build week 10/24

[JimmyG]

Thanks Dobbs! (Hope I can call you that lol). I know you've been quiet and so have I, because we've been enjoying the Bronco.

I really wish the rest of this build group would get their Broncos STAT! I think I've had mine 5 weeks now and I still don't even have 1000 miles on it. Yeah, I know.... It's winter here in the arctic north.

Knock on wood - I've had ZERO issues. I had a front sensor warning once, but it had some ice build up on it. The only issue I've had is the weather sucks in Michigan and I won't be able to get the top and doors off until March/April.

Feel the same just over the border in Ohio, can't wait for spring!

Oh yeah brother we are about 40-50 min apart. Weather sucks and now we are getting 50mph winds today - sweet! not! I still have my liftpro top removal assist in the box and probably won't touch it until spring.

Yeah, this wind has been ridiculous the last few days. I haven't bought a top removal unit yet, I'll check out the lift liftpro though.

Haha yeah, life gets in the way sometimes, and I can’t seem to stop driving my Bronco long enough to do any mods . I’m like you, really pulling for the people in our build week to finally get theirs, I was very blessed to have mine built and shipped so quickly.

They had a special running that brought it down under $800 and I had to do it. Seems expensive, but my 5ft 1in wife will be thankful she doesn't have to help lift the rear top pod off with me. I'm grateful too, disaster awaited! LOL

@Jjt24 Here's a LINK to the top removal tool - a bit of a discount.

I took advantage of some warmer weather a couple weeks ago!

Love it! I see you opted to leave the rear pod on. Any reason for that?

That was around 3 o’clock in the afternoon and I was by myself so I didn’t want to risk damaging it.

Oh good call! I've been there before too. I'm a bit worried about the doors actually. A friend of mine dropped one of their doors (after not using the tool provided) as they were putting it back on. $800 later he's got a new door.

Got the call. On the way!

Took delivery today. Brandon Ford did me right, original price no ADM, and gave me a great trade value on my Raptor. Now the fun begins.
