Preproduction Frankenstein Bronco that just came off the line at Wayne

[TTown]

Preproduction Frankenstein mish-mash Badlands with Molded In Color (MIC) hard top and gloss grille.

IMO the smaller wheel arch flares (seen here) look better than what you get with the Sasquatch package. The later version IMO sticks out too far and just looks awkward. This version (w/33s) doesn't look over-done and is proportional looking.

This is Ford after all, you can have any color you want, so long as its black.

(For anyone to young to understand, Google Model T)

I'm not sure about now, but the place that sketch was about, the Billy Goat in Chicago, used to be freakin' delicious.

It might be a good color to find body imperfections and alignment issues. Some colors hide things and black is extremely unforgiving.

This. My black Jeep looks amazing (well as good as a Jeep can look) when it’s clean/detailed. When it’s dirty it looks like shit and any scratches etc are extremely noticeable.

If y’all don’t follow vinwiki this is an amazing story about a car salesman who sells someone a black truck. Hilarious.

MIC black?

I hope so. Could be just because it's an indoor pic, it doesn't appear washed out like the outdoor pics we've seen.

I will take it if it gets me first in line! Here is my ticket! lol.

It's funny because I like blacked-out jeeps, but not feeling black at all on the bronco

IMO, I like the lighter colors on the Bronco because the 'black/dark' accents are awesome on it. On the Jeep, it's pretty much fender flares and mirrors that are dark so blacking it out works (of course the Bronco isn't much different) along with a smaller looking front end. Also in regards to color, driving a black vehicle off-road in the woods/trails...you'll have a nicely pinstriped vehicle courtesy of mother nature when you get back.

Sooo,what do they do with all these "pre production" Broncos ??? And if they can build this many,why aren't they building Broncos for sale ? ? ?

Not the first Badlands I've seen with out the modular front bumper. I was under the impression the High and Lux packages automatically give you front forward sensing in the bumper, more than likely negating the modular bumper. Yes I know preproduction. But I've been noticing a trend.

The modular bumper can have sensors

The modular bumper can have sensors

Modular bumpers don't get sensors or fog lights as discussed in a previous thread where the outside of the bumpers can be removed for more clarence.

High Package
Mid Package content, plus: 12" center stack touchscreen; 360-Degree Camera; additional sound deadening materials; Forward Sensing System; and sideview mirror LED approach lamps and spotlight

Below are the 3 different bumpers out there. The outer banks and Wiltrak share the same bumper. The Badlands has had the modular and the forward sensor version on many a test mule.

Most of the pictures of the modular bumper do not show sensors but I have seen one with it ... didn't think much of it at the time though ... so not sure if I can find it again.

Not sure what it said in the other thread, but the Badlands appears to support the front parking sensors in the non-removable upper portion of the bumper.

I’m pretty sure you are right about the fog lights being an aftermarket type of thing (no oem) with the modular bumper.
