Manual Transmission delay?

[StaticAnalysis]

My dealer said all manual transmission Broncos won't be getting built until early 2022... I've heard of Sasquatch manuals being delayed but this is the first time I've heard this. Of course, they also said the tow package won't cause delays for Broncos so... does anyone have any definitive answer or is my dealer just clueless?

Clueless dealer. Mansquatch is expected in '22. There's been no indication that manuals in general would be delayed.... Yet.

EDIT* Here's the thread with somewhat current commodity restraints. Manual is actually a positive, rather than a delayed item.

Clueless.

Source: Ordered Manual, have VIN.

And just as a general PSA. - Do NOT play @ZackDanger 's drinking game unless you have zero obilgations for the next 48 hours if you're below the age of thirty, 72 if you're above.

I wish my dealer at least had people skills...


Am I a jerk because last time talking to him he had no idea and I know other customers will get screwed by his ignorance but I know there is no point trying to educate him...

Is it also bullshit then that they can't drop the towing package from my build? Do I have to call Ford for that?

Do you have a VIN? If so then it's being built as ordered.

If not you should be able to change your order.

Dealer is clueless...I have a MT, a VIN and build date week of June 14, 2021. Perhaps dealer is confusing the mansquatch as you said.

Can't we get a Python script to aggregate any post or thread with the phrase "my dealer said" into a separate bizarro forum of misinformation?

Unless you have a VIN assigned your dealer can 100% change your order. Ford has put that in writing to the dealers and said it on video to buyers.

What’s bullshit is that your dealer doesn’t know, or chooses not to, do it.
