At this point it’s probably too early to tell. Though, if I had to guess, if the current delay for the Sport holds, the actual Bronco probably wouldn’t get as much of a delay, if any at all.
I saw somewhere that they were just starting to disassemble the production equipment and getting ready to bring to the plant when the virus hit. I suspect there will be some delay.

I doubt there was much “disassembly” needed because the c max and focus ended in May 2018. More or less pre-assembly

I was referring to the new equipment to build the Bronco. It's supposedly assembled off site and they just beginning to prepare it to ship to the assembly line when things got shut down. Of course, I can't find the article now.

Take the artificial for what you will. They think the FSB won’t be unveiled till next year lmfao.
But a spokes person told them that “Mach E, F150 and FSB” are not NOT going to be delayed!!!

Quote from the WSJ says engineers who were working Bronco are now working ventilators:

At a Ford engineering facility in Dearborn, Mich., engineers plastered a conference-room wall with yellow sticky notes last week, mocking up a factory layout to produce the machines. Some only weeks ago had been immersed in the launch of the new Ford Bronco SUV.

Am I the only one that is annoyed they keep calling it the full size Bronco?? I know they are trying to distinguish it from the "Baby Bronco" but this is NOT going to be a FSB. In fact there are insiders here that specifically said a full size Bronco was considered but rejected.

Right because it is a retro EB, so maybe we should make up a new acronym: MSB?

How about Bronco Mark III or if you love the name Baby Bronco, then call it Teen Bronco?
