My wife just got her 2024 eruption green outer banks w/sasquatch, 2.7L, hard top and the high/lux package she ordered the beginning of November. They said 7-12 months and got it in under 5. Love it so far, but it’s only been a week.
I wanted a base bronco with Sasquatch as well… I heard they added that white roof and put 2k worth of additions and call it the heritage edition now for 20k more… ford is some bastards
Ford should let you start at base model and option whatever hardware you want separately. There's no reason to hold off sway bar disconnect and front locker for higher trims.

I'm buying used for sure. I think 51k for a new big bend not including taxes with an average 7-10 % loan getting near apartment payment numbers. Toward the end of the year those 21's and 22's will start getting into the 36k-38.
Get out and shop the 2023. You might find they are coming in under MSRP. Just bought my 2023 Wildtrax Sasquatch Lux HD bumper for $1100 under MSRP and no BS fees either I think these things are coming in and people have backed out on their orders after waiting so long. Dealers getting backed up.
I have a 2023 Badlands Sasquatch with the high package and hardtop. I bought it new in mid May. The hardtop is starting to warp and bubble. Im going to bring it in after winter to see if it gets worse first.
Should all be warranties but make sure to not go over the warranty of 3 years or 36 000 miles. It's not both its one or the other. If you bust one your no longer warrantied for the global warranty
Thanks just subscribed I had a New Jeep Truck decided we needed more towing for and RV I ordered a 2024 Chevy Diesel I hate it Drove a 2023 2-Door Bronco and felt I was back in my Jeep so I’m going that way! Love your video I hope I just pushed you over 500 subscribers 😊
Um the top issues are NOT over. I just took delivery of a 2023 2 door and the top is scratched, gouged, scuffs, and off-colored …Even the vertical side pillar is gouged.
Looking at a wildtrak. Plenty of 23s in my area and a hand full of 2024s on lots here in michigan. Is the consensus still 23 if 24s are available? Not much of a price change from what i see locally
Hi thanks for the videos! My dealer has a 23 wildtrack in the color I want , he is not charging above msrp. Should i go with that or wait for 24 bronco which will be $400 more and a wait time. Thank you
Yes some will be disspointed. With tined wi down I find both are just fine but ouch if you leave the top open amd the sun hits it right on amd your wearing shorts
Yep I was going to order a '24 Badlands trim but now with Ford only offering plastic floors and plastic seats--they call it "marine grade vinyl", Tesla calls it "vegan leather"--I'm going to pass. Too much cheap plastic in the Bronco as it is, and adding more just makes it feel cheap cheap cheap. I live in a hot area and I absolutely can't stand plastic seats, they burn you in the summer and when you go to the mountains in the winter they are ice cold. Even ford's website advertises the cloth seats on the heritage edition as "cool in the summer and warm in the winter". They are doing this for cost cutting and streamlining production, but at these elevated MSRPs it's going to send buyers elsewhere.
That is a fantastic and important question. Early on, when hard tops sometimes had issues. There were some hard tops that made more noise than the softop. However in general the softest opp will make more noise but still be very livable. Now, this isn't a luxury car, so don't expect complete silence. You will be bothered by the noise potentially at 85 miles per hour if you ever go that fast, and if you don't listen to the radio. While the radio is playing the softball noise is never much of an issue. ALSO for those not bothered by background sounds the tops will not be an issue but either soft or hardtop their will be more background wind noise than on a standard vehicles roof
I finally was able to test drive a hard top badlands. I was a little shocked that a newly designed vehicle, would have has so much engine noise and the Goodyear All terrains defiantly had some hum to them. When I went over 45 miles per hour the wind noise defiantly kicked up. To be honest, it was pretty similar to my Jeep Wrangler, but the noise level was much worse than my two year old F-150 Platinum. I would say I'm disappointed in the noise level. If Ford can make my F-150 as quiet as a church mouse, they should be able to make the Branco a lot quieter. Some sound insulation around the drive train isn't to much to ask for when you are spending $65,000 on a vehicle. This is not a deal killer for me, but it is a disappointment that creates no urgency to trade in the Jeep.
I'm very satisfied with my 2023 two door BD Bronco. My only suggestion to Ford would be to make the back seats easy to remove or at fold forward. BTW... I'm very satisfied with the 23.3 MPG with the 2.3L.
@@garyeckler2425 Have an order in for a 2024 Red fully loaded Badlands with Sasquatch. Custom ordered with marine grade vinal. Ordered Oct 16 and still no word on build.
Thank you Frank for the feedback. Our soft top has been great in the winter but will be costly to replace but by then a used or new hard top purchase will be considered
At the end about people stealing stuff is really BS . Because if someone want to steal stuff they would just cut the top with a broken bottle or a kniff . Best thing is to keep the door unlocked and everything out of the Bronco . After all if some theif want in he or she will get in .
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews When you take half the package that came with base, get rid of the most affordable trim, and then sell it back to us as at a premium and call it more options in the next year model, it’s trash man. Everything ford has done in ‘23 and ‘24 models is straight scum tactics. Won’t change my mind on that and I own a bronco. Sleazy shit all day. But give a simple man a subwoofer and oh they’re as happy as a turtle in creek mud.
Ford screw up big time on that bronco .we shouldn't have had to wait 3 years to fix a water issue., Gutters shoukd have been put on the first edition. I have a wildtrak 2023 and for what i paid trust me its thr little things that count and Ford missed the mark. And how in the world did All American Ford in Freehold NJ have the Balls to ask me for $10k over sticker??? ,I went to Freehold Ford down thr road who wanted $5k but like an ass i paid $2500. OVER STICKER. .
Great down to earth review- especially that the gentleman is respectful of his wife
I'm a lucky man and she deserves the best treatment so I work hard and try to provide as much as possible. Thank you for the help and support

Love my 2023 Black Diamond but dang I would've loved that 12in screen....
Ford deleting the Base model is a big mistake.
There's a work trim bronco coming. I don't know if it's available to the general public tho
I know. I was wanting the base 2-Door 7M with Sasquatch.
I wanted a base bronco with Sasquatch as well… I heard they added that white roof and put 2k worth of additions and call it the heritage edition now for 20k more… ford is some bastards

4 20 24 there cutting out the base model. But I do agree that it be great to be able to add sway. Bargas connect to a big bend or black diamond

Thanks. It's a 2003 Mach 1 5-Speed. Just hit 76K miles
I have a Big Bend, and honestly, I feel like less is more with these vehicles. I couldn't be happier.
Thank you Augustdrums for sharing your experience with the community
I don't always enjoy adaptive cruise control so I know what you mean.
I'm buying used for sure. I think 51k for a new big bend not including taxes with an average 7-10 % loan getting near apartment payment numbers. Toward the end of the year those 21's and 22's will start getting into the 36k-38.
Agreed. As inventory grows used prices will drop
Just bought a 21 big bend for $35 k. Love it.
2024's are updated plus the one I just ordered doesn't come with a "market adjustment" like the 23's on the lot...

Thank you for this intel. Haven't had one yet with issues since 2022 and your information is allreciated
So useful! Huge thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for taking the time to share some kindness
Saw a big bend with sas for 53k but didn't have the mid package or the 2.7 😒
2024 Big Bend cannot have the 2.7l. It can have mid package however. Thank you for watching
Love the content! Do you know if the 2024 mid package now include the front facing camera? Or is that only avail in Lux?
Waiting on the order guide but I'd bet a beer it will be lux only
Lux only now
Ford should bring Bronco to Australia. Trust me it will be a highest selling car compared to Ranger or Everest !!
Agreed. It would seem perfect for the geography and culture
Very informative video hoping to get one soon.
Thank you Bonnie
Heritage looks so much nicer

Now I'd ger a 2024 unless your area offers à promotion in rebate or % on the 2023
depends if you care about scratches

Buy the 2023 unless it's a model with 8 inch screen and you want a 12 inch
Thank you for trusting me with your question
Got the OBX because of cloth seats, just not a fan of vinyl or leather, just too damn hot!!!

2024 badlands can't wait until it arrives
Tim that is an awesome awesome build great choice my friend
What is the difference in noise level with the soft top vs the hard top?

All broncos have better sound deadening materials than a nineteen ninety one ford escort.

Soft tops are not to desirable in cold climates. AND VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLA.CE
and in Hot -not warm- climates too
Is thenproblem long term? We enjoyed our 2 winters with our soft tops and had no issues in the hot Florida sun
Thank you Frank for the feedback. Our soft top has been great in the winter but will be costly to replace but by then a used or new hard top purchase will be considered
Well, with the strike. I guess you should get a ‘23.
Curre try it is the Bronco/Ranger plant thst is closed but only that factory is on strike
Ive read articles that theres a "work" trim coming this year
That would hit me as a big surprise
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews Google it. I'm serious.
@@Johnnyscarcarereviews and there's plenty others
Yeah Ford should have never dropped the base model
Thank you for taking the time to drop a comment and for sharing your opinion
hard top 23 badlands ❤❤
Love it as well. BADLANDS IS A GREAT MODEL. LOVE OUR Broncos
What 2024 models have HOSS 3.0
Are you keeping your earphones in and back of shirt untucked to prepare for something big to happen?
Lol. I do look silly but it is important to always be prepared for the worse
Plan for the worse and hope for the best

Ford needs the Base trim back… shit went from 28k to 45k entry… straight trash for a price point.
It's a frustrating change but the Big Bend isn't trash. Are the prices high? Like everything now yes but still not trash.
