Build & Price Update from Ford – Q&A with Bronco Brand Manager

[tlubull]

These top leaking rumors are getting annoying. It was a screen grab of a conversation with some random person and we all acting like it is confirmed. I think we all need to take a shot of something heavy and CALM DOWN!

I'm all for that. I just saw the rumor. Never saw a thread or anything. Is it then just speculation of angry andys?

I think we all need a dram of single malt and to let out a collective "Humph" before bed tonight.

Slow down Sparky, if we can order in January then you update the BP in March? Hello WTH

I want to say near the beginning. It was after they talked about the "WBDO". I was taking notes, it is just after that.

All I could find was nebulous penalties for not converting orders of reservation holders, which we knew about

 

[Bronkoooo]

Ford needs to suck it up and admit they overreached trying to sell a “concept” as a final product. Just keep plugging away at development and give us the real deal in ‘22.
As a FE reserve-er I would love to see as many FE’s order the modular painted tops...theoretically that would push all production to “late” and we would get what was pitched to us instead of inferior offerings to just get it out there.

Where there's smoke, there is usually fire

That seems very reasonable on a $65k FE. For “legal” reasons Ford can’t put the tow package on for you - but good news, you can end around and DYI! Perfectly safe - we just can’t say it (psst it’s for legal reasons)!

All I can say is, Ford is very sensitive to gvwr so we have to work around it

What happens when a sh!t show meets a cluster f@ck at a goat rope? Levine knows. So i will probably go forward with the wifes sas obx 4dr black painted top, but will most likely wait for my22-23 to order my 2dr BL. Fix the damn orange trim already.

B&P must be some horribly written code or they’re lying. It should never take that long to update something like this. It’s a web app not an OS.

Thats because the Ford weenies don't think their customers are smart enough to see through their mountain of bull crap.

How about...

Why is non power leather seats on 2 door same cost as 4 door power seats?
Or
WTF is up with the top of the dash. Smooth or texture and crazy OBX colors?

I don't know if y'all remember, but back when Coke changed their formula and introduced "New Coke" it was widely hailed as the biggest self-inflicted wound in corporate history. Pepsi gave all employees the next day off & declared victory.

This gotta be a close second. I'm sure this video will be on a loop in several Jeep break rooms. Ford just looks retarded...its not even fair to keep criticizing them.

You know, I actually liked new Coke..

I'm likely just expecting the worst. But the 27 minute mark, it wasn't terribly clear. And I realize the overland concept had the hard panels instead of windows in his example. But he summarized that the 2-dr hard top won't have removable windows. Which we know that none of the MIC tops accommodate such functionality, but this whole botched roll-out is expecting the worst and my mind is thinking that perhaps the 2-dr mod top won't have removable windows. Perhaps they are too large compared to the 4-dr? Perhaps, I'm just snake-bitten from Ford's rollout?

Fair enough. I too am reading between the lines. Going to drive us crazy until we know these things for sure

I think this guy was burned enough from the first q & a that he won't be as cryptic this time around

Tasted like Pepsi ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The accessories don't come on your Bronco from the factory. They are ordered by the dealer and installed by the dealer.

Yes, they can be ordered from the factory...

DIO (Dealer Installed Options) Program Allows Bronco Accessories To Be Included In Purchase Price and Installed by Dealer

Also said if you do a slide out tailgate you will take away your on vehicle door storage.

What slide out tailgate, never seen it as an option anywhere in the B&P , only seen it in the sport.
