2021 Bronco delivery now "targeted to begin June 2021" and possibly into 2022

[Dirt]

I'm in for the Bronco as a toy, but I completely understand why people would be frustrated if this was planned to be their daily driver. A year is still a long ways and I'd anticipate more changes to the plan along the way.

Aren't you going to miss you Rangers Bed?

I've had an Explorer, Escape, F-150, and Ranger. Don't get me wrong, when you need a truck bed, nothing comes close to supplementing unless it's, well, a truck bed. But those times where I've absolutely NEEDED a truck bed aren't super common. Sure they happen but my vehicle isn't a work truck and I have no problem tossing anything that fits into the trunk area of a Bronco, especially when you can just hose it out.

I'm prioritizing roof & doors off driving in NC 8+ months of the year over the 1-2 times a year I truly needed that truck bed.

I just turned mine in and save the monthly payment I was making in my "down payment" fund. It's like my own personal "Go Fund Me" account.

lol solid strategy except I need SOMETHING to drive!

It’s all been said already but I’m totally cool with this, I’m gonna be able to ensure I can afford the exact truck I want if they add 6 months to the delivery date.

I also have a strong suspicion that once December comes around and all these reservations need to turn into actual non-refundable orders, that crazy high number will be cut down drastically.

This is the first news about the Bronco that has put me in the flip out crowd. You can't have that much hype around something and then delay it that much. This will hurt their reservation to order conversion greatly. Eagerness is a huge thing in a sales process and they are about to lose that from a ton of potential buyers.

The Bronco will be a toy. If something were to happen to my Escape, I'd lease a Crosstrek and buy a Bronco at the end of the lease. Every extra month of waiting = more money in the Bronco bank account.

I think this is a CYA situation. With Covid, it's not easy to predict what's going to happen even a month from now. I think Ford is playing it safe.

I also work in manufacturing. Right now, our supply chain has issues but it has gotten better. Workforce is a bigger issue right now. When you have large amounts of employees leaving for 2 week quarantine, productions slows down.

I have a 2019 F350 so it was an easy decision for me.

I just hope the FE are the first 7000 off the assembly lines....otherwise what is the point?

 

[eBronco]

I did that with my last Porsche, the sniping never ends on that....hence I will be getting an auto on the Bronco

My wife can drive a manual, so I am all set. Now if Ford would cooperate and not make real drivers second class citizens, I would be in great shape.

So this is posted on the Ford website now for the Bronco. This seems to answer a few questions I’ve seen in here somewhere.

“Deliveries are targeted to begin in June 2021.”

“Deliveries may extend in to the 2022 calendar year.” Oh boy........

Who here will wait until 2022 for a Bronco?

I can wait.... No problem

A: every 21 is now a custom order and instant collector.

B: more time to save up a bigger down payment

C: more time to make sure I am without a doubt teir 1 with FMC to get the low intetest rate and 84 month terms so I can fit more goodies in the budget.

sounds like we will be seeing new electric Hummer's before getting the Bronco....

And the Rivian. Maybe even the Cybertruck at this rate.
