I just spoke with my dealer! I have an excellent dealer and trust them! They are very communicative.

They just said Ford decided NOT to schedule Broncos this week. He said they didn’t give a reason.

But what I think (my opinion only) by the information posted since last week is that they have blew thru the commodities they had on hand already for the VIP Builds I think some VIPs may even be impacted!

No, no, no....don’t be patient! Be mad as hell and not going to take it any more [insert GIF here, if I knew how]....cancel your reservation! That’ll show em.

Might help me move up the queue too.

My uncle just got his VIN for his $75,000 Jeep 392 😐 Guess he is going to beat me getting his first.

In 2027 we will have another goat mode ,hover.
The only GOAT mode I want is "Gets One Allocated Today".

... or not... the delay is leading to cross-shopping. I'll be happy one way or another.

All of the panic over getting a VIN is hilarious. It's not like you've been waiting for 6 months to get a loaf of bread. There is nothing urgent about buying a Bronco. Making the veins in your forehead pop out will not make your Bronco appear any sooner.

So here is my "nightmare scenario" for what I thought was a reasonably safe reservation (first 3 hours on 7/13 and well within dealer's allocation volume).

It doesn't really matter. And what I mean by that is not that there won't be many others who get Bronco's before me who have later dates (mostly due to commodity issues). I mean that it is entirely possible that the dealer runs through their entire allocation number with builds for people who were FAR down the line in reservation order (because the commodity gods lined up for them) and a whole lot of early folks who were "inside the allocation window" will be left out because the dealer hit their number because Ford built stuff they could build, regardless of date.

I don't know that there is any other way to view this - there is not really any other way for them to manage through it given the constraints, and the dealers get what is previewed to them, regardless of how they set build priority on the orders. This is just really starting to sink in that I could be looking at a '22 and I totally did not expect that. Other than potentially getting a green Bronco, that will be quite disappointing from my prior expectations.

I was wondering what in the hell “Clean up” weeks 3&4 were in relation to emails and build schedule Ford released. Now it’s so clear......Thursday, apparently is just like Wednesday, or Friday or any other day of the week when nothing happens regarding Bronco emails or build schedule notifications. It’s a good thing Ford has allotted 2 consecutive weeks for such impactful communication.
