It is a 4 door-the dealer does not respond to my questions-UGH
Sounds like you gotta show up there and maybe even try to move your order to another dealer. If that's even a thing

15-18% for heritage?! If that's true, count me surprised at the popularity. I figured heritage would be for a relatively small subset of customers wanting some retro vibe. White top and all not my cup of tea. Recall first thing I did back in the day was paint my white CJ wheels a different color. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder though, good to have options.
We were originally 3-4% for '23 but Ford might have gotten 2k of us scheduled and no clue how many of us are actually built, the Limited's were allocated separately and were already supposed to be spread out over '23/'24 but that's 1966x2. The latest USOB list OP is pulling from is showing 5% now but then states we're exhausted, previous lists have been wheels, tops and just 2 door in general so unless Ford really gets their stuff together for '24 it'll just be a repeat of this year.

Anyrate, there's a demand, not crazy big but it's there. I don't know if comparing it to Base might be comparable, not sure what the take rate was on that trim outside of those wanting basesquatch or a platform to build on vice spending $20k more on something like a WT and then replacing everything on it. Hoping for all the order holders that there's some real progress in getting these produced and after that Ford can keep it or jump on another mainstream special edition or push the mod top and square fenders out to all!

Only took me from July 20 to January 23 to get mine.

Yours should be at least a couple weeks faster.
IIRC, you were just 2 spots ahead of me at SAC (for our build) and there was a 2 month difference between our delivery dates.

I wouldn't worry too much provided they have the allocations. Just look at my signature to see the affect of allocations on the scheduling process!

I hope you are ready for the long haul. My advice as an OG rez holder is just to leave it in the bank and don't compromise what you ordered. It will make it easier to keep once it's built in a year or two.

Sounds like solid advice. I might need to get something temporarily to scratch the itch. Sold my 370Z NISMO and I need to row my own gears......Need something fun to drive while I wait

Hate to say but looks like you will most likely have a long wait. There are a lot of Heritage Broncos not built that were ordered long go. If they push into '24, then they will be ahead of you. Add in the manual. Ford has not really said whether the manual will be Job 1 or not. It's coming just no clear picture of when they will start producing them again. Good luck but to be honest, I see no path for delivery by the end of 2023. Even a spring build would be pushing it IMHO.

I’m a bit surprised that folks that are ordering this vehicle haven’t gotten the memo about patience. It’s been a long recognized fact that Ford has a major problem with getting these vehicles out in a timely fashion. Good luck to you, and I hope you’re able to get delivery in a reasonable amount of time. In my opinion, it’s best to order it then forget it. Be surprised when it comes in. You’ll be less stressed out.

Be scared; I had a 2dr WT with mod top reserved back in June 2020. I’ve reordered a 22 then 23 due to the Mod top constraint, with the last order switched from a WT to a 2dr HE. My original schedule date for the HE was in April 23. I’ve had no less than 13 scheduling updates. The last one was Oct. I guess I’ll be reordering a FY24….on the plus side I’ve gotten 200,000 Ford point for holding out on the Mod top.​

Patience. It's not a crisis and you will be very happy.

If we volunteer as scabs during the strike, will it speed up Bronco production?

When I ordered in 12/21 I didn’t think I’d ever get mine. I was told not to order the hard too or tow package because I’d never get it. At first, the wait seemed too much to bare. But when mine arrived in November ā€˜22 it was worth it to have exactly what I wanted, and the 11 month wait seems like nothing now.

my point is to relax, read the forums, and it will arrive someday. Better to wait longer for exactly what you want ;)
