Waiting room

[Bronco bonanza]

Looks great Jumbo! I guess I am officially out of the waiting room as well. My dealer reached out today. Said the news and wait on my sport in the desert wasn't optimistic. They had a full bronco with squatch and a lot of awesome features come in, the buyer backed out. Gave me a deal I absolutely could not pass up. Applied my employee plan, used my sport deposit, and tossed in some extras for my wait and switch to the bronco, the blue is sharp. This thing is bad to the bone and I have an upgrade for the new 2.0 hard top coming no charge. Dealer felt bad for my wait after years of buying cars and what have ya. Good luck all of you. I couldn't be happier honestly

Ordered my BS OB with OB package, with moon roof, on February 3rd, 2021.

February 18: "Scheduled for Production May 10th"
March 19: "Scheduled for Production May 17th"
April 29: "Scheduled for Production May 31st"
April 30: "Scheduled for Production June 28th"
May 20: "Scheduled for Production July 26th"
June 4: "Scheduled for Production August 30th"
September 7: No email update.... texted salesman. He said "Looks like it's October 1st now" .

I don't seem to be receiving updates anymore. Not sure if that's a good or bad sign? Wife's having a baby October 31st. She currently drives a coupe .

Our dealer stock BB just came in late this afternoon in CT after 3 months of no local stock. Also, received calls from 3 other CT dealers that received theirs today. Perhaps, it’s a New England thing. I recommend calling around

Out of the waiting room as well. Beautiful and drives amazing as well. No regrets. Very happy with the purchase. But dealer kinda ruined the moment by putting on the wrong deflector. Wanted the aeroskin 2. They don't have it on hand and we live 5.5 hours away.

I would be very happy to take a big bronco but my dealer doesn’t have any. A few of the local dealers are advertising some but they are marked up like $30,000 and I am not paying a markup that’s ridiculous. I’m glad your dealer did right by you

After all this waiting you came out of it even better than you would've originally. Congrats! If I could afford one thats probably the route I'd be pursuing at this point. I agree with Jerry, post some pics!

I actually ordered it through my Uncle's dealership in Michigan. Not sure if it would get shipped there and then to the dealer in RI where I will pick it up, or directly to RI.

Ordered a 2022 BL+PP (premium package is the name now) on 9/10 So I thought I would start my thread now for those watching the 2022. We were able to get the package without the moonroof as they have now removed the moonroof from the package in case you want to order without it. We got the Alto Blue. Kodak Brown is now gone and has been replaced by a Metallic Bronze. They made some other changes and the price of everything has inched up some. We were able to add the tow package with the tech so that is good. Got the DORA which was created same day. This will also slot us for the $1000 for getting in order before the 3oth.

Scheduling begins 9/22/2021 and production for 2022s begins 11/1/2021. So it will be a while before we even hear a peep on when ours will be built.

FYI we have noticed some BB and OBs showing up stock at some dealers lately.Watched an OB drive off the lot the day we made our order and a yellow BL at another dealership where they had 10 BS on their lot, most all were BB with a couple OB.

This has been an extraordinary journey! I am extremely happy that this chapter is almost over, and looking forward to the next one! I am still hoping for the best for all of those patiently waiting on the Desert lot to empty!

And for all of those unhappy that it is “taking forever“ to get your BS; just remember, if it is not stuck in the desert or been at least 222 days
or 31 weeks and 5 days, or 60.35% of 2021, you’re doing pretty good…

Placed order 07/14/21, received VIN, but haven't had any other sort of update about build or anything. Anyone on a similar timeline as me? Order is an OB + 360 assist + cargo management system

I ordered OB + OB + 360 assist on July 15. I called the dealership a month later and was told I had a build week of 10/04.

Hey all I have a quick question regarding my ordered bronco sport badlands. My order confirmed date is 3/16/21. The In production date is 6/7/21 which it’s currently still at. I know times are crazy but another local dealer to me just received a bronco badlands with the same package but not my preferable color plus the copilot 360 2.0 and the dates are after mine by a few months. I’m sure others have dealt with something similar it just has me wondering. Dealer hasn’t given me solid updates and it’ says in production on 6/7/21 something seems off
