John, any update on where things stand overall? Seeing orders that were placed a month ago get scheduled has me a bit on tilt. Not with SAC, just with the process of it all. Do you know for those without VINs will we have to reorder and will you be reaching out to us or can you give insight to the timing of it all? Did SAC opt to do anything with the $1K customer satisfaction allotment? Is SAC seeing more cars scheduled? Will there be a clean cut over to 22 (October?)or are we bleeding through weeks until no weeks are left in 21? I'm in it till then end but most of what we are operating on is speculation so I'm trying to put the puzzle together. It'll happen when it happens for sure but the wait and lack of comms is getting old.
Thanks John for the prompt response and transparency as always. I am really glad that I am working with you all on this and I know you are doing the best you can with the information that is there. I am looking forward to my trip down there when this all gets settled.The original info I have from Ford is, and I have not seen anything to the contrary, you must have a timestamp prior to Sept 18 2021 to get scheduled to be built in 2021. That being said, these customers stating that they just put in an order, were they already a 99 with prior-to 9/18 timestamps and decided to go ahead and place an order? I have not seen where this is against any plans/policies by Ford. True, they just submitted their real order, but, the actual order was priority 99'd back months ago, so they were in the system even though they didn't configure the order.
Now, if there's people with brand new reservations or post 9/18 reservations getting their Broncos, this, I cannot understand nor comment on because that's a Ford policy decision.
As far as those without VINs, yes, from my understanding, you will need to re-order and I have plans in place to 1) notify you of the pending opening of 22 order banks and 2) calling you to get the new configuration/order. As for timing, my gut says Oct 1, but it may be a bit later than that. Again, no real info from Ford, I just know it's going to be in the 4th Quarter.
As for the $1000 - that's "up to" $1000 and that's a reimbursement from Ford. We have to work on the program and make sure that Ford will reimburse for whatever, if anything, we decide to do with that promotion as we're working on a very slim margin.

details of build along with reservation time?Guys, I got my window sticker last night for a blend date of 9/24. MIC tops are moving again.
4 Door Badlands, 2.7, Lux, squatch, MIC top.details of build along with reservation time?
awesome, grats! changing my order when banks reopen to almost exact same except high instead of lux. I'm thinking with an early AM 7/14 timestamp I'll be within the first 2-3 months of 2022 builds but who knows.4 Door Badlands, 2.7, Lux, squatch, MIC top.
reserved 2 hours after premiere video. Original build week was 7/19. Been kicked multiple times.
Curious if anyone in here has picked their Bronco up from Stephens in the past few weeks. Trying to get an idea of how long on average it takes for the vehicle to get built and then delivered to Stephens. The answers on the forums are all over the place considering proximity and delivery method.
Have they given you any info on that price protection? I might want to switch to Outer Banks SAS from Wildtrak, but with all the same packages. Any idea if that will mess up my price protection?The original info I have from Ford is, and I have not seen anything to the contrary, you must have a timestamp prior to Sept 18 2021 to get scheduled to be built in 2021.

According to Zach at granger, you’re covered as long as you had your reservation or order, don’t remember which, before 3/19.Have they given you any info on that price protection? I might want to switch to Outer Banks SAS from Wildtrak, but with all the same packages. Any idea if that will mess up my price protection?
That's not my question, though. Ford specified something like "similarly equipped" so I'm trying to find out what that entails.According to Zach at granger, you’re covered as long as you had your reservation or order, don’t remember which, before 3/19.
no price protection on new or unannounced models
