You can tell that Esteban-Jennings is the brand manager. He is solely focused on working on his own brand. Brand managers don't work in a garage with machining tools. But he sure as hell wanted the background for this video to be something that he's not.

Poser.

Same. When the video first started I thought, oh I hope that teenager asks him to show us his hands... I only made it 8 mins and change into the video before I had to turn that propaganda off, so he may have asked him?

Interesting he said 2 door Broncos will be a high demand item.... I have a feeling that won’t be the case compared to 4 door

It might be now on the FE after E. P-J just said the 4-door FE can't tow.

Sweet Jesus...this is a total shit-show. I definitely do not regret dropping my reservation and opting to wait until '22 or '23.

I couldn’t get it to work on mine either. Can only get it to work on my cell phone

Same, I just watched it on my phone

Believe the 4 door has the slide out section in the back! Table tray thing! Only for the 4 door never offered on the two door. That fishing concept had one I believe!

I wasn't ever getting one in the first place so maybe someone else be able to help answer!

Tail gate slides out and the swing of for shelf were both late release. The tailgate is only 4 door.

I’d like to see the rear swinging door drop down table in B&P... not worth holding out on a late availability option but can’t imagine it would cause a delay.

This was another revelation I had at beer 2. Who needs door condoms when you have carpet?!

I don’t think that is it. He said the system can’t dynamically add the weight. So I take it that system simply can’t add the weights of your individual build. So it all doable, Ford is just not providing you the means.

The system can dynamically add dollars, so it can add weight at the same time. Ford doesn’t want them to program it in as someone might forgo a high dollar sas package if the B&P said, “sorry you are over your weight limit.” Ford says instead, “sorry no headliner.”

...and I thought the doors came with storage bags on the 4-door? ...or was that just roof panels?

Roof panel bags are an up charge.

The straps do that (with the bags). Just not buying the reasoning for cloth-backed rear seats. The 2DR doesn’t even allow for storage, yet the same design was applied.

One of the ford systems I use at my job only updates once per year, so I had to wait 9 months to get a report for vehicles being shipped to me from a new factory. The build and price issues aren’t shocking.

Just use the manual on the vehicles touchscreen to determine what fuse needs to be replaced if your touchscreen isn't working.

Guess that’s why they are allowing the digital version to be downloaded... definitely going to download it to MacBook as well as my iPhone for later retrieval.

I think the reason it's not in B&P is bc I think they are trying to work out the issues! That was one on the things I heard from the Stig! Been a while back though. I don't know what kinda of progress been made on it!
