Thanks Zach! It was great talking with you the other day! You made building and ordering my bronco easy! (And even talked me in to the 2.3L engine! Ha!) looking forward to coming up from GA and meeting in person, hopefully this year!

Thanks a million to the entire Granger team - can't wait for my turn (October guy here)!

I'm a Grang-tober buyer. So, what is better for allocation purposes for you all? I have a 2021 build that I'd be happy with but there are options in 2022 that I'd prefer. It's somewhere between a slim and none chance that I end up with a MY21. But....is it better to go ahead and convert then update to MY22 options or to just defer to MY22?

From what they’ve said, if you want a slim chance at a 21 , then order. If you don’t get 21 then you’ll get to re-order with MY22 options
If you only want MY22 then wait.

An October reservation at a dealer with a large amount of reservations won't get a MY21.

@Zach@Granger and @Granger Ford , I would like to simply point out how valuable these short update threads are every couple days.

As a 7/16 reservation holder, it has helped me gage when I think you guys will be ready for me

Also - the general feedback and insight on your process as you progress is immensely satisfying to read.

I recommend you keep up the occasional updates if you can!

It doesn't hurt to put the order in. It doesn't make a difference to us. But I've built around 40 broncos so far none being a soft top, so I'm starting to think someone with an October reservation with a soft top, 2.3 and big bend will probably be built first out of everyone. ?

But just think of all the advances that will be made beforehand, you know, like - like - like - WARTHOG!

Thanks for the update! Please keep us informed in the future as you have so far. Your updates are very helpful to us.

I’m going to change my build one last time before ordering, and I’d like to make sure that I get it to you before you get to the late September res’s.

Ladies and gentlemen,

I want to thank you once again for your support and patience. We continue to work through orders and are calling and emailing daily. Just to give everyone an idea, we have 3 People calling, following up, emailing and building the Broncos. I think we're learning things and getting more efficient as the time goes on. We've split up and Albert is taking the Western part of the United States, Brandon the Midwest and Myself the Eastern part of the U.S.

I am still working through reservations on the 13th-14th and should have contacted or attempted to everyone through the 15th of January by tomorrow is my goal. From that point forward the days should progress quickly for me as the reservation count daily greatly declines.

Amidst this we're also fielding calls from reservation holders from other stores who are potentially switching stores.

A few notes

1. I can't say this enough, but I've been overwhelmed by the graciousness of everyone. I have yet to have a bad interaction with one of our reservation holders. You all are awesome!

2. Sasquatch, 2.7, and Lux are having a very high take rate. I've heard the comment multiple times that, "I've waited this long, I don't need to be first, I want what I want to get" I'm not sure that this means much, just thought it was interesting. This may lead to the potential of an earlier pickup for someone who is not seeking those items on their reservation.

3. We don't know your exact "number" in our reservation line. We're going to do our best to tell you where you fall in a relative sense and set realistic expectations. But as I've explained to some on the phone. It's a moving target. Between cancellations, reservation transfers, early reservation holders who are waiting for a 22 MY and customers who we've yet to make contact with, it's a moving target. Plus we've split it up amongst 3 to call and order, so we all are managing this through the process and don't know exactly what conversations the other person has had.

4. Your PDF of your builds you've sent in are extremely helpful! That's help expedite the process tremendously and allowed us to do some homework before we can get in contact.

Thanks again for your patience and this has been a ton of fun. I'm available via DM, phone and email.

Thanks ?

Zach

Thanks Zach. As an October 2 reservation in the East, I'll look forward to our conversation probably in February. Really appreciate the updates....just your staying in touch with all of us who haven't yet ordered helps us stay patient and plugged in. Thanks so much!

Cool. Cool. I didn't know if there was any effect at all on the allocation formula between trying for a 21 even with the non-existent odds or waiting.
