I don't think so. It would be foolish for Ford if they didn't maximize their Bronco production. Stopping Bronco builds just because they don't have the commodities to fill reserved orders is pissing away profits. I won't like it, but I can understand it.Will Ford be adjusting Bronco production lines the next 12 months, to exclusively produce reserved units? Will they stop a version run simply because they hit a reserved limit? I doubt it.
My guess, Ford will try to produce the reserved units, but in the process will build excess units, which will go for sale as normal. And those will increase as time goes by.
Basically, I don't see Ford allowing extra production line costs and throwing money away, just to keep a subset of reservation holders happy over exclusivity.
Am I wrong? Do people think Ford will adjust it's entire manufacturing process based only on reservation holders?
The 2 largest ford dealerships in Wichita each have approximately 25-30 “in transit” , both sales Managers told me that they will receive them spread out over the next 3 weeks and will sell them at MSRP, most are Outer Banks. All are 4dr, mid package, rear lockers, soft top and a few BDs too….they said selling these will help next year’s allocations
This morning I was skimming the Edmunds app and noticed they had Bronco SUV available as an option. Multiple dealerships around the country show them sitting on their lots as “available”. The comments are funny as “recent oil change, been on lot 32 days...” As we all wait for our Bronco’s to arrive, skim through some of the “available” models and see how dealerships are listing them.
