I see a lot of people saying they don't like -insert- model because of the fender flares. The flares are easily swapped out and it's kind of a weird thing to base your trim level on in my opinion.

I am going to go through every single model with the options i want and see which one is the best bang for the buck when B&P comes outI think that when B &P comes out we should be able to see the subtle differences in the interiors. This might make the OBX “nicer” than a similarly priced BB.
I would recommend making your list of must have, nice to have, and would love to have at a certain price features and then play with B & P and find which Bronco is right for you.
Good luck.
I agree - by far probably one of the easiest things to change on the vehicle.I see a lot of people saying they don't like -insert- model because of the fender flares. The flares are easily swapped out and it's kind of a weird thing to base your trim level on in my opinion.
wait till Summer, then I’m sure Jeep will be throwing out ridiculous discounts because the Broncos will be hitting the roads. I’m not saying to get a Jeep, just commenting on what they do in response. They already throwing in 3 yrs of maintenance I hear.I agree completely with the above poster. Ford also needs to rethink their pricing for upgrades. The Bronco is beginning to cost more than the 2021 Jeep, they seemed to have lowered prices because of the bronco.
Not too familiar with beaches outside of South FL. Where are there beaches in FL you can drive on?I‘ll drive it on the roads and beach here in FL, and since there are no rocks or even hills, I don’t need the rugged rock climbing features.
I own a 2000 Wrangler and was within weeks of purchasing a new Rubicon 4-door when Ford opened reservations. I have a Badlands 4-door reserved now. At no point since I changed my original plans has the Bronco been less expensive. The expected MSRP of the Bronco based on what I’ve found here is going to be around $52k-$55k optioned how I want it. The Rubicons I’ve looked at have similar MSRPs, but can be purchased at $45k - $48k. Where Ford has created some savings is offering upgraded off-road options on lower trims. (I.e. Base + Sasquatch). I hate how Jeep locks so much into their Rubicon trim.I agree completely with the above poster. Ford also needs to rethink their pricing for upgrades.

OBX and Base are my least favorites.First, I love, love, love the open air design of this truck. I‘ll drive it on the roads and beach here in FL, and since there are no rocks or even hills, I don’t need the rugged rock climbing features. But the more I compare the models the less convinced I am that the OBX is going to be my choice. Being the ‘luxury’ choice I thought I’d be getting a lot more creature comforts or upgrades to justify the cost. But the 12” screen is not even standard! The hardtop is not standard. The leather is not standard! Not sure I even like the larger rims/skinnier tires. Heated side views in FL won’t ever be used. Painted side views and fender flares - who cares? I’m starting to get the feeling that the OBX is either a sucker’s bet or the soccer mom trim and I hate that. So please change my mind.... have I overlooked something that makes the OBX stand out in its own right? Otherwise, I’m probably better off dropping down a trim or two or three and then adding the options I really want. I’d appreciate any constructive thoughts or suggestions!!
Perhaps someone will chime in on the panhandle, but here in North Florida, you can drive on the beach. In St. Johns county (42 miles of coastline - 16 miles permit driving), the driving is restricted to the dry sugar sand near the dunes. 4WD is mandatory and even so, I have a large photo gallery of others who had a bad day at the beach digging. Flagler county does not allow driving on the beach. In Duval county, you can drive on at Huguenot Park - but pay attention to tides as they come in fast catching drivers unaware inundating vehicles. Fernandina Beach allows beach driving, but I've never been.Not too familiar with beaches outside of South FL. Where are there beaches in FL you can drive on?
