Interesting. Any idea what the take rate was on the HE? I assume they are closing due to MOD top manufacturing limitations?

Not sure, they haven't released information on their capacity.

Did ordering for other trims already close? I kept hearing there was only a 24-hr. order window for the ‘23 MY…. Love your Tues. live chats, btw. Great work!

Surprised the take rate wasn't higher, thought I saw 4%. These truly will be a limited breed among the Bronco crowd.

when I submitted my heritage build to my dealer I received an email confirmation for an outer banks Tuesday morning. I called and they said they fixed it and that I’m #2 for that dealers allocation and sent me what I’m guessing is a DORA or WBDO printout and an out the door sheet of full price for my exact heritage build.

printout has my name, order code, sales code, priority 19. Is there any way to confirm my order was actually fixed because I don’t see an order number? Also if I’m #2 for allocation wouldn’t my priority code be less than 19?

No other trims are available except Base, Everglades, Heritage Limited Edition, and Raptor (technically Raptor can be put in but won't schedule until the dealer has Raptor allocation).

Like @RELEGATION BATTLE does the fact that the order banks stayed open longer than anticipated mean that Ford doesn't believe they are at capacity for other MY23 trims?

After just digging out of the mess they created - I cannot fathom them accepting orders for days only to tell people they aren't getting a MY23, with no rollover or price protection.

I want to be cautiously optimistic that my 4dr Black Diamond Mid Pkg soft top, priority 13, at a high volume dealer - stands a chance to be built this year - and the banks staying open only fuels that optimism.

I absolutely love how they are built and look. That retro style has been what I’ve been after this entire time since before the unveiling

Thanks Tim, thought I heard 2% from your last podcast, I know it was 4% for us initially. Would be awesome to know how many Ford is planning to build.

Thanks again for all you and Sarah do!

The DORA is a Dealer Order RECEIPT Acknowledge that is how your Bronco will be built once it gets scheduled. The WBDO print out is a preview and could be subject to change by the dealer after they print it out.

Not to be a downer but #2 on their list doesn't mean you will get scheduled 2nd. As I listed above the configuration is looked at before the timestamp.

I forgot that they did just release that this week from Ford's April scheduling information.

I can only speak on what I’ve experienced. But a local General manager told me this time around ford sent each dealer their expected allocation for the remainder of my23. And broke it down by constraint as to how many hardtops, 2 doors, Sasquatch etc orders the dealer could accept and expect to get built within the model year. Ford did NOT do this with the maverick, or bronco in the past which led to a 3.5 year mess. But it seems that they are trying to correct it, and the dealers I have spoken with say they aren’t accepting orders once their allocation has been met.

They look ridiculous (on the outside, the inside looks great!), but I understand the value proposition on sasquatch + mid package for less than a similar big bend. The problem is the same with the 2 door. Every 2 door owner (or HE) thinks they have a unicorn because there aren't many available, but the fact is there aren't many available because very few people want them so ford doesn't produce them in any decent numbers (4% for HE and 10% for 2 door). When you try to sell them your target market is going to be tiny. Now maybe in 30 years if you store it in a garage we can talk. It's the same with Manual. I'm a manual die hard (on sports cars), but the fact is you have to find the right person to sell your MT to. I feel this will be even harder with an SUV most will consider a daily driver.

I thought Base and Everglades weren’t available to order. Are they available as stock orders only then? Just curious. Went with a Heritage because the Everglades wasn’t available to order then fell in love with the HE
