I ordered from Stamford Ford in CT
That is just before the March shut down. What were your expectations? You need patience. You have been given some good ideas. Others have had to adjust.

I just don’t think my Bronco is ever coming. I need a new car badly and really wanted this car to come. The dealer told me 3-4 months if I were to order a soft top. Now I probably won’t see the vehicle until 2023. Anyone else losing hope like I am? Just seems like everyday a new issue occurs and that it isn’t getting better.
Really, you just ordered in February 22? Expect 6-8 months at least, if you have no constraints, so I would say August/Sept timeframe. You ordered the wrong vehicle if you were needing a quick build.

With all due respect, if your Bronco isn't or wasn't trapped on Dirt, Ice, now Mud mountain....and you aren't a day one res holder....

Get in line behind all of the other frustrated and mistreated Ford customers.
Day one reservation holder, I am still stuck in “production”

I ordered the first week you could back in June 2020. My bronco was produced January 2022 and it is still on chip hold and I was just told it won't be ready by August ☠ @Ford Motor Company

Not doubting you but who has told “day 1 hour 1” reservation holders being told their vehicle won’t be available until 2024? I wouldn’t doubt it but how is that figured when there’s no rhyme or reason as to who’s reservations are getting filled at this point? Or why some folks can walk into a dealer and order and have their bronco in a month.
None of it makes sense but it makes even less sense that ford or a dealer would definitively be able to tell a day 1 hour 1 one holder that they’d won’t be filled for 2 more years.
Granger and other few other dealers who offered great deals to day 1 Bronco enthusiasts because those buyers wanted to work with a dealer who would be honest. That's who has had to tell their customers they are going to have to wait 1, 2, 3, years before they might get produced because of what FMC did to change the allocations rules and reward its biggest dealers who want to ADM their customers.

If the vast majority of your dealer's customers ordered the hard top, then ordering a 4 door soft top (without tow) could reasonably get you a Bronco in 3-4 months.

Ford never invested into enough tooling to make all the hard tops ordered. As a result, they are still building soft tops at 2-3 times the actual order rate.

Now, I personally think your dealer just pulled a number out of his ass, but if he only has a few soft top orders then it's actually not that unreasonable.

I ordered a 2-Door Base Manual 14 months ago; I'd bet you get your soft top before I get mine.

I think people just need to accept neither a dealer nor anyone reachable at Ford knows what the hell they're talking about. Theres no rhyme or reason to any of it. Nobody can be definitely told your reservation isn't getting filled until 2024. That may be the case, but its not a fact.

Any ADM from them? McMahon in Norwalk was charging one so I went to a smaller dealer in Central CT that my family knows. Did you join the Connecticut group?
Yes stamford is charging 15-25k over sticker. And yes I am in the group

I agree with you that there are a lot of unknowns and luck involved in getting your order built, but you've been on this forum for a very brief time. Take a look at threads started by Granger and you will see they are telling their 1,000+ reservation holders they wont see that many vehicles for years with their current allocation numbers because of what Ford did to change how they determined how many vehicles a dealership would get after all those orders were taken. And with Ford not allowing those reservations/order holders at the back of Granger's allocations to switch their ordered vehicle to another dealer, yeah it could be 3 years before they see their Bronco built based on current the product/demand and parts constraint situation.

These posts are sad. Why wage so much happiness on a vehicle, If you and your family are healthy look for happiness there and just save the money, when the vehicle is built, pay cash for it.
