Breaking news: January ordering, Summer delivery, Black First Edition interior, no manual Sasquatch & more

[splathead]

fuck, summer can mean august, which means if you don't get the first batch you are at least in september or october.

this sucks.

With Ford, summer means September 22, 2021.

Well, I'm out...tired of being part of this Cluster F..... I would be shocked now if anybody gets a bronco in 21...392 Wrangler Rubicon here I come...maybe in few years If they get there act together i will get one...

your action will speak louder than your post, so " Do it now" and cancel your res. Enjoy the Wrangler.

For those of us in the "wait for the hard top" camp. Whether you have an early reservation or not, this could mean our Broncos won't be coming until winter or calendar year 2022

Does it make you want to reconsider and just go with MIC? ?

They just gave Jeep a boost. Ford has delayed this vehicle for so long i begin to doubt their honesty about this Covid supplier problem.

Let em go to Jeep. Im a very impatient person but I cant understand people just jumping ship cause of a delay due to a global pandemic that is affecting suppliers. Im sure there are some people out there that would just like to have a job to be able to pay for a Bronco. There are worldwide delays for everything right now. Have you shopped for tires lately?

Been patient this long...and I figured Covid would worm its way into these plans somehow, so no great surprise. The longer I wait, the bigger the down-payment...wait long enough and I can pay cash up front.

I'm sorta curious what percentage of First Editions will be ordered with Navy Pier vs Black interior.

This is the chance!! FORD PAIR THE 2.7L TO THE 7 SPEED!!

They're not going to get that settled in 6 weeks. The bellhousing pattern on the 2.3L is different than the 2.7L. The 7-speed, from what has been posted here, does not have a separate scattershield. It's a several months at the minimum problem to get a new casting made, new parts designed to handle the higher torque, everything tested, then retested and certified. It could take a year, two or never happen if they can't make the business case for it.

Got sidetracked with the big info, but rereading I just noticed this:

1. Customer places order and agree to selling price with dealer between mid-January through March 19, 2021. Note: Bronco will not have online order conversions and will require dealers to place order

So with no order conversions, each one will be a fresh order, not tied to your reservation directly, so this confirms what they told us in September where the dealer will be doing the priority of the orders, not Ford.

Kind of figured this was a possible situation. No bid deal...just that I have more time to hit my down payment target that I was already comfortable in hitting.

I reserved within 2hrs of the reveal July 13th so I just hope I can take delivery before I go to CO in early Sept.

So, '21 1/2 Bronco

more time to save, unfortunately my Mustang may not make it that far, cutting into that stockpile... I just hope I don't need to buy a beater as a stopgap ?

 

[Prkelly]

well on the bright side , they might have the Build and Price fixed by then

The right attitude

Vigor. Thanks for support. Like I say, during this truly historic year, if all we have to worry about, thank God, is delivery. I am beyond thankful.

 

[Bronc-O]

honestly, if they added all black to the wild track, it'd be such an easy choice.

Now that they have it, I don't see why it can't be offered on all trims? The seats are all the same, so just install what the customer picks.

i'm not saying this is my proudest moment... but it's top 3 and i'm married w/ two kids

So is the dud the wife and a kid or both kids?
