With the white handles, you should keep a black Sharpie handy, in case a BON member gives you a VIN # to autograph,,,,

If I'm autographing anything it's a body panel before it goes through paint unfortunately.

So I have it narrowed down to these two colors, till I see real world photos of the all the colors

 

 

I really want to see these in person.

several more “real world” photos of the bronco.

So Ford has confirmed a couple of things people were asking regarding manual availability:

 

1. No manual with based no theme 4 door which is auto only (I'm guessing this is going to be fleet order only). No theme 2 door comes standard with manual. If you want 4 door and manual, the entry point appears to be Big Bend.

2. Sasquatch package requires automatic.

3. Outer Banks theme not available with manual despite having standard 2.3 EB.

I'm locked in on Cactus Gray.. hoping the Navy Pier cloth option is available.

 

That would be cool!  Might have to check that out on the Black Diamond (which is the trim I think I want (with 2.7, Mid-Package, and hard top option)).

So does that suggest the stated price for the Outer Banks includes the Automatic transmission?  That would be great, and helps me get closer to the Sasquatch package.

Damn, I recognize a lot of those people. Must be all the salary people getting their press photos done 

 

Those were taken right outside the Stamping/sub assembly building just outside the labor and union offices.

Would you be able to easily identify when a BON members Bronco is coming through?  That would be very cool if you could you could put a note in it somewhere or something like that.

Nope, not unless they can give me the VIN and even then it's damn near impossible because the VIN tags go on after the body is painted.

The Ford website has a 360 colorizer so you can see how the 2 or 4 door looks in any color.  The colors look pretty accurate too.  Scroll down about 2/3rd down this page and its right there. https://www.ford.com/suvs/bronco/2021/?intcmp=brncobrand-learnmore-reveal-bronco

 

 

 

 

Right, but my photos go with the white roof, which is what a lot of people are wondering about.  Plus, Velocity Blue is absent in their colorizer for some reason.

I'm not sure why but I really like the white door handles. 

 

I think they're definitely a unique touch - and FAR better than the stupid black plastic that all but the Outer Banks come with.

You just need to know the right people. I was at MAP in late '96 to see my shiny-new 1st Gen Expedition come off the line,,,,

They keep things a lot more secure than the old days.

I am guessing that this is a badlands. The interior looked very plain. Look at the start button for example. It’s just surrounded in black plastic. We know it’s not a low level trim because it has the 12” screen which requires the HI package.

Sasquatch only available with the automatic per mike Levine Twitter.

Its also a prototype so it might not be 100% production

What is wrong with this transmission that it can't handle the big boy?

I think its a torque issue, at least with the 2.7L

As Mr. Truck talked about on one of his episodes the clutch friction materials don't cut the mustard anymore. You can't get asbestos-like back in the old days. You'll end up with a bunch of burned up clutch plates and pissed off customers. Had a customer in the early 2000's that burned out the clutch his Dakota and wanted it warrantied. No Bueno. Actually went across the state to Rapid City trying to find a dealer he could con.

to move the massive, and HEAVY wheels and tires with the Sasquatch requires BIG time torque....2.3 wouldn't get  out of its own way...and to do so would put undue stress on the clutch, I was wondering about this this morning...now we have clarification...and DAMMIT wife now gets her Auto....wonder if I get to choose the 2 door now...

I think Sasquatch is still available on the 2.3L, just not the MT. I could be wrong though.

Big Bend, Black Diamond, and Bad Lands 4 door come with 7 speed standard.

 

Outer Banks and No Theme 4 door comes standard with auto (and 2.3).

 

Wildtrak and First Edition are only available with V6 so they are also auto only.

Correct

 

Basically, either you get the crawler gear (manual) or front locker with 35" tires (Sasquatch). But not both. 

 

Effectively, Sasquatch defaults you into automatic, which is likely to be several hundred dollars extra on top of whatever Ford is asking for Sasquatch. So let say Sasquatch is $2,500 but in reality, it is more like $3,200 because you gonna have to get automatic too. I can see why Ford wants it this way... it's all about profit margin on options. If they make Sasquatch available on manual, a lot of people will forgo automatic and the extra profit margin. Or they will have to make Sasquatch more expensive, which saps demand.

They say this is the base bronco with Sasquatch.

not just that, autos multiply torque IIRC...manuals don't...makes sense with the big gumbos
