Northern Illinois

Anyone in Northern Illinois lucky enough to receive a build date yet?

I have a VIN and 7/19 build date. 4dr BB 2.3 manual with soft top (changed from MIC and removed tow, got schedule) 7/18 rez date. Was told I was #7 out of 23 initially allocated at dealer.

Yep. Scored. I reserved 8/14 I think, a month late, ordered Ground Hog's day, got a build for 7/19 week! No good reason. Dealer was shocked! And sad that the had to tell others way ahead of me that they're not building yet....No idea how it works, but happy happy. We can have beers in the drive when it shows up and you all can come take a look and pre-beers short drive. Seriously.

I have a reservation around the same time as you. 8/7 I think? What was your build? No date for me yet

Didn’t really need the tow except for bike rack and loved the soft top functionality after seeing it in person in Tinely Park (had a soft top TJ in the past, liked it and the Bronco soft top is even more convenient). No big compromise for me.

My build date is 08/02, before that it was 07/12, and before that it was 06/21! But I'm happy I have a VIN. The sad thing about this waiting is that those who haven't received a VIN, which is a bunch of peeps, they're going to waiting even longer...unless Ford kicks it in high gear!

Hmm I’m BL/7spd/towing/hard top. Pretty sure the hard top and tow are what’s holding mine up.

I had a build week of 6/21 originally, then week of 7/5, then build day of 6/28, and now a build day of 7/2. 4dr, BL, 7MT, soft top, tow, non sas. I was an early morning 7/14 res. Happy I got a vin and an ever-evolving build date, but hoping production picks up soon so we all can finally get what we have been waiting for!

I would totally take you up on that. You 2DR or 4 DR? I'd love to finally see a 2DR in person before finalizing my order. I was originally going to defer to MY22, but with opting out of Sas package, and my only other constraint being the MIC top, if Ford starts running the electrical and plumbing on soft tops if wanted, I would switch to only soft top to get it sooner

4 Dr, sorry! No squatch.

I haven't seen one, but I keep checking the local Ford dealers in Kane County when I'm out-and-about while working!

My dealer in Libertyville had been telling me he's getting his 2 door wildtrack very soon.

I'll check how long since I bugged him.
