I want them all black, but the picture for the wheels in build show they are not all black. However the generated overall picture shows all black. Also almost all pre production and in the wild show all black. Confused why the wheels in the selector are different?

I'm guessing what we've seen on the preproduction is what we'll be getting. I've learned after ordering a couple Broncos, that the online configuration is sometimes off.

They are not all black nor machined with black accents. They are sort of a satin gunmetal color as shown above. I can't fathom why a company the size of Ford can't hire some competent people to run their website.

I agree completely! I have got a 35” on order and hoping the wheels are not as silver as shown on the wheel options on the configuration tool. I too would prefer black but i did not care for the optional rim style you could spec on the 35” i think that was a beadlock.

That online generator is brokedick as hell. We can’t even see the interior with any sort of detail. The wheels are all over the place and the recaros are different in the website and every preproduction we’ve seen is different.

Ford is really kind of schizophrenic these last few years. They hit a home run with the Mustang GT350; then discontinue it. They cancel all development work on cars; yet they keep the terrible Fusion while axing the Focus RS. They invent the OEM Baja truck; then they cede the podium to Ram. They pitch the whole automotive world into a tizzy with the new Bronco; they completely blow the launch. They seem to be all about 'orders' and 'reservations'; yet they can't get their websites to work worth a damn. Customers are confused, nobody knows when they can order a car much less receive one.

Covid hosed them but their website is all them. They have a slew of great new products so they will be fine.

I really wanted to buy an American truck but they've made too many decisions I don't want to live with: dropped the supercab configuration, paired 37s only with a terrible interior & loaded spec and overpriced the 37 pack massively. I wanted a basic supercab on 37s for around $65K. Screw an $80,000 Ford pickup.

I think being such a short my21 they limited the packages. On the Bronco you can get the Sasquatch package (35's) on any model. If Ford is smart they do the same with the 37's. I'm sure there would be a lot of takers for a Base Raptor with 37's.

They need to prepare the marketplace for a $90,000+ Raptor R. So the 'base' model has to get more expensive. Keep in mind they are also prepping the showroom for a Ranger Raptor that will probably start at $49,995 and run up to the base F150 Raptor pricing.
