First- yes. Just marking the date. Second- this is from order date- not reservation. Itās weird how people get so twisted up over these posts. I would think we would be commiserating, not creating some weird competition of who has waited longest.
18 months into production and Ford can't produce more than 12k-13k per month. They can build 40K+ F150s and 20K+ Explorers in December but we can't crack 11k in Broncos built. Mavs are even worse...
The December production numbers are going to
Will be interesting to see December production numbers as it appears a lot of scheduled builds slipped into January. My guess is that the next scheduling week will be mid-February or even March builds.

Not sure I follow. Order banks have been closed since March so all production was spoken for at that point. There should be no available stock to sell outside of existing order holders or stock that may have been sitting at dealerships. Production for Broncos was actually down September, October...
"Ford Bronco dealer stock continues to turn in just 10 days ā a rate thatās stayed pretty much the same for a few months now ā but 85 percent of its retail sales in November came from previously-placed orders. That last number is interesting because in September, 99 percent of all new Bronco...
Me too... unscheduled clean doesn't really mean anything other than it's not a 99 order. I've been unscheduled clean for 11 months with a loaded WT that may never get built.
Ford wonāt feel the consumer brand backlash for years. They have four or five of the most popular new models in the US and they know it. In the meantime, they wonāt do anything or communicate any challenges with production or quality or customer satisfaction that could hurt their stock price-...
