Q&A and Pics From Bronco Super Celebration West – Day 2 (by irv0735)

[Tdifonzo]

I'm taking this to mean above 45 mph OFF-ROAD that F150/Ranger Raptor > Bronco > Wrangler.

I think that's expected until the Bronco Raptor comes out.

The Bronco (even the Bronco Raptor) won't be able to compete with the longer wheelbases of the F150 and Ranger.

The last 3 days have been productive on the info front ?

Brand Manager info:

• Velocity Blue said to be available at the same time as all of the other colors

YEAH!!!! I hope that means choosing it at order time wont delay delivery. But regardless, this is great information. Thanks!

Maybe someone else attending will see this and be able to ask. If not, there is a formal Q&A planned for 3PM on Saturday (Mountain Time) and I will add this to my list for that session. I am starting to get the impression that they are annoyed with me, so I'm going to sit tomorrow out and come back on Saturday. haha

Awesome info! If the velocity blue info is true, I might have just changed my mind on color. Thanks!

Let them know you're asking questions for this forum, they might relax a bit. We know they're aware of this place and our addiction to the F5 button. LOL

Any discussions about the difference between the Badlands vs Sasquatch suspensions?

Yes, essentially they said there is a 9mm difference in the height between a non-Sasquatch and Sasquatch. They didn't seem to think there was a difference for any of the trims outside of the Sasquatch package. Any height difference in the other trims is simply from tire size. There were some questions on this and a lack of final commitment. One guy pulled up an email to get the 9mm number, but it still left me wondering about a difference between the other trims and Badlands, which they seemed to think there wasn't any.

Thank you so much for all of the useful information. Maybe the Ford guys ought to tap the brakes a little on getting annoyed with all the questions since they haven't given us much to work with in almost 2 months. They should call Mike Levine and thank him for such a grand marketing program.

Nate, first of all Thank You!
Can we ask if there will be a white top option-either the regular one or the modular (painted). Looking for just the plain white hard top without the removable side windows..Thanks

Here are some photos of a white top from a pre-production model touring Ford manuafactoring partners. (From Facebook)

 

[irv0735]

Excellent information @irv0735 Thank you very much for all the pictures and information!

Apologies that I wasn't able to get the tape measure out for the seat height. It's more hands off today for sure. Hopefully from the side shot you can do a little measuring though!

YES! He said it was both the front and rear and you could tell how excited he was about it.

I'll add it to the list to see if they will answer.

Could you ask for verification on the Manual transmission design/production? Is it designed and produced in the same location and team that did the MT-82? If so, what specific lessons have been learned and adjustments made for this one?

I'll add it to my list. Unlikely they will have this answer.

They are aware. Yesterday, I was under the radar...today, EVERYONE seems to know who I am and that I posted on Bronco6G. haha

 

[Chrism81]

Any chance of asking if the rubberized floors will be exclusive to the BD/BL/FE? Really hoping we can go about in the OB and WildTrak and not worry about drenching carpet.

I am wondering this too. I am hoping you can add rubber floors to any trim, but I am guessing they won't on the base.

Awesome, thanks for the info. Seems like nobody can get a clear answer. Did they mention where or how the additional 9mm was gained? Or it 35's will fit on a badlands with just the fender flares?

 

[RedRiverRev]

Well, about to test how much Ford appreciates their "passionate customers".

Thank you so much for this info! I wonder if the ease of replacement panels means it'll be cheaper to repair in case of a fender bender/overzealous trail runs?

Ain't got the energy to touch the B&P comment. lol

 

[A_Locke]

On the BroncoNation instagram page they have a Q&A. Someone asked about the white grill and roof option and it appears they are coming out with a color and materials walk-through soon.
