Wonder what the commodity shortage was...

This timing has nothing to do with commodity shortage as far as i know. They planned on starting this yesterday, so a one day difference isn't a big deal.

I can confirm, tooling is cycling on Bronco side of the shop. 6 so far, three 3door and three 5 door so far

What does "tooling is cycling" mean? Robots are starting to move and stuff?

Great news! Now can we please have no more posts about chip shortages, ships stuck in a canal, supplier issues or any type of delay.

Probably not.

Oh the OP said commodity shortage. I am assuming they just got something a day late though.

Doors. Sorry 4 door guys and gals!

Does this mean we will see a crash test video soon?

Sure, just not a government one. Some pinhead will take their Fiesta in for service and get to be the first one to drive the Bronco. They'll wrap it around a tree and it will be on the news. They'll be quoted as, "OMG! that was a new Bronco?"

All of us will then look like Andrew_EOD (See his post above.)

Honestly, I just can’t wait to get one to my dealership so I can actually sit in one. I’m so freaking excited! Nobody here gets my excitement, LOL. I wish I was there, seeing what you’re seeing!

I'm 100s of miles away, watching Expeditions being built...but I can still see....

Exactly

The real question is... Who’s on the line taking pictures for us? Let’s see these beauties roll down!

Pop the corks! After a commodity shortage delayed yesterday's planned start, Bronco officially entered Phase 1 Mass Production at 8:30 a.m. today. These early builds will be used for press rides and dealer demos, and the official Job 1 date remains unchanged as 5/3, legally sellable, VIN numbered Broncos are moving thru the dedicated MAP body shop on their way to final assembly.
