6/30 blend dates

[Contact]

A dealer in Austin has several ordered ( all OBs) with various "in production" dates. There's a couple around 07/01 that have been shipped, but a couple before them that are still in production. So, go figure on what's going on.

Fellow 6/30 blenders!

Do you think we’d be better off creating a new reservation?
Would we get it before our 6/30?

that thought has legitimately crossed my mind

Does anyone think this is indicative of there being problems with the hardtops if Ford is extending & encouraging the date to convert your order to a soft-top? Looks like it may be the hardtop issue holding up our orders like some have speculated...

Late to the party here, but I have a blend date of 6/29, the window sticker says 7/15 at the bottom.
2 door Base squatch, 2.7
Does this mean my Bronco is sitting in the parking lot with a "bad roof" tag?

Ford sent us (Dealership Bronco Specialists) an email today detailing this extension to July 23rd for the Soft Top w/ Prep Kit. Outside of that information, the email didn't have much else in it. I am not sure if Ford will ever detail how bad this MIC top issue is, but all the information that we currently have points to the MIC top causing delays.

That sticker is now showing 7/15/2021. I think we can safely disregard that date now.

Weird, shows 7/10 for me.

Doesn’t help with my 2 dr.

This really is painful. I already sold my Yukon Denali.

I think Ford needs to do more than offer the tidbit of a kit. Free install plus a huge discount off the MIC top when available plus no shipping. But, this will never happen. It's all about the bottom line. They could care less about the consumer. Talk the consumer into taking less so they can sell more. I wish we all said fix this crap and no go, no compromise, we want what we ordered.

What's probably going to happen is Ford is going to forgo manufacturing our orders and make the Broncos with the parts they have and talk the dealers into getting them for sell on their lots. And, they will sell.

Same. It’s impossible to get my rail car number. I think the first wave of Bronco buyers wore out the Bronco hotline and dealers. But my est. delivery updated yesterday on the tracker from 8/8-8/16 to 7/19-7/25, so I’m not bugging them anymore. Shipped 7/7 to San Diego. 7/2 build.

I've got a blend date of 7/1, but the number on the bottom of my window sticker has changed 3 times already, most recently to 7/15 as of today. I'm wondering why it's taken over 2 weeks of in production time and what the hold up is at this point

Just wanted to see how quick the process goes for those with a 6/30 blend date!

For you!

Is there some type of celebration when a thread starter gets their Bronco?

Maybe we should make a T-shirt?

Hope mine bumps up too - says 8/5-8/11 as of now!
