All I can find on that is for the Sport, not the Bronco. Last I heard no dealer stock would be made till after the reservations is still enforce for the Bronco. Anyone found different?

You're thinking of stock units, not demo units. Demo units (also called mannequins or the FCTP units) are the Broncos that'll be built first and hanging around dealer lots for people to see, feel, and drive. They must sit on the lot for 7 months before being sold. Then Ford will build the ordered Broncos. This way nobody is joyriding in the ordered Broncos and there's always one on hand to check out. After all of the ordered Broncos (also called retail) are built, that's when Ford will make the dealer stock units.
Glad to hear about the 7 months, but that still may not be long enough. As for as potato v. patato... or shit from shinola, call them what you want but if a dealer can order a unit and f'n sell it that is dealer stock.
I, nor anyone else, really cares about the sport, sell all they want, but if dealers sell the mannequins then a LOT of people will be pissed. Just sayin'.

Penalties for selling mannequins include loss of allotment for a month. Dealers would be absolutely foolish to do so.

That changed 5 days ago.

For the Sport, but nothing has changed for the big boy. They're already done pumping out Sports for those who reserved them. They're building dealer stock for them now.

That has to be the saddest and most touching post I've read on this forum.
May your father RIP and may he ride your Bronco with you in spirit!

10 units Tuesday, 16 yesterday, 25 today. Only one scrap needed thus far, which is remarkable for a new unit with all new tooling.
It's quite possible that the MP2 phase will be skipped and they'll ramp straight thru MP1 to Job 1.

25 is very low per day
I will expect 200 bronco per day
For example jeep wrangler have production of more 200 per day they sell around 100 000 unit every year
Is MP2 just normally a ramp up in quantity made per shift? Does that mean that Job 1 would start sooner? You're teasing us LOL

It's literally the 3rd day of ramp up and a month ahead of Job 1. These numbers are great, especially with only one scrap.
