More Area 51 and Race Red 4 doors please Ford.

I’m going Area 51, though I love race red. I just hope it’s going to look how I picture it in my mind.

I like these wheels too but these Badlands wheels will take a lot of rock rash damage and not look good after a while (if you take your rig off road) whereas the beadlock capabale/squatch wheels will hold up better, especially with the ring added. The beadlock/squatch wheels look way better with the ring added and I hope the ring comes in a carbonized grey.

The wheels on my Jeep have a ton of rock rash and I love the look. When I see a built jeep in a parking lot the first thing I look at is wheels to see if it’s wheeled or a mall crawler

great thanks, those look great, better than I envisioned,,,,,,,, Really makes me happy that if I can not get the black diamond in the Sasquatch, I can get some 33's and be very happy with the stock standard rear locker, 2.7 Auto and Mid package .....

Pretty good looking setup straight off the line. I think this settled a few things for me. I like the badlands with 33s high package 2.7

Wrong. You're overlooking the fact that it doesn't match Anything else on the vehicle:

• not the grill
• not the mirror caps
• not the door handles
• not the bumpers
• not the flares

It wouldn't be any less coordinated if they'd made it Chartreuse

I would think it reasonable that the aftermarket is going to try and remedy most if not all of those complaints for us pretty quick, and if not, I'm sure in most reasonably sized communities the ability to remedy some of that through a local business maybe? May not be how we want to spend some of our hard earned dollars but in the quest to make our rig truely individualised to us or our families...

Out of curiosity...does anyone that lives by the Ford plant in Detroit know if they give tours? I've always loved going to factories to see how things are made and I'd love to see the Bronco rolling down the assembly line one day!

Ah!!! Thank you!!! I was hoping this existed but naturally they’re not doing it right now due to corona virus restrictions ?

Well once this COVID thing is behind us...I have family in Michigan who are die hard Chevy fans so when we go visit them we’ll just go ourselves ?

Thanks Doug!
What do we have here? Looks like Badlands with MIC hardtop. Hold up..... does that hard top look black to you guys???

But, another black one? They must have an overstock of black paint or they have a bunch that’s about to go bad or something.
C’mon Ford. Put out some additional colors. Please!

Black is commonly used to identify problems on the production line where people or machinery dent the body. Most preproduction models will be black to identify issues with body and silver to identify issues with paint processes in preproduction.

*Preproduction* 4 door interior and underhood.

 

[BroncoKong Jr.]

Wow, talk about a frankentrim! Front and rear doors have different-colored interior panels

They are simply test builds to prove out the process, tooling, equipment, testing, etc. Most are crushed once they have served there purpose.

Well that sucks !Why not put them up for raffle or auction ? ?I'm sure they would go quickly.
