June 7th. Anyone else?

[casbar]

Has anyone else been told to watch for it? My dealer did and it's not even a Thursday. I was told it's my last chance for a MY21.

Idk about last chance for a 21. They still have 5 more months to build Broncos.

True. I'm a wildtrack so maybe that's why. Hoping for the best for all of us.

I find it odd that the only builds schedule have been June-July. And some in early August? So what about the rest of August-December? Either Ford is waiting for a later date to schedule builds in those months or they are suffering from part shortages where they can't build any more complete vehicles.

Being mostly built is one thing. Waiting for chips and tops while our rigs are sitting in the yard is another. I hope I'm wrong.

With the dynamics presented from tops, chips, tow package, etc…, do you suppose they are staying nimble? I would surmise that constraints will determine clean builds and imagine that scheduling too far out could be futile.

Nope. Looking for more soft top orders by June 7th so they can schedule in June for August production.

This^^^
It's month to month. July for September- etc

I ain't changing my order. I hope you guys are right but I'm afraid they could be securing future warranties just to get orders out there with shit tops that have already been manufactured. They have to get the broncos out there cause we are raising hell. Build date means nothing until ship dates start coming in. I want my bronco but not until quality control is up to par.

June 7, 202?

I don't get this 'last chance at MY21 panic around here, there are several more MONTHS to build these things, they seem to schedule them month by month, which makes sense in a just in time environment. They're not gonna build nothing in Aug-Dec. SMH

Yes, after speaking to my dealer on Saturday he relayed that same date, said it was from his regional rep. I had initially called to get hard numbers from him about the dealers numbers. We are 7/64 with 0 VINS so far. I’m interested for sure to see what’s gonna be so special about the 7th

Hadn’t thought of this. It is weird that scheduling volume is down and it all stopped around July/August (after the new, new delays of course).

It's not weird - they have said all along that they will continue to schedule month-to-month. In June, lots of people will get August build dates. In July, September dates.

They aren't going to schedule any further out yet as I'm sure their suppliers are already struggling to give them semi-accurate projections for two months out...

So we shouldn't expect emails tomorrow (6/3) even if we already ordered a soft top at conversion and expect emails to start June 7th?

This is a copy paste of mine from another thread, applies here.

Not sure why this keeps coming up. As of last Thursday Ford was still booking builds through July. If we still believe that they are building 2021's through November and then changing over in December for 2022 (as has been stated ad nauseam), then we still have all of August, September, October and November for builds. I would imagine we will continue to hear about build dates all throughout the Summer until they are booked through November. I understand everything is subject to change, but I think this is the general consensus until we are told differently.

If cadence holds true, next Tuesday (the 8th) dealers will see what Ford is previewing for that Thursday and on Thursday the 10th people, in theory should get e-mails about a build week. One unknown might be whether they have filled up July as of last week and will be moving on to August or might some builds next week still fall in July.
