2023 FORD BRONCO ORDERING INFORMATION

[FordVideoGuy]

I have a order date of 8/14/21 , do I need to be in line at my dealer on opening day of MY23 to keep my place in line ? I hope Ford does not reshuffle the deck

No, Ford will be converting 22 orders over to 23 order September 1-11 for dealers so they can keep the priority dates on orders.

Did I read somewhere that the MY22 to MY23 orders will have a sub-10 priority code or is that wishful thinking?

Time to order a wrangler 392 in mean time. Why can ford not figure out this production issue? Makes no sense to me. Demand is high, put other factories to help build broncos, mavericks etc.

I absolutely agree
It’s a cluster and coming in Today that’s your only option

definitely time to order a 392
Since none of the broncos minus a raptor compare with the 392

Had a 392 wrangler xr few months back. That took about 5 months from order to delivery. Had to sell it as had personal reasons and did not expect to arrive that quick.

Broncos should not take months to many years to get. By time they hit customers, the hype will die down. I like the Bronco and will order one but its a shame that Ford can mess up this release.

As far as 392 vs raptor. Based on Hagerty video, the 392 is more of muscle type off-roader. No replacement for displacement.

Modern vehicles cannot just get assembled at another factory. It takes tons of time and money to retrofit a modern assembly line for a new or different build.

Long term, Ford can't just drop oodles of money to refit a different factory to build more Mavericks and Broncos.

Plus, ALL factories are not keeping up. Demand is high and the supply chain is effed up. GM even announced a week or two ago that their sales are down due to supply chain issues. You can't build more vehicles if you don't have more parts.

I know, right? Why Ford doesn't shut down production on their other models, spend tens of millions and several months retooling other assembly lines to fit Bronco, re-direct a constrained supply chain, retrain hundreds of employees and make computer chips fall from the sky is beyond me.

Edit. RBF beat me to it.

Correct but they can use factories to build parts, to not depend on Suppliers. Take a page out of Hyundai's book. They are the only manufacturer with in house steel refinery. Why not build more parts in house, why is Ford and other OEM manufacturers depending on suppliers?

If Jeep can build tons of wranglers in ohio for Domestic & export market, no reason why ford can't do the same. This excuse of suppliers, chips is getting old. They do not want to reinvest money back into factories. Prefer to outsource to Mexico to make more $$. Spending millions to invest into a products they can't keep up with demand, in terms of business decision is not a bad idea. By forcing people to wait, its human nature that people eventually move on.

Did Jeep retool a RAM factory or a Renegage line to build more Wranglers.

I thought your original comment said that Ford should just use their other factories to build more Broncos and Mavericks. Which vehicles do you want Ford to stop producing? They have already stopped making most of their cars.

Ford could build more Mavericks in the Hermosillo factory, but they would have to stop building Bronco Sports and spend millions to retool the Sport line to make Mavericks.

Ford could build more Broncos at MAP, but again, they would have to stop building Rangers and retool the Ranger line.

I know you are sick of hearing about chip shortages. We all are. But this is our current reality. The global supply chain is completed hosed. GM just released a statement a few weeks ago that they are in this same conundrum. No parts.

Except it’s not the steel parts they are short.

Maybe they could make steel computer chips

i mean look at Tesla they are kee—- wait no they arent

soI’ll say it again
Time to order another 392. That’s what I would do if I were you

no bronco compares to it except the raptor and if it’s bronco or 392, you aren’t ordering a raptor anytime soon

That isn’t how it works. You don’t just bring a factory online to build an entirely different model.

 

[Tryingtogetabronco]

Just trying to get into Bronco community. Ford clearly underestimated demand.

I will eventually get a bronco. Just this reminds me of the days of my family back in USSR. Where you had to overpay and wait many years to get a car. Not great vibes.
