I don’t know how this timeline enables them to make close to 6K FE’s by year end.No. MIC hardtop production for unscheduled First Edition builds will resume late this year with the updated hardtop design. I wouldn't expect this until probably November, as the new tooling still needs to be completed, installed, and tested before production of the new hard tops can begin. Once that happens, they have committed to building new MIC hardtops for all units that have already been delivered, then the "bad batch" Broncos trapped at MAP, THEN for production of new units.
File this under "Posts that didn't age well".I’m just going to say I know for a fact that this is not true and therefore going to lock the thread. No need to freak people out more than needed.
Earlier in the week you said I should be good, when mentioning that my build date was 8/11.No. MIC hardtop production for unscheduled First Edition builds will resume late this year with the updated hardtop design. I wouldn't expect this until probably November, as the new tooling still needs to be completed, installed, and tested before production of the new hard tops can begin. Once that happens, they have committed to building new MIC hardtops for all units that have already been delivered, then the "bad batch" Broncos trapped at MAP, THEN for production of new units.
Whatever, if they plan to crush them, I would put it in a shed and save it.Paint isn’t going to help. Regardless of Ford’s attempt to classify this as a cosmetic/appearance issue, it is a design/manufacturing issue that affects the structural integrity of the roof. Look at pictures of the delamination.
I think having a blend date of Friday the 13th is right on brand for this entire relaunch, is it not?Wonder how this affects those of us with a FE with a blend date of tomorrow (coincidentally Friday the 13th).
Hey, you have every right to be a dick. This has been a mess.Ross.... 1st off... I'm really not trying to be a dick here... and I know you don't work for Ford... but with that out of the way...
That line above is what I've been saying for awhile now... Design was flawed? Well Ford should've known this 2 years ago.... at the very least 1 year ago! That's pathetic that here we are, 13+ months after reservations opened up, 2+ weeks after we got an email from Ford, telling us to stay pumped because Bronco is being built and delivered. Also throw in some of your posts about how "full production" begins August 1.
