Email from Ford - How to increase chances of getting your Bronco sooner

[Rocket]

Get you want on your Bronco and you will be happy and be patient
Your Bronco will be built and you will be happy so what if you wait a year. I was three years restoring my 78. Do it right and get what you want.

Would love to get mine early, not gonna be pissed if i get pushed back, but there’s definitely some people on here i would like to see pushed back for being an a-hole...

Now I’m intrigued......scrolling back to find all the a-holes.

Well, that was a exercise in futility.....no obvious a-holes.

I have the lux package ordered also. Sh*t.

I have Lux and am scheduled. As far as I know, that is not a limiting factor.

Let me see if I’ve got this straight......B&P rollout=modular painted blacktops, MIC tops, soft tops, dual tops all available. At some point later=Modular painted black tops deemed late availability and only available in MY22 (which really screwed up WTs since their entire paint scheme was based on the black painted glossy top) At some point later=no dual tops and everyone wanting a MY21 must change their order to soft top or MIC top. And yet later=MIC top is seriously constrained and will get your build pushed back to an as of yet undetermined future date......so only order soft tops.......however, 2dr’s can’t even be ordered with the soft top.
Does that about cover it? But, but, but, COVID......... During the first 16 months of WW2 US manufacturing cranked out 88,000 tanks, 332,000 aircraft, 7,333 warships, 40 billion bullets, and 600,000 Jeeps......while every Abbie-bodied male was off fighting Nazis, and a woman factory worker made $32 per week. I guess things have changed.

Well yeah everything has changed. Everybody wants cheap shit now so we depend on China for our manufacturing base.

You are correct Sir. Perhaps China will be so kind as to build our war machines for us during our ramp-up to the next world war.......uhm, I doubt it since it’s highly unlikely we’ll be on the same side next go-around.

But no way I'd add that 10r60 auto!!!

If the Bronco were only available with the auto-magic it wouldn't even be a contender.

Below is the Bronco Production Scheduling Memo which was posted by @BravoV4, a dealer, showing his email received yesterday from Ford. Shows what the hang ups are how to increase your odds making the next round of scheduling. Seems like the MIC tops are the biggest hang up, and may be for a while.

Well let’s see they shut down the black hard tops for this model year because of issues. What did they think was going to happen. This has been a nightmare for them. I will not change anything on mine because I want what I want. But for them to not be prepared it’s getting ridiculous. I know they can’t control some things but this whole process has not been fun. But again they can’t control a lot of things but just seems like they really weren’t prepared for many things.

Maybe not in this thread, or their posts get deleted quickly (which happens more than we realize according to the mods that have talked about it) but there is a fair amount of assholery going on around here from time to time.

I'm fairly certain I've been accused of that a time or two.

Send out my two door topless in September. I'll figure it out.

Is it possible to get a 2 door topless?

I reserved two FE's the first night and still haven't received a email for a build. As far as I can tell Ford can't even full fill their first night reservation holders. Putting priority builds in front of us was just wrong, another extremely bad corporate decision IMO.

Can we please have the person who suggested priority builds step forward.

A vast majority of people with Day 1 reservations coupled with a fairly loaded build (2.7 sas MIC) don’t have assigned build dates yet.

honestly, I’d say the information posted in this thread is some of the worst news update we’ve seen. Not to be overly negative, but the July builds were supposed to be the thing we were really hanging on to to get the balance of Day 1 reservations scheduled. Seems like that’s not the case for most...again...and August build/September delivery seems like BEST case scenario, and could easily be later.
