Another Date change on my 2023 Badlands

[Rubber Ducky]

My original production date was November 14th. Then, it changed to November 21st. Just now I got an email that my production date is now December 12th! Has anyone else been pushed back the second time from the original date.

2023 Badlands, Atlas Blue, 360+, Moonroof, Premium Package. Date ordered 9/1, confirmed 9/5.

My productions dates changed in the same manner your did.

I found this article:

Jeez! I sure hope we get our new cars before April or May! That will be a ridiculous wait time!

I ordered my BSOBX on May 3, 2022, the first ship date was supposed to be Oct 2, 2022 and the second ship date was Oct 18 and now...the third ship date is Nov 21, 2022!
The tracking information has been horrible, with no new updates and Ford Customer Service is no better!

You are all over the place. What is your build?

Got my Tuesday update, now back to Dec 5

Sorry to hear that. Join the 12/05 club.

Also just heard no BS scheduling this week. It sounds like the plant is full for December. Did anyone else hear the same thing tonight?

 

[Scottie137]

Yep, back to 12/05 here too. Update prior to that was 11/28.

Just got a notice I've been pushed to January 5th. Sigh. I guess it's truly a 2023 now.

Just curious... When did you originally order and what was the original date you were sent for build?

This ticks me off... I have another car that I am planning on getting rid of when the new one comes in. I guess I should not make any plans till I see the new car at delivery.

Honestly...September to December? Early orders would have been ecstatic for three months to build time. Some folks went 6-12 months waiting on sports. Some waiting on full broncos with day one reservations still don't have theirs. Yeah it sucks, the wait is worth it if the Bronco is what you need.

Yikes! That is just like mine, except I didn't order the towing package nor the cargo system. I haven't gotten the delay to January 5th yet. I guess it is on the way for me. Good luck in getting your car asap.

The entire ordering process is a shitshow... and that's why I didn't hesitate to buy this one straight off the lot 2 days after it arrived at the dealer. I think I got super lucky... finding one at a dealer 5 miles away with all the options I'd have selected with an order.

Seen too many stories like this... and it's not just part shortage delays you have worry about. It's also truck driver shortage delays. I know a guy who ordered a car and his delivery date is 2+ months after completion. I've also seen reports of vehicles just sitting completed... waiting on truck drivers.

Meh... hope yours shows up soon.

I noticed our builds were very similar. Hopefully yours won't get pushed. Fingers crossed.

Thanks. I forgot to add that we also did the grey roof and moonroof.

I didn't have any luck finding a Velocity Blue Badlands in Colorado, so I resigned myself to ordering. Sadly, Ford deleted that color for 2023, but Atlas Blue appears close enough. It is what it is. it should get here...eventually.
