I'm not not ready to order.

Ford still hasn't shown us fundamental things:

- What is the gas mileage?

- How does the soft top work?

- How do you remove the doors and roof?

- Real photos of all of the trims and colors.

- How does sync 4, off road pages, etc. look?

This isn't asking a lot. Were about to lock in options on $40-60k vehicles.
Add
- What are the specs on Badlands and Sasquatch suspensions and lifts?

- Does Big Bend Signature light option include LED tail lights? If not, is this option available?

- Does Sasquatch package include Dana 210 front axel?

I'm ready to order, because I've finally decided between BD and BL. BL it is. I have no other decisions to make. Next decision will be where to drive it.

For me, they've screwed up this launch enough to have me contemplating getting another vehicle for 2-3 years and then come back to the Bronco.

(and before you get all excited, I didn't reserve mine until late July, so most of you won't be moving up the line)

Exactly
Most of this stuff will be shown to you at delivery, hey Mr. Salesman can you walk me through the removal of the soft top? Can you show me the ins and outs of the interior and the tech stuff. I’ve never bought a new car where there isn’t a demonstration done by the salesman...

As far as the gas mileage ? I’m not buying a 4x4 off roader and worrying about 16 mpg or 18 mpg..

I would like to see at least some more “real” life photos of the colors but it isn’t going to delay me ordering or not ordering..
I got 20mpg with a explorer st. I gotta figure this will get at least that

Possibly..
I’m going to take a wild ass guess that ford isn’t going to send out a cobbled ass mess from production...
To me this shit isn’t make or break for spending 50k
I guess if these are the things you need to calm any possible fears you may have about purchasing the bronco you might need to hold off...most of the salesmen at reputable dealers will have had training and walk through sway before delivery takes place..

I’ve never ordered a new car let alone a brand new re-release of a vehicle so this is all new to me but man there is so much negativity regarding ford and the bronco..
To me it’s simple I’ve written down the negatives and positives and the positives outweigh the negatives...

Everyone needs to find their own breaking point..
We have no reason to have much confidence at this time. Looking at what may occur moving forward in a positive light would require forgetting the delays, constant changes and mixed messages over the last 6 months, and much to do with covid for sure. What has been promised either does not exist on B&P or has been addressed as late availability with no eta. At least that's how my pros/cons list shakes out

With zero main stream, extensive vehicle testing/reviews.

Ford says the Order books open up in December...
Personally, I think it'll be delayed. I mean, B&P is still a hot mess 2 weeks after going live. Canadian site accessories options all blank still... No "late availability" options listed...
Ford just isn't ready for this...
And not to be pessimistic, but I'm fully prepared to wait a full YEAR from now to take delivery.
They may surprise you and close the gaps before the end of the month. I do, however agree that my BL won’t arrive in 2021 and I have a July reservation. Fine with me - I can wait.

If you compare the timeline to Bronco Sport launch. A massive information dump including MPG specifics, ratings, reviews, dealer tours, etc. came in mid-late October. Just days before VINS were assigned and job one in Mexico.

You really should say you have no reason to have much confidence in Ford

I understand that to a point but I also look at the other positives Ford has done...

Like I said everyone needs to make their own decisions on what they are willing to concede in buying a vehicle

It’s not ever going to be perfect fuck nothing is...

Good luck

I think real life colors and gas mileage are 2 very valid concerns. And I don’t mean a line of gas cans 2 inches apart that’s not helpful at all imo. Yes we know the off-road crew & previous Jeep owners aren’t concerned about mileage but it’s a genuine issue for those with hopes of this being a DD.

I don't give a, shit about L/100Km (yeah, Canadian)...
But ford does and they wanna get that number right! Considering they've been sued/pending suit about false info on other models.
