Waiting room

[birddog2]

45 years isn't today, unfortunately. And you are talking apples and pomegranate. The BL/BL package takes your build off the table, that's a well-stated fact at this point. They are pumping out Broncos they have resources for, that's just common business. Sucks for those wanting the Badlands with package but you check all the top commodity demands. Anyone with this build is waiting.

If the BL with BL package is the problem, then why were plain BLs not available to order ?
Why did customers with BL/BL orders not get the choice to take out the moon roof option as did OB and BB order customers ?
My problem is the complete lack of communication from Ford or my dealer as to why.
When Bronco Sports 2022 orders open up (maybe) on 30 August we may learn something re: BL orders.
It will be interesting to see if BL orders open up then and with what choices.
If there will not be a Badlands model then what is Ford's plan for 2021 BL orders.
30 August is only two weeks away, surely Ford can plan that far ahead.
2.0L engines maybe ?

But trashing on a company, and being that upset...maybe drop the order and find a better car company mid pandemic nightmare.

Good advice sort of. All car manufactures are short on parts, short on labor, shipping bottle necks ect. I think it best for me to call dealer politely tell them I am out. Maybe late '22 or '23 buy something. See you all best of luck.

My latest unconfirmed theory is they are cranking out new builds until the model year change over. When that happens they’ll dig the parked vehicles out of hot storage and complete them. Just a wild guess in The vacuum of any real information.

These Ford rants are wearing me out. In case these folks haven't noticed the pandemic has produced shortages everywhere.

Yes you are right. Best for me to call dealer politely inform them I am out and shift my focus away. Maybe late '22 or '23 think about buying a new car. Best of luck to everyone. See ya.

I ordered BL, BL package and cargo maintenance system on 3/18/21. It was built on 8/2 and shipped from Mexico Aug 5; via rail car tracking I see it arrived in Kansas City today. I live near Springfield, MO (about 3 hours away) and I am hoping it will be within the week that I am sitting in it. Delivery date was estimated to be 9/6-9/12, but it is looking like it might be early (fingers crossed). So there is hope that BL w/ BL package will be built!!

Or just ride it out, it's a want not a need, and it will be here sooner than A 22/23 to each their own.

I sent text to general manager politely request cancel order feel free to sell to someone else. He understands but says he will reach out when it arrives in case I change my mind. I said sure thats fine. So I am out and going to move on.

I recently found out that the BS can not even be towed on a dolly. This was a bummer for us as we have a motorhome and would have to buy a car hauler to take it with us. I have also canceled out because of this. Waiting so long has just worn us out and then this disappointment. Still a great ride and Ford is a good company.

For my wife its more of a need although it does not have to be a Bronco. Her current car is 10 years old and wearing out. Needs some work but we don't want to put anymore money into it. When we ordered in Feb we were told it would take 8-12 weeks which we were fine with and here we are 6 months later and still waiting...lol. She was just about to give up and go get something else when I found what she wanted at another dealer so all it good.

Just to be clear. I ordered my previous vehicle to this one. 3 years ago. Again, it's not in today environment, but It was well managed. I understand the missing parts of today, but think that if Ford is going to a customer order model, then they without FIFO order filling, it will be a customer satisfaction fiasco. IMHOP

You make excellent points, this year is like no other and it's just something I think everyone needs to put in perspective. Ford needs to get their shit together make no mistake. But expectations have to be filtered. I was apprehensive and always have been in purchasing a first run model year. I had a lease termination and the sport was worth the leap of faith. Every day I see the issues, delays, etc I am thankful (knocks on wood) I have had a great experience.

So as of today for some reason all of the sudden my window sticker is now saying “the window sticker has not yet been released for this vehicle” it had been there for months? I’ve been built sitting waiting for a chip for 9 weeks and now my window sticker is gone lol. ??‍

finally out of the waiting room!! my tracking page updated late last night saying it would be delivered on 8/19 and my dealership called me around 12PM today saying it was dropped off - totally surprised and excited.
ordered 3/27 & delivered 8/14

 

[BAOKIE]

Ok. So do we pay MSRP when we get our customer ordered BS? Or will we get whatever the dealer charges? I couldn't find any newer info on this. Sorry if I'm asking it here.

Just got the paperwork on mine today.

I paid MSRP (less $3149.68) that included the following discounts:

Rebate: $500​

A Plan: $2,649.68 (thank you to family member)​

Total delivered price for my BL/BL was $35,495.68

You should expect to pay MSRP shown on your window sticker less any rebates offered at time you signed your order sheet with dealer secured with your cash deposit.

Very cool! I think that blue bow is going to cut your mpg down and probably create some drag. Hit 70mph and the ribbons .may impact sight lines too....kidding... Looks great enjoy the ride!
