Received a text from my Dealer yesterday and he said the following:
He expects production on the BS to begin late October. Once they get a Vin # they will have a better idea when it will be slated to be built. He expects they will ship in December for arrival late December early January.

Just heard from my dealer that they can't access my full order report because it is blocked because some colors are on back order. I guess that includes my Rapid Red :facepalm:

I do not have a Rapid red Bronco coming to compare to but I have many the are partially visible with a triangle in front of the order...

Never a good thing those triangles from Ford...

From what you know of Ford's production schedule, if I wait until my dealer has a demo for a test drive, would I still be able to make a factory order? Any idea when the order window will close? Thanks Albert.

What happens after it closes? Do they stop making them for a while?

No idea of when the window closes on the Sport reservations but we will be able to order Retail (sold) sports at and after the mannequins show up..

The only thing on hold right now is stock orders...we cannot even spec one for the lot until reservations end...
