I have only two data points:
1) the dealer sales rep say in the May timeframe she will call with the VIN # and production date
2) this is what was attached to the 2/25 Ford confirmation of order email promising 3 further emails (with the first not saying it would include a firm date). But in the body they talk about an "estimated delivery window" which may be the May information from the dealer or in the Scheduled for Production email:

Bronco™ SUV deliveries will begin in summer 2021 and based on current demand will extend through the 2022 calendar year. We anticipate some customers will receive a 2022 model‑year Bronco. The actual delivery date of your Bronco will depend on reservation timestamp, vehicle model and configuration selected, part constraints and the number of Bronco vehicles your dealer will receive. Throughout the production process, we will keep you updated on the status of your Bronco and email you an estimated delivery window. You will also receive an email when your Bronco BIG BEND is:​

• Scheduled for Production — all necessary parts are secured, and your order has been placed in the production schedule.​

• Built — your vehicle has been built, and we will let you know of the estimated arrival date at your dealership.​

• Shipped — your vehicle has been shipped, is on its way to your dealership, and we’ll include the latest estimated arrival date.​

Yeah. Anyone who converted prior to this past Friday will receive their “estimated delivery window” in May.

This is different from your build being “scheduled.” That is when your VIN is assigned and you’re a few weeks out from the parts being bolted together.

They should be able to share how many orders are in and what their production rate is expected to be. In other words, a ball-park estimate on how long will it take to deliver on current orders (assuming no parts shortages).

When does MY22 orders start for people with a reservation in? And more important when do we get to see what some of the updates/changes were they we waiting for?

August or September.

My formative music years! Except that while Tiffany was a remake back then, this version is a remake again.

Wasn't there a post on dealers or Ford contacting customers in April offering option changes to boost their chance of an earlier delivery date ? Searched but couldn't find it.

I was told that in May if your order was being held up by certain options you could switch then.
I am all in on my build though 2dr Badlands with squatch and 2.7. Early reservation and fit into my dealers allotment so still hoping a 2021

They could but they won't.

It sounds like it is beginning soon, per @Zach@Granger
