I am hoping there will be Everglade and Raptor parts we can buy and slap on. Specifically the rear frame brace from the Raptor and the snorkel from the Everglades.

Anyone notice the rear roll bars in our trucks have threaded hole for what I'm assuming is the spot where the rear brace goes?

Starts at $54,495. I have a Badlands on order but I definitely like the Everglades. I couldn't care less for an electronic sway bar disconnect on the Badlands (a manual one where you just pull a pin is fine, like many have on their Jeeps), and would much rather prefer to trade for a winch. Thus why some like me, might prefer a Everglades.

Don't like that snorkel though and I have a feeling it might add even more noise on the highway. I plan on doing every single mod that exists to dampen or make my Bronco more quiet. If anything, I wouldn't mind un-snorkeling the Everglades, and leave the parts off until I plan on a trip that requires high water crossings.

Looks like those bolt holes are about right. Not sure, but it looks like at least two more bolts into the top “C-bar”.

there is a thread in the Raptor area of the forum on parts, that are becoming available. It’s hit and miss so far with what’s been published, but I’m guessing this cross member Is going to be pricey.

Interesting, thanks for the heads up about the forum specifically. I’ll have a look.

There are several old threads on them, I believe for a short period of time there were two holes, then went to one. Don't think anyone found the actual reason behind them.

I got a little FOMO for not switching my 4d BD for an Everglades, but I really wanted it with the v6 so. I'll just mod mine nbd

Kinda strange that ford put this out on the 2.3l with the winch when we know now the 2.3l is the only engine that easily allows tucking that winch underneath without bothering the camera and other stuff...... very strange ford didnt delay this a bit and design a new bumper for this model that puts that winch down and in a bit to take advantage of that space....

I could see a stealthier winch as a much bigger selling point but this is really looking lazy as far as that goes. The fact we are in year 3 it seems and ford doesnt give a shit at all about the winch situation is weird.

The snorkel is cool and the wheels are cool. But thats it.
There's no front cam on the everglades, 2.3l alternator is higher than the 2.7l(water fording) and with the low winch mount, it would be submerged alot......no everglades for me lol.

I’ve got a reservation for an Everglades that starts with 107, with a priority code 10. But I guess what matters more is if I had a YouTube channel.
:rolleyes:
Yes, I’m getting impatient.

Same question for me. I have yet to see anyone post on forum that has had an Everglade delivered unless I am missing a post

None that I've seen and I search regularly. The first guy to get a build date that we heard from was in May, then he got pushed to the end of July, so I don't think they have built any customer units yet.

Is it too late to switch to an Everglades?
