  1. Ohhh, I've been a bad boy

    Yeah, this was a disaster of monstrous proportions. The upside is Ford caught how dealerships gamed the reservation system to some extent and how it broke some things and left many customers upset. I hope Ford repositions themselves to address these issues, and that they get to where they can...
  2. 🛠 10/4 build week group

    My modules popped up this morning. Maybe yours will show up later today. And congrats :)
  3. No Bronco Scheduling Upcoming Week (10/11)

    Things are moving quickly. My timeline today: 1:30 PM - "Built" e-mail 4:45 PM -"Shipped" e-mail with a note that it can arrive within 12 to 28 days. And my dealership tends to get them faster than that. The other Bronco they just sold went from shipped to sold in 10 days flat. I am hoping that...
  4. Reaching Out To Dealerships — Any advice, or feedback on the approach I now plan to take?

    This is what I would send personally: My Name is Uber Gadgetfreak. I'm looking to buy a 2022 four-door Bronco Badlands, with a hardtop, the 2.7-liter V6 engine, automatic transmission, and the Lux package. The attached PDF is from the Build & Price tool with my full desired configuration. I...
  5. Reaching Out To Dealerships — Any advice, or feedback on the approach I now plan to take?

    1: Don't tell them you have money. "I'm looking to spend a good chunk of my recent inheritance" - take that out. Leave the money until you are IN the finance office closing the deal. More on this a bit later. 2: On the build & price, the MY22 B&P tool opens later this week. When it does, PRINT...
  6. 🛠 10/4 build week group

    Got my built email at 1:32 PM today. No modules yet, but... the email says now I could get it between 10/30 and 11/5. The next three weeks will be an eternity :) [EDIT: 10.10 8:24 PM EST] And I got the SHIPPED email today, too. No estimated date change though. Dealership says that if they get a...
  7. Bronco Build Process Guide! - Window Sticker, Blend Date, Production Rotation Number, Built & Shipped Emails, Delivery Date Estimates & More

    This is from the top of my W/S: Sometime yesterday, the tracker updated with a delivery date (it wasn't there when I checked before lunch, but was later in the day): The modules still haven't popped, but otherwise it looks like I am on track with 27 days til I ride. I would check the...
  8. Dealership Markups

    The Bronco Fiasco is why all new orders have to have Photo IDs submitted through ROVP now. It helps them weed out some of it, but not all.
  9. Dealership Markups

    MSRP -Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price Since its only suggested, dealerships can add any markup they want. I will say its humorous to learn the local Jeep dealership's ads poking at them. "Stop waiting for your 4x4 and don't pay more! No markups at **** Chrysler-Jeep! Show us your...
  10. 🛠 10/4 build week group

    Yesterday, my modules page had the 'tear tag' value change. Got my estimated delivery date populated this morning: 11/5.
  11. Clicking noise after Bronco is not running

    With more electronic gizmos and gadgets, the ignition switch isn't in control. Some modules go through a shutdown process after ignition off. After they shut down or the shutdown times out, the relays kick off to prevent battery drain.
  12. window getting caught when opening door

    16 Mustang here myself. The windows would not index when I opened the door when I got it. Window reset, and now it indexes and is almost instant. They can index before the latch releases enough to open the door now.
  13. Possible remaining First Edition Bronco orders being canceled by Ford if not changed to non-FE trim [updated with official email]

    I got e-mails on the Top situation (originally was dual-top, but switched to MIC top after the e-mail on it), and figured if I didn't have an update on Sept 1, contact my dealer. Mine went Priority 01 back in July, and it's scheduled to be built today. From the original post, anyone with a...
  14. First Edition w/40 miles asking price $102,695!

    I only went for the First Edition because it saved me a few hundred bucks over the Badlands in the end. I have zero desire to sell it. And dang glad I got everything in writing, signed, duplicated, etc. to lock in my price. I just want mine so I can get back to nature, away from... People! :)
  15. This is the worst dealer I have seen yet

    A few things bug me here: 1. The DORA has a hand-written Rock Rails, but the First Editions come with them (per Ford.com - look at the Equipment Group Features - last item shown here): 2: The DORA is only a "price agreement" if both parties sign it with it noted 'agreed purchase price' or...
  16. Time to reorder 2021 Bronco

    My blend is 10/07. But yeah, maybe its just prep. I wonder if their tinkering somehow massaged a data sync, but now its only sync'd up to when they opened the order banks back in January. Who knows? Maybe it will be up to date by the time we trade them in LOL
  17. Wasn’t planning on financing, but…

    Look up "Charity Care Policy" for the medical facilities that helped you. These can vary a bit, but many people do not know that if you make 3x the poverty line income and have limited assets, you can get medical debt handled that way, and some are more lenient on assets you have so you don't...
  18. Time to reorder 2021 Bronco

    So, I have a VIN, a Window Sticker, and email saying production is this week, but now.. its time to order? And the picture doesn't match either... Entertaining to say the least :) Why do I hear John Fucik's Entry Of The Gladiators playing in my head today? :)
  19. Ain't this some shit? Read the link...

    I hope @Ford Motor Company is watching because it wasn't my dealership, but another asked me if I would put in a reservation for a MY22 to help them out. So yeah, even though they have the ROVP and Bronco reservation audit stuff, how do we report dealerships for this sort of shenanigans now?
