HERITAGE EDITION Bronco Club

[BigFootie]

I received any email from Ford saying I have a scheduled Production date week of 8/14
I ordered the carbonized gray HE two door V6.
This is going to be our second bronco, we also have a black evergldes.

This means you officially go into production about a week or so before your blend date which is your scheduled date assuming it holds. This past week was an anomaly because of next week’s shutdown.

Today's issue with my Heritage!! Arghhhh. Went into the dealership today to square away my pricing before my Bronco arrives. Good news is that they are showing an ETA of 7/29 for my Heritage!!! Also, sales manager agrees to retail price protection and my price will be $47,090 vs current MSRP of $49,590. So far so good. Also, my private offer certificate shows in smart Vincent for $2595 with an expiration date of 10/3. Good as well. BUT....the system is showing that my certificate is not applicable to a Heritage Edition. Ford clearly stated that the private offers were applicable to all models except the Bronco Raptor and Heritage Limited Edition. Sales manager is reaching out to his Ford Rep. Can anyone out there confirm that the private offer certs are applicable to the standard Heritage Edition?? Tim???

It was supposed to be available on the standard HE, can't confirm it since none of us has delivered/picked-up yet but ...

Tim @FordVideoGuy or @Alpha1_Silverback or @Zach@Granger have you heard anything about the private offer not being available for a standard Heritage Edition?

Thanks in advance!!!

Here is something I saved from the Ford website last September.

Is there an approximate timeline from "built" to pickup at dealership from those w/ previous buying experience? Shipped to Philly, PA

If you read threads about delivery timelines you will see there is a high level of variability.
It mostly depends on whether they place a part hold on your build after completion, or whether they find something wrong with it during final quality control checks.

But for the most part, it takes several weeks (3-4) from built to shipped and delivered if everything goes smoothly.

If your dealer is close enough to the plant in Michigan it could be sent by convoy rather than rail and delivered a week or so after your build completion date.
Delivery to PA could very well be much faster, but, as an example, my Bronco # 1 was shipped by rail to Colorado and it took about a month from built, to shipped by rail, to picked up from the rail yard by truck and received at the dealership.
And that was with no known significant hold up and everything proceeding routinely.

According to the offer memo, the only trims not available is Raptor and Heritage Limited. I would need to reach out to the brand manager to clarify Heritage Edition. Hopefully it's just a glitch in their system. Someone didn't get the memo, lol.

Thanks Tim, Johnny on the spot as always!

So.... I was given a build date of 8/21 by Ford directly. I was given a VIN as well. But nothing has happened in the portal other than order confirmed. And since I did with my dealer, no back door view, just the front door. With no change.... I guess that is normal? Most of you have experienced similar situations? I figured it would populate more? I will say on my 2021 Badlands, nothing was in the portal. I had a confirmed order and it just showed up, ahead of the dates. The window sticker build date did not match tracker. Is that unusual or par for the course? 148 pages I have read thru makes me think y'all know more than Ford! It is nice to get some of the "inside info" from the plant moles. Just curious as I refresh my order page every morning!

08/26/20 reservation date, 3/1/23 order date. 4 dr race red 2.7 w/ tow. Originally scheduled for production 4/17, kept getting pushed 2 weeks about every two weeks until about 2 month ago. I got a VIN and a schedule date of the end of July, got pushed to 8/14 and it’s stayed there. I spoke to my dealer last week and he stated that if I have a VIN that it’s getting built. I went to check this morning and my VIN in gone, just shows blank and when I click on my order info it takes me to a page saying access denied. What does this mean? TYIA

consistent with this argument, capacities for Manual Transmissions is listed at 0% while they are currently producing MTs of all trims that were ordered prior to March 23.
would that mean that the listed production capacities are only accounting for March 23 orders ?

I'm not sure but any manuals they're building now were accounted for back when they were scheduled. At that point I would think there's a transfer of accountability or whatever that resets or pulls the parts needed for the next set to get scheduled. The list that got posted doesn't make it online very often so I don't know when it went to 0% for manuals or how they pre-plan for say Sasquatch parts but it all has to be ordered and sent to the vendor to send to them prior to the build date. I would think at that point then they'd consider that they have capacities to build what's scheduled but not necessarily what they have in the orders banks to schedule.

Honestly don't know, all this is beyond me but someone is tracking it somewhere in whatever formula works for Ford.

Par for the course. Front door tracker may not populate with build week until you get closer. Back door tracker populated almost 100% of the time. Front door, not so much.
