Base Model Bronco Thread

[Ddtcm81]

I reach these numbers by adding destination fee, 3% tax, tax title and tags. The Sasquatch requires the 2.7 and the auto trans. If you check the f150- to upgraded the trans and from the 3.3 to the 2.7 is around 2k. This is also assuming the Sasquatch package will be around 5k; making the combined required options to get that package around $7000.

I Stand corrected, to change the f150 for 3.3 6 speed to 2.7 10 speed is 1k

Did I read correctly on the Ford site,, you can order the 17” rims and 35” tires as an option on the Base without the Sasquatch pkg?

Looks like I'll be switching dealers soon

You shouldn’t have to pay a non refundable deposit until you convert your reservation to an actual order with the dealership in December.

There should be no nonrefundable deposit if the dealer is insisting on one I’d find another dealer.

When you change your reservation to an order with a dealership, Ford basically sales the vehicle to that dealership. At that point you can’t change the dealership your Bronco will be delivered to, and the dealership can’t stop it from coming to them if you decide to back out last minute. The non refundable deposit is to help them sale the Bronco you spec’d out if you decide not to take it.

it is a
Getrag transmission.

Getrag has badly hurt their reputation in the past years with their Chinese built units, that’s why I’m concerned this may be another Chinese Getrag.

Understood, I just wouldn't place an order with a dealer that had a non-refundable deposit on something they know thay can move. They wont have an issue selling a FY MY, this isnt acustom work van. I remember ordering my Raptor and gave them 1k but it was refundable. As the sales guy said at the time, if you dont take it, it wont last a week on the lot.

So I am rarely someone who likes black colored wheels; at least I usually prefer some form of grey.. but how good looking is the idea of the simple black grill on the base when specd out with the Sasquatch Package and those black wheels?
I have been on the big bend fence, and if I go autoBaseSquatchV6, I don’t think I’ll regret it one bit.
Otherwise it’s a toss up with a StickBend.

Black wheels on 35 is a great look, especially on the Bronco.

I read this and went to check since that wasn’t an option originally (unless I missed it) but it does show now that it is an option

I’m pretty sure this is similar to how it shows the M210 as optional, being that it is bundled with the Sasquatch but individually is not an option.

That makes sense.

Sasquatch doesn't require the 2.7 just the 10 speed auto IIRC. Anything can change right now, but for those who don't want to add Sasquatch and plan on doing it after, remember to check all that you are getting... Gears, Lockers, stronger Front End, Lift, larger Tires, etc. Maybe you can do if for cheaper, but I would think only if you did all the labor... of course that is not knowing if Sasquatch is going to be 5k or 15k add-on!

Sounds like they're trying to rip you. My dealer said only the first $100 was needed, even after the build/ordering process.

Although I would assume there will be a real deposit required at time of order.

My dealer made it sound like that wasn’t the case. Just the original $100 was needed.
