Yes, "Balanced" means pushed to the next model year, per Ford's lingo.

Thanks! Yeah, I had a 1998 TJ 4 cyl 5spd Sport, and a 2015 Willy Wheeler Unlimited JK auto softtop before.
Looking forward to experiencing a 2023 Rubicon JL *OR* a 2022 Bronco Badlands. Whichever is the winner will be a new experience, either way!
Yep. Badlands. 2 door. 7MT. Sasquatch. High package. No tow package...at least there's that!
Constrained out the wazoo.
It's cool, if Ford can't build it in 2022, maybe then can in 2025 or 2026.
Yup. 10/13/21 at 4:05 pm.
My dealer is highly responsive. There is a thread specifically for that dealer in the ORDERS forum, with an order spreadsheet that is updated regularly.
In late March, I was #11 on the timestamped list. I am now #7 on that list. Many order have filled in behind me. My...
This information is a bit dated.
The Bronco's Sasquatch option has forced Jeep to "improve the breed" by offering a factory solution of the Xtreme Recon package on the Willy and Rubicon trim levels.
Invoice for this package is $3596.
As with the Ford volume dealers, there are several Jeep...
Thank you! I do really hope Ford comes through. The reality is I'll already be waiting another month to place a Jeep order, and at that point it will be another 3-4 months to get a 2023 delivered, based on current info.
I could cancel or abandon the Jeep order if there is actual movement with...
My dealer has been quite transparent - I can't fault them in the least.
Ford shows my status unchanging for many, many moons.
Ford's customer line encourages me to contact my dealer.
July 14th 2022 will mark two years...730 days since I put down a deposit to get my name on the reservation...
...today I rejoined TREAD LIGHTLY to get the old 1% below invoice on a Wrangler
...I talked to a JL owner about likes/dislikes,
...and Jeep just updated their "Build and Price" with info on the 2023 Wrangler.
I've TRIED to be strong, but my 7/14/20 reservation for a 2 door, 7MT, high...

Funny, the unit is not listed on their webpage.
Haven't checked Yelp reviews yet to see if anyone is discussing this.
Go for it. A dealer will take your deposit and put in the order once the order banks re-open.
I'm a July 14, 2020 reservation holder, currently closing in on about two years in line. I placed the reservation on a whim, even though a didn't "need" a vehicle at that time. Now, 23 months later...
PenFed Credit Union is fairly easy to get into. Rates are currently 3.24%/60 and 3.29%/72. These are good for both new loans and for re-fis, so you could conceivably go with however your dealer papers you and then re-fi.
Flash forward to CAR & DRIVER, June 2028 issue:
"For some old school fun in the sun, there's no better option than a used Ford Bronco. Savvy buyers know to avoid the problematic 2.7 liter motor from the first two years, opting instead for the peppy 2.3."
