I’ve been thinking about this since the news dropped and posted some of my thoughts. My off the lot Bronco is two weeks old when I get the email from ford that I need to change my order.
I traded all of the off road bits in a standard four door Black Diamond for a Big Bend Squatch in Cactus instead of A51, and it’s a hard top.
I would have offered that SAS could fix anything, but that is part of the trifecta of no-gos. I’d really be sick if I walked away from what I bought. One of the others on the lot was a BD Squatch Softie. It would’ve killed me to know I was stuck waiting for a softie when I could’ve had one with Squatch thrown in as a consolation prize.
I do have to say that owning a Bronco is half the battle. I’d be making concessions to Badlands/ soft/high, or Outerbanks /high /locker if you like cloth better. EVERY picture of the Desert Sand Big Bend interior I’d seen looks like crap. It’s really a great interior that is a taupe color that confuses cameras. If you prefer more muted accents to the blues and oranges (grab handles) it is an unsung option. Get as close as you can as far as interior with a locker and go for it. The aftermarket hard top just got $2500 cheaper, unless rolling on 35’s means that much.
I’m really happy and relieved to have mine, as it is the most fun I’ve ever had driving. This does not stop me from feeling like shit for everyone else.
My thoughts as an owner? All over the goddamn map.
