I have no idea if there would be any interest in this. For your consideration as a data point and nothing else. I have zero affiliation with Galpin Ford or anyone there.

Today I saw a Rapid Red Badlands/Badlands with 360+ and a couple other minor factory options (I don't remember them all, but sticker was $39,4xx IIRC). The lighting in the showroom made it impossible to get a pic of the window sticker, especially through the dealer-installed tint (part of the "desert protection package"). It didn't show up on the Ford.com vehicle search last I checked.

I like the salesman that I've talked to there a couple times previously - both he and his sales manager are up to speed on both the Bronco and the BS, probably nearly as much so as the collective here. They were really happy to just chat about both models on the couple occasions I've been there. Just being able to speak to a salesperson with a competent level of knowledge on their product was a welcome change. Anthony is the salesman, https://www.galpinonline.com in case there's any interest.

I was able to take this picture of the windshield sticker; no comment from me either way, it's a commodity that they own and they can sell it as they please.

They also had a Bronco Wildtrack A51 that I got to poke around in; it was the first Bronco I've seen in the flesh, and I was happy with the general characteristics of it - dimensions, looks. If availability of the BS remains tight, I may just wait for a '23 or later Bronco and skip the BS entirely. I had sort of formed a plan of getting a BS in the interim, but if demand keeps ADM at that level, I'll pass. I'm sure the little Rapid Red guy won't be there long, someone who wants it badly enough will pony up (pun intended).

Generally seeing $2000 Market adjustment in the Nebraska, Iowa region. $8000 seems a bit overboard.

Love that 2K of "desert protection plan". They should've stopped pretending it's a separate item and just added it to 8K.

They can ask for the $8K. I cant believe anyone would ever pay this. Who would do this.

With the never ending pandemic, who knows when manufacturing will ever get back to "normal".
Yes still ongoing major global supply chain issues. Ford CEO thought back in June we would see some improvements by August. But apparently that didnt happen. Shortages of workers, COVID variants, shipping issues ect ect ect.

Salesman said the 2.0 production is currently stalled due to parts shortages. I learned that it's made in Spain, at least that's what the content sticker said.

This isn't an affluent town, lots of moderate income retirees here. Still, I think it will go fairly quickly - it's practically a unicorn at the moment. I have a hard time brining myself to consider paying sticker, let alone ADM - it's only a matter of time until production catches up or I'll consider another of the many amazing machines on the market. Or just be happy with the fleet I have. On the one hand, I'd like to have two new cars in the next couple years; but knowing that totals over $100k, I can't help but dream about what even half that bankroll would make my '71 Bronco and 7.3 Excursion look like.

Depends. If it's something you want and you have plenty of money, is it foolish? Some people don't care about cost or resale, they want what they want and just get it. Lots of things I buy on a weekly basis would be considered "foolish" by others.

Some people would consider letting a mere $8k keep you from having your new baby Bronco the foolish move. I'm just not in their income bracket. :frown:

I got that on my Outer Banks for $798.00. It's the ceramic window film and it really does work well. The sun doesn't even feel warm when it shines through any of the windows. Also allegedly they did some kind of ceramic glaze on the paint and something on the leather and fabric on the interior also.

I stand corrected. Good to know. Thanks.

A lot of people lease vehicles these days, if you could lease it for $500 a month or so, someone will take it.
