Congratulations, you will not be disappointed, I love my BS to death and every stranger that approaches me and asks how I like my vehicle, I can easily say with pride, "it's the best truck I ever owned!"
Just picked my Big Bend up from the dealer's auto-glass shop. $1025.00 later, new windshield. Nothing hit it, woke up last Thursday with a 30' crack across the sensing unit. Waiting for Ford's response but initially they said I was out of warranty although the car is 9 months old.
I agree with your observations, I don’t see too many on the road as of yet, I bought the second unit on the lot but my dealer is not getting the shipments. I also have noticed the about 70% of the drivers I have seen were on the old side
