Apparently you can only complain if you are the worst off on this forum. I'm slowly picking up on the informal complaining rules:
1) you can't complain if you have a VIN because many people don't;
2) you can't complain if you have received an email of any kind because other people haven't;
3) you can't complain if you aren't a day 1 res because it's not fair that others have been "skipped"; however,
4) you can complain if you meet the following criteria: (a) you are a day 1 res, (b) you have not received a VIN; and (3) you have not received any communication from Ford.

Caveats:
1) you may complain if a dealership has messed up your order, however, the forum will ultimately blame you, so don't expect too much sympathy.
2) FE folks will complain no matter what if they don't have a build date because they feel entitled to do so and any complaints about those complaints, no matter how logical, mean nothing because you are just a poor person.

Did I miss anything? I wouldn't want anybody to get their feelings hurt.

Unfortunately that sounds about right. Used to be fun on here, but the minute some people don't get what they want they become dicks. They pretty much suffer from dr jekyll and mr hyde disease.

It's looking like almost all June builds are getting pushed to July (or maybe just hard tops?), which makes me think July builds will end up in August if everything doesn't get pushed even more. Really does not bode well for anyone hoping to get a Bronco this year.

Lol, you're a very smart man @Nobs ....

THIS

Your scenario is quickly becoming reality. Sure manufacturing may speed up later in the year but these trends worry me. It's why I went from ths super patient "I'll get it when I get it in 22", to actively trying to change my build to get it built soon as possible without compromising what I want. I just can't risk the delays pushing me to mid 22 or later due to all this uncertainty.

So my philosophy is... get the Bronco in my driveway asap then make it how I want via upgrades later. The vehicle is modular in so many ways, that there really is no need to fret over not getting it how I want it out of the factory
