That would be the right way, but, come on... you know better. It means less than it should.Reservation dates still better fucking mean something!

Update 7/30:
Some notes:
- The 550 per shift total production target doesn't mean they'll be producing that many every available day from now thru December. We aren't going to see 65,000(or 55,000, or even 45,000) MY21 Broncos... and if we did there would be a HUGE number of soft top stock units heading out. There could be as many as 3 more weeks of downtime scheduled before the end of the MY21 run, along with balance adjustments and slowdowns to deal with commodity issues.Misalignment of the top when installed or abend in the framing after installation.
No direct connection to MAP, just a well-sourced guy.
- MAP has been clearing the traced units backlog this week so I have to believe some of you will be seeing your trucks soon. I wouldn't expect the tracker to update in this situation but your dealer will get a pre-delivery notice.
- Looks like we're getting closer to a resolution on the MIC roof issues. That's all I can say.
What a time to be alive, right?
As many owners anxiously await word on their "traced" units produced a month (or more) ago,

Misalignment of the top when installed or abend in the framing after installation.
Two per day with Saturdays coming online earlier than expected.
I was told to expect normal scheduling to begin next week, but that was 2 weeks ago and the situation still seems fluid.
Looks like you guys had a great time! Glad you are enjoying it so far.LOTS of questions here, I'm sorry that I can't get to all of them.

Finally, my son (who is 9!) and I popped the clamshell off for the first time today. Super easy process. Then we went out and had some fun.
Can you indicate whether you’re talking about resolution for newly assembled Broncos, ones that have already been delivered, or both?Looks like we're getting closer to a resolution on the MIC roof issues. That's all I can say.
Can’t see Webasto suddenly being able to churn out quality mic tops at the quantity needed to catch up so I’m betting this could be a soft top solution.Can you indicate whether you’re talking about resolution for newly assembled Broncos, ones that have already been delivered, or both?
I can't say I disagree with you. As long as i get my hardtop later, slap the soft top on for now and ship it out.Can’t see Webasto suddenly being able to churn out quality mic tops at the quantity needed to catch up so I’m betting this could be a soft top solution.
plus this:- The 550 per shift total production target doesn't mean they'll be producing that many every available day from now thru December. We aren't going to see 65,000(or 55,000, or even 45,000) MY21 Broncos... and if we did there would be a HUGE number of soft top stock units heading out.
to equal some harsh reality that will have most MIC orders (except FEs) rolling into 2022 for some revised MIC.- Looks like we're getting closer to a resolution on the MIC roof issues. That's all I can say.
Ross did indicate a resolution may at hand,Can’t see Webasto suddenly being able to churn out quality mic tops at the quantity needed to catch up so I’m betting this could be a soft top solution.
Hard top MY21 going to be a rarity spoken of only in hushed whispers.Update 7/30:

This has been asked and answered, in this thread, many times already, please read the thread. (hint, no he does not work for Ford).Hey premier guy?
Do you work for Ford or something?
You and everyone else has a question for @PREMiERdrum, please be respectful of his time, he has been asked hundreds of questions and of course he cannot answer everyone of them (and please don't send him so many PM's). We should all be happy when he is able to post the information he can.Hey premier guy?
I have a question maybe you can answer because my dealer seems to say something different of course!
Ross's mom made an account. That's nice.This has been asked and answered, in this thread, many times already, please read the thread. (hint, no he does not work for Ford).

Everyone, Please stop bombarding him with so many questions as I fear this may run him off, as other past friends of the forum, will insight and information, have before him.
