I moved up to the Big Bend for 2 reasons over the base. Wanted Area 51 color and rear locker. Other than that really just getting leather wrapped steering wheel/shift knob and some extra handles inside the cabin. The upgraded wheels on the Big Bend aren't worth it as you can get better...
Wow my manual Big Bend with no packages might be one of the first delivered this summer based on the # of orders with delayed delivery options. Thanks everyone for ordering high spec vehicles. I will be sure to post pics so you have something to look at while you wait.:p
This has been endlesslyyyyyyyyyyyy discussed on this forum. Delivery will depend on reservations date, dealer allocation, options in your build, and now the chip crisis is coming into play. Higher spec models that may need chips that are in demand are going to get delayed. Albert at Granger...
I am in the midwest and had a July 15th reservation. Albert actually called me on Tuesday to get my order done so I think they are trying to catch up on the midwest orders with other staff.
I ordered with Granger this morning. Big Bend 2 door manual with only keyless entry pad and rear locker as options. Albert said I was one of the more basic builds and should have a reasonable delivery date due to the low options. Sounds like there are a lot of late availbiliy builds. Again...
Placed my order with Albert this morning. Just wanted to send another shout out on how responsive Granger has been with me and everyone else on this site. Would gladly wait additional months to get my Bronco working with a dealership that is trying to do things right.
Wasn't complaining in the post. I know you guys have a lot of orders to get through and we all appreciate how hard you are working for us. Get to me whenever it is my place in line. My Bronco isn't going to get here any sooner based on conversion date.
Thanks Albert
Just want to send out a word of encouragement to everyone else still waiting to order. Stick to your guns and order as many late availability options you can, it will be worth the wait. I have no ulterior motives with my order being a plain jane Big Bend with only a locking rear diff. Not...
When you order the dealer should give you a WBDO. This is what Granger had in their email:
We will follow all the Ford recommendations such as:
Contacting customers in the time stamp order - FE’s first
Confirm all your specifications color, trim and options
Go over all the commodities...
Granger folks should have gotten an email from Albert and Zach on how they are handling orders. He said not to call them anymore that they will reach out and call each reservation holder in order starting on Wednesday. They want you to do a B&P, save it as a PDF and email it back to them...
A lot of people (including me switched to Granger). They are probably not going to divulge allocations. I am probably at 25-30% of first reservation holders but have no late availability options other than 2 door (Big Bend manual, locking rear diff, no other options). If Granger gets...
Thanks Zach, this is why I switched my order to Granger. Albert has been great. Rather have a delayed delivery by a few months with a dealer trying to do the right thing than deal with other playing games or not being up front and honest. There is no way at this time to know you will get an...
