What do you guys think about the “Everglades”?

[Peaches]

I don’t really see anyone talking about the Everglades, do people not like it?

I think only offering 2.3A killed a lot of the buzz.

I like the wheels.

I think it’s a super cool idea for a special edition vehicle. BUT I don’t need a snorkel. If I’m in deep enough water that I need a snorkel… many mistakes were made.

For most people I think the big downside was the lack of a 2.7L engine option.

I think only offering an automatic + 2.3L killed a lot of the buzz.

An excuse to get more 2.3As on the road.

@Chase Gentry had a thread here with a good video with the day he spent with it.

Ford shot themselves in the foot with all the different trims and certain options only available on some models. Especially since they have had trouble getting 3 different trims built in a timely manner much less 6+? If I had control over all of it there would have been a Bronco frame and body then left the rest up to the customer.

Why buy a "special" (I guess) edition with a snorkel if it leaves out other things you want in a Bronco? Same reason I didn't buy an OBX and went with the BD (loss for Ford) because it had more of the options I wanted. And most importantly an interior that wasn't butt ugly.

Do I think Ford will be hurting after this, nope. But they could have had a much more thrilling launch by doing away with tired old "only available on certain trim levels" model.

i just want the fn fenders, that's it.

 

[BottleShark]

No 2 door or Lux package.

wheels and tan are nice but the rest is meh because of the 2.3

 

[MNBigfoot]

Snorkel is 2 feet to short.

Saw one in Desert sand at Carlisle Ford weekend. I was never a fan first off because it only comes with the four doors. The snorkel has no use for me as well. The biggest “ NO” is the Everglades decal on the front fenders. Horrible. The color was cool though.

Probably has a lot to do with where the alternator is on the 2.7...

I like the wheels, I like the Fenders, I love the interior. However the 2.3 is not for me. It's a perfectly fine motor, but a special trim with a base motor isn't that special to me. The snorkel looks silly and I would never need it. The everglades graphics are a bit much. I'm nowhere near the everglades and "mudding" is not a style of off-roading that appeals to me or I want to partake in.
