So, can you start calling dealers to find out their allocation and figure out timestamp to decide to move? Seems you could call around, find out the allocation and timestamp and decide to "cut in line" so to speak by moving your order and bumping someone prior to the March date.

I'm guessing my dealer has reservations that have a broad timestamp, many aren't first or second day reservations, but span a couple months. You could then switch dealership before a bump someone that is maybe in that first few weeks.

Anyone want a day 1 reservation? I've got a 7/14 reservation and I'd love to trade out for one that would guarantee me a 22MY. So if anyone wants their Bronco this year my reservation is a solid bet. I think I'm in the top 15% of day 1 reservations even, based on the giant spreadsheet on this site.
A day 1 reservation would be on 7/13/20 not 7/14/20.

I wonder if this has to do with shipping lag or the fact that F150’s are built at 2 different plants (KC and Dearborn). I know my dealer said they were still having 07 F150’s coming in after my 08 came in. I just wish my 08 would have lasted a bit longer, died in fall of 19, the lovely 5.4 3V phasers killed it at 105K.

Wife got upgraded cause I wanted to wait for a Bronco, just can’t pull the trigger on a Wrangler. She got a Subaru Forester and the heated seats and safety/tech features are going to make me probably jump to OBX to get the high package.
Both.

They need to accumulate enough VINs to fill an auto rack going to one auto ramp. Then once they get to the auto ramp, they need to accumulate enough VINs to fill a truck going to the dealer. At these accumulation points, it is very possible that you could end up with two model years of the same vehicle on the same truck. This increases if you have two factories that don’t do model year change at the same time. In this case a dealer could receive two F-150s, one from KC, one from Dearborn, on the same truck with two different model years.

I have a 7/13 reservation, but it shows 7/14. I recall Ford sending something out about the dates being off a few months back. I'm assuming that's what happened here.

The only thing that bugs me is the 22MY fix for roof racks on 4dr squatch....Luckily, the aftermarket will take care of me so I won't miss out

There seems to be a mental block with many people around 22MY thinking it means you'll have a significant delay in your Bronco. Most auto plants take 2 weeks to convert MY, and I doubt it will take that long if there is any delay at all. It could be a simple as the Broncos built on Tuesday are 21MY and the Broncos built on Wednesday are 22MY.

If you're reservation is far enough back, you're waiting till December regardless, don't let what MY is on the window sticker hang you up. Frankly, you might be better off in the long run in terms of options and included features.

Ford could solve A LOT of problems if they would tell the consumer EXACTLY what mystery colors they are entertaining. I KNOW I want a white top, but I have 7/14 reservation. If I knew what was available and when it would get delivered for sure in 2022 Id commit to the white top and let somebody who has to have a 21 take my place. Will C Orange stick around or is it 1 year only? Will there be a green? TELL US so we can make informed decisions spending that much.

I reserved July 13th at 10:34pm ET but yes my reservation says 7/14 in the Ford system.

From what this email says, it seems I can delay ordering, keep my existing place in line, see what the new colors, roof options, etc are for MY22 and then order at a later date?!?!

If so.... anyone after 7/13 at 10:34pm ET will be moving up one spot.

I believe the explanation was that the time stamp set on Zulu Time (the UTC or GMT which is a 5 hr difference from EST - based in the UK).

If I can't get a 2021, I don't want one. I'll need to confirm with my dealer if I'm in the initial allocation. They'll want a non-refundable deposit, I'm sure, so we'll need to see where things line up or I'm out.

I can tell some of you have never gone through a divorce. The other will likely get the Bronco too! I’m thinking the adoption route might be better but then I’ve never done that side!

ok so the trick for us early day 1/2 people is put the order in with a known 22 option. your MY21 order will be converted to a MY22 and "you" control that order and what it is and remove it if its something you dont want. based on the latest from Ford, you will be an early 22 run due to timestamp tada
Like what option?
