Haven’t received anything yet, but GT Raptor scheduled.

Keep thinking my original build (2dr 7MT BL, tow and high) would have been Sweet. Ford apparently couldn’t build that.

I wish instead of ordering an OBX I would have ordered a Base w/ Sas, hartop, modular bumper, and aux switches.

Would have been cheaper vs my OBX and way more capable.

I’d didn’t budge on my order.
Sasquatch package, tow, hardtop, aux switches, and 2.7.
All the things that might cause restraints I left on and luckily got mine last November.

After off-roading for a bit I quickly realized the benefit of the front camera and 360 cameras. I off road a lot alone and having that extra visual helps picking your lines without having to get out and check to often.
My only regret.

Having had my Sas BD low package and done some work on it so far, the options which I feel have punched above their sticker price the most are:

Aux Switches, Sasquatch, tow package, rear locker.​

Options I thought about but didn't get:

Lux for the cameras and sound system.
I've not once thought 'I wish I had cameras' can't think of anytime where it would have been more than a cool novelty for me... and the sound system was so trash I ripped it out anyway, can't imagine BO was much better​

Squatch and rear locker are probably the most questionable if you planned to immediately modify for hardcore off-roading, but for the average occasional wheeler it'll be all you ever need at a fraction of what it'd cost from a shop.

Probably a Tesla. It's two years to the day since my reservation, and I'm still waiting. I got my VIN on 10/28/21. You can see all of the shit Ford has put me through in my signature. As of yesterday, my build still hasn't shipped.

For those of you who have actually received your Bronco…what do you wish you would have ordered but didn’t?

I’ve got a fairly loaded-up Badlands on order, but given that I’ve waited this long (8 months) was wondering if I should add anything else to my order (for example, towing package) rather than do it aftermarket.

Thanks in advance.
I got a base non-sasquatch with mod bumper and aux switches. No regrets I don't want anything else.

Should have added mod bumper to my 2 dr obx hi pktg. But ended up adding it from a forum user. only thing I missed out is adding the 4.27 Locking Rear Axle Final Drive Ratio ($795). at first was regretting the cloth seats but I ended up liking them when I got them.

Soft top. It’s awesome and much better than the Jeep TJ that I had. And of course the mod bumper and aux switches that already came standard on 2021 BL.

Whatever package would have come with adjustable headrests. The fixed position is killing my neck!

I would have ordered the modular top had it been offered. And I am beginning to think the Ford modular top is just a broken promise.

I wish I had got the tow package, but Ford wouldn't let me.

The aftermarket options, including the Ford OEM option, are all trash. It's ridiculous that I can't order and install the 7 pin harness from Ford. I thought for sure I'd be able to.

If you ever plan on towing, order with the tow package.
I just pulled by tow off of my order because I am figuring I can do this in like a year at around the same cost?

Wish I just held onto my hard top order and not switched to soft top. Did not think the hard top was going to be $6000+ after the fact.

Aux switches. I put the ford hitch on myself. You have to drop the bumper, bolts go in facing front. I haven't wired it yet, just towing bicycles.
