Might wait for MY23

[SasBLSven]

So, with the things that are disappearing from MY22, thoughts on waiting till MY23. I'm wondering if they will bring those back in 23 along with the digital dash. Maybe some additional features/options.

I cant get behind this thought process a whole lot. If that's the case, one could keep saying, well next year might be better, etc... And therefore never settle and never get the car. Sure I can understand the wait for things like the modular top as that was publicly announced but generally speaking, time brings advancements with automobiles regardless - so continuing to wait to see what the next year *might* bring, could go on forever, haha.

The way Ford operates we may all be 23 or 24 builds.

I totally agree with that. I was thinking that as I was making this post. With the chip shortage and ever other thing going on, I was wondering if 22 will be a fluke for the bronco and all newer versions will be closer to the 21s, with advancements. My thought is the 22s will be an anomaly, getting short changed.

What is the 22 model losing? Yesterday I ordered a 2 door BaseSquatch 2.7L

The way things are going many of us may be butting up to the model refresh before we take delivery.

I wouldn't play that game. I expect MY23 to lose even more.

Bingo.

The things that are going away in MY22 aren't coming back later. This isn't like World War II where some items are rationed for the duration of the war. These are permanent cost-cutting and production-simplifying measures.

The ford is going now I’d say it’s more likely they the 23 has LESS features and costs MORE money then the 2022. The bean counters will strip cost wherever they can get away with it.

IF they bring these items back my guess is that it won't happen until the mid-generation refresh. The last rumors I saw for that were 2024/2025.

But even if they add back the few items they took away next year... I wouldn't do it personally unless you were already leaning towards the MOD painted tops. The changes that have been found so far are all (in my opinion) minor changes that have no real functional impact on the vehicle, so seems silly to purposefully delay your order for something that has no guarantee of happening in 2023 or later.

If the hard top numbers are correct, I believe that Ford will be "caught up" by this time next year. The only issue that will prove otherwise is the dealer allocation situation. People still waiting because their dealer does not receive as many Bronco's as a major dealer. Which sucks.

I understand both sides of the dealer allocation argument. I do believe Ford should have done a little more to provide a fair delivery experience to early res holders besides allocation situation.

Just place an order and if it comes in buy it if you want it, otherwise let the dealer have it and make some coin.

Don't count on production to catch up. People from the 1/10 build week are learning that their broncos are parked, waiting on chips like all those poor F-150s. Supposedly only a month delay but how can Ford catch back up when all their product lines are affected? Maybe I am just in a bad mood knowing my bronco is now on Ice Mountain waiting.

You must of missed the temp control knob thread that set everyone off.
