If the soft top thing turns out to be true (not calling your dealer a liar, just waiting on more confirmation), that tells me the only way I'll see a new car before October is to not buy a Ford. I need to call my dealer next week and then maybe either move to a 99 while I shop around, or just cancel. As I had suspected, this is much more about the hard tops than the chips. They might as well shift those chips to F-150 production since they won't be needing so many for the Broncos they're not building.
This is the snipped they sent me from the Ford Zone managers email to the dealer

"we were told that the scheduling computer was most definitely hunting for soft tops / will be 80% of July production"

These comments always remind me of the movie "Men in Black".
The following is exactly why Ford stays mum, and I do not blame even though it still frustrates me from time to time. The last four words are important also...."and we know it."

From "Men in Black":
Kay : A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it."

The rest of the qoute...
" Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet."
Big difference between world changing humankind event with aliens and just a freaking bronco 😅

Crap..... working to button up couple items on my ‘74 Explorer before I sold it to pick up my Badlands but I guess I have some time to do that. Oh well, summer’s coming and it’s topless time in GA for the ‘74!

I’m a day one reservation and haven’t gotten a build date. Luck of the draw I guess. So much for Ford following the time stamps.
I'm also a day 1, 9:03pm Central, reservation and have heard nothing.

Why doesn't Ford send the MAP employees 1/2 mile over to the Webasto plant and start cranking out MIC tops?

Yes, I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night...

Did you get an email from Ford letting you know about the build week change?
I did not. But my dealer was able to look at it in the system. He said the printouts yesterday afternoon still said June 7, but it must have updated sometime in the night. By 11 today it said June 28.

Similar to Team Member giveaway drawings I am coming up with a big goose egg for a production date assignment. Brownells did this!
