Finally had a chance to see, feel & climb into a Bronco this morning. Castrucci Ford, Milford OH had an FE (Sasquach) and BL on 33" for the viewing event. I wish there was a MGV configuration and MIC top, but at least they had an A51 and Cactus Grey to view. Colors definitely shift as we went from overcast to partly sunny. I really like the A51 in any light condition in person, not too Blue. I didn't take a ton of pics because we have all seen them recently. I am happy with my choice of 8" screen vs. 12", 2.7L and Sasquach choices. I'm almost 6' 1", and the step into the Sasquach is noticeable over the BL 33", but go big or go home. My wife 5'7" can use a step stool if it is her choice :).

So i really won't care, but are we getting engine covers?

When i opened the hood of my old '84 z28 after i removed all the emissions crap, i really liked the look of that v8.

When i look at these engines i get anxiety about maintenance

Edit: I guess the hood is fine cover haha

Thanks for the info! How was that front passenger seat adjusted in the back seat picture? All the way back? Or comfortable for a regular person to sit in the front passenger seat?

I had always planned on going A51 but CG is really growing on me, I just don't know if I'd be happy with CG in a year or two. A51 feels like the safe option. Just thinking out loud.

I was waffling this past week between A51 and Rapid Red. Seeing the A51 on a full size vs. Sport is definitely a different perception of the A51 color. I really like it on the Full Size Bronco and am staying with it now 100%.

Did you go 8 or 12 inch screen?

Really excited to see these in Louisville on Thursday. Perfect combo for me because I ordered a cactus gray badlands and was curious about the manual trans. Been tracking this pair since they were up in Cleveland anticipating they were heading south.

I'm actually very happy with that. We will rarely, if ever, have the front passenger seat all the way back. If you can fit in that scenario, then if the seat is a few inches forward all the time, back seat knee room will be adequate. Thanks again!

I asked one of the Bronco Specialists at a dealer event and he said there will be no engine cover.
