According to others Japanese and South Korean car manufacturers are not having issues.
They are in my area. And again...where are most chips made? Where other countries are smarter than the US, they prioritize their own economy...here we ask who we can bid out...

Sounds like volume dealership with some pull...if it was the same order only priority selections would cause those issues.
Could be, my dealer is a volume seller and part of a fairly large chain of dealerships (although not all Ford).

Well that's my guess...and money moves the world. My original dealer is in a similar situation and insisted they had a lot of leverage with 7 orders similar to mine in process. Sure enough...it was built. Again I think in part due to limited frills, but higher dealers get priority. The Blue Oval certificate used to be a big deal, not sure if that's still a thing. They begged for high marks on customer feedback because all fives bumped them up the food chain.

Remember folks, it's not over until the Fat Chip Sings.

I want the high option Badlands in the color I want with the options I chose. So I am gonna wait it out and expect the worse in terms of ongoing delays...

And in the end assuming you aren't delayed until the third rerelease of the bronco...you'll be glad you did. Get what you want if you can wait it out. I got lucky not gonna hide it.

Wondering if I'll ever get it.

Don't trust the first delivery date. mine was changed from July 13-19 to October 25-31. It was supposedly built June 12.
Don’t trust anything Ford tells you until it’s in your driveway. Sorry I’m bitter and gave up. Good luck to you ??
