Just be honest and transparent with us, Ford.

Few industries if any are working as usual during this worldwide epidemic.

The new Bronco is not a mere refresh of an Explorer or another existing model but rather a truly historic reincarnation of an icon.

I think most will agree that Ford is doing a good job given the circumstances.
It’s definitely a tough time to be releasing a refresh of an icon. But as a prospective owner, more information is definitely to be appreciated instead of teasing answers to simple questions.

Thats what gets to me. If they said “We’re going to launch B&P on November 10th” I’d be fine with that. I’ll wait, and I’ll pay for the Bronco too. I just want to know some facts at this point.

Maybe Ford should change their name to Fjord. Why? So we could - get over it.

I do wanna note, I’m not trying to irk anyone. It’s fine if you don’t mind things as they are. I just know Ford pays attention to these forums and the people on here, and I want to voice how I feel (and I don’t have a Twitter).

I think we all want to know when the B&P would go live....including Ford!

I am certain they are working on it as hard as feasible but they themselves do not know the exact date.

Straight from the online standard Cambridge Dictionary:

---------------------
By is a preposition or an adverb.

By and time
We use by meaning ‘not later than’ to refer to arrangements and deadlines:
It is still not later than September. Excellent job confirming that Mike's tweet still holds true.

Considering the trying times I think Ford has done a fair job. Even the seemingly simple thing like reservations wasn't necessary. Ford will sell every Bronco it can build for the first two years and for every reservation canceled another buyer will take it's place.

The competition is burning the midnight oil trying to counter the Bronco so people might want to cut Ford a break for trying to keep some details secret just a little longer to maintain whatever edge they might still have. It is a business after all.

We'll be seeing some Bronco Sport hands on reviews soon, then the "real" Bronco a bit later.

I'm in aerospace, we have development parts for engine manufactures that are 18 months behind schedule... A month or two is nothing.

Okay, lets all be real here. Ford is just playing hard to get. If this were easy we would lose interest after a couple of weeks... or maybe that's just with relationships. ?

But words do mean things.
Fun fact: words can have different meanings depending on the context in which they are used.

And again, it is still currently “not later than” September. Later than September would be “October”.
