They told all the order holders that have been waiting two years that they had to drop their hard tops and luxe packages. Then they build them for brand new order holders form March of this year. No reason so many people have a bad taste in their mouth for Ford.

My build date updated on 6/2. Date was 7/14. Just checked again and it updated on 6/10. New date is 7/10. The saga continues.

Yeah, I got bumped from 6/26 to 7/10. I should have bought a Wrangler two years ago. This will be two summers waiting.

Car and Driver tested a 4 door Wildtrack. It only managed 17mpg on their highway loop. And you really need premium fuel to take full advantage of the power the Ford eco boost engines produce. The Bronco has one of the worst MPG ratings of any new vehicle.

You realize the Bronco gets worse gas mileage than the Bronco with its "modern" engine and 10 speed auto, right? On a recent road trip in my 4Runner TRD PRO, with its ancient 4.0 and 5 speed auto I got 21.9 mpg on regular gas.

Yeah. I'm seriously starting to lose hope. I ordered in 2021 and already lost the summer of 2022 and now it looks like no Bronco for summer of 2023. I was originally scheduled for 3/27. Latest was 6/26 but that date just disappeared. Guessing I'll be bumped to July or August. I suppose there is...

I agree. I'm a Toyota/Lexus guy. I was comparing the Defender to the Bronco

You might be wrong on that front. Previous generation Tundra TRD PRO stickered for around $56k. The new gen came out at around $70k. Massive price increase. I have a 2023 4Runner TRD PRO in solar octane. I paid MSRP of $56k. I'm willing to bet the next gen will be close to $70k. It's gotta be at...

Exactly! And the Defender is totally in another class. People are gonna get on you and say, "Yeah, but you can't take the top and doors off." I get it. I do. If that's your thing, a Defender wouldn't make you happy. But if you're not really gonna take advantage of that, how could you not choose...

New Vehicle pricing is completely out of control across the board. How people can afford these new vehicles is beyond me. People have to be over extending themselves. I was at my Ford dealership a couple of weeks ago checking on my Bronco order, as I have been for the last year and a half 🙄, and...

Here's an example on pricing of a current GX at a local dealer. Cheaper than most Broncos you'll see on a local lot. Which one do you think will still be running strong at 200k miles? I'm guessing there isn't a Bronco made today that will still be on the road at 200k.

This really is true. I know the current GX is outdated. I get it. But, sit inside a current GX. Compare the materials and build quality. Consider it has a smooth V8!!! And it gets about the same fuel mileage as the Bronco. I can get a GX for under $60k with a small discount. I know. I know...you...

So it looks like 2 doors won't be getting built this month. Ugh.

The interior materials are some of the worst I've ever seen since the days of the Yugo. Stuff like that is meant to be expected.

I moved from 6/20 to 6/26.

Mine is now blank as well. Might get moved to next week. Might get bumped into August. Who knows?

It's nearly impossible to make plans as there's no way to know when your Heritage will arrive. Will it actually get built? If it does, will it sit for a month before being shipped? Will it arrive at the dealership in 2 weeks or three months? Will a stop sale be issued? No way to know anything...

Look at the bright side. If Ford keeps allowing price protections and keeps issuing private offers for each year our vehicles aren't built, we'll end up getting them for free when they arrive in 2075!

Because Ford doesn't give a crap about it's reservation and order holders. They're feeding the dealers. You can be replaced. That's how Ford does business.

Supposedly the 2024 order banks open in August with 2024 production scheduled for Oct?? Is that true? If so, it only leaves you another 8 weeks or so of wiggle room before they have to cancel 2023 orders?
