Hello All,

I have had a 2-door BD on order for awhile now, but my heart has been with a base Base from the beginning. However, I like quite a few features the Black Diamond offers. I know no one can really answer this, but maybe people with some insight on the matter….

Is Ford building more higher trims? Well, I guess I’m asking, will switching to a base Base prolong my wait?
They build whatever they have parts for.

You think at some point hard tops can start to get made faster and Ford can catch up on two door reservations but right now I think they only make about ten hard tops a day .

Sadly, the insider knowledge on hardtop production has dried up around here. So it's mostly a guessing game, and wishful thinking about a second Webasto factory coming online.

I get the sense v2 hardtops still have issues, Ford hasn't solved the production line hurdles that cause reduced output, and this will negatively impact 2-door output for quite a while. Man if only Ford offered a soft top option to get 2-doors out the door. :(

I don’t know why they don’t.

2 doors are rare. Unless your a very early res holder, you will be waiting a very long time.
I was early res holder, still waiting for delivery of my 2dr base. Says it’s been built and shipped tho 🥳

Kind of like the joke about my Bronco build...

"I wanted a 2-door hardtop, big engine, sasquatch Bronco... Ford said 'we can deliver exactly that, except four door, soft top, small engine, and no sasquatch...'"
