Congratulations! If you’re in the Dallas area, there is a meet up Sunday at the new Ford Garage bar & grill in Plano. Hope to see you there.

Congrats 👍

Details….. Were you a reservation holder? Was this day 600+ of a wait? Did you buy off the lot? Did you pay ADM markup? I’d this your first 4wd?

So I reserved one in the first couple of days after it was announced. I originally wanted this optioned Bronco with the modeled in color top. I pushed off my order several times waiting on that. It wasn't happening. So in late Feb(my birthday actually), I let the dealer order it with a hard top. Wait what? Pics are of a soft top. Yes I didn't notice when they put the order in that it said soft. The dealer is supposed to fix the problem when the hard top is available to order. I usually don't put much faith in a dealer telling me something, so we shall see. They promised me 200k FP points and a bottle of bourbon. ... ... ...

I have had a awd Mountaineer, and several 4wd 250 diesels. Paid sticker - $250 private cash. I have never ever ever ever had to pay sticker for a vehicle. So this hurts my feelings a little. I will never pay over sticker.

I have several vehicles at home to drive so waiting on the Bronco wasn't killing me. I look like a Ford dealer sometimes. I have slimmed my Ford's down to 6 right now. I have a couple more cars as well. I really wish I had the hard top.

I am really enjoying the Bronco. It has a lot of cool stuff. So usually when buying a car, you can see them on the lot, check out all the options and see how the stuff works. Much easier to make an informed purchase on what options for the money. This was kinda a crap shoot. So I got a lot of cool stuff on the interior. As the future rolls around, the cool tech will keep the Bronco fresh with features. Normally in the past, I usually trade cars every couple of years. But lately I have kept some for a long time for what I am used too. Such as a 200k mile 14 taurus and 13 diesel with 180k.

Android Auto is weird on my phone in the Bronco. Works sometimes, others not. So I don't where the issue might lie. Not sure how to wash the soft top. Carwash, hand wash? The side doesn't really seal up at the top. And the fact that the rear part of the soft top doesn't easily open is very awkward. And I got the 4 cylinder in hopes of good gas mileage. It's terrible. If I knew it was gonna be crap I would have got the v6. I love the Zone lighting. Another feature I didn't know it had till I got it in person. The mirrors are goods. I very much dislike when Ford put's the little corner as a detail feature. The Bronco doesn't have that. I'm happy.

Thanks. I appreciate that. lol

Wife got to pic the color. I would have chose something else. But this one has more blue in it than I originally thought. So it's growing on me.

Your Bronco looks totally sweet in that blue. Good luck to you!
