The Carbonized Gray stock wheels look so good with Rapid Red! I self-installed the hood mat and it fits and could not be easier to install. Also did the bumper protector and that was easy following the instructions. A spray bottle with soapy water is the trick there. Good on you getting an engine cover out of the dealer.Purchased 2021 BS BB package and took delivery this week. Rapid Red in colour and love it. My 2019 Ford Taurus was written off in a bad crash and I was forced to shop quicker than I wanted. I had hoped to hold off a year or two and get into a hybrid once market settled down.
I started with Ranger as an option, then considered F-150 and even test drove an F-150 Lariat Hybrid but couldnt relax in a vehicle that expensive. We settled on an Escape Hybrid and were at the dealership to finalize the deal and saw what my wife called "a cute car" beside us. It had just arrived at the dealership. We test drove it and bought it. While doing paperwork three people came in to buy it. I am X-plan so I think we did ok.
Now back on topic "what have I done today" or over the past two or three days to fix it up.
- already came with roof-rail crossbars "on road: as a dealer installed option
- argued with dealership about missing engine cover and got one on the way now
- ordered Redline Tuning hood struts to be installed by me
- ordered the Cravenspeed shorter stubby radio antenna (4 inches)
- went back and forth with parts dept about hood insulation and ordered that despite them saying it wont fit but they are on huge back order (going with the assurance of members here that hood insulation will fit)
-ordered, received and will install rear bumper cover
- received Bronco branded first aid kit and installed fire extinguisher
- installed the rubber Bronco branded trailer hitch receiver cover for a nice look
- had dealership order rubber mats at their expense and waiting delivery
- ordered and received garage door remote as my package doesnt have the built in visor controls
So far so good. Enjoy reading the updates and comments from everyone and look forward to sharing more about my new ride.
