First Edition Bronco Thread

[BroncoHooves]

Never got this email. Should I be worried?

It's not an email, that's the Ford webpage.

Think Safari Bar is the one in front of the grill, not on the roof...

Well! Then it may be an option we don't get...

It came from the configurator images I grabbed before they pulled it. It was on another Ford page as well; trying to find where it is/if they removed it. They've been back peddling like crazy.

I here you. We won't know for sure until we get the build configurator. Both are good looking grilles.

The grille in your previous post is my first/second favorite choice. That and the other one I talked about earlier look the most old school to me.

The blue interior of death would look pretty cool with the Antimatter blue.

OH WAIT, THAT ISNT A F**K**G OPTION EITHER


RAAAHH RAHHH LOUD NOISES

This image came from when the configurator was hacked and people were randomly changing variables that spit out combinations that are not currently available.

I already said that. I was one of them pulling images from the configurator and figuring out variables. In fact most of the configurator was actually correct. You couldn't add a manual transmission to the FE.

Never had or driven a car with modes, so pardon my ignorance.

Sport Mode = Baja mode, but 2WD
Baja Mode = Sport mode, but 4WD (and you can manually turn off 4WD and into 2WD for roads, so essentially Sport Mode)

Makes you wonder why WildTrak has both Baja and Sport Modes when/if you can manually toggle 4WD/2WD in either.

I got from reading the description that it sounds like a lot of the “nannies” are removed in Baja mode. Seems like there’s a lot less traction control getting involved. Maybe I misunderstood it...would make it more responsive but could get squirrely in the snow lol

dealer response when I asked about ADM and X plan pricing on my reserved FE:

"Congrats on getting the order in on time to reserve the First Edition – we’ve had a lot of calls this morning from customers asking how they can reserve one now that they show sold out. Ford has not disclosed yet whether there will be X Plan pricing available on the Bronco, but due to the unprecedented demand and the extremely limited production of the First Edition we would not be able to honor an X Plan price on this model even if they had it. We are planning on marking up the First Edition over MSRP, as it will be one of only 3500 made and each dealer will be lucky to get 1 or 2 in total. "

Well...I think you can transfer dealers

Dealers will be lucky to get 1-2 with a 3500 cap and a website that was crazier than Royals Rumble!

I’m not sure I understand that response?

I don’t get this either. This is odd. So for my GT350R I paid about 4% over MSRP (when all dealers around me were 50% over MSRP). I knew this before I placed the order.

However, GT350R and GT350’s were both very special (i.e. the flat plane crank motor) and at the time dealers couldn’t keep them on the lot.

I guess what I’m saying is the First Edition, even though it’s a limited run is still just a Bronco Badlands with a trim package and some upgrades (all of which you can add to a Badlands). For instance you can’t add a Voodoo FPC motor to a regular Mustang GT.

So these dealers who think they can charge more are probably gonna wind up with some FE on their lot. On top of that you’ll have a bunch of VERY unhappy reservation holders. Plus, Ford has already said Bronco will be x-plan eligible.

Good luck dealers selling FE’s on the lot with the Navy Pier...hehe

If local dealers or Ford won't offer X Plan on the FE, my reservation is getting moved to Granger. My 18 year old son is always up for a road trip.

Jez, that really blows. I dunno if you guys know about Canada. But I was in the same boat.

I live in Toronto, Ontario. I had to buy my GT350R from Regina, Saskatchewan to get my 4% above MSRP lol. Every dealer in Ontario was 40-50% above MSRP. That's approximately 3500kms away (or ~2200mi)!! I didn't do a road trip though as I wasn't about ready to put 2200 miles on a brand new GT350, I got the thing transported in a specialized car transport truck.

I'm fine with a road trip to save money and also enjoy the one on one time with my son. As far as a break in period or putting miles on a brand new car I have one thought in mind " Drive it like you stole it " Lol
