First Edition Bronco Thread

Just realized summer ends in September so late summer availability could mean September for the parts, throw in production and delivery times on top of that!!

I'm definitely straddling the fence on FE. 2020 obviously became a bad year to try to launch a new vehicle and I can understand changes, delays, etc. The lack of clear communication is my biggest beef as it creates the emotional roller coaster we've all endured.

I'm also really bummed about the apparent weight issues causing no roof rails or tow package on the 4 door. Sure, I could aftermarket these but am I creating a dangerous vehicle? That same timeline announcement also says they will figure this out for MY22. As much as I'd like to have it this year I'm tempted to let all the kinks get worked out.

I hear ya! I think the weight issues finally pushed me over the edge. I've got a family of 5, so we were going to be tight from the beginning. But now that I can't even haul all of our camping gear around and keep within the published limits kind of irks me.

I think I'm either going to flip the FE or trade it in on an order for an F-150 Tremor.

I’m thinking the same just to sell!!!

So, I've read this thread off n on and just read the last two pages.

Has this been addressed about adding the black seats and dual black tops. Will this push it to a late delivery 2021 or so late it will be a 2022??? Seems how can you have a first edition with a model year of 2022. But 2022 wouldn't hurt my feelings because of resale value.

Look i'm not happy about all this delay either but I'm waiting to get what i want. It would be nice to know clarification about the rock rails too. I don't see them listed on the order guide as standard for the FE.

WITH washout interior.

Minus power seats or rear cupholders.

I don't care too much about power seats though.

Minus all the black painted exterior trim and badges as well. And headliner.

Theres not a ton you miss out on, but there's definitely a few things. Though most can be rectified w/ aftermarket.

Lightning Blue, for some reason it is enough to keep me in the FE game.

It seems like you can still tow. you just are down a bit on towing capacity and need the accessory and not factory installed hitch.

With all the dealer allocation concerns, I’m glad I reserved a FE. At least we are pretty much guaranteed to get ours this year...even with late availability. (Mod Roof, Onyx leather) ???

Ditto, black onyx is a game changer. Well worth the wait IMO. What's your exterior preference, now that onyx is going to look great with all five colors.

? Exterior color has been an ongoing daily struggle..lol
Thinking either A51, LB, CO or RR.... I go through all of the colors at least once a day ?. But I agree the onyx will look good with all five colors. What are you thinking?

I was all in on Cactus Gray. That's until I saw the Lightning Blue FE roll off the assembly line. Now I'm split down the middle.

Any guesses on delivery date with mod top and black interior?

 

[LadyBronco]

my faux drawn black mod top with FE graphic....just so I can see what it would look like. ?. Yep! Worth waiting for ???

Wow the struggle is real if you’re trying to decide between four different colors ?. I’m lucky because the moment I saw the reveal video of the cyber orange two-door bronco I knew that was the perfect vehicle for me! And I really don’t mind having to wait for the onyx interior and shadow black modular top. The way I see it the FE’s onyx interior must be different from the badlands, otherwise why will we have to wait for it? Guess it must be nicer ?
