I don't think Bronco will have the same problems. It's basically a Ranger. And Ford has been building and testing a lot of vehicles. Here's to hoping Ford has their shit together.
“I’ll call my guy” hahahaha I’ve heard that line a couple times already and everything I’ve been told was a lie. These guys don’t know anything and make shit up. You could probably call Billy Ford JR himself and I bet he wouldn’t know what’s going on.
With all the blunders they’ve had already and now they can’t even get the build order right makes me really worried what the build process will turn out to be.
Damn that looks good, I grew up with a 74 FJ40 and sold it in the late 80s. Could now kick myself in the ass. Been looking for a long time for another, just have not found the one. Great looking rigs the pics and your profile. FJ40s have a special place in my world.Man, I hear that. In July I saw this FJ45 advertised at the same place I picked up my FJ40, 7 days after making the Bronco reservation. I was so tempted to say screw it, but it was so early on in the process that I stupidly had hope of getting the Bronco sooner than September (my guess). Would've saved me about 10K too, I think it was advertised at $42,900. Oh well.
Thanks man, I hope the right one pops up for you. I've certainly grown attached in the short time I've had Blue, and can only imagine your regret.
I have a very similar build and res date as you. I think it’s because of Sasquatch. Seems like most of the builds were BB and no Sasquatch. Also seemed like not very many bases were scheduled either.
Our first order got pulled this week (not counting the priority or FCTP units) and it was #1 by reservation time stamp, not reservation number. It was a base with no commodity issues so it made sense why they pulled it. What doesn't make sense is them pulling orders that are not in the allocation "window" by either reservation number or time stamp. All of this goes against what we have been told. But to answer the question, no, there have been no communications from Ford to the dealers concerning a change to order build changes. Your guess is as good as mine.
There is no way your dealer can know about a build in August yet. Pure speculation on their part, they don't have enough data/facts yet. Keep the faith. If two forum members that reserved a vehicle, one in February and one in March of 2021 can already have a production date (happened this week) then you sure as hell can get a production date prior to August.
I wouldn't think so because I was the first one through the door at my dealer to place the order. Also an hour 2 reservation. Both of those in play and I'm sitting here watching my exact build get pulled for people that reserved weeks after.
