Congrats, Jesse! That's a stunning Bronco!Like many, I was a day-one reservation holder. For positing it, from reservation to delivery, it took 1,092 days.-yeah I didn't stay pumped that whole time. My excitement went up like a rocket and fell like a leaf. I initially ordered a First Edition, but 99'd it while searching for a new home. Ford wasnt soley responsible for this delay.I held off and ordered the Heritage trim when it was announced. I wanted a 2 Dr Wildtrak, but when the commodity restraints threats came down from Ford, it confirmed that I should order the Heritage. When the order banks opened on 3/27, I walked into the dealer and ordered a 2DR WT in addition to my current day-one reservation. Low and behold, I got a call this past Thursday that I had a truck coming off the trailer-My initial thought was wow, I've been tracking the Heitage and didnt expect it to be delivered this week. I assumed that the tracker was behind on its info. The dealer informed me, no, it was a beautiful 2DR WT. This was through a curveball, as I expected to buy the Heritage and trade in on the WT when it arrived, assuming 2 years later. I told the dealer to give me a few days as I was working through a credit union-I would typically have this set up in advance but didn't have any idea the WT was being built.
Saturday morning, I received a call from the dealer, and he told me he was looking out his window at a beautiful 4 Dr Heritage. A decision needed to be made! After several "in-depth" conversations in the household, we decided to go with Heritage. My decision came down to the most sensible decision. The Heritage will act as the family and alternate vehicle, and the 2DR would have been the recreation vehicle. If I had gone with the WT, I would have lost the ($3,880 Transition offer) and PP ($1,500). This was not by any stretch an easy decision as I have long-awaited this Bronco and wanted to ensure that it would serve as a forever vehicle that hopefully, one day, my son can enjoy. But after some wisdom shared by the dealer and member @Lowcountry Bronco, I decided to go forward with the Heritage and place another order for the 2DR. I will likely wait to see what MY24 offers and hope the Hot Pepper Red continues. The Heritage will be great for those beach trips, the Wife, and hopefully, an overland rig my family will enjoy.
This community had been incredible; not only did I learn about the Bronco, but I learned how to buy a new car. I went through a credit union and secured a rate of 3.6%. Before this, I bought a new 2017 Tacoma, yes, over MSRP. As a member here, paying above MSRP was not an option, and I ensured the dealer would honor this. I'm very excited for the adventures ahead; I've considered a vanity plate as a tribute to Mike Levine "By Sept". If you are not following the Bronco Heritage Bronco Club, it's a great group full of knuckleheads. Looking forward to posting pictures of the Bronco in its natural habitat.
It's late in the evening but I'll add to these images soon.

Nothing too technical but wanted to share its natural habitat.
We are so glad to see you're enjoying your Bronco, William!Not even a day old and it's already dirty ... good job!
Ok ... Now they're just trolling me!
Haha, I thought the same and laughed pretty hard. FMC=1, Low Country Bronco=0
A slight incline.

Factory. If you don't have a license plate bracket I highly recommend the one I have from builtright.
Congrats on your new ride! Its a great looking Bronco, hope to see it running down 270 soon. Quick question as I have a Heritage on order, I see you have front parking sensors. Were these factory installed or a dealer installed option?
How did you get front parking sensors on the HE? I thought those were only in the High Package.
There's no outer sensors though, I'd say Ford still being Ford, congrats Jesse, you have a one of one standard HE with front parking sensors! I guess check and see if they're functional if so good, if not have dealer order you new covers if you want/care.how is it that yours has front parking sensors? Here is @bumyoon ‘s standard HE and it does not have the front ones.
I’m so glad you like your heritage. Its beautiful. I ordered the same one. Mine had too much cabin pressure buildup while on bumpy roads, so I let it go. If I would have purchased it, it would have been 3 yrs to the date of my order.Like many, I was a day-one reservation holder.

Interesting. I'm not sure how this occurred. I'll check to see if mine are functional.There's no outer sensors though, I'd say Ford still being Ford, congrats Jesse, you have a one of one standard HE with front parking sensors!
