Bronco Event at Pat Milliken Ford 03/18 - Rapid Red Outer Banks 4-Door

[Hans]

Spot checking payload. Sticker says 1135. The goat mode dial doesn’t show 4A. I’m assuming it’s 2.7 or else it’s payload would be much higher....Without 4A it’s GVWR is knocked down from 6100 to 6060. At 1135 payload, the weight is 4925 lbs, between min max 2.7 OBX curb of 4732-5179....interesting. Seems heavy since it’s non sas and a soft top. Oh! It has steel bumpers/bash plates/brush guard, that’s why. Good. Still hoping a 2.7 lux OBX sas hardtop non steel is a tick under 5100 lbs to achieve a payload exceeding 1000 with a 6100 GVWR

4925 curb
- 100 for bumper/bash/brush
+ 180 for Sasquatch
+ 75 for hardtop?
= 5,080 (feels right given max 5179 curb still allows for front steel parts weighing 100 lbs)

GVWR for 4A on OBX goes from 6060 to 6100

viola, 1020 (1000+) payload on an OBX 2.7 sas lux

The low tow rating comes from the soft suspension . Even the Stock non Sasquatch bronco has great suspension , all the raptor type suspension have low tow weights .

Are the running boards factory installed or dealer add ons?

Are the running boards factory installed or dealer add ons?

depending on model, running boards and rock rails are included or can be added to your order. Many ordered items are added or installed at the factory. Some are left in the vehicle for installation during the dealer prep before sale. Exterior antennas, wheel trim/covers, front license plate bracket are installed at the dealer to limit damage or "loss" during shipping. Because of size I would expect the running boards to be installed at the factory but they could be left for dealer installation. Read recently soft top would be boxed and in the vehicle for hard/soft top orders.
