First Edition Bronco Thread

[c2one]

I have. Received it about 30 minutes after the dealership placed the order.

Thanks. Trying to get a better understanding of why I haven’t received mine even though my order was submitted three days ago.

im leaning towards the fact that I probably have a priority code 99 And wanted to see if others are experiencing the same Before I follow up.

thanks for the feedback!

No problem.

Regarding the priority code, I read on B6G thread the other, that the code doesn't matter in this case. Someone in a dealership said that Ford will be looking at time stamps instead of the priority code. His/her explanation was that the priority code comes into play, primarily, when dealers are ordering for their stock inventory. At least, that's how I read his response.

That's how I understand that too with the exception for code 99 - which means do not order till code is changed, from what I understand.

I also had a confirmation email within 30 minutes of the dealership submitting mine. Onyx black leather interior with the mod top. Priority code 10

Has anyone placed an order for an FE with a black mod top or black leather and received a confirmation email from Ford?

I ordered mine with both on 1/25 and received confirmation within 30 minutes. However, the dealer email/order sheet said SB Top and Black seats. But the confirmation email from Ford said Navy Pier. I assume this is because Black Onyx seats didn't go live on B&P until 1/26, the day after. So maybe this was a default setting? Either way, I will be recontacting the dealer and confirming my order before the 3/19 cutoff.

I am really trying to gauge how realistic it will be for me to use these, the same way i wonder how often i will have nothing in the cargo area and take off the doors and place in the back.

If you’re getting a 2 door, then I completely understand wanting the MOD. I’d want the gunner hatch and pop outs too. Not really necessary with the 4 door. Well, at least I can’t seem to find a reason other than letting my Lab hang her head out the window on the way to get some ducks.

I actually really like how MIC turned out with Rapid. I would be totally okay with it. I don't really like the contrast between the windows and MIC, but the black roof will clash with the molded fenders, so it's a compromise either way you go.

Personally think I'm still going to wait for the mod top. Already waiting for the interior, and I want those removable windows.

Id wait for an after market MOD top, I don’t the value in the extra coin for that glossy look and removable rears

Anyone notice the interior 360 view of the FE with Black Leather shows stitching that has an orange silver/white mix?

Probably just an artifact from them using the BL leather interior CGI and changing it to show silver/white stitching in the FE. Just found it interesting.

Does anyone know if the Navy Pier interior FEs are going to be built/delivered before the Black interior FEs? My dealer doesn't know anything.

I hate the Navy Pier interior and it doesn't seem like it will match with any of the paint colors besides maybe Area 51 or Cactus Gray.

my understanding yes but that could change.

So I'm hearing they may be re-engineering the roof rack for MY22 to address center of gravity issues with MY21. It's unclear whether it will be compatible with MY21 or not and it is unclear whether the re-engineering is isolated to the roof rack itself or if there will also be modifications made to the actual roof and/or vehicle frame/attachment points. If anyone has additional details on this please share them.

If it ends up not being compatible with MY21 whatsoever, then that would really blow. If it just requires a MY22 roof and the roof will fit a MY21...then I may consider getting the free MIC top now and buying the MOD top later with a compatible roof rack. Or maybe the late availability MOD top will already be designed to accommodate the new roof rack. Obviously lots of possibilities...not enough information. Hopefully more information is available prior to the order modification deadline.

All I can say is make sure you are an educated buyer and be smart... I saved my online conversations with 2 dealerships in Northern VA from back in July 2020 and both stated they "will not be pricing over MSRP for reservation holders"... Big surprise, both are now saying that that isn't true and will be pricing $2,500-$5,000 over MSRP for the FE Bronco. I threw the record of the conversation at them and they were like bumbling fools. If you are a FE holder in NOVA and want to know who they are feel free to message me. @DealerInsider is offering a great deal for anyone looking to move their reservation. If I am going to spend $65K on a Bronco and god only knows how much on accessories, it better be with someone I like, treats me well and doesn't screw me over.

For FE perhaps, but since only FE can get LB there is no question that LB will be the rarest color Bronco. By far.

I agree and seriously considered it when ordering. I saw the color in person and went another direction (CO), but that is my personal feelings and I will drive this until the doors fall off (versus me taking them off). If I was planning on selling it at some point, I would likely go with LB because it may add some value due to the limited availability.
