Work through a buildout? Ford has fumbled this release after their engineers produced an unbelievable truck.

Build & price goes live earlier tonight at 11PM CT


Be sure to add the $5,000 addendum if you want it sooner, rather than later.

Agreed. I read somewhere that the V6 adds in an ABS system and you can’t have that with a manual.

I’ve got one ordered but may hold off, my salesman said the full-size version is coming right behind the mid size.

Did the pricing numbers get released? I thought I heard they were going to be pretty reasonably priced but with the current auto market who knows. I know its not a Bronco but I have been eagerly waiting seeing the new ford truck body style on the road but haven't seen any yet and I thought they had come out. Maybe I'm wrong but I usually see a ton of new ones on the road when they come out.

I have a reservation for a big bend. Just tried the build and price and holy crap. My $35k Bronco became a $51k Bronco real fast. I was really hoping to keep it in the upper 30s but doesn’t looks like that’s going to happen. May have to rethink this purchase.

You think the 2.7 is better than the 3.5?

New engine technology has found a way to drive plenty of performance out of less displacement while also managing efficiency far better than larger engines.

But those smaller engines are working exponentially harder than a naturally aspirated V8, resulting in shorter lifespan.

Whens the last time you heard of someone wearing an engine out?

These small turbocharged engines are great. The 2.7 from Ford is probably the perfect half ton truck engine.

The 3.5 makes an absolute caseload of power.

But I drive over 40k a year.

If I'm biting the bullet on one of these it needs to get better mpg than the 3.5 can provide

I'm not a domestic fan.

You got a bad eco boost
