Three questions from a newbie

[kapk22]

Anyone actually have an idea when the first Broncos will be delivered? I keep reading June, maybe July, maybe 2022....

If one were ordered now, when would it realistically deliver?

Not certain when the order banks will change/open to 2022 model years, however, same question... let’s say they open in June. What would be a realistic time frame for delivery?

**** I am aware of the chip shortage. Just wondering your guys’ thoughts.

thank you

1. Early summer, June/July sounds consistent with previous posts
2. At least 12 months from now, possibly a late MY22 but totally depends upon what you order and supplies. If you avoid whats referred to as the deadly sins, your order could be delivered much sooner.
3. Order banks for MY22 will probably be late summer early fall, but its just a guess.

There's still a great deal of uncertainty how the chip shortage and pandemic related delays in commodities will change things. If you need a new car, this is not for you right now. If you're willing to wait and make a $100 refundable deposit on a reservation, then I would suggest making it soon.

My vehicle is fine for another year or two, so I plan to wait for now.

This process is so insane, I’m thinking of reserving again soon, so maybe the second res will be available by the time I want to trade my alleged my21 rapid red base for whatever trim package is available in green....

thank You for the info. I really appreciate it. This helps us with making our decision.

Welcome to the Thunderdome. You have not been inundated with links. Ford has committed to all 2021s being customer orders, no dealer stock other than dealer mannequins. They have not made that commitment for 2022 models. It's a crap shoot, but you may not end up waiting as long as some of us. The cut off for guaranteed 2021 price on a '22 has come and gone. Best of luck!!!

I assume they have not committed to doing the same for MY22 merely because as they work down the backlog they will get to the point where they don’t have enough diversity in the order banks to be able to build only them.

Meaning they will need to fill gaps in parts availability for retail orders with stock production to keep the lines running. (Even currently we’re seeing Ford reach waaaaay out for low trim soft tops just to fill the slots).

In any event, with the back of the napkin math I suspect Ford will catch up with all backlogged retail orders by the end of MY22, in that anyone ordering today would still be My22…

The *vast* majority of reservations were from the first few days… it’s been a relative trickle since then. Those first days are where most of the backlog lies.

Of course, all that is just wild speculation on my part.

well,

we are just thinking about getting a sport for her and a full size in a few years.

I would hope that in a few years you would be able to get one at a dealership or be able to order without a long delay. If you are thinking 18 months to 2 years then I would go ahead and reserve one. It is $100 but refundable so you do not have to decide now or be committed.

That’s a good point.

The interior dimensions are basically identical between the sport and full size bronco (ducks for cover - since most haven’t realized that) but you do get slightly bigger cargo, but not by much. The bronco exterior is just bigger, and Sasquatch is even wider

So just know you’re not really picking up interior space by going with the full size
