Painful (but responsible) solution to MIC issue decided. Announcement imminent.

Which military do you belong to? Clearly not American. My experience is they get transferred and promoted (Army).

My non-mil co-workers are usually mortified when I tell them of the things that go on. Or I was just a magnet for $hit. My wife asked me one time "why are you always on speed dial to get f$&#ed?"

Its not you. I witnessed the same.

My guesses:

- only MICs for ‘21 will be those produced already and FEs.

- MIC delayed until MY23 (idk what this would do to 2-door buyers)

- $1k in Ford Pass Points to all MIC orders up to this point


Whoever said the green being leaked meant bad news was coming was right lol

You guys get free swag incoming? You complain.
Ford finally is going to have transparency? You complain.
Ford fixes the problem everyone is worrying about? You complain.

I'd like to see what would make any of you happy. And if you say, "I just want my Bronco" with a straight face, I'd like to see how y'all have handled all the variables they dealt with, between pandemic, supply chain, unforeseen bad vendors, change in chief staff, and more.

Y'all are ungrateful and never pleased.

This was not my experience in the USAF.

Broncos in purgatory are being released in September. Starting with the first ones built first. if you have an issue with your roof then report it to your dealer. Not on here or any fb group.

God you guys bitch that you don’t have them. Then when ford releases them you still bitch. Look at any other industry. We are all having supply issues. Give them a break.

My sole bitch is Ford’s lack of communication while the vehicles are held. 40+ days!
Maybe it ends Thursday 8/12!

Sorry y’all I’ve been drinking can you catch me up on 46 pages real quick??

Slow night. You didn’t miss anything. Cheers.

Thought the soft top was also having issues as well?
Stitching
Sagging
Rubbing
Holes from the frame work poking it

Agreed. I do NOT want a soft top. Long term in my climate...won't last. A factory worker told me the soft tops are sh_t and the hard tops have huge quality problems. This entire thing is sad as hell. I also feel bad for my small Dealer. They have virtually nothing to sell.

wow, 47 pages, really? Wow.

Anyway, threads like this are so quick and easy to go through, just look for any posts by the OP, the rest is just made up stuff, speculation. I read 14 pages, gonna skip the rest. Let's just see what the next days bring, then we can start an other mega thread ;-)

I usually just read the first three pages, then the last three....

I just want my Bronco.

CONFIRMED: Soft-tops that are already built (even if they show “in production”) are still on track to be delivered. They will not be affected by the upcoming announcement.

I had this confirmed by someone at Ford, who is very knowledgeable about the Bronco situation. I can’t provide receipts, due to my source wanting to stay anonymous. So you’re just gonna have to trust me based on my previous track record.

Do you think Ford sues Webasto?

I'm sure there is more to this relationship than we know.......do we know who designed the top? Webasto or Ford? Is it made this way as not to violate any Jeep patents? I would imagine Ford approves of the initial design before it goes into production. Is it a design flaw? My guess is that it is going back for a redesign which is going to require retooling. Who's to say the mod top manufacturer will do any better? At this point, after building a new facility strictly for the Bronco, or so I have heard, Ford suing them would probably mean absorbing them and I don't think anyone wants that.
