What are you buying instead of a Bronco?

[Hkak45]

I currently have a day 1 reservation for a OCNORB that I am excited for and can’t wait to pick up ?

Not cancelled either of my reservations just yet, but now on the fence. The delays have pushed my likely delivery dates into about the same period as the Rivian R1T 400+ and the price increases have moved into roughly similar territory as well (after factoring in the EV incentives.)

If Ford drives me away from the Bronco by further botching this release I will most likely buy a Ram Rebel but would also consider a gladiator or wrangler rubicon.

Yeah .... looking for an ‘05 so I can actually swap out the bearing for an LN or EPS retrofit. The ‘06-‘08s went to the strongest of the three bearings but it’s still a sealed bearing problem is it can’t be swapped unless you tear the engine down. ?‍?‍

tried to buy a messed up cayman that the ims bearing failed on ,the guy and i agreed on a price i show up with trailer he finds out i was going to put a coyote in it from my stupid helper.
Guy cancels deal says thats not the direction he wanted to see it go?..porsche owners?
Check out rebel motorsports in tx 5.0 into cayman conversion?

Every few days I browse CarGurus for:

Ram Rebel
Ram Power Wagon
Colorado ZR2 Duramax
GM 1500 AT4 Duramax
Jeep Gladiator

Ford is probably one more botch away from me just going to buy one of those and start enjoying it now.

Ford has obviously jacked this Bronco rollout up with all their strange packages, colors, and prices. I am curious what you are now looking at instead of that Bronco you were planning on? I was day 1 res holder looking at 4D Base with Sas 2.7 auto, but probably not anymore. Please let me know what you are getting and why.

Considering switching to a pickup because as it is now I need two vehicles. One is to tow my wife’s horse trailer and one for family duties. Bronco wouldn’t cut it in the towing dept so id keep our suburban. If I got a tundra crewmax and did some mods it would be great for camping and cross country trips and towing the trailer. Added bonus is that it would be 5-6 k less than my bronco build.

I'm a 7/25 holder and I'm going to hold out until the BNP is finalized, hopefully by 1/10/2021. If Ford doesn't fix their shit with the interiors and tops, they might as well rename the company to Fraud. In this case, I plan on ordering a Jeep Rubicon and order it from Idaho instead of Texas. Also, I have to keep in mind that the Fraud Bronco is an expense, not an appreciating asset.

Jason as long as these guys come on here with the swan songs as they leave I am gonna cheer them on, if someone doesn't want to buy a Bronco then go in peace, no hard feelings from me.

You do you boo. Nobody made you click on a thread that you already knew would make you upset before you did it. If someone doesn't want to get a Bronco and is asking for other suggestions then more power to them. At least leave it to people who actually want to be constructive.

"working on it"

I thought everyone who canceled on here was going to add the reservation date as a courtesy to those still moving forward?
As for the complaints and cancellations, well Ford is listening and watching, this thread/cancellations can only add pressure to Fords response .. Last nights tweet from Mr.Levine stated they are updating B&P again .. let's see what happens next!

I'm waiting. I'm driving a '16 JKU with a little over 50,000 miles and no payments. I'm not in a hurry to spend money. With no Cold Weather Pkg available for BD that includes heated steering wheel, no stand alone option for the B&O sound system and no confirmation of the sunrider for hardtop being available for the 2 door, I'll continue to wait. If I'm going to spend around $50,000 I want those options. If a year or two go buy and I still can't get those on a Bronco I'll probably get another Wrangler.

Please just leave and drop the res so we can move up in line...no one needs the drama queen sob story...you say you’re going, so just be a man and go without seeking out sympathy and people to join you to make you feel better about yourself.

No need to be nasty to me. I wasn’t looking for sympathy I was just wondering what people were cross shopping because there are a lot of alternatives and I have actually got some really good ideas from folks constructive responses on here. I didn’t make you click this thread and you knew what it was. Please take your negative comments elsewhere. Also Ford reads these threads, so all these comments only put pressure on Ford to do better ?

In the meantime a Mclaren 765LT in Tokyo Cyan blue in the works. Here is what it will look like when completed.

Can't wait to see that baby at Moab!!!

I am buying time, instead of the Bronco, right now.

Looking forward to putting in the order to lock some prices down.

Found a ‘21 rubicon diesel in Sting Grey with the exact options I would build at a local dealer if I were to order one... It’s basically at the same MSRP as my potential BL.

*0% APR for 36mths...Sooo tempting.
