Reaction to somber news from Ford Offer's Option Number 4

[Newbie]

It's snowing on a freezing night. A little boy walks along the street, his head and feet bare. He's selling matches, but he's had no buyers all day. He can't go home to his father without any money. He's getting numb from the cold. He wonders if he should dare to light one of his matches for a brief flash of warmth.

Option #4 per https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/thre...ers-modify-order-to-remove-constraints.63576/

How is it that this is sad and not funny but funny all at the same time?

heh. Yah, that "Walk away" doesn't need to be there. They could have just said 'cancel order' and we'd all get what they mean.

Unfortunately, from what I've seen some people say on here, it's not "walk away" but "run away and never look back" at this point.

It really just shows how much Ford doesn't appreciate the customer who has been willing to wait for a Ford product. Don't walk away mad just walk away. LOL

Man Ford needs to learn how to be sincere.

Yea if this happens I will be sure to have as many people as I can do just what they say in #4

Walk Away from Ford Forever!

I am mighty dang thankful I have a 2 door Wildtrak in the driveway right now.

For folks who have been officially riding this buckin' bronco order process from the start and still don't have a vehicle...my hat is off to you. In the HVAC industry, lead times are up to a year+ for custom commercial units...its seems that maybe the norm moving forward for some time, so I can understand Ford is dealing with sourcing issues too...but this must be the perfect storm of storms for an auto maker.

It looks like they were just drawing numbers from a bingo machine thus far to get broncos out the door... and now pressing the eject button to clear the books as much as possible.

Walk Away appears to be WildTrak only. It is not included in non-WildTrak orders per the picture.

Just left a furniture store, “you want a couch, it’s a 6 month wait.”

I’m also glad my OBX, with every option, is being built this week. A couple months ago, I deleted the tow package. A week week later , I said “screw it, put it back on. I’ve waited almost 2 years, I might as well get what I want.” We’ll see how long it takes to get delivered, but at least it’s moving in the right direction.

Oh, and I see Walk Away as meaning you want a Jeep or a Toyota instead? Hopefully someone with reading comprehension at Ford will edit that before it goes public tomorrow.

 

[Bronco79]

I'm pretty sure this guy sill works at Ford. LOL

 

[Lcubed]

that ineos grenadier is starting to look more likely, especially given option #4.

Just walk away, Renee
