There's no way of knowing. Its entirely luck, with some manipulation of constrained components. I decided early on I was going to order what I wanted, and wait as long as it took. (2.7 4dr OBX, High, MIC, Tow, non-SAS). I got lucky with a 7/21 build and a 10/21 delivery due to MIC replacement. My experience with the MIC top is that its a fine piece of craftsmanship and works quite well with no leaks. I do not want a car with a floppy boat canvas. I like taking the panels on & off. One panel went flying at 50mph because I forgot to latch, one corner was delaminated and smashed. I was able to repair with epoxy, and in the process learned more about the construction and I'm pleased.I reserved a badlands on 7-15-20 and went on to order (twice now) badlands 2.7, hard top, high with tow package. My question now is how long until I could expect a vin #?
My dealer and I have no idea when It'll arrive and I’m just looking for a little insight on the situation.
Is anyone else close to me in the stack?
Does anyone else have the same order?
When were the lates Deliveries reserved?Will I be waiting ANOTHER year or could I expect a vin # in the next couple months?
Any insight at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
You'll read here about the occasional build problems, but I think there are many more well-made vehicles out there, and more and more every day in our neck of the SC lowcountry.
I think its a vehicle worth waiting for, but probably better to think of something else for awhile, once you've sure you've got your order lined up. I received my vehicle 6 months after I got my VIN in April, 2021. In July, I set a goal of getting it by Thanksgiving. It arrived October 21, "early" and so I managed my own expectations.
Good luck. I think that your order, the Badlands MIC 2.7 High 2 or 4dr Tow is the perfect Bronco. Hope to get it by July 4, and maybe you'll luck out and get it by Easter or Memorial Day!
