New Bronco on order

[profet]

Ordered my 26 Badlands 2.3 7MT on 6/5. Email from Ford on 6/11 said build date the week of 8/17. When I logged in to check the order status it originally listed a drive date of September. It has since updated to October. That’s about all I know.

I had the same date for a similar build

is the order tracking working for you now?

Whenever I try to lookup my order I get:

"We can't show your order right now. Please try again later."

it's done that for about five days.

now I'm starting to get concerned.

it's ok. Not everyone knows how to drive stick.

I can drive a stick just fine. i have owed numerous stick vehicles over the years. Would have loved to have a stick in the Bronco, just not with that small 4 cylinder.

It’s working. Just doesn’t give me any real information. I’m sure you can check with your dealer for an update.

Got this email today.

I got the same email this morning

it’s a little odd as my build was not scheduled to start until the week of 8/17 and yet it says they’ve made progress on it…

My ‘Drive date’ started in September, then October and is now showing as November. At this rate it may not get here until ‘27

Same. Mine changed to November as well. But according to my dealer the build week still shows for him as 8/17, so I’m definitely confused.

I'm guessing this has to do with the unresolved wiring harness recall but who knows.

Same here, the build date has never shifted. What started out as a 90 day wait is now headed past 150 days.

Like you, I think this is related to the recalls.

Are you able to see your build date? I got mine in the original email but haven’t seen it listed in the order status since.

I can see the build date but only if I sign-out, delete cache and manually put the order and VIN, my build date is still showing as 17th August. If I log in then it does NOT show the build date but it says it’s ’In Production’.

It’s messed up… frankly I’m not impressed.

I just checked mine and now I have a window sticker, showing a Blend Date of 08/19
Number 2233 of 2800

 

[APG12]

I don’t have a window sticker yet but my drive date is now showing September again.

What was your order date?

 

[LVS]

Order date was 06/09, yours was a few days earlier if I recall.

I did not get an email with the Sticker, had to click the link on the website to see it.

My drive date is still showing October

I found that 1, it took a while to get mine, but that could be a 2dr thing, and 2, even in the base with 30's, 6th is rare. I only use it over 105kph (65ish MPH), and it's not even really into its stride until 115~120kph (71~75MPH). Still nice to have, considering I like to cruise around 125+kph (78+MPH), but if you're slower/more law abiding, it's nearly useless

If you are a fan of driving manuals you will love it! I’ve owned many manual vehicles and this is my favorite.

My 23 BB 2 door 7mt has been excellent. I have had zero issues over 41K and only the wiring harness recall to deal with. I have a newer revision of the transmission and it doesn’t make any odd noises. Shifting is smooth especialy with Redline lube.

The Ford Performance Tune is worth it if you don’t mind being locked into premium fuel. It’s too bad they have removed rev matching as it is sweet. Power isn’t an issue for me. I pull a 3000lb boat up steep hills with ease where my 5.7 Chevy struggles.

I think 32” tires are prob the perfect size for the gearing. Mine cruises 68mph in 6th at 2000 rpm mostly staying out of boost. I’ll see 24+ mpg on the hwy if there isn’t a head wind.

Enjoy!
