Ok Ford..... removed hardtop and tow pkg with a 7/29 reservation. No more excuse, please build it tomorrow lol

I am not doing a soft top, but I did ask my dealer 2 days ago to remove the tow package, and he told me that Ford had asked them not to change their orders.

The pessimistic part of me says he is just being lazy and doesn't want to worry with it, as I've heard of dozens who have changed their order. The optimistic part of me says maybe he knows something I don't know and won't reveal, like my build has been scheduled and I will find out soon. (He did say be patient b/c I'm not far down the line.) Which part of me do you think is right?

I would lean towards your pessimistic side lol. Judging by the fact Ford has put out two letters urging dealers to have customers change their orders if they want it sooner. Sounds like he made an excuse to not mess with it but again no one really knows lol. Just a roll of the dice at this point

Agreed. I just removed my tow package and immediately got an updated order email from my dealer with the confirmed order and options. Probably going to change my color for a third time, too. Just saw an Area 51 Bronco Sport in person and it was a bit underwhelming. I can't decide on anything ever though, so I'm sure I'll love whatever color I end up with.

Wow I wish I got an email saying my order was updated by the dealer. I emailed my salesman or “bronco specialist” to confirm he received my changes and made them. His reply was “I did” 😡😳

I don't know what that is, but having the fuel fill on the passenger side would drive me absolutely nuts. I HATE when they do that.
have had 2 subaru's a 18 Crosstrek and now a 20 WRX, yes it is very annoying, ive left gas stations and went home without gas cause i pull up on the wrong side and it hits my mood just right.

also its an impreza hatch or i think they call it the sport now.

Y’all cancel your reservations so I can get mine the way I want it first.
Probably wouldn't matter because the dealer would just convert the canceled order to dealer stock so you won't move up in the line

Ah yes, the cursed Bronco sport a51. Once you see it in person, it has you reassessing the entire color.

I switched away from a51 after seeing one to a "safer" color. But I'm pretty sure the big Bronco carries the a51 better than the sport tries to

What did you switch to? I'm tempted to go back to Cyber Orange or Velocity Blue.

I ordered out of Toronto Ontario, Canada. North just not east.
Like you, I heard Canadian content broncos will be delayed.
Not so. I received my VIN two Thursdays before last. Alberta.

Tried and true 3.6 with manual trans. I plan to keep this a long time.
Ah the manual...I want an auto and have 0 interest in "eTorque" which would force me to either the Diesel ($$) or the 4 banger.
