Bronco doesn’t need to copy everything Jeep does.
yeah I don't think a dupe/clone needs to exist but inline with how Ford is branding the 'offroad community' w/ the Broncos... something similar feels like a match

Found a Ford page for it that says Winter 2021. https://www.ford.com/support/how-tos/search/fordpass performance app/


No word of physical badge/patch or anything. So wondering if it's weird to signup and use the Jeep one just for the badges?

And TrailsOffroad seems to have a list of the trails that award badges. https://www.trailsoffroad.com/blog/the-complete-list-of-jeep-badge-of-honor-trails
Couldn't deal with Fords reservation & ordering ordeal (@HotdogThud said it perfectly) any longer and ordered a Jeep Rubicon last week. Didn't know about the badge of honor program by Jeep.
Thank you for letting me know!!

I'll still buy my Bronco when it can be had in 8 - 12 months and compare and keep the winner.

The badge program from Jeep is mature by the sound of things, I would recommend, as you mentioned, just use that program. I am guessing Jeep or the program owners won't care.

I'm not super into badges or patches per-say but I think it's a cool way to say "I've been there done that".

yeah having patches to stick to seats/roof/interior would be cool. Definitely feels like Ford needs to stepup and get a move on.
Just fired off a tweet to Jim Farley... see if he replies.

Good thing you let us know that you're "not super into badges" or people might think you were with the copious amount of postings, tweets, and whatnot. Embrace your obsession! Be proud of being a badge junkie, own that shit! No shame here.

The bronco itself is the badge of honor. It means you've been through the entire reservation, ordering, build and delivery process and have emerged unscathed. You get extra points for completing the journey in under 18 months.

Suck it Jeep, bet they can't give their owners THAT kind of experience....
So true, I literally just L oh L

How do you know a NOOB in Moab .. stickers .... especially stickers of runs "conquered". The REAL stickers are obvious, presenting as body damage, dents, scrapes, rips, holes or make shift repairs. Stickers SMH!?!?!

Winner!!!

The stickers feel sort of like an "everyone gets a trophy" situation.

Is that a Texas winter or a Minnesota winter?
Difference of about 4 months.

Interesting find. The Ford/Bronco webpage used to contain the same info saying the features would be released in summer, then fall, then 2022. But as of this morning that section has disappeared (at least I can no longer find it).
