.Great to see Ford produced over 10,000 Broncos in November, especially considering the Thanksgiving holiday. I wonder what Ford's future production goal is for Bronco? For comparison, Jeep produced 27,002 Wrangler's in October, 2021. Jeep produced 260,488 units for the first 10 months of this year. Maybe Ford can ramp up to half of that? It'll be interesting going forward.
Roger..
that wont happen unless Ford dedicates a line to the Bronco.
That's why if my unit gets built in '22, I'll lease for 24 months. Better options ahead.So I'm a straggler with a 10/2021 order for a BD 2.7 MIC w/ mid & tow pkgs. I'm probably still looking at delivery in 2023-24. My consolation prize may be that if Ford decides to make a white metal hard top and/or a hybrid that year, I can convert.
Unless they are building models that not many folks ordered. Tons of 4d 2.3 soft top Big Bend 221As...How do you figure? They have built 43,000 in the past six months. You don't think they will build that at the very least, in the next six months. If they build just 50,000 in the next six months (not even 10k a month) for a total of 93,000 they will certainly be through the first two days.
Agreed. Ford screwed the pooch with the whole 'reservation'/dealer allocation model. Surprising that the MBAs who cooked up the scheme didn't have a clue as to what customer expectations and perceptions would be when they rolled out a 'first come first serve'-kinda (with a ton of caveats) system for a vehicle they couldn't build...This whole allocation to dealers is the most convoluted ordeal.
I was a late reservation, July 29, 2020. I have a VIN and build week of January 10.
Badlands, Sas, softtop, high pkg.
So how can mine get built before so many other people that are 1st or 2nd day reservations?
The whole dealer allocation is such a mess. Its unexplainable and unfortunate for the early reservation holders. Your reservation time stamp essentially means nothing at this point and is worthless.
At least that is how it seems.

My guess is you are off by 10 +/- years of schoolingSurprising that the MBAs who cooked up the scheme didn't have a clue
If I had to guess… Ford can not sell a vehicle with a defective airbag….Here is the number I would like to see. Bronco's BUILT vs SOLD. I have a Bronco sitting in some rail yard in TX since 11/21 without any idea of when it will be delivered to the dealership, and Im not the only one.
Wise guy!Don’t see what the problem is. I have my Bronco.
**runs and hides**
I have a vehicle built on 11/13 thus no airbag defects, but my Bronco sits in a rail yard just ready to be purchased, but it sits. ;-)If I had to guess… Ford can not sell a vehicle with a defective airbag….
Thus it sits.
Which makes sense….
It would take little if Zero effort for Ford to just let their customers know what the hold up is.
That would make sense!
If they explained things people would understand….
Treat them like the don’t exist and they get pissed.
Appreciate the information. Nice MoM increase. Now that the Dirt MountIan re-dos are complete (near complete?) that should free up MIC 2.0 volume for new builds. Just read a post from the BN admin that MIC, tow and protective film are the critical path items. Fewer items than in the past.Bronco November 2021 Sales & Production Highlights

I'm pretty sure "sold" means new orders, not deliveries.So does that mean that 17,856 are in transit, dealer mannequins or stranded on dirt mountain? I would suspect that in Jan you will see that number flip to the sales side once they are eligible for purchase and/or DM to be cleared out.
about 600 went to dealer stock this month.What is your source for this information? Loaded two doors for stock? I find that difficult to believe.
