Ford couldn't care less about early reservation holders

Got a Poster, a Hammock, and a Flag. No calendar. Defiantly no Bronco.

I also get tons of Bronco Off-Rodeo Spam e-mails.

No information if I will get my 7-15-2020 reserved 2022 Bronco in 2022 or if it will be 23, or 24 or the 12th of never.

515 days before I got a vin with a 7/13 reservation on a 2D Badlands with Sasq...........and yes I've seen several with later reservation and order dates than mine who've already taken possession of the same bronco as my order. Both in the US and Canada.

Didn't bother reading all replies here, but here's one more data point...

I placed my reservation on July 20, 2020 and mine is listed as "In Production" as of Dec 10, although it hasn't hit the status of "Built" yet on the order tracking page. I really thought I was going to end up with a 2022 model for a while, but it's a 2021 after all. I don't expect to see it until 2022, however.

Options ordered probably make a difference on when each one gets build. Mine is a Base 2-door Sasquatch with almost no other options.

Trying to get a decent count of forum members that have not been scheduled. For now the poll is first 5 days but let me know if we should expand the days to select. I don't think there should be any day one or two reservations not scheduled at this point but of course I and quite a few others are in that boat.

It's almost like an airplane. Unless you're a VIP in first class, it's first in last out. Exclusion being First Editions.

I am a second day, 2dr reservation looser. This waiting game is tiring and I really dislike the Off-rodeo Thursday emails. Those emails don't get me pumped in a positive way. Another bunch of BS put in my face. Look at what you can't have... I am losing patience.

I put in my reservation 6/4/2021 for a 4 door Badlands soft top with LUx and Sasquatch. I got notified from my dealership a few days ago about my Bronco is going to be scheduled to be built in late February 2022.

Yup.. .it's beyond maddening. 7/20/20 reservation date, and I have NO idea when it's getting built.

SAME HERE...I HAVE THE SAME BUILT DATE.

7/16/2020 .....no vin, no build date, no nothing yet...Can anybody beat that?

Yes. 9am 7/14 reservation. 2door. Ordered through Chapman. Guess that was a mistake in hindsight.

This is the same situation as when the “standard” Tesla Model 3 came out. A friend dropped $1000 a reservation, waited over 2 years, and I placed an order the day the car went live.

Guess who got their car first…

I just want my damn Bronco.

Karma lol

 

[M&M Beer]

Well it has reached 450 days since my order started and nothing?

yes it's been covered elsewhere but it does seem like reservation literally means less than nothing at this point- seems like it's all allocation and build- if your dealer has the allocation and they can build your rig, it gets built. that explains how someone could have identical build and come in a year and a half after you and get a build date- their dealer must have an allocation available to them that your dealer doesn't. all i can say is that it does seem like they're really getting going in terms of manufacturing- so many more people seem to be getting vins now for early 22- i feel like everyone is going to be satisfied in 2022 with the exception of colored tops

It was ALWAYS allocation and build spec. The reservation number played directly into dealer allocation. If 200 people all reserved on 7-13/7-14, and ALL went to the SAME dealer, a whole bunch would've been screwed.

 

[KompressorV12]

After reading this thread two things are clear, some of you understand the allocation model and are rightfully angry. And some of you have no idea what Ford allocation model is it clearly shows by comparing similar spec’d models but later reservations/orders at a completely separate dealership lol

 

[AMICHDEC]

I can beat that. See below.

At least I see others are in the same boat
