If anybody wants to know how long It took for me to lose my patience.

so January 10, 2022 I ordered a two door irruption green big bend . I got very discouraged about all the restrictions on pretty much everything I wanted knowing from many different people that my order was probably not gonna be filled within a year. I was not willing to pay the 15to20k over most places were getting so I made a ton of phone calls I accepted the fact that a four-door soft top was in my future and I did find one for 6000 over sticker and accepted the deal!My patience lasted a little over four months I donā€™t know how other people wait longer.

Congrats -nice looking OBX - honestly the $6k likely well spent versus frustration. Further more, by the time you may have gotten one at sticker - your trade may have been worth that much less.

I did want two door but the four-door would fit my lifestyle a lot better and I really donā€™t need a hard top in South Carolina
I sincerely hope you're not just rationalizing your decision. For that much money, I would have waited for the 2 door.....4 doors and a soft top just don't do it for me. But, enjoy the heck out of your new ride.

Gorgeous Bronco, carbon gray with soft top looks amazing. Not as amazing as my lowly Base, but close haha!

So many advantages to 4 doors, rear seat access is just the beginning. Anyone who has stuff to haul or even occasionally has more than 2 people will appreciate 4 doors. Not hating on the 2Dr I get it that old Broncos were 2Dr, but its a big price to pay.

i get it, especially a late res. in the end if it's worth it to the person and they have the cash do it, glad you got one!

the adm/scalper market will never change, the only downside is that every time this happens it helps enforce the practice. plus side 6k is reasonable for what most are getting non-res.
AS LONGAS THERE R PEOPLE WILLING TO PAY ADM......THEY(DEALERS) WILL COME.

Clearly my experience working with the public leaves me with a different definition of losing patience. I pictured you at the dealership, turning over tables in the show room, because it was taking so long. Meanwhile, youā€™re out paying the ā€œbuy it nowā€ vig, which was awful nice of you.

Itā€™s okay, I understand, Iā€™ve been sitting on the Everglades fence for a week now, with a $6k price increase for the best interior, suspension, a winch, and potential for earlier delivery fighting it out with losing the 2.7.

I reserved 7/21, ordered 9/21, reordered when pushed to MY22 10/21. I ordered just about every constraint there was. MIC, 2.7, bash plate, tow, tailgate table, etc, etc. I wanted exactly what I wanted and was determined to wait for it...and wait for it...and wait for it. I got discouraged several times, especially reading on here and other forums about all the delays.
But last week I finally got a scheduled build week of 5/30! Called my dealer and got my VIN! I know I may still get bumped, etc, but it makes it a lot more real now. Now I can start buying accessories, and looking at options for the vanity plate, lol! Hang in there my friends.

I donā€™t blame you for not waiting, life is short. Like that color, btw what running boards are those?
I went to look at them last month saw exactly what l liked and bought it! Salesman didnā€™t know he had it.
They have a cactus gray base coming in within next 2 weeks if anyone is interested

Willing to wait for what I want. OBX, SAS, MIC,MOD,LUX, Leather, TOW, overhead switches 2.7 res 9/22/20 ordered 1/22/21
And the only difference in what you are waiting for and what I am driving is I have a softtop and standard tires. You are stuck waiting all this time simply on the MIC roof which by all accounts is even in version 2.0 a piece of you know what

I have seven vehicles four of which are two doors and they just donā€™t get used that often
