2021 Bronco Wildtrak 2dr

Hi everyone! I've been lurking on these forums for a long time and I'm sorry to just now post.

My Bronco Wildtrak 2dr came in Monday and I drove it home last night. This morning I went to read the manual and... there wasn't one. Not a single piece of paper in the entire truck. Just a small toolkit in the glove box. That's nice but no manual.

There were so many issues with the dealer but fortunately I paid exactly what I was suppose to. This is good because they were selling "used" Broncos for 30k over MSRP.

Anyhow, could anyone give me a list of what came with their bronco, literature wise? I feel I kinda got robbed of some of the experience of buying a new Bronco without any of the self promotion of thr booklets.

Obviously, instructions on how to remove the panels or what grade gas would be nice too (Google says to use 87, but it's the principle).

I called Ford, they told me to download and print out the pdf. I didn't want to contact the dealer because honestly. The experience yesterday was not great. But when I finally did he said he would overnight it to me.

If it came with a zip up folio, I want to make sure I get it.

TIA

The bronco does not come with a printed manual. Only a digital one you can access through the center display.

  1. Bronco quick reference guide. 27 page pamphlet that very high level shows where buttons and features are located. How to remove the tips in 5 steps
  2. 2021 Bronco Supplement Owners Guide. 97 pages. Very general instructions. On how to use the car like seatbelts, inflate tires, tow a trailer, general maintenances
  3. Driving your SUV or Truck. 20 pages of how not to get stuck in sand, mud, rocks, roll over. More of an CYA doc from Ford then a useful manual.
  4. Tire warranty book. What it says.
  5. Advert for SiriusXM radio.

You can buy a full paper copy from Ford, or Helm. I just ordered mine tonight. I always prefer a paper copy to read through, but then usually use the digital one later if I’m looking up something specific.

What literature came with your Brinco [sic]?
I'm hoping that mine will include, at the very least, the complete works of Shakespeare. Some Charles Dickens would be good, as well. And some works by Ernest Hemingway.

like with anything nowadays, you basically get a quick start guide and that's it. I have the pdf on my ipad and on the computer, and then there's the one built into the car. Good enough for me, it's some 500 pages thick and most of that is idiot warnings and all that. I'd pay money for a condensed version without pages and pages of idiot warnings though, if someone wants to edit this thing down :-D

Thank you everyone for their replies. Some were more helpful than others obviously.

For those that got no literature with their brand new truck you may want to contact the dealer.

I contacted the dealer and his reply was basically "oh sh*t, sorry... I'm overnight ship to you now" and sure enough, the next day I had a package that had my vin on it, inside was what I others above showed or listed.

Hey, is it totally important? Probably not, it's mostly available on the app like others mentioned (and thanks for that, that's cool and I missed it) but I consider myself a car guy and the user manual on my vintage car is worth 100 bucks (abd this Bronco packet is 300 dollars online right now). So I kinda wanted it.

:) Wow, you got a manilla envelope! I'm envious, mine was just sitting in the cargo area in shrink wrapped plastic.
