And, it needs an oil change. I still have one free oil change from the dealer, but not sure if they do that at the house, so it may need to be scheduled there.
Local dealerships offering mobile service in my area have a number of offered services including oil changes. For one dealership I posted a list of their mobile services but this may vary with dealerships in your area that offer mobile service:

Yep; they did the oil change from the mobile service van as well. I posted another thread on how pleased I am with the service I received about this. Thumbs up for Parks Ford in Gainesville Florida.

I’ve had my last couple done by the service van too. Despite the fact that I can walk home quicker than I can drive there (Maps doesn’t account for a couple lights while driving, nor does it really show the best route to hop through the alleys…). Still, rather than the shop they want me to book the van. Which is great, I’m not sure why they’re pushing mobile service quite so much other than I must be costing their showroom a pile in coffee & snacks while waiting. But it also reduces their visibility to show me new cars while I wait too.

I never thought of the coffee that I drink when waiting on my vehicle being serviced.

And you are correct with the lust over the new cars...I want a full size Bronco in the worst way!

And that's how it begins...
Yea, but I can't afford them with the mark ups with aftermarket parts and wheel packages they put on them.

A related story -- in 1985 I wanted a base Toyota Truck. They were advertised for $5,995, incl. freight. So I called around. Every dealer said they had several trucks, but not that one. If they had the base model they had already packed it with add-ons: paint protection; fabric guard; pin stripes; floor mats, undercoating; rustproofing, etc.

After an epic search I finally found one. It turned out to be the burgundy color I wanted which was a nice surprise. The dealer was very easy to deal with too -- no surprises. $5,995 + tax, tags, and title.

Of course it was *stripped* -- manual steering, manual everything except brakes. No passenger side mirror. The rear view mirror did not dim. No radio. No A/C (I had the dealer add that). Oh yeah -- it had bias-ply tires! I replaced them with Michelin LTX tires.

Anyway, you should be able to find a base Bronco if you're willing to travel to get it. Can a base Bronco be ordered?

Good question as to ordering one. The wife and I will need to make this decision soon, or at least within a year and 3 months, as this is when the warranty expires (we won't reach the 36K mile part).

I’ve noticed the Ford reps can be helpful, but they sometimes miss follow‑ups, so I usually back up anything important with a call to the number they provide. On a side note, I’ve used find social media by face before to track down fake accounts using my photos, and it worked well enough that I kept it bookmarked. It might help if anyone here ever runs into impersonation issues.
