2023 Heritage or wait for 2024

@FordVideoGuy ,

Hi I was hoping you could shed some light for me. I just got a notice that my 2023 Bronco Heritage has just shipped to my dealership in TN. I also noticed that Ford raised the price by 1300 dollars. This coupled with travel to pick it up and drive it back puts it within 500 dollars if I just order the exact same build as a 2024. From what I can tell, the major difference is the larger 12 in screen and the Ford table in the back. I dont even want to table. I sold my old truck already so I do not have a car at the moment. How long do you anticipate a 4 door Heritage to be built and shipped in 2024? Right now my new build is just confirmed at the Florida dealership nothing from Ford. Trying to decide if I should take the 2023 however I wouldnt want to miss out the 2024 if it would be built by the summer. Know what I mean.

for 500.00, it might be better to wait, but then a bird in the hand is worth how many in the bush? It's hard to tell when they will get built but they seem to be putting out the 4 doors easier than the 2 doors.

My24 Sasquatch's are suppose to get the 3.0 steering rack, that's the biggest change I'm aware of.

I'm in the exact same boat. 23 is just about to ship and I have a 24 order in. When I called Ford, they told me that it has had some activity and has been "previewed". The price difference isn't much and I'm leaning towards waiting on the 24. The larger screen, table, and improved steering is probably worth the wait. Of course, when I see the 23, I'm going to have a hard time walking away!

Depending on how you are going to use your RIG, you may want to wait for the HOSS 3.0 system that are coming with the 24's.

If not a big deal, get the 23.

With only 5% allocated for Heritages for 2024 and approx 1500 2023s that didn't get scheduled plus those who had been waiting for order banks to be open to place their order back in August, there may not be much left for new orders. I'd talk to your dealer and see how many Heritage orders they have in already. If there are already a couple ahead of you, I'd guess it could be a bit before they'd get around to building yours. I am a 2023 carryover 4 door order that placed a 2024 order in August since I wasn't already scheduled and I never got scheduled for 2023. I got Scheduled with this recent round of specialty scheduling for week of Jan 15th. It realistically could be a couple months before they do anymore specialty scheduling again and with the shipping issues if you did get scheduled then it could realistically be the middle of next year before it would make it to the dealership. I personally would probably just get the 2023 instead of waiting and hoping to get a 2024.

First off, the dealer needs to provide the price protection on your 2023 order. Basically, you should pay the MSRP price at the time you ordered it, not the new MSRP price. I'll attach a document on this. Heritage isn't a fast scheduling configuration so it might take a long time. We finally got 6 of ours scheduled last week during a specialty only week. We ordered them originally on March 27th.

Thanks @FordVideoGuy I appreciate it. I did ask about price protection and they said they checked and my order did not qualify for it. ill make sure to show them this. Also thanks as well about the ordering of a 2024. I dont think I can go a year without a car. I truly appreciate you responding. Love your videos.

Not sure why your existing order wouldn’t qualify other than they would rather line their pockets. It doesn’t come out of their pockets, but it can be added to them.
