Tesla and Elon are a bigger con than Maddoff!
Maybe not, not every dealership is full of a$$holesIâm on the fence too. Do I downgrade to an obx or something
and youâll pay $10 - $15 grand more
Conspiracy! FORD has thousands of the wannabe bronco sports sitting across the country they have to get sold. They know when the real bronco hits the streets they are screwed. They are simply buying time and dumping millions into marketing in order to get as many sports sold as possible. You thank me later for the education.Todays email.

What about current scheduled orders: We have been told by our zone managers that if you currently have a VIN you are OK and the hard top issue should NOT affect you. Of course, this is not in writing but has been verbally confirmed by at least 2 reps.
What about FEs that havenât been scheduled yet: Again, non-confirmed information is that a large chunk of these will be looked at next week when another round of scheduling happens. Not sure if it will be the balance of whatâs left or just a portion.
Am I screwed if Iâm a WT or 2 door: Neither the email nor associated FAQ address this question except for FE orders. There has been no information to say yes or no but several of us believe you may be hosed. I hope additional communication comes out to address this.
If I change tops will it get built: No, sort of. The FAQ plainly states you have a better chance of getting built if you have a 4 door, soft top and none of the restricted commodities. There is no guarantee changing these will get you built as dealer allocation and time stamp are still major factors.
Allocation: Ford states they intend to continue to schedule as many builds as they can within the production capacity and commodity constraints. We have heard they intend to fill dealer allocation numbers regardless if a customer walks away from the order or not. This could mean the dealer has a unit on the lot that they are free to sell. What it doesnât mean is there is some sort of dirty deal between Ford and the dealers. If we tell Ford a customer wants the vehicle, they are going to build and ship it. Customer decides not to take delivery itâs still our problem.
Production: Ford is going to build as many units as possible but is likely to miss the targets they set at the beginning. There are no figures available to say how far short of the target they will be as several factors have impacted this.
What happens if you donât get a â21: No information has been provided to us yet to answer this. We assume they will have 2 more rounds of scheduling to fill out the â21 model year. They may ask us to reconfirm â22 model orders and make changes as needed. Nothing has been communicated related to time stamps, however we assume they will try to build â22 models with consideration to commodity availability and time stamp.
They won't. I get the lack of communication and how that's frustrating but some of y'all act like children that scream and yell because you didn't leave the store with a toy.
I like it - combine it with Off-Roadeo and call it Webasteo.
Yeah... I also didnt get the email. I wonder what that means.I just hope that even though I didnât get the email that were still in the system lol! I even triple checked to see if our order was still open on Ford.com and not grayed out
