Can't give you an estimate because of "...our Achilles heel in this launch, the hardtop roofs. "

That was the dumbest mother-effing email I have ever read. Oh sorry, can't update you because we don't know when we're going to have enough hardtops. HEY DUMMY FORD....I didn't order a hardtop.

If the hard top is truly the main issue (Assuming the micro chip thing solved) give me the option to buy a soft up now and why youā€™re my vehicle for a heart out for the future. Iā€™ll buy a hard top later.

Not saying I will definitely walk, but I will be looking to see whatā€™s out there and may get into something else if I donā€™t have a Bronco by next summer.

So...the email just says nothing? The hardtops are a problem and we don't know when it'll get sorted out?
Pretty much. I just got my email, which is identical to what someone posted would be sent. I changed mine to a soft top last week in hopes of getting it. I did not remove the towing as I need it and donā€™t know how long before aftermarket is available. Might change my mind about waiting on towing, but they donā€™t specifically mention that in this email.

I am going to wait it out a bit longer but if it becomes apparent it is not going to be this year I am out. If it was not going to be my primary vehicle it might be different. I also have trips I want to take off road, so it might be a jeep for me.

I would consider getting a used jeep and selling it when the bronco is available but the used market right now is crazy.

Two predicaments. Like an idiot I put down an extra deposit beyond the $100 bucks which many of you on here tells me is non-refundable. Even if if I wanted to seek another car, cars right now are stupid $$ and more then what their worth because of the commodity and stock issue. Iā€™m maybe leaning to revise my order and switch it for a new Raptor when they become available. Or just wait what seems like forever.

While I understand an eagerness, to me some people are draining my fun by being impatient and complaining. I have a leased vehicle so I need SOMETHING by May 1st of 2021 but the Bronco will be fine by then. Smile y'all. šŸŒž

My lease is up in November and I expected it to be close, but I donā€™t believe itā€™ll be here in time. I ordered a Gladiator Mojave today, Iā€™d rather get something now and enjoy the summer than have an open ended delivery date and potential overlap issues.

Nor do I want one with my 2 door.

It has absolutely nothing to do about need, or vehicle replacement in my case. It is a pure toy. However, a 2021 Mach 1 also fits the toy description. My F150 4x4 will accomplish everything I need the Bronco to do. I have been a MY22 as an August reservation. I have been told, ā€œ you will get your Bronco in late Octoberā€. Then it was, ā€œ after the end of the yearā€. As of today, who knows. I have voiced my extreme displeasure concerning the Bronco, to Ford via letter. I am waiting it out, but I wonā€™t be surprised if my dealer contacts me ,and letā€™s me know an ordered Bronco has arrived and the buyer isnā€™t following through, or a FE used, will be available once the buyer of one of those realizes they canā€™t afford it.

How do we know da_jokker is not really Mike Levine trying to figure out what he can get away with this afternoon? After all, his username would be appropriate. :)
P.S. Mike - git er done sir!
Oh believe me if I was, this would all be a moot point cuz bet your ass I'd have a Priority golden ticket!

I really was hoping for some better estimates. If it's 6 months, I'll wait If it's another year, I have nothing right now to "play with" so I may be out because I'd have spent my Bronco Money on a Jeep with all it's flaws but the only alternative to the Bronco. (Doors and roof off)
