DIO (Dealer Installed Options)

[BroncoKong Jr.]

it didn’t show available on the base model, I think it has something to do with the taillights being different on the Base model but I’m not for sure. I hope there is a plug and play option

It's not an option on the Base because Ford didn't want it to be. They want people to upgrade to a Big Bend for towing.

Ford sells accessories through three different channels.

DIO accessories need to be ordered when the vehicle is, appear on the window sticker, and are installed by the dealer. Ford does credit the dealers for the labor in this case. The selection is limited at this time, and many dealers shied away from adding them after the ordering issues early on. There are 14 options for Bronco through this channel.

Production channel accessories (tow package) are installed at the factory or mod center and also need to be added when ordering vehicle / appear on the sticker. Installation cost included - also limited selection.

Dealer channel accessories include anything in the catalog, can be added anytime, and dealers do need to charge for installation. They carry the same 3yr 36,000mi warranty as factory options if added at the time of sale (2yr warranty over the counter) and can be rolled into financing. These do not appear as a line item on the window sticker. Towing option that can be added this way are below.
