"Fleet" Option

[chtucker]

In this thread https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/thre...-ratios-trims-colors-tops-packages-more.1606/

A "fleet" option is listed.... Any idea what it is???? A lot of time with the fleet codes, options can be mixed that are normally done on regular build...Just curious..

Sure would be nice to have work AND personal Bronco

i have been wondering for a while who exactly would be buying fleet broncos.

I really could see my organization using them.... We maintain mountain top radio sites. Usually we aren't bringing anything big, but it is usually expensive. Our test equipment alone is $70k for one device. The F150 crew cab short bed, 2.7L with topper is about $40k fitted out. All of our trucks have winches. All the trucks get Duratracs or similar on day 1.

We have been buying F150s through F350s. Explorers sit too low. I manage the group and have a 2015 Expedition and I am constantly dragging the front air dam. The new Expeditions don't have low range. The new Tahoes are almost $40k. All of the Fords have the rear locker option. Ideally the trucks could tire chains on all four tires.

We never considered Jeeps because of their reliability... and Fords are easier for us to get on fleet bid.

A 2.3L 4dr Auto base Bronco would be perfect...Sure, the 2.7L would be more fun.... but it isn't a personal vehicle

The Ouray Colorado ranger district has some Jeep Rubicons and Power Wagons.. The San Juan County Colorado Sheriff had FJ Cruisers for awhile..

i think the base 4-door comes standard with an auto specifically for fleets so you might be in luck in that regard

Fleets may mean rentals.

As an aside the American Red Cross had a lot of H3s, and I know of a couple of private companies in Alaska that did as well.

There will be companies somewhere that want these as work vehicles.

I'd love for my agency to try a few out. Tow rating is the only reservation I have at the moment.

I was supposed to be doing this in Alaska last week, but COVID screwed that one. https://www.diyjeeptours.com/

Maybe places like this will spring up around the Bronco.

Pretty much covered all the points I was going to make for the light vehicles for linemen or fiber optic guys working the rural areas.
Seems like all of MJ Electrics trucks were outfitted exactly how you described.

Kinda doubt companies would spend that money for their fleets. Most likely means rental cars, or a limited edition Fleetwood Mac trim.

TVA powerline inspectors, fire/mountain rescue. Wild land fire fighting. Postal service with right hand conversion

The RCMP in Canada could be buyers but I don't know if police vehicles are considered fleet or not.

They use the Fusion, Explorer, and F150. They use the Suburban and F150 in rural areas (and some Silverados) as their 4x4. I could see a Bronco fitting. Trunk space may not be enough though.
