Photos of Outerbanks in Rapid Red

SandboxGeneral

Ummm.... okay... did I miss the news article or thread someplace on this? I found these photos on the 6G forum (posted around 1am today), watermarked with Bronco Nation. Yet I don't know where they were posted on this site....

It would appear 6g is taking the pictures off Instagram. The Bronco Nation Instagram account posted these. The Instagram account is titled "thebronconation" and frequently has pictures from the Michigan Assembly Plant. Keep in mind their Instagram account has well over 35,000 followers.

Thank you for the explanation. :)

Not being on social media myself, I don't know these things.

We have said this a few times. Bronco Nation needs to put everything on this site that they put on Facerace and Instastuff or anywhere else. Many of us don’t have time for those groups.
You would think that they have paying customers here that this should be the first place all of this gets posted.

Yep, I agree.

@SandboxGeneral , @Hobgoblin I understand your concern. From my perspective, BN does a fine job communicating aspects related to the 2021 Bronco. The marketing personnel appear to have an accurate understanding of how to reach potential Bronco buyers. Clearly, the vast majority follow Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and to a much lesser volume the BN and 6g forums. Based on the number of Bronco reservations they have a winning formula!

It seems to me; the BN marketing personnel publish pictures on a daily or weekly basis to Instagram. These pictures are in turn picked up by 10 to 12 other Instagram influencers with a combined volume of followers approaching 100,000. The more detailed videos appear on YouTube. It is on YouTube where many more (100,000+) potential buyers are viewing the material. (Our Forum has maybe 1500 members, with most not active.)

In many ways our BN site is much more than just a place to communicate pictures/videos regarding the 2021 Bronco. I suspect the BN marketing personnel understand that characteristic about our Forum. I do not see their approach changing at any time in the future.

I understand many individuals do not like using or have time for social media sites. However, the Forums on both BN and 6g are very much social media sites.

BuzzyBud,
I don’t disagree with your assessment of the situation and the foundation and purposes of this forum and other social media sites. You can even see the social media tags that they have included on the photos. There is certainly a wider net to be cast with those platforms. I don’t really have a problem with those sites despite having some fun with their names sometimes. I am just suggesting that it can be a “yes and” approach and include them here as well.
I am not really missing out since 6G is following those sites and posting new information on their site. Just think since they are from Bronco Nation that it should be a surround sound approach to include their own site as well.
I am going to let go of the rope on this one. Time for me to move on to other things.

Seems like you have a lot of time on your hands, considering most of your posts are paragraphs on here. Maybe you could start a thread that solely consists of posts from IG/Facebook for those members who do not use these platforms.

Funny that you say that, I have actually tried that in the past. However, our BN Forum has safeguards in place to prevent spam style postings. Most of the time my posts go into a “hold for review” status and can be delayed for 24 to 48 hours. By that time the topic is old news. Oh well!

Yeah I know and get all that.

My complaint is that if BN is posting all of this stuff on social media where people can view it for free, they should also, simultaneously, post all of that content here as well, and especially for the paid memberships.
