Why Is Ford Still Taking 2021 Reservations?

[shimmy825]

It doesn't matter what I reserved, there is zero chance for me to get a 2021 because my order won't be even be submitted until 9/13/21 at the earliest when 2022 order banks open. My dealer already confirmed that.

So it is definitely impossible for anyone to even place an order with Ford at this point? Or is that specifically only for MY22 and that if I did want a badlands soft top with minimal upgrades (the only being a 2.7 and the lux package) they could feasibly still place the order?

Yeah, this is what I'm confused about.

If @Dogula wants a MY22 only option, then yes... of course you can't submit an order for MY21... I too am waiting for an MY22 option.

...but I had not heard of MY21 order banks closing. Why would Ford do that? They need all the buildable My21s in the system they can get... besides, it's against their self interest to *not* take more and more orders in general.

Plenty of other industries in the same predicament or worse.

It could have been the smoke detector or sometimes it's the sound of the call being recorded.

This was the smoke detector.

Now that we know that there is no way they will fulfill a 2021 reservation placed today, tomorrow, etc..., why is Ford even accepting reservations for a 2021? Personally, I just wish Ford would start out with MY22 Bronco's with deliveries mid to late next year. Just run 'em all for MY22.
