Dunlop Ford in Lethbridge, Alberta always been fair, open and a pleasure. Helps that Iāve always been enthusiastic and excited to share things from my Bronco6G obsession :)
My Big Bend 2dr that has been āIn Productionā since 01/25/22 finally ticked over to āShippedā. Official tracker says will be here between July 7-13! Finally!
The recent Live Video from Bronco Nation with Esteban had very few answers but he did indicate that although theyāve caught up on the Ver 1.0 top replacements, the pace of production of āgoodā tops is still slow enough that it will slow pace of production.
I will add to the No Emails from Ford, Ya Canuck. Placed my order Nov 2. Got a VIN about 2wks later. Original build date Jan 10th, pushed to Jan 22nd but Ford Tracker says in production. All my info has been through dealer.
July 14, 2020 Reso
Nov 2, 2021 Order
Dealer keeps telling me Jan 10, 2022 build week but no other communication
Eruption Green 2DR Big Bend with Sandstone Interior, 2.3L, 7MT, Rear Locker, Tow Package, Roof Rails, Aux Switches, Mud Flaps, Keypad, Tailgate Table.
Lucky you got an email. Ford Canada hasnāt sent squat. My dealer tells me I also have a Jan 10th build date. Also gave me my VIN. Hoping that means wonāt move.
Ford Canada hasnāt sent me a single email. I converted my July 14, 2020 reso to an order November 2, 2021. Last week my dealer messaged me I have a January 10th Build week. Today gave me my VIN#. Ordered a Big Bend 2DR, Eruption Green, 7MT and tow package. The hype is coming back!
I liked Area 51 in renders/pictures and itās a nice colour in person. Cactus Grey has really grown on me the more I see in person. Iām rolling the dice of Eruption Green. For myself, Antimatter Blue changed my whole plan. Loved the idea of it from the renders on the MY21 Build & Price and photos...
I get the impression the Heritage whatever will not be a package to be added. I assume itāll be another āEditionā like the First Edition. Maybe Iām wrong. Hope I am. Makes too much sense to me if it was an appearance package therefore Ford isnāt going to do that.
As the roll between reveal and production progressed, Fordās decisions on options slowed my hype. Ford does modern takes on retro/heritage better than most and I was hoping for that. When word came out that painted tops and green colour would be MY22, I was disappointed but willing to wait...
