Reading this is almost unbelievable. So sad and pathetic for any manufacturers to do this to people. Our years here on earth to enjoy broncos are NOT endless, and every day waiting without, is one day less we'll have owning and enjoying it. My advice on to all still waiting is to speak up, write a letter, make a video, get on social on media and COMPLAIN!!! If enough folks make a noticeable scene, Ford will immediately change their tune and make fixing this stupidity a priority.
I can assure you that we have complained on social media endlessly for years. We have written letters, we have been quoted in articles calling out the unfair allocation system. Ford knows, they’ve been made very aware we exist. The tone deaf response is always the same, “orders will be built in timestamp order if your dealer has allocation.” They assure us it’s fair and right and perfect and they’re trying to fix it.

Do you know how many times Mike Levine has blocked me and others for asking him questions? I don’t even know lol. I admit I can be a little hostile but that’s just what he does. He twists Ford’s words and statements and calls us liars and swears they never promised anything. It’s why most of us are burnt out and just apathetic about the Bronco. Ford ruined all of the fun of the process and when we asked why we didn’t matter they gave us the middle finger and ignored us again and again and again. Complaining got old because we know it didn’t change anything.

I understand how people are frustrated by the delays. I was a day one minute one reservation who got my 2021 last year in October (after the dirt mountain saga) and had problems w it on the ride home. After literally driving it twice and multiple things wrong w it (some the dealer couldn’t fix) it wound up being a dealer buyback. Easy to say in retrospect bc I was hype to be informed I was getting mine and felt ‘lucky’. However time may show getting a 2023 is the best scenario and definitely a better situation than mine.
So you don’t have a Bronco now?

Because I want the sasquatch package on my 4dr base 2.3 soft top, I don't have a build date. I've got like 6 months left of waiting before I finally throw in the towel.
Reserved 10/5/20.

I wish I knew dealer allocation means everything, might not have even got involved with ordering a new Bronco. Ford assigned me to a local dealer that I've used for 5 vehicles in the past, they are small and I'm the only Braptor allocation GT or otherwise. I guess it could be worse getting stuck up the road at a large dealer like All American Ford getting hammered with $50K adm or giving it up.
None of us knew about “dealer allocation” in the beginning because Ford just made it up a couple months after ordering.

Should do a poll asking if dealer you have order/reservation is small. See if the dealer allocation thing is true.

750 days and nothing. That's a day 2 rez for those wondering.

And let me just add this allocation and commodities excuse after 100K+ Broncos produced is total garbage. FORD does not honor its reservation holders. Full stop. They have built plenty of trucks that should have fulfilled all of these first few months of reservations. This is deliberate and a slap in our faces. There is literally no excuse. And if you think that there is a worthy excuse then explain all the trucks that mirror all of our early reservations that are on dealer lots and are in driveways of folks who did not reserve as we did. This is an open and shut case. FORD did not honor us. That's what happened. The idea that FORD and its apologists continue to gas light people is peak comedy.
We have day one res, used it for golden ticket to get raptor...nothing for it, I know in the raptor section a couple guys have dealer allocation Raptors and they have build dates.

So you don’t have a Bronco now?
No, I got frustrated and a bit psyched out to the whole situation. I went from looking at this site tons every day to almost not at all for the last year. But I do love the look of the bronco and it’s feel. I’m an optimist and starting to get the urge to get back in the game so gradually looking at this site again. I’m happy to see more and more people happy w theirs so I’m thinking of maybe a 2023 or by 24.

July 25th 2020 reservation. Have all of the throw away trinkets and my email is flooded with Bronco OfFord-Rodeo spam which I almost, but glad I never bit on since I have no VIN and likely being pushed to ’23.

2 Door Badlands, Squatch, Lux, roof rack and even removed tow.

Unless you were an early res who ordered a First Edition, or switched to a soft top, you are waiting like me, but I won’t be waiting for much longer.

Are you all still holding out for the modular painted roof? It is really the only constraint that would have held up production scheduling for 15 months.

And reservation means nothing if you did not convert to an order, so I would suggest a more accurate poll would consist of converted order date, not res date

At this point (and even a year ago) odds on Ford EVER releasing the mod top are slim to none.
so, you think the heritage edition with mod top that's been teased won't be available to cash in hand buyers?
