No clarity is because there is none. 78,000 unfilled reservations PLUS dealer inventory = a Lot of tough luck suckers. Even if oversold dealer get extra allocations anyone more than 1/2 way back in the line is S-O-L.
78K may be A LOT! but Ford is committing all efforts to Retail allocations.

Yes and no. Most people that are left are at $2k below invoice which is still going to be a hell of 'a deal in 2024. You do loose the PP, which is entirely Ford's fault, but probably way better than any other deal you can get in 2024.

Based on this update, i wouldn't change my build at all, unless i had lux, i don't use that

This just doesn't sound like a bad deal, or even bad news, or even different news.
Sounds like an opportunity for those that do it

They are combining current PP and this $2500 offer if you choose to remove options.
If the only constraint (of these three) that someone has on his order is Lux, then dropping that for $2500, plus the price difference between Lux and High seems a no-brainer to me.

But honestly I don't understand why people are so hung up on the Lux package. I detest adaptive cruise control, and I didn't even know heated steering wheels existed until I joined this forum.

Does removing the three constraints some how give you better priority? I think you can only move down to priority 10 by the dealer. I read in another thread that some people who made the change are now priority 2 and were previously priority 19.

I agree. High package still has the 12 inch screen and 360 camera. And costs $2200 less.
I wonder what part of the Lux package is causing the issue? I would automatically think the 12-in screen but obviously that's not it since the high package is okay.

Mitch does use some extreme wording sometimes lol. You are correct, they will still produce MIC,LUX and SAS pkg broncos as you mentioned they are not out of those parts. The amount they have compared to the need is lower. Ford is unable to commit to building 100% of the MIC/LUX/SAS orders that are currently unscheduled. Ford wants to build as many as they can, they want to give the customers every option to purchase a bronco this year. They are combining current PP and this $2500 offer if you choose to remove options.

All I can say is doing nothing, there is a risk you will not get your bronco and you will lose all PP and this offer. But you could end up still getting scheduled! It is a gamble! TALK to your dealership, they can give you advice on what to do! It will depend on what other orders are ahead of you and if they are for going these constrained options or not.

My 2dr Basesquatch been at the #1 position since the first round of ordering, back in 21, at my dealer. I was their first order.

Last year I had COVP confirmed by Ford and still did not get built. 🙄 Seems like everytime my dealers allocation comes up, Ford cannot build a 2dr.

I am now a PC of 2. I have absolutely no idea what to do. I can leave it alone and hope and pray. Drop the squatch and maybe get built. The squatch was the whole reason for me getting a Bronc.

Maybe just wait to see of I get lucky on Thurs.

I so don't know what the fuck to do.......

FWIW, "My dealer said" that they were told that order banks would re-open 3/27. She said she wasn't too confident in that, but again -- FWIW.

:) 🍻 :)

And she did re-iterate that they were also told -- no MIC, no SAS, no Wildtrak.

It's been said before, dealer priority codes are not being used for Broncos.

I'd bet on it being ACC or possible even B&O system. If it wasn't the only way to get heated steering wheel I could likely do without all the other stuff there.

If myself and all my fellow Granger customers get rid of the constraints, what has changed for us? Unless I missed something, we stay at the same place in the Granger line, with same allocation issue. Same situation with folks at other dealers with lower allocations. (In practice, maybe some folks don't change their order, so we move up a few spots in the dealer line, which might not matter.)

Although we are offered the $2500, we are no more likely to get a Bronco in 2023. Unless something else in the equation has change, that was not mentioned at the meeting? Such as Ford offering dealers additional 2023 allocations, to actually deliver the Broncos to people who get rid of the constraints?

Well, since I have a Badlands with a HT, may just drop my WT down to soft top if that 1 change is truly eligible to get the $2500 and then swap tops from BL to the WT If/when WT comes in.

Just posted on Bronco Nation's forums by DDM4. The constrained items that must ALL be removed are MIC Top, Lux Package and Sasquatch Package (in order for non-Wildtrak customers to receive $2500 and risk not being produced in 2023MY).

What if yours has been built but is stuck in chip hold purgatory? If I find a stock one for an amenable price can I get this credit to let go of the Bronco I allegedly have waiting at the plant?

0% chance.
