I am as excited about it as ever. A short delay hasn't changed that at all. I'm surprised that anyone ever thought the published date projections were firm.

I'm kind of happy about the delay... TBH. I did my reservation in July and don't actually need the Bronco until this time next year. COVID means no regular office hours for the indefinite future, and we have a number of cars already, so if the weather is bad (primary Bronco use) I can just stay home.

I'll go from nervous excited to regular excited if/when I can see some of my potential color options in person. Color choice anxiety is the only real concern I've got.
I agree as the colour palate is a bit uninspiring. I would want to make sure I really liked the choice. To me black and grey doesn’t do this vehicle justice. The reds with a white roof would be fantastic ,as well as the blues. Cactus grey and Area 51 are interesting but would have to see them live.

Not very, anymore, unfortunately. The nickle and diming of certain items that should be on lower trims (sound deadening on the high trim - which in turn can't be optioned with BD and under - really?) has led me to be more likely to not purchase it now. Kinda bummed, but to each their own.
That’s crap, sound deadening should be an option on any bronco. It’s like a heater in the winter. If your vehicle can be quieter it should be. In fact they should not be cheap and make this standard.

I have to admit that my excitement for a car that seems to be perpetually more than a year off is waning. I have two reservations but neither of them are early so a 2022 delivery appears a virtual certainty. While I understand the reasons, if it slips any more I'll just buy something else and then take a look at the Bronco in a few years when you can actually buy one. However, by then I expect there will be other new options I'll be considering as well.

I'm 50/50. I'm not as excited as I was when I watched the live unveiling. Too many models and options, sas, non sas etc. I'm going to wait to see owners YouTube videos lol. I'll buy a lease return when I figure out what I want versus what I need.

I am still excited. I knew exactly what I was getting into when I placed a reservation for a vehicle not yet in production. I don't want a new car, I want a new Bronco. Nothing on this scale has ever gone "as planned". I have more time to plan my pick up adventure. If it were easy everyone would do it.

Hasn't changed, I'm still really excited. I placed my reservation on 7/15, and I knew I'd be waiting a long time to take delivery. What's another couple of months?

At my age (re: old) I get excited about waking up in the morning. Getting a new Bronco when it's built will be nice, but if I don't wake up it won't make any difference. Priorities Grasshopper, priorities. :)

I’m still excited. I have a July 28th reservation so I’m not sure if I’ll get one next year or not. It’s becoming clear that I’ll need to find something else to obsess over in the mean time. Other than that just trying remain grateful that it will come, while keeping in mind the people that would have been building it could be out of work.

At first I was extremely excited. To the point that I'm pretty sure my Wife was going to block this site, tape my mouth shut, and make me sleep on either the couch or in my truck if I even said the word "Bronco" to her once more.

Sadly, with each new bit of bad news and disappointment after disappointment my excitement is waning considerably. I'm really taking a serious look into my backup plan now. I'll see what "January" brings, but, I'm not getting my hopes up.

Meh, the initial hype from the reveal has faded. Now it's just what feels like endless waiting, and not having a reservation means even more waiting.

Maybe if Ford put a 2 door Sasquatch in Velocity Blue out in the wild it'd rekindle that spark.

Never been more excited in my life. Don’t care about delays/what anyone else says.
