Don’t look for sympathy here….I reserved 18 months before you ordered. Ordered 11 months before you, reordered 3 months before you……crickets.
I, myself, didn't take his post as asking for sympathy. What I saw was someone wanting to verify how many more chances they get before being bumped to MY23. And I'd say he has a fair chance of being built as a MY22. I ordered the same build as his AFTER he did, except my engine is the 2.7L, and I already have a VIN. It's not his fault that others have waited longer. This isn't a contest, and we're all on the same side here.
What I'm hoping for!!
Nope!!
I always felt that buying a hardtop after the fact would be too expensive. Better to get what you want and wait. But now that the wait gets longer and longer…I’m debating it myself if I’d settle for a soft too come this September when order banks open again. Now I’m even entertaining a Base Bronco but I really really want the hardtop.
I’m not dropping anything. BYW, I like your forum handle. I had a Merkur XR4ti and a Merkur Scorpio. Nice cars, too bad Ford blew it, tried to sell the Merkur line through Lincoln dealers. Bad idea.
I wouldn't want a Bronco without the Lux package, mostly because the adaptive cruise control - but I am also going to try to get lane centering working tomorrow.What do y’all think of the Lux constraint? (See attached for spec refresher) I’m only really in for the built-in garage door opener. Adaptive cruise control is my #2 want, nice - but not worth a wait, USB-C #3, wireless charger #4, sound system upgrade #5. I hope they drop nav for ‘23. It seems that nav by Carplay is a no brainer. I wonder where in that list is the real constraint.
You need to drive around more, while the majority will be soft tops, I see plenty of hard tops too.
The hard tops are starting to get out there. Went yesterday to a dealer in San Diego who had 4 Bronco's on hand, all hard tops, 2 2-door and 2 4-door, though they were all $20k over list or higher.

A lot of the builds scheduled (mine included) for 9/12 are fully loaded BL and WT....hardtop, lux, etc..even some tow packages. I dropped tow in March but it's still showing up on the backdoor, which I thought hadn't updated. I pulled up the order tracker using VIN last night and tow is on that too.What do y’all think of the Lux constraint?
