Christ. My dealer said it's built and waiting to ship when I had to discuss some things on Saturday... FWIW, my sales guy isn't the most keen on the inside track on Bronco, so who knows.Yesā¦.

At the pace weāre at I was thinking I was optimistic. Not being negative, but being realistic. Still ā21 so Iāll be happy.Yeah that kinda took the wind out of my sails too. Iām hoping thatās just a pessimistic predictionā¦ā¦
If thatās for last week, whatās the estimate for those built this week?At the pace weāre at I was thinking I was optimistic. Not being negative, but being realistic. Still ā21 so Iāll be happy.
Ah I see, I guess we are just wondering if you have this on reliable source or if you have just lowered your expectations based on current happenings. Iāll try and stay on the sunny side on this one and hope for an august delivery .At the pace weāre at I was thinking I was optimistic. Not being negative, but being realistic.

LOL, too late , look 4 posts above yours!Like everything that has happened they probably hope they can fix the issue before its widespread beyond a msg board and a Facebook group.
Yes. LolAh I see, I guess we are just wondering if you have this on reliable source or if you have just lowered your expectations based on current happenings. Iāll try and stay on the sunny side on this one and hope for an august delivery .
No idea. Last weeks research suggested soft tops are being shoveled out like coal for a train. For hard tops, who knows.If thatās for last week, whatās the estimate for those built this week?
But he canāt make a profit off the sale of vehicles.And we just add a sprinkle of foreshadowingā¦.
Say what you want about Elon. I personally donāt think heās nearly as book-smart as his largest proponents will claim. But there are two things about him that you cannot dispute; the dude knows how to build a team; and he knows how to build a brand.
Second that coming from the Badger stateRoss, as a diehard Spartan who bleeds green and white, it pains me to say this, but I would be glad to buy you a beer some day. Keep telling us whats what.
Auto shows, Super Celebration West and East, Ford Show in Carlisle......also again you're missing the point. Anyone with a reservation AND an order IS ALREADY A 99.9% SOLD BRONCO AND MONEY IN FORD'S POCKET. You can't do anything in those dealer demos that we couldn't do at Super Celebrations, where the true bronco folks go every year if possible. Also again it is my prerogative, because those could be and should be somebody's order, including mine. Ford has been advertising this for over a year now officially in case you missed it lmao. You must be a 4 door guy huh?
Also, why can't anyone with Ford answer my question? I've asked it in multiple places on multiple days, tagged Ross even.
You're point isn't wrong, being a first night reservation and first day order, I want mine and to hell with dealer stock. But from a business perspective, they've already got us. We've been waiting years, and 95% of early reservation holders and members here, aren't going to back out if they told us it would be another six months. But that's just the first two years. The affluent non-enthusiust that saw a Bronco on the road the other day and walks into his local dealer with cash in hand won't convert to a sale when the salesman tells him "We'll have your's in in about two years". A year in now, all the dedicated buyers have a reservation or order, the well is dry, they need to get Broncos on the lots soon or it'll just fade away like it did 25 years agoAuto shows, Super Celebration West and East, Ford Show in Carlisle......also again you're missing the point.

aha, so it has impacted my scheduled build.The thought is our earlier builds is when they found the issues, held them and are replacing them while still building new vehicles, Ford isn't going to stop production to fix the ones sitting, they just have to take some as they go and swap and ship them. unfortunately depending on how they park them they probably started swapping the ones in the from the front so the oldest builds sitting there will also sit the longest until they get to the back of the lot......
Jeez, hopefully our broncos won't spontaneously combust !And we just add a sprinkle of foreshadowingā¦.

Yep and that's disappointing on Ford's part. The affluent non-enthusiast most likely won't want to wait 6 months to buy that particular demo either imo.You're point isn't wrong, being a first night reservation and first day order, I want mine and to hell with dealer stock.

So if the contract was just signed, whatās a realistic time frame for another company to actually start producing them in quantity?Correct. Last I was told was that "the ink was drying" on the contract 3 weeks ago or so. I'm a bit surprised no specifics have been leaked out. Webasto has lost the contract for the MOD tops.
MY 23 and probably not a moment earlier.So if the contract was just signed, whatās a realistic time frame for another company to actually start producing them in quantity?
What makes you think they will unfook these tops 5 months from now? This is an 18 month fix at besthard tops all the way
screw the soft tops settlements .
I'm in the wait for a good looking and very functional top. 2022 is just around the corner.
