Black Diamond ordered with a Modular Bumper figured in the pricing.

Now that Ford has announced that TurDuckEn thing as a standard bumper (Capable? POS) ..... will it cost extra to keep what Ford originally offered (Modular Bumper) as standard?

what did ford announce ??
From a Ford Authority article :

The Capable bumper joins the existing Standard and Heavy-Duty Modular bumpers in the 2022 Ford Bronco lineup, though availability is a bit of a mixed bag. Base, Big Bend, Outer Banks, and Wildtrak trims will get the Standard bumper as standard equipment, while the Capable bumper will be standard on Black Diamond and Badlands – replacing the existing Heavy-Duty Modular bumper, which will be an optional upgrade for all trims moving forward.

That was my inappropiate smart assery for :

Until the order guide drops, knowbody will really know and even then ... it is these types of issues that Ford will probably have to address...soon.

Between this and the dropped colors issues, it may explain why we haven't seen the order guide yet AND explain the rumor that order banks will now open in October.

In theory, the order banks were to open tomorrow (Sep 13th). The order guide is their official resource for build limitations/optioning/ etc etc.
I may be wrong, but I feel like the order guide usually drops just before the order banks open.

The SCOOP to answer some of the replies: On some trim levels such as the Black Diamond the Modular bumper was standard for MY21. For MY22 it is no longer, the Capable bumper is standard....and...we do not even know if they will allow the Modular bumper as an optional equipment for the BD (and others) in MY22. I suspect they may not as they are also saying the performance winch and mount will no longer work on the BD.
Quite frankly....it pisses me off as I want the Modular bumper and even have already purchased lights to mount on it.
I am a day 2 reservation holder....as a BD 2 door I am being shoved to MY22 BY FORD....no fault or doing of mine. WE ARE ALSO SUPPOSED TO HAVE PRICE PROTECTION for a similarly equipped vehicle. So I would argue that IF we can add the Mod bumper back on our order AND it does cost us more...this is a problem for FORD. If that happens, I will not argue with my Dealer, I will pay the increase and send a flame letter to every Ford Executive.
Under normal circumstances....sure they can change equipment. This debacle and a promise of price protection, well it is not normal circumstances. No one seems to have an answer on this and my Salesman is going to try and have me an answer before we need to re-order in October.

Hopefully the price protection actually does what it should and we should be able to "upgrade" to what we were originally promised for no extra charge. I am in the same boat.
I am thinking along the same lines you are. We should be able to add the Mod bumper back on and not pay any additional $.

Gonna be interesting how they price protect a lot of things. I guess we'll see. Having made the promise, I hope they are mindful of all of the details it entails...
