Tell me you didn't reserve within the first 24 hours in July '20 and place your order on first day able in January '21, without telling me you didn't reserve within the first 24 hours in July '20 and place your order on the first day able in January '21.

The entitled are actually the Influencers that already received their decked out commodity constrained Broncos months ago. I'm just an honest working plebe without a Bronco, after zero changes to my original early order and almost a year and a half wait from my early reservation, watching plenty of later reservations and orders get delivered. Entitled? No. Bamboozled through this process? Yes.
Nice meme usage, and nice attempt to reframe how you feel, but you are proving the point myself and others are making. It doesn't matter if one considers themselves an honest working plebe - the self-deprecation (even if it's true) doesn't entitle that person to a Bronco before somebody else - even if the other person is an influencer (somehow implying they're low-class citizens...?).

The moment I compare my life and my actions to someone else's and use it as an argument for why I am frustrated about what others are getting, I am acting entitled. "I deserve this more than them" literally is entitlement.

Hopefully they are adding more QC steps. If that's the case then good.

I think this letter means that the number of Broncos that are off the main production line but are parked waiting for one part or another are increasing quickly and things are getting backed up. Also seems like scheduled units are getting pushed out once again. Looks like the supply chain might be getting worse, not better

2/18/21 reservation
Ordered through a high-volume dealer.
12/6/21 removed MIC and tow.
Sorry. I had to laugh when reading your sig line and what you had done to entitle yourself to cut in line ahead of earlier reservations. Enjoy your big-dealer entitlement. :)

I do not have the feeling that I deserve something or that I receive special treatment. I do feel that the rules were changed and broken for many individuals, and I'm not willing to write it off as easily as you are. But in all fairness, your wait has been a lot less, and you likely knew it would be a long wait because you had months of info that early people did not. It also looks like you made order changes to get a rig sooner. Great for you, and it might shave off some time.

I was patient enough for most of this journey. I was fully acceptant after finally receiving my 11/15 build week (11/16 blend date) and an ETA of 12/11. About 4 weeks after blend - awesome, bring it! But to have the ETA revised to tack on 6 additional weeks the night before my ETA of 12/11, Pissed me off. So 10 weeks from blend, for "final touches" might be ok for you, but it sucks donkey nuts in my book, especially when many rigs delivery THE NEXT DAY from blend date. Please don't confuse pissed off with entitlement. Read the room man, can you just let me be pissed and unhappy about a shitty email with no substance, without labeling?

I did receive that email today. My build week was 10/25, the modules were populated 10/27. I removed the tow package last February, added it back in June(?) when it went off constraint... I believe that it went back to constraint status AFTER 10/27? I really think it's the floor mats.
I got the email. No PPF. No roof rack. No tow package. Badlands, soft top, 2.3 7MT. I got mats which feels dumb right now, especially for a badlands with rubber floor.

Got that email today my build was on 12/6 and figure its because of the towing package. At least I know its been built and getting closer to being delivered.

Probably in response to all the QC checks being missed recently. Not a bad thing if it leads to less dealer service on your end

Sounds like some of these 2021s won't be leaving MAP until January? Is this "finishing touches" some CYA move that lets them add parts to supposedly completely "built" 2021 Broncos after the New Year?

Genuinely curious what's going on here.

Remember everyone, there is a national shortage of truck drivers. Could be a simple as that. 500+ days after reserving, I’m just hoping to get a “Your Bronco is scheduled” email before April…..

Yes I did,

As did four others and counting in the 11/29 build week group. We think it's due to having a tow package. Do you have one on your order?
I was in the 11/29 group and had tow package. If you’re right it looks like I lucked out.
