Thoughts on the modular top roof delay?

[MrsWestCoast]

Don’t quote me here, but all of the august scheduling should be done before that July 16 deadline. So you will know if you get scheduled with a MIC top by then. If you don’t get a scheduled email by July 16 then you can switch to the soft top w/ prep pack with no fear of missing out. If that makes sense.

You said it perfectly. Thank you!

This was the bomb, no need to fear more bad news next week.

That was a very appropriate response, especially in relation to the meme I posted earlier in the day lol

Will have to wait for a MY23 2 door badlands with Mod top… oh but what do you know, they discontinue the Manual transmission with the introduction of the Hybrid model

Another Bronco email I didn’t get but thanks for giving hope to this 2 door Wildtrak order holder

How many people are just going to wait for the Raptor now? I always knew I likely wouldn't get my BL until mid next year so I recently decided to just wait for the Raptor and now it's looking like my BL wouldn't even arrive until the Raptor is out.

I will be ordering the raptor the first minute I can and then sell my soft top Bronco.

Output at Webasto is normalizing but not at a rate that will keep up with current demand.

There are, um, other things in the works now to remedy the problem.

They're slower, uglier processes, but the supplier hasn't really left them a choice.

I haven't read all 7 pages yet, please forgive if this has been addressed....

From a 2dr vs 4dr perspective, what does Webasto's output look like?
IE: are they focusing on the 2dr version and 4dr FE'S because that crowd is left no other option?
From the get go, all it has been is hard top /soft top debate and NEVER any mention of what all this means for the 2 door crowd.

To be clear, I have a feeling I don't have a dog in this race, my build date has remain unchanged and is soon.
I really just want clarity for the rest of my 2dr brother and sisters.

Wondering how I should feel with a VIN / Build date of 7/21 (moved up from the original "build week" of 26th) for my MIC 4 door....hmm

I was scheduled to be built Monday. Pushed to 7/21 build day. Hopefully no more push backs

I am not able to discuss numbers, but FEs will 100% be built out for MY21 and 2 door customers are in really good shape.

I'm confused at how many this actually impacts? By the time I got off my arse and starting using the configurator at ford.com to build my Bronco, there were only two options: Soft Top or MIC top. I chose the MIC, because in Michigan....I wanted a hard top.

It sounds like my order won't be impacted, but perhaps there were a whole slew of people that ordered a 'Mod Hard Top' that has since then been hidden from the Build My Bronco configurator??

Lol, even your vague information is solid!!!

Gosh, one piece of reassurance in a sea of uncertainty for so many.
Thank you!

I'm personally done with this whole roof shit. I'm not making a compromise and driving around with a soft top or a vehicle that's half painted. Crazy. No one should be putting up with this.

This vehicle isn't ready

Yeah, let’s all cancel!!!

(Except I’m staying, you all go and clear the line).

Obviously some people are going to be impacted. We were waiting for a black mod top to go with our Wildtrak, but I likely won't wait until MY23 for that. We actually just got a Wrangler for my wife since she was tired of waiting. I'm waiting to see what's offered for MY22 and will likely totally change our 4 door WT order to something with 2 doors. Carbonized MIC doesn't bother me on most colors. I did think the mod was going to match the WT better though. I likely won't stick with the WT....so maybe this whole thing will get me a Bronco earlier if people really are going to hold out for mod tops.
