Base Model Bronco Thread

[RedDawg]

If after this latest little B&P fuk up, I still get a Bronco, I am definitely getting a base.

And my signature is appropriately updated.

Welcome to Base Camp!

B&P went from giving you the 10A for free with Sasquatch, to billing you twice for the 10A.
$1595×2=$3190. The SQ price increase.

It looks like Mike's Meatballs indescriminatly added the 10A up charge across the board.

The 10A went from free, to double billed across a bunch of models.

That adds up but twice? I suppose, none the first version so why not?

Thanks for setting me straight. I need that on occasion.

If today's adjustment holds (and if no other increases), it'll come down to Base Camp or Badlands Sport with Badlands package.

Welcome aboard, This is base, we have water from a hose . Chips and guacamole are in the BD waiting rooom.

Water from the hose is in the bb lounge base guys drink from the pond

My current BL build did not change but it never included a A10 transmission. I was basemansquatch until they moved it from late delivery to MY22. Decided to go BL 2.3 non-squatched to get it sooner (or not). I’m assuming B&P for MY22 will be set up for either tranny but I would guess they will charge the typical amount for the A10.

I like the look of a tall skinny tire, wonder how it will look on the Bronco (Base-16" Steels)

I will be honest, I was surprised it was a 255. It did not look “skinny” at all. It was beefy and looked real good on that Wrangler.

i am getting the basest-of-Bases and have a Grangetober deal, so $26K. Another $1500 for destinatoon, no sales tax in Montana, and $1,250 for these BFG MT in 255/85/16. So $28,750 total out-the-door for a brand new Ford Bronco that I will be very proud of.

I was waffling around with a base sasquatch, but I'm back on the base base train and building it how I want aftermarket. Would have been really nice if Ford could have offered the locker like on BB, there's no way in hell I'm paying an extra 5k for the B.S to get up to a BB.

Here is an Early Bronco that would make most B6G members cream their jeans. And it’s on 255/85/16’s.

B&P appears to be double charging for the auto when Squatch is added.
Previously, Squatch was $4995 + $795 for the adv auto 4x4 = $5790.
Now it's saying +$8980 when it should be: $4995 + $795 (adv auto 4x4) + $1595 (auto) = $7385.
So it's overcharging by $1595, whether the auto was already added (2.7/auto), or you add Squatch to a 2.3/manual.
In both cases it appears it's charging double for the auto.

End result is my B&P build is priced $3190 higher than before when is should be only $1595 higher.

Not exactly...I posted this a couple of times on other threads, but it's buried now:

Last night when they first changed the price on Basequatch, I logged in and checked my build. The site actually itemized everything as follows:

Original price on Sas = $4,995
+ Wheels and tires $2,390
+ Auto $1,595
= $8,980

The extra $2,390 was the for the wheels and tires - I'm not kidding. They've since removed that line item pricing from the pop-up when you select Sasquatch and just bumped the price up to $7,385 without explaining the increase.

They probably realized charging extra for them looked bad, especially since they've been advertising all along that Sas includes wheels, tires, front and rear lockers, lift, etc. so they just increased the price.

This was not a mistake as they claim, I think that's pretty obvious. As bad as they are at communication, they're not complete morons. A mistake like that would have been noticed months ago. It was a decision, and Ford will probably never tell us the details behind their reasoning, but ultimately, it's to hit a number on somebody's spreadsheet so somebody gets their bonus.

That's wild. Make those wheels/tires optional and I could probably go along with that since I'd rather throw some KO2's on the base wheels anyway. What's interesting is your total didn't include the $795 advanced transfer case that was presumably being added in invisibly before the update.

So when they package things, things need to be actually be in the package...

Anyone know what the width of the base steelies are? wanting to slap some 33s on there if possible

Levine confirmed (for what that's worth!) they are the same wheels as the Ranger, which would be 16x7.

Media Kit also says 16x7.
