Mercedes has a supply chain issue also. I had to wait 2 months for a fuel pump for a Sprinter. Dealer said the pump came from Germany and they can't get them because of Covid. I told the dealer that the van is made in the US so you must be telling me that production is halted because they do not have fuel pumps also. Go to the lot and steal one from a van that you have.


It is funny how dealers, any dealers, can say it is tough to find a certain part but we can find and get them quicker.

While we are all enthusiasts, we are not even a consideration in the marketplace.

Land Rover never had the following that Jeep, Ford, etc... has. Land Rover is a "niche" brand at best across their entire product range in the US. I may be wrong, but I think Land Rover had trouble selling the Defender new in 1994 and 1995 -- it certainly wasn't a slam dunk for them back then. The Bronco will be successful here because of their current brand recognition and place in American popular culture.

Geez, it's almost like Ford has done this marketing thing before....

Sorely disappointed with LR ... but as long as I can get bits for the old ones I don't really care about the newFender or LR in general.

The Boss is noodling on selling her '97SW for a Bronco o_O

I’m in the same boat. Will not change out my RRC and D1. Will T keeps them both going.
Keep the ‘90 and just lease the Bronco with a good buy out if you want to keep it.

There is a new bronco in town where I live. I’m surprised by how small it is in person. It’s a 4 door sport model, and my wife says it looks like a Jeep Liberty. She’s right!

I put down a deposit on one (not a sport), I'm waiting for proof that I can order an absolute base model with a manual transmission + the sasquatch package (3 lockers + 34s) before I put the actual order in.

Ran across this new Sport First Edition the other day. Can't wait to see its big brother.

I've seen the Sport and it doesn't impress me any more than the Escape.

Not sure how different the versions are in size, but the 2.3 Eco is a good engine. The 2.7 V6 is a really nice engine in the F150.

Saw a Sport the other day and it caught my eye. It really does look like an LR2, but with slightly more rugged style. For what it is, I like it. Looks like a fun vehicle for more common adventures.

I think it was this color. Similar to Arles blue.

My wife and I test drove a Sport Badlands with the 2.0 Ecoboost. It looked a tad smaller in person than we thought it was going to be, but was quite roomy on the inside. To us, it was eye-catching and aesthetically pleasing. It handled well, was peppy and quite responsive. Overall, it seemed to be a really good mid-sized SUV value for the price.

That’s my take on it as well. Had an Escape for a company car and drove the wheels off of it. Other than typical maintenance items spent nothing on it. And around here everyone drives a ‘Bubaru so something different. Feel sure the big brother will be really nice yet liking the little guy as well.

I've got a "feature" question, why can't I order an absolute base model/stick with ONLY the sasquatch package yet? #AnswerMeFoMoCo
They said they’ll make it, but that’s not where the money is. Outer banks model is going to be their money maker. They’re probably going to build tons of those first.

I have a salesman calling me every 2 months asking if I'm ready to order, I just keep telling him the same thing.
