 - 500 sounds pretty reasonable. But I could definitely see ford charging $750+ knowing that a lot of people will want to upgrade their base Broncos with a few extra features.
