I understand manufacturing is a mess right now. But we were square in the middle of the suck when Ford said theyād start production in March. Here we are in July, and theyāve delivered several hundred cars. I can custom order a Wrangler today and drive it home in less than 3 months. And thatās being pessimistic about it. Iām waiting on my Bronco for right now. It looks to be every bit of what Ford promised. But Iām not waiting into 2023. And maybe not until the middle 2022. Iām a July 15 res. I know there are lots of day 1 and 2 res holders still waiting for a build date. But Ford shouldāve been able to deliver my Bronco by September according to THEIR schedule. Which THEY put out in the middle of the pandemic. Instead they canāt even give me a realistic estimate of when they might be able to deliver my vehicle.Queue up the folks stuck in February 2020.
It's as if nothing has happened, yet somehow only FoMoCo is affected by manufacturing issues!
Meanwhile, i'm over here walking into any Chevy/Jeep/Honda/Toyota/Nissan/Any-non-Ford dealership in the nation staring at a lot with 120 days supply and an abundance of UAW employees basking in the glory of overtime, 3rd shifts and a lean management structure!
