Most Likely Build to Jump the Line?

[Broncoman23]

My brother put a reservation in early May. The dealer told him not to expect to hear anything until early next year at the earliest and possibly midyear 2022. He just got an email with his vin and it's being built the end of July. He's getting a 4 door Big Bend, 2.3 with soft top.

So there you go on how to jump. lol

A base, 2.3, 4dr, soft top would get built in August.

I have a OBX, 2.7, Softtop, Sasquatch, High Package and Towing. I have a VIN and a Schedule Prod date of 6/21...

I've been thinking about making the switch to a soft top 4-door Big Bend. I'm interested in how some of the orders with VIN numbers and Sasquatch are being built.

I'm a laggerd, so I'll probably wait until 2022 (or 2023)...

My line jumping build is:
Base-4dr-2.7-softop-Sas'd-aux switches
Granger 2K below invoice Oct 31st reservation, vin'd and build date of July 26

I don't understand why people want to throw a build together that is nothing close to what they want just to get it a little early. The only thing I sacrificed on my 2 door, Black Diamond, 2.7, SAS, MIC top was the modular painted top and I received a VIN last week. Just be patient and stick with what you want or you may regret it down the road.

I hear you and agree that it is really important for some buyers to get exactly what they want because they may not be happy in the long run. But there are others (including me) that would be equally happy in any number of builds. I will say that I'm struggling making the change to a soft top, which could be the reason I wait, so I get it on some level.

Can you get the base 4 door with the manual? If so, I'm definitely in for that.

And flat gray primer.... That's a huge score.

No, I would have opted for that too

What do you think the chances are of an October 1 reservation jumping the line? Mine is a Black Diamond w/ a soft top - build in signature. I was anticipating a MY22 but yesterday a dealer suggested the BD may be in my favor?

Line jumpers.....jumping the line to build something they don't really want just to get one. Sounds like money not well spent. I won't say what I really think lol.

In my case, I built what I wanted, just w/ a late reservation - I'm more curious than anything.

I agree with that. I don't feel like I made sacrifices when I made my switch. Just all the extra time really made me think what is important on my build. Will I regret going soft top, possibly but I just dont know if I have faith in the hard tops being right.

I think all these tops are junk. Hopefully there will be some good aftermarket options.

I sacrificed hard top for soft top( I didn’t mind) and switched 2.7 to 2.3 (a bit cheaper but it’s the only one I’m not 100% onboard)
Main reason some, I included, is our leases are ending soon and it’s cutting it very close if we have to dip into Q1 or even Q2 of next year. Originally, I was generously giving myself until the end of the year for my build, but I had to compromise a bit…
