July 1 Email Group!

[TheWoo]

I did not receive my email today.


A few tidbits:

-Overall it doesn’t look like that many people got order emails today going off the number of posts in this thread saying so. Definitely less than in previous scheduling weeks which isn’t good.

-All MIC tops in today’s email obviously.

-Due to the lack of emails today and this being the first scheduling done in weeks it doesn’t look like Ford has gotten a good handle on the constraints yet. This could be the last week we see MIC tops scheduled for a while unless you’re a FE holder.

-My prediction is that all future VIN’s for soft tops will be produced in September or later which would go in line with when the hard top attachment will start being included and why no emails were sent out today for them. I also predict Ford will mostly produce soft tops beginning that month which is why I don’t see very many MIC tops getting scheduled for the next few months.

-While I see some MIC tops for current order holders (especially FE ones) getting produced before soft tops like as seen in today’s email I don’t see the vast majority being produced until after all of the soft top orders have been built.

In the past two scheduling cycles, week 2 had much larger scheduling numbers than week 1, so I'm hopeful we'll see a lot of emails go out next Thursday. This also feels to me like a larger number of week 1 than the last two cycles, which I take as a good sign. So, basically the opposite of what you feel.

Don't see any reason to think this is the last week for MIC tops.

Ford is targeting 60% hard top, 40% soft top for MY21 production, so they're going to have to continue producing hard tops throughout the fall to come anywhere close to that.

Maybe if you quit whining you’d get scheduled.


I’m kidding I’m in the same boat. My res was 10:55 but I am 1st at the dealer and their only FE.

I was really starting to think Ford was putting me at the back of the line because I was whining so much...but phew! I was whining quite a bit, I must admit.

Well... I went through 17 pages of screenshots and I'm now convinced I am the only person alive who ordered a FE in Cyber Orange...

No, you have company. My FE is a 2-door in Cyber Orange with MIC top. I reserved it on launch date, and I received my email today. The build date is week of August 23. Hooray!

So you have the only 2D and I have the only 4D. Looks like we're going to make a killing at a Mecum auction in a decade!

Just got my Build email First Edition 2 Door.

7/13/21- Reservation
2/3/21- Order Date

I owe a huge thank you to the Bronco6g community for helping me get my build date. I was one of the very first FE orders. I was checked out within the first minute. I had seen an excel sheet on the forums and my reservation ID number was one of the lowest on the sheet for first editions.

My dealer was where everything went wrong. I never got a heads up to go in and order till I finally called. I ordered Cactus Grey with the black interior with a black painted top. I was not as active as I should have been on the Forums but when we received the 3/25 email notifying that the FEs would be getting the MIC top I did not know it required action by me to call the dealer to change my order.

Long story short my order was stuck as a 99 and had I not pushed my dealer to fix this it would have just been stuck his email to me said they had no clue what 99 meant. See Below...

"I attached your order summary here, it is my understanding that the priority code just represents the Dealership so we are Dealer 99."

Any way I finally got it all figured out and just want to thank you all for your help!

That’s messed up! Most of the problems I’ve seen have been from the dealers, not Ford. I’m glad to see your Bronco is being built!!

Tired of getting disappointed I had stopped monitoring my inbox on scheduling days. All the more surprised when I saw a Ford email in my inbox today when I was looking for something else.

Twinning. How many FE 4 Dr Cactus Black Onyx are in this round? geesh.

I just called today and also removed the MIC/Roof Rails to soft top. Is anyone aware of an after-market provider for a MIC roof substitute?

dang it, all these hardtops getting scheduled and I just changed mine to a soft top to make sure I can get one this year. *sigh*

Can’t believe there’s people who think the dealership units don’t have to pass quality inspection tests especially seeing how these units can be test driven and sold to customers at a future date. Ford would be swimming in lawsuits.

I was referring to the MIC tops on dealer units which could easily be swapped out to soft tops before sale. It was a statement that had been passed around before and if it's unfounded rumor then great, no need for butthurt.

 

[MJCBJ]

All recent FE scheduled builds, don't get yourself all excited just yet...

My FE 4 door LB was originally scheduled to be built 6/21, then changed to 7/5, then changed to 8/2, I just hope this time they build the darn thing.

not too many providers out there right now, i'm assuming in the next few months we will see a ton.

Who said I was butthurt? Because I think people don’t have any common sense? Lol. The only one that sounds butthurt is you.

Day 1 hour 1 reservation. Number 1 at my dealer out of 150. Nothing. Many people with same build as mine but who ordered many hours after are scheduled. Great Ford great!

MOD HARD TOP???
