Took the Family 1hr. north to Sarasota Ford today to view the Bronco in person. The SouthEast Staff traveling with the Bronco were great. I'm glad I went to check it out in person. Reading all the blogs and "negative comments" put doubts in your mind on a $60K purchase without seeing it. While I was disappointed not to see Sasquatch I am satisfied with my order.
Hearing comments of cheap plastic or cheap looking steering wheels made me pay extra attention to those areas and get that tactile feedback.
1) Vehicle looks much bigger in person, even with the soft top down.
2) Plastics in the interior seem to be on par with other ford Vehicles I've experienced. The do not appear cheap.
3) I didn't like the cloth seats in the Big Bend, They appear to be not as durable as my 2016 F-150.
4) With soft top closed, you have plenty of headroom,.
5) Soft top demonstration was quite easy to perform and sold me on getting a soft top.
6) The soft top minus the rear and side panels looks great and much better that the fast back soft top, (IMO)
7) My wife LOVES the soft top and doesn't know why I want the MIC top!
8) Someone had asked about the rear tire mount... It is a hard plastic and not a metal mount and there is a rubber bushing for the tire to rest against. (pic attached)
9) I still do not like the OuterBanks grille!
10) Back seat is comfortable and easy to get in/out of
11) Leather option is better than cloth. In speaking to the girl, I expressed my concern about the "sloppy looking" leather and she stated that these seats were hand stitched and that hopefully production level leather might appear nicer (we'll see!!)
12) Free Hats, Bronco Carabiners & a BBQ Food Truck to round out the experience!!
13) Rapid Red & Velocity Blue (my order) are great in person!!
14) Rock Rails or the side step should be ordered, the area looks unfinished without it.
15) Rear Seats folded seem Ok (pic attached)
I'm trying to attach a few "different" pictures than the 10,000 that have already been upload from the Sunshine State so far!!
