2021 Bronco NOT Eligible For X-Plan (Official Document Confirmation) [Update: Confirmed by Ford]

[Bronc-O]

Eh....not swaying me either way on buying it.

Not swaying me on ordering at least. Depends what my dealer will offer at the table if I buy it. I have a feeling this is one more way dealers will get Bronco's on their lots.

#metoo ! If prices aren’t competitive with Jeep when B&P comes out I’m just going Jeep. At least the plastics match

This will be the final straw for many reservation holders that are buying on a tight budget. Others will add fewer options to make things work. I don't see how this works in Ford's favor?

And taking it one step further, if people cut out accessories to save money, Ford's third-party partners get screwed, too.

Ford just announced today that reservations have dropped from 165,000 to 65,000 after the Official Document that the Bronco is NOT Eligible X-Plan. LOL! ?

Time to start looking at alternatives. My last 4 cars have been brand new Fords, and my wife's last one was a 2016 Focus, which - with all it's horrible transmission problems, had me hesitant on Ford, but I figured it was a fluke and with the new Bronco, it got me excited enough to stay with them. I've had my reservation since Mid July, and have been thoroughly enjoying the excitement, anticipation, camaraderie and everything else about this process - but there have been some dropped balls - lack of clear communication from Ford, delays in the Build and Price, etc- and this one might just be the final straw. and not just from a Bronco standpoint - but from a customer loyalty standpoint - they see the community that's being build around this Bronco - and instead of trying to encourage it and make it part of what's great about the Bronco brand, they're seeing it as "oh yeah, they REALLY want this truck.. if we take away X-plan, they're still gonna spend their money on it because they're hooked"... no .. .screw you, Ford. You may have just driven me away as a customer forever. Tacoma's are looking pretty good right now.

I can confirm the same. Logging into the Ford Partner website and that particular document does NOT mention the Bronco as of a few mins ago.

The wording in the doc shared in the OP is a bit weird too. Why would they specifically state in the bulleted item for the Bronco that it is "ineligible for X-plan..." when duh, this is an ineligible document and no other products restate they are "ineligible"? Seems Photoshopped to me.

I certainly cannot fathom cancelling an order based on this type of rumor. I guess if you do, you were never going to buy anyway.

Me dont want a Bronco sport...
Ill just cut out things off the Bronco at purchase time.

 

[Bronc-O]

I know this is a Ford form and I have no ill towards them

But can anyone justify to me not being able to get a better deal on a Wrangler at this point?

I have been holding out for one for a while but LOVED the Bronco but at this point, with this news, aren't I simply going to get a better %off with Jeep?

Jeep is sure to benefit at least a little bit by this news.
