So, at what point do you bail? I'm almost at 7 months and will wait longer but there's no way I'm waiting 700 days. I will go to a plan B eventually and think about the Bronco in a couple of years. I admire y'alls patience.

Exactly, no envy created by those who get scheduled. We’re all sitting on the bench with the occasional “you mean I’m not getting built next week?” thrown in the mix. Misery loves company. I’m headed back over to the plan b thread in the Competition section.

The Bronco for 99.99% of us is a want and not a need. IMHO, a Bronco doesn’t make any sense unless you can very comfortably afford it. But it’s a free country (for now) and people can make their own financial decisions hopefully with sage advice from family and friends.

Ford can’t even reliably schedule within the month. No way they can reliably schedule someone for the next model year.

If you aren’t scheduled yet, you better make sure your current ride will last well into 2023.

That’s on Ford. You can bet that there will be many current unscheduled reservation/order holders that will place a second or third order with other dealers this August all because Ford decided to completely screw up the allocation system.

Built right, and it doesn’t take a ton of money, the GX470 is a very capable off roader and a great road car for its capabilities. Built at one of the best auto plants in the world. Very old school and very reliable. It’s a luxury 4runner or Toyota Prado in the bones with a V8. Anyone passing...

Paying for a vehicle prior to having it in your hands? You're going to need a lawyer.

Exactly, so it doesn't really matter what day of the month they finally schedule unless they start skipping weeks of production. Ford probably doesn't have a great handle on timing for the thousands of parts affected by multiple levels of the acquisition process so it's best they wait as long as...

It makes no sense to not let an order go to a 99 status. There are literally tens of thousands to take its place.

You would have alcohol poisoning if you made a drinking game out of it.

I get the point of the OP and it’s good to get perspective on the problems that may or may not be common to the Bronco but we really won’t know reliability until we get a good sampling of objective data. There are some common problems surfacing but we really don’t have a clue what percentage of...

And this is why people are ordering multiple Broncos anyway. I don't blame them at this point but since Ford decided to play the allocation game and screw over the reservation holders and really, anyone with an outstanding order then the multiple orders further stagnate the quagmire of...

You’re not likely going to have many posters on this forum with buyer’s remorse. Why would they still be here?

It looks like we are at least 12 months away from reliably getting through supply chain and chip issues and there will still be built up demand on those more patient than the current buyers willing to pony up 20% or more. But then you will get those willing to go 5-10% and then MSRP and then so...

I can now make over that speed bump in front of Nordstroms with that extra 0.04” buddy. Calling my Kia dealer ASAP.

Like the current $5.00 a gallon gas and the looming recession? Probably not as bad as 2008 but the shine eventually wears off of everything. Especially when mass produced. We are all participants in the "gotta have it" culture.

I currently drive a 14 year old lower mileage GX470 and it’s a old platform but still operates like something much newer. Very reliable and fit and finish are top notch. Gas mileage is bad and it’s a boat in the city. If Ford messes around too long I will look to upgrade my GX470 to a newer GX...
