Broncos scheduling this week 5/20

[mpmcgaughey]

I know I'm a ways off from our build being scheduled but I'd just like to know our delivery estimate emails are coming one of these days

Here’s hoping I get an email this week. I decided to drop the tow package from my FE to see if that would help me out.

And just to rub it in to the folks that can’t get a response from their dealer: it took 12 minutes to get an updated build sheet back after emailing them with the request to drop the tow package.

At least we know there are previews happening in the first "FE" week, which would imply there will be mere mortal previews next week.

For July build dates - Here come the last of the priority builds with the FEs starting in. Right on schedule...my schedule...lol

What exactly are we looking at here? Does this indicate that they intend to have all FE built after the production week of 8/3?

Glad that after the last few weeks of this being on pause we are back to scheduling.

^^who knows. I am assuming 100% FEs production for a week (given the guidance we received for this week's notification), then 75/25% FEs until they are done with FEs. Who knows what that really looks like. These are just my assumptions. Although the aggregate builds with the ramp up and factory shut down end up penciling out to the Fords total volume for 2021.

Tow package on an FE?

Well, To look at it in a positive light, those of us plebs who are not a FE or VIP will have less QC issues to worry about

So, whom exactly, is Ford talking to when they come out with a memo to switch to soft tops and away from other constrained commodities to increase build chances by the 12th, and then again by the 19th? They’re certainly not talking to FE customers since those commodities are baked into the cake. Why set artificial deadlines when compliance by the requested dates for two consecutive weeks are inconsequential to July scheduling. It is for reasons exactly like this that people are losing confidence in Fords ability to deliver. No multi-billion dollar company is that stupid or incompetent. They are either stringing us along to buy time, or flat out lying to us........choose your poison I suppose.

They were lying and stringing us along. I just purchased a 2020 Gladiator but will be keeping my order for the Bronco. I told the dealer give me a great price on the Gladiator because it's coming back to you when my Bronco arrives. Ford dropped the ball on their future flagship line.

yep 3000 push some tell next year and my dealer was told last week that 2022 broncos won't start shipping tell Feb

That's 3 months earlier then I expected.

Lite brite nation and street speed 717 will prob have them before us I’m willing to bet and some other big you tubers that orderd

Probably a reason that Lite Brite just traded in their Dodge for a Platinum F450....

As long it's not one of those youtubers that destroys cars for clicks. It's gonna be ok for me. If I see one of those videos I'm really gonna be pissed.

VIP's? What big dealers? What defines someone as a VIP? Just curious.

Ignorance is bliss, but if you really want to know.... as a reward for placing your order Ford gave you one last kick in the ass and let dealers select ~3000 orders, regardless of reservation timestamp, to move to the front of the line ahead of you. These people are first in line to get the limited commodities and may delay your order or push you out of 2021 allocation.

I watched that video yesterday they said they had nothing but problems with dodge day 1 so traded it for f450 platinum that truck is a fortune close to 100000 they must be making a fortune off YouTube and sponsorships probably in the millions I’d guess
