Just in: MAP shutting down weeks of 7/5 and 7/26

[Dirty Bronco]

Prepare yourself accordingly - 7/26 is now confirmed downtime.

Please tell the crews at MAP that I will buy the entire place pizza if they pump mine out before 4th of July.

I remember when everyone attacked me for criticizing the priority orders Guess they weren’t as minor as you all thought, huh? 3K priority orders at this rate is like months worth of builds.

OUCH! With a 7/5 week build date I guess it's back to the customer service number?

You’re completely missing the point. Ford says the biggest commodity constraint is the soft-top. If they have to shut down MAP for a week, that means there’s probably many more constraints than just the soft-tops.

Wait a minute...I thought it was hard tops that were constraints. Now you're saying soft tops? When did this happen!?!

Sorry for all the angry reactions.

I appreciate the frequent updates. That doesn’t make them hurt any less though.

Having my Bronco delayed is the worst kind of heartbreak

It’s like surviving the titanic then getting a ticket on the Andrea Doria

Did you get an update?

Hard-top is the constraint***
Typo, sorry

...Although I guess the soft-top can become a “constraint” too if not enough people order them

I've seen nothing to indicate soft tops are a constraint...but they could become one if there are no hard tops. I doubt Webasto is positioned to deliver 500 soft tops daily...

That's a kick in the sack. Hopefully you can get your new, new, new build estimate soon.

Hm, I am a build week 7/19 from my original 6/28 week, fingers crossed I don't get bumped any further. Called them last week and was told "between 7/19 and 8/3 on my system."

Time will tell.
