2027 order book chatter

[Sunday Money]

Heritages last a week or less on the lot where I am.

There are currently 37 of them on dealer lots within 20 miles of me:

If you know the new colors..do you know which 2026 colors will carry over to 2027?

Shadow Black, Oxford White, and any color ending with the letters *ray

Anyone, have any serious updates on when the 2027 Ordering Guide and 2027 color list might become available as someone in this forum has to know.

Sometime in October probably. Still got a while.

Based on the dates mentioned on the 2027 RTR and Filson, Ford says available to order in October, that is when we expect the 2027 order bank and order guides to be available. Plus that was the same time as last year.

So here is my concern. I ordered a 2026 Bronco Raptor and based on recalls, etc.. I'm worried it may eventually get pushed to a 2027 (which isn't so bad) - the problem is - I have a lot of custom painted parts (Velocity Blue) from my prior Bronco and I'm concerned they might not have that color in 2027. So I was hoping for some insider info (if possible) on colors

I wouldn't be concerned on the recall stopping a Bronco Raptor that already has a vin and a production date. Once they issue a recall, they have the fix that is being performed at the factory. The reason it takes awhile to get to the vehicles already in public hands is part availability. They will make sure they have the parts to continue production.

If you aren't scheduled yet, I wouldn't be concerned because as long as your dealer gets an allocation, you shouldn't have an issue getting scheduled. (Shameless plug - I do a scheduling video each week on the Long McArthur YouTube channel).

A little trick on colors, if Ford is planning to delete a color they will make sure any orders with that color get scheduled (as long as the dealer has an allocation). I noticed this happening on Maverick several years ago when they went away from Area 51 and Cyber Orange. All of our orders in those colors were scheduled 2 months out for production balance out.

I don't have any insider info on colors for 2027 other than what has been shown on RTR and Filson but if your order doesn't get scheduled then your order won't "push" to a 2027, you will need to reorder a 2027 because the 2026 would just sit there once the balance scheduling happens. Since they will produce through the end of 2026 (December). The last month of scheduling for balance out will be October. But again it does come down to your dealer getting a Bronco Raptor allocation since it is separate from regular Bronco allocations.

Thanks, in positive they have an allocation, that being said, I don't have a vin yet.

They did scheduled Raptors yesterday. It was the first week for scheduling using August allocations for October production dates. I would find out if your order was selected for that allocation, someone else, or if it is still left. The allocation should have been used as long as the dealer had an order in a configuration that they can build. You might call them. The only hold up on Raptor would be wheel choice. The beadlock capacity is 45%.

 

[dstanky]

Yeah, mines has beadlocks

If ‘27 order book opens in October, when would first delivery’s begin? Asking specifically about heritage so not sure if that changes the answer
