I’d drop the 2.7 for a 2.3 since I’ve driven both in a ranger and f150 now. I’d also drop mod bumper since there are aftermarket options coming.

I could see myself giving up the storage bags... but that’s about as far as I can go.

I'd consider switching to Rapid Red or Cyber Orange if everything else was the same. Maybe even Oxford White. Won't compromise on anything else though.

None because I think the only Bronco’s available before mine will be mannequins

I'd be willing to listen to the finance manager try and upsell me on a bunch of crap I have no intention of buying. As far as changing anything on my order, no. Why? I want what I want and I'm paying (very) good money for it so, with apologies to Burger King, I intend to have it *my* way.

So, I had a purely hypothetical and unlikely scenario pop into my head and thought I'd ask the question. Since all Bronco builds at first are custom ordered, what compromises would you make on your build if a canceled reservation showed up on your local dealer lot (with no ADM for the sake of conversation) before your scheduled delivery date?

I went through a lot of situations in my head and can say that color might be the only thing I'd compromise on. But the more I think about it, I go from one extreme to the other on how much (or little) I'd compromise to take one home sooner.

Just curious if anyone else has thought about this or if everyone else wants their custom no compromise build (nothing wrong with that).
I wonder if the responses would be different if you added, "your compromise would include 10% off the price".

Already made the compromise to forego the Modular Top for the MIC to convert my Wildtrak order and help the dealership with potential allocations. Now I get penalized and don’t get the Ford Pass sympathy points. 🤦🏽‍♂️ Other than that, I will be waiting for MY build.

Nothing, I'm not in need of the vehicle for transportation so no pressure. My first brand new vehicle and first ordered exactly how I want, I have all the time in the world.

Couple SUVs, couple clunkers, one sweet ride.

Well, I haven't made a reservation yet. I'm holding out for the Warthog. HOWEVER, all the sweet bolt-ons being displayed recently could get me to pick up a lower-trim model and build it up to my individual specifications. A Squatch would make it very hard to say no. A 2.7 with Squatch and I would be at the dealer's mercy.

There will be early available Bronco's without a minimum of $5,000 to $10,000 ADM.

(with ADM for the sake of conversation)

None. I am not getting any younger. I would rather wait a little and get it my way.
