  1. Ghost Orders - Dealers

    In Canada, day 2 reservation. Dealer had a $1k deposit since committed order. Defender arrives next week, I just simply couldn't wait in the dark anymore. Dealer straight up said they aren't going to cancel my order and has take a similar stance to others that have cancelled. Even more...
  2. Ford Cancelled My Reservation?

    I'm not sure what to think here.... I received notification from Ford both my reservations were cancelled and my money returned. My dealer says my order was successfully submitted, is clean, and waiting to be scheduled. I had a day 1 and day 7 reso. First one that got cancelled was my day 1...
  3. Outerbanks or Badlands: faster build?

    Think it would make a difference if I switched to a fully loaded Outerbanks vs. Badlands? I know the detachable swear bar isn't a commodity restraint...but who knows... MIC, 2.7, no tow package. Like most of you, I've been waiting for a year+ now...I wonder if it will come this year...
  4. Is my Dealer or Ford incompetent?

    The story goes like this: Placed first reso on day 2. Second redo 3 days later, after I thought I had made a mistake. Converted in Jan of this year. Found out recently my dealer converted the wrong reso, the later one, and my earlier one was cancelled. Told nothing anyone could do. Sure ok...
  5. I'm Done - What a Joke

    My original reservation - July 14th, 9AM. I then made another because I thought there was an error - July 17th. I went to the dealer and they told me they converted my July 14th. I find out today they converted the wrong time stamp. They said there is nothing they can do, Ford customer service -...
  6. Why you don't want a 2021

    Let me save you the trouble, standard responses: "ok ya cancel...so I can get my sooner" "give Ford a break" "here we go again" Everyone seems eager to get their Bronco, but maybe we should be careful what we ask for... Companies are notorious nowadays for pushing out half baked products...
  7. I'll paint my own dam top: MOD vs MIC

    So I've been doing a lot of research on how I can just paint an MIC top and say the hell with waiting. Few challenges: -The texture issue: spoke to some shops, it can be taken down, not an issue -Plastidip: sure, but that's no fun -The big one: apparently what makes painting these tops a...
  8. I'm happy for you...

    I'm excited, I'm happy, for all those that have waited - in many cases far long than me - and will soon receive their Broncos. I'm a modular hardtop hold out. Will likely be waiting until Q1-Q2 22. But, that's ok. Soon I'll be able to retire my 200k 2012 Wrangler and meet you all on the streets...
  9. I wonder: 2022 Model

    I ordered a Bronco with a black painted top. I've told I'll get a 2022 model year. But I wonder, what exactly does that mean, since many manufacturers start pushing out next year models in the fall/winter of a given year. Spring 2022, Summer, 2023? Now it appears Ford is struggling even with...
  10. 2022 Club: the painted top

    Today, I cried a little - after learning my order, which includes the modular painted hardtop, will be a 2022 model. Now, I'm not entirely sure whether that means an Oct, Nov, Or Spring 2022 order. Who knows. No one knows. Blabla. But, good things come to those that wait... I wanted to provide...
  11. Shit dealers say: episode 35920

    I asked my dealer yesterday if I could modify my build after the fact. I said I've read you can do so up until your vehicle is assigned a VIN. His response: builds are locked in after March 19th. Not changes.Any modifications will result in the order going to the back of the line... Truth or lie?
  12. First Scheduled Bronco Delivery

    Context: I'm in Vancouver, Canada. Spoke to my dealer this morning and they already have a build with a confirmed delivery date of mid May. 4 door, base, 6 speed. Customer order as per sales manager. They are starting to trickle in...
  13. Jeep is in trouble

    Look, these words aren't derived from new-found fanboy syndrome, but rather what I feel is pure logic. Jeep is in trouble. I'm currently a 2012 Jeep Wrangler owner and recently cancelled a 2020 Rubi diesel order. Why? Every each of the Bronco has been so well thought out, which is a stark...
  14. The great Sasq Mystery: rip-off or reasonable - BL

    This comment is mainly related to the ongoing debate about whether one should Sasq on Badlands or not - and what value doing so actually brings. I find Fords explanation of Sasq when adding to BL very deceiving. It says it adds high clearance fenders, SAS suspension, etc. But many of these it...
