First Edition Bronco Update - Yours may be scheduling soon!

[awerk66]

I just switched the color on my FE order yesterday. Do these orders typically get pulled Tuesday morning? I imagine my dealer would've mentioned something yesterday. I am an early day 2 res in original 3,500 FE allocations.

You mentioned 23 FE’s were pulled - Is it safe to assume that means nothing else was, just FE’s?

Not to highjack Zach's thread but do we know how many acceptable tops Webasto is producing a day? Or how many shifts they are running? If one does the math and assumes no FE's have been built, and all will be built in the next 3 months of production, then Webasto only needs to crank out 65 tops per day on a single shift 5 day week. Then remember that some have been built and not all 7k will be built. Just trying to put it in perspective for folks that non-FE MIC's still have a chance.

MAP is building 2,618 broncos this week.
2,015 of them are 4dr.

Out of the 2,618 broncos being built this week, 1,782 are hard tops!

This is the kind of positive information we need around this place instead of the ill-informed, doom and gloom, all hope is lost posts.

Bunch of FE's getting scheduled this week. MAP cranking out hard top Broncos. Good thread, good thread indeed.

No such thing as the first 3500 it was always 7000, also it’s interesting your a day 2 reservation.

Not sure i understand. Did Ford not originally cap the FE orders at 3,500? and technically i reserved it 7/13 @ 10pm ish after launch, but for some reason my res shows up as 7/14 @ 6am

Nope Ford fucked up and let 7000 people reserve the first day. What happened was their system allowed 3500 2 door and 3500 4 door reservations.

That means 2 doors are moving from 20% to 25%...only one week, but still that's moving up!

Interesting that another dealer posted in another forum on FB that in his weekly Monday email from Ford that they AREN’T scheduling Broncos this week… I really don’t know what to believe anymore

Official communication from Ford is no scheduling this week. FE are their own beast with a separate allocation process and zone reps involved, so its possible some manual scheduling is happening for them.

Thanks. This is helpful info. Frustrating but helpful. I’m fairly certain Ford has no clue what they are doing right now. One week of scheduling since May 28th and making everyone hold their breath each Monday. Stupid

I dont think many have seen this particular info.

So if you don’t have a FE ordered or a VIN issued yet and want the MIC top you’re pretty much sh*t out of luck until 2022. At least that’s what this sounds like to me.

yup, was about to post this. The Webasto load will be blown on FEs this year. The rest of us are shit out of luck. The good news is maybe they will learn how to make tops before the rest of us get ours so they don't look like garbage like some of the other MIC deliveries have.

People keep posting this like it's true, and it's not.

FEs were always going to gobble up the MICs it takes to build them this year. This isn't new info. If Webasto is only going to produce about 10,000 MICs this year then, yes, if you haven't been scheduled yet and aren't a FE, you're out of luck. But the info communicated hasn't changed: Ford is targeting a 60% to 40% build rate on hard tops vs soft tops. If they only produce 40,000 MY21 vehicles, which would be at the low end of estimates, that's still 24,000 MIC tops.

What exactly are the implications of that statement?
