lol.July 14th and earlier should be fine.
Seriously folks as is usually the case with a high profile vehicle launch this backlog isn't going to last. My guess is by this time next year there will be plenty of Broncos on dealer lots and you won't need or care about a reservation. There will be used ones as well. Remember the P.T Cruiser, Mazda RX8, and others? We are in a time of fast rising gas prices and that is only going to get worse. I could be wrong, production disruptions could play into it as they did this year. Nevertheless I would be surprised if there isn't rows and rows of Broncos by the end of 23.
they can't get it done because they don't have the parts to build those kind of numbers right nowCan you give us an opinion on this: There are an estimated 110,000 orders remaining...pushed to MY22. We have been told MAP can produce 500 Bronco-Rangers per shift which is 1,000 a day (2 shifts). The planned mix is 60% Broncos to 40% Ranger = 600 Broncos a day X 6 days a week x 4.3 weeks a month = 15,480 per month. 110,000 divided by 15,480 = 7=8 months. Theoretically, with available parts....Ford could have ALL this back log of reservation holders-orders all built by mid-August. So why can't they get this done? Or is something else going on they won't tell us about....like other stock being made, further parts issues (that they are aware of and won't tell us)? I am worried I won't even get mine in 2022 now. I supported my small town Dealer too.
But we have another brand new release, the Maverick....showing up on lots for sale. I get some supply issues but for reservation holders from July 2020, maybe not even getting their orders delivered in 2022..........Ford needs to do better!they can't get it done because they don't have the parts to build those kind of numbers right now
The Maverick doesn't have the same kind of hype and backlog as the Bronco. Have to be honest I'm tempted by it especially the 40 MPG! Some reviewers are reporting 43 MPG! If only I can talk myself out of AWD.But we have another brand new release, the Maverick....showing up on lots for sale.

My point was that they have the parts and are building it (Maverick)!!!!!!! It is brand new and released after the Bronco. I just came from re-ordering my Bronco....my Dealer has almost as many Maverick orders as Broncos. Any bet which one's end up in garages first?The Maverick doesn't have the same kind of hype and backlog as the Bronco. Have to be honest I'm tempted by it especially the 40 MPG!

Even if @Ford Motor Company company can get all the parts they want they have broken their promise about building reservations before stock. With the 2022 allocation formula the big dealers will get stock units years before Grangers gets all of their reservations filled.they can't get it done because they don't have the parts to build those kind of numbers right now
I am going to have to ask where all those November 2020 mail in ballots, I mean reservations, came from...Tried to brush off my Excel skills. You can see the initial surge of the orders and the secondary bump through October due to GrangOctober effect. My order is end of October, if I would be the beginning of October, much better position.
Frankly I believe Ford will need to do something with the remaining 2021 reservations at the end of 2022.
