I see so many counting days they have waited to get their Bronco. For some reason, the reservation day is the day they began. I could get into all of the dealer screwups, commodity restrictions, late ordering reasons. That would make a hell storm happen on here and not what I want to begin.

I did want to go back and see where this ride all began. The moment all of us started frantically searching the internet for photos and news. It was so long ago, I had forgotten. I decided to take a look around and see what dates I could come up with. If you see a date that is wrong and have an article I can reference, let me know.

You're forgetting the entry for 'frantically change the announcement date from june 17th', because someone in marketing didn't realize that was the same date that OJ decided to go for a drive.

His birthday is July 9th. That was when they stated reservations would first open. I listed that as “Original Reservation Date.”

LMAO, was that what it was? I thought it was the chase for some reason. either explanation is cringe-y.

Honestly, we should've all taken that first snafu as a sign of what was going to come for the next 3 years...

I see so many counting days they have waited to get their Bronco. For some reason, the reservation day is the day they began..................

Using the day that you put money down on a product (even if it's refundable), only makes sense.

But Sarge, what about the day the Ultra4 Bronco was unveiled in 2019? It sort of looked like the Bronco.

Also, that Rampage Bronco; would have taken that one as well, but what we ended up with is great.

Took mine 926 days from the day I reserved....

Exactly everyone who put down 100 bucks in July of 20 uses this pointless day a a starting date.
Then they ordered one in November of 21 and it comes in November 22 then claim they waited 2 and half years . No you waited 1 year from when you told Ford what to build.
I waited 364 days from order to delivery.

$100 is $100. That's when I start counting.

Does supliferous mean all the dates matter? 😂 I’m going to start using that word!
