who thinks it might be a good idea if we started mass tweeting replies like: "Why has ford abandoned thousands of its bronco customers with no communication as their vehicles rot in an overflow lot?" to every single post Fomoco and Levine make? would all the bad publicity to every single post they make incentivize them to communicate with us and work to solve this problem? I have been doing it myself to no avail but what if everyone on here did it so that they were getting dozens or hundreds of negative replies to their posts and we all had a similar message?

I have been starting to insert similar comments in various Ford posts and tweets. Honestly the only way we get our situation addressed in a “reasonable” amount of time is if we also find out and tag the various auto industry stock analysts and writers that follow Ford and they then pick up on the fact Ford appears to be playing loose w the produce vs built vs shipped math. The latest rumor that they are grabbing/ reusing chips from ice mtn units to keep the assembly line moving if actually true, would def support someone trying to goose up the numbers.
Here are some of the auto industry big whig analysts. Plus just found out adding $F. Makes the tweet go on the ford branding link. 😬 my Twitter skills are basic.

Good ideas but I think it’s really a lost cause unfortunately. I’m just as frustrated but decided other than venting here I’m just on this sad ride until or if I get my bronco. It’s not right for sure. But for some strang reason it doesn’t matter to Ford. They will only pay for it in the long run. IMO there are dark cloud ahead. The 100 year old culture and technology is about to catch up.

Honestly don’t know what the issue is but something is def off. you would think they would figure out how to push the oldest pending in production orders out being the auto production experts. Instead I am reminded of the clowns getting out of the cars at the circus when I think of the ops executive team.

Honestly, I said almost the exact thing to my husband just now. I got laughed at when I asked the lady from customer service if Ford was just using the chip hold as an excuse for something else that was wrong.

97 days that’s less than a chip hold! What is the change??
Not so much, change. However, the 661 days, to date, of waiting....yeah, that would do it. I hard line in the sand stated end of this month or I was out. I very much so meant it. I would just go find something else and put this in the history books as a lesson learned.

I am going to ride it out until either delivery or reorder for MY2023. I have an insane amount of accessories ready for when my unit eventually makes it out of the ice mtn chip shelter n to its forever home.
I did an inventory today as honestly forgot what was buried in my storage plus some ZROADZ rock steps in the garage.
On a positive note. I did discover I have an extra pair of bronco depot script emblem in gloss black I don’t need if someone is interested.

Because it’s clear to me that it’s all about the money and convenience for Ford at this point. If they havent figured out a plan to clear out Ice Mountain, it’s by choice or the plan was to ignore them for the ease of just spitting out complete vehicles. Customer service be damned! They have Bronco Raptors to start building soon! Doesnt appear Ford will have a day of reckoning on the Ice Mountain inventory, either, to force their hand.
It’s always been this.

There’s not a chip shortage. The Bronco Raptors will be rolling of the line in short order and I promise there will be no ice mountain of those.

Ford temporarily cared at the end of Q1 and that’s the only reason I took delivery a few weeks ago. If prior history is anything, they may briefly give a damn at the end of Q2. The common thread is shareholders > customers.

This is what I’ve been saying that at the end of each quarter I bet they’ll be a small push but I think this holding lot situation will go on for the forseeable future. Anyone still holding onto hope that their vehicle is gonna miraculously show up by some random day in May when it’s still in production is unfortunately probably in denial.

For what it’s with, every morning when I see useless tweets from @mrlevine I respond back with a comment asking about my Bronco. Also including @TheSaidDeep @jimfarley98 and now @MikeMartinez_AN (although he’s probably bought and paid for by Ford).

Tag all tweets with the hashtags #DirtMountainBronco and #BuiltWild and #Ford in an effort to tie their social media efforts to the debacle with our Broncos.

Will it work? Highly unlikely, but it will make me feel better.
