Would you rather them rush an pump out Broncos left and right and have all sorts of issues? Because I've been told by folks with sources and folks at the plant that they could have pushed through a lot faster to maintain the timeline at the risk of quality, but are instead taking extra precautions to focus on quality.
As painful as waiting is, I'd rather not end up with a Bronco that spends a lot of time in the service area of my dealership.

I'd be more impressed with your rant if you included your reservation date.
Oh good. The reservation elite/police are back. There's a reason I haven't/didn't reserve, but I'm also capable of viewing what's going on in an unfavorable lens. I'm going to be getting one, just not right away. That doesn't make me less of a person, thanks.

Is Ford going to Reduce the Price on the First Edition $1800? (Like they did the Wildtrak when they took away the MOD top)Or you just get $1000 dollars in points! Also no 2022 First Editions! Just when I thought Wildtrak was getting screwed worse!

I thought it already had been with the original "MIC is standard" announcement months ago?

I'm sure this has been asked 100 times but I haven't seen an answer...

What shade of "grey/black" are the fender flares and mirrors?

Are they MIC grey, are they Mod Black or are they something between and the argument is simply what looks best or closest?

I'm still trying to wrap my head around why Ford wouldn't make them all a single color, or offer the option (apparently in 2025 or whenever they get their shit together) for single color grey or single color black?

I have a 4 Dr FE LB ordered, asked for the black mod and soft, so im up shits creek with the current offerings.
I have a 4 Dr FE RR ordered with black mod and soft, so I feel your pain. I'm trying to figure out what is special about this FE anymore? Seriously thinking of a loaded badlands now, or just ditch the whole thing. Good luck.

I wonder if this is because they are completely changing the roof design to accommodate the new roof rails. :(
Can you expand on this? I haven't heard anything about a new roof design. What is that about and will the future roofs be compatible with the 2021 models?

It means the plastic pellets used to mold the part are all the desired color. The plastic is not painted.

In this case the colors selected is "Carbonized Gray"
Talk about reinventing the wheel.

I had three wranglers with hard tops, and I vaguely remember right behind the front doors would chip and be white on black. I was never too concerned but also would leave the top outside on wood planks sometimes bending all the way to the ground.

now they have garage hoists and stuff.

with the top two removable panels, I’m curious how many times the entire top will come off on a lot of buyers tops.

so for the TOP of a vehicle to cause So many issues and questions is so weird and such a Ford thing to me.

like a 2018 Harley v twin not holding oil... it’s not like they have been making them for 100 years, oh wait..

how has the Sport roll out seemingly not delayed? The dealerships around me all have a couple dozen.

where does Jeep get their hard tops?

certainly no expert here but the top doesn’t come off the sport. So this entire design didn’t have to happen there.

So when Jeep launched the JT, a lot of FEs ended up on dealer lots because reservation holders were able to get a hold of Rubicons earlier. This is probably because Jeep did simultaneous dealer inventory and customer order production at the same time.

I think Ford has now backed themselves (or been backed) into a corner where FE has questionable value, it won’t be first off the line due to commodity constraints, and it won’t have the luxury top, etc.
