Broncos galore spotted in holding yard

[tdiddy]

I wonder how many of these soft tops will be full of snow after tomorrow's 12"+ of snow?

Stopped by one of the yards today.

I wonder if these are parked in some kind of build date order. Imagine being asked to pull a particular VIN from this pile otherwise

 

[Raptor911]

if I had to guess, they are 2021s waiting on chips. Seems like lots of guys/gals are getting their 2022s delivered

Probably. They're right on a main road.

How would they find them once the storm hits? It won't melt for a while.

Not my industry, but from what I know from Toyota's US factories and chip shortages, chips tend to come in large batches (20K units +), so if all these are waiting for chips, then they know about the short component well enough in advance to built the unit and wait for content to arrive rather than not build them in the first place.

Likely has more to do with UAW labor agreements, but still, waiting for the last few parts isn't nearly as bad as not having a VIN in the first place.

You have to wonder if all those are being held for suspected bad 2.7 engines.

Probably a mix, there's a decent amount of 2022 people stuck in production.

I was gonna say, they gotta be getting thousands of chips in a delivery at once. Hopefully that creates short stays on ice mountain if any.

I've been on ice Mountain since 12/15...

 

[Duke.Roughneck]

I'm in there somewhere...

 

[Lilj4425]

We need t shirts, patches, and stickers made for Ice Mountain.

 

[PSUTE]

They're going to get buried - big snow coming this week

Looks like the deer were also looking at them...

 

[shieldsy]

You won't see a single Bronco there tomorrow............because they will all be BURRIED in snow.
