crazy build times?

[keenanbronco1964]

Is it just me or is anyone else getting tired of being bumped for their build dates? My build date has been extended now twice , from Dec 18th 2021 to Feb 22nd 2022 to now April 22nd2022. I find it disturbing that there are new Broncos on the lot for sale and the one I have reserved since the first day, and ordered 13 months ago is not here. Has anyone reported this to their respective states? Seems wrong ...

It’s happening with all the other manufacturers too.

I'm at a loss on what we are supposed to report? Covid mandates hindering workers? Chip shortages? Truckers blocking supply routes? As is already pointed out, it's not just Ford. Everybody's getting hit with issues.

I been bumped 6 times in 3 weeks. It is what it is. It’s a truck, I’ll get it when I get it. Would I like to have it yes, but I’m not gonna cry about it. Everything now days seems to be a wait and we have become impatient people.

reserved since the first day

Define “first day,” please.

Lots of folks here have a loose definition.

I love these noobies that come on here and complain with one career post. First off read through some of the topics to educate yourself. 2nd, if you aren't waiting for your rig at least a year, you have nothing to complain about. If you are truly waiting since the first day, it took me a year and a half to get mine and I ordered on opening night.

We all getting...

Get use to it... you have seen nothing yet

I'd rather have a build date bumped than the no build date at all I'm sitting here with.

It's mostly you ... it is possible to have a first day reservation, but wasn't there a generic first order date for anyone who reserved prior to that date?
January 19, 2021 rings a bell.

Even if you "ordered" before that date or on that date, your order date is the same as everyone else similarly situated. I reserved, August 23, 2020. If you re-ordered in a timely manner in 2021, you and I have the same order date.

Respectfully ... take some time and educate yourself on the issues: Ford's policy of only 50% of production addressing reservations. Allocations, dealer and regional. Constraints. 7,000 vehicles on "chip hold", not "chip shortage" on Ice Mountain(s). There are folks who have had their build date moved multiples of yours. You do yourself no favors by imaging you have been wronged to an extraordinary degree, certainly when compared to many others on here.

If you watch some of the "build week" threads, it appears many of the late build weeks are being moved in ... I suspect Ford put in a conservative late date until they got a better handle on actual chip replacement timing and are now moving many in on a case by case basis as their information firms up.

I had 8 differnt build dates between June 2021 until it was built in November. You never get a reason why, just some random flag, calendar, toy car, poster… and an email that tells you you hang in and get excited

It seems like just when you think it can't get any worse! It does. It has to be a light at the end of the tunnel.

You guys have a build date?
