Reservations can be converted into orders starting January 20, 2021
Conversion closes March 19, 2021
Production will begin after March 19 th
Reservations will remain in the order they were received (calculated to the minute).

So if you reserved your Bronco on Oct 1 at 09:00 AM and convert your reservation on March 19th your order will filled before someone with a reservation on Oct 1 at 09:01 and converts there reservation on Jan 20th

Did you get an email from Ford about this? Not seeing anything yet.

I have a July 15 reservation, which is a Day 3 reservation, all the communication seems to be hinting at the fact that the only people that should be expecting their Bronco in 2021 are Day 1 reservation holders and some early Day 2 people, everyone else should expect 2022 delivery dates

I literally forgot about one of them since I placed the deposit down 2 years ago and it still is not released. I am so busy in my life that I can't keep things straight on some of these things. So got it....I will walk to another dealer if they are asking above MSRP. I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

My dealer had 404 reservations, I'm number 220 on their allocation list as a July 15 res holder, I think my dealer will probably get allocated somewhere in the 120 units range for MY 21...debating whether to stay with them because of pricing ($2K under invoice), or go to a different dealer where a July 15 reservation date ranks higher. i guess it just depends on how stupid some of these dealers are going to get with pricing.

It's up to the dealership to send them out. I'm working on that now

I really wanted in on this so bad, but more and more I'm glad I was forced to go a different route. I canceled my reservation in December.

Theyll get pretty fooking stoopid I bet, and there are plenty if fookin stoopid buyers that will make it worth the mountains of stoopid they lay on the invoice.

If I can't even remember the $200K cars I've put a deposit down on, is life joyless at that point?

Your reservation will not be found. Try again in 2022.

Will there be at least one dealer stock to test drive in MY2021? Sounds like every order this year will be reservation only and dealer stock starts with MY2022

If it's anything like the '21 F150, dealer stock builds are built during low volume production ramp up until they hit OKTB and start normal production. Customer retail orders are built once they hit OKTB, but those first trucks built before OKTB are Dealer Stock Orders. What Dealers choose to do with the stock order is up to them - they may put a retail customer's name on them so to speak, and configure them the way the customer wants them, but in Ford's eyes they are a stock build. But with all the hype surrounding the Bronco, and the reservation system, it may work differently for them. Reproag has way more insight into how it all works, so take my input with a grain of salt until he comes along with the truth.

We know there will not be any 2021 retail Broncos and with the way the orders are going not anticipating any 2022 retail Broncos either.

Can't speak for anyone else but we are getting a Customer Transportation Program Bronco so we will have one for test drives.

Vehicle looks fine, those giant rims are terrible though.

Who wheels with larger diameter rims and shorter sidewalk tires? That would be like hiking in dress shoes.

That's amazing.

Can't even remember 1 of 2 deposits on two, $200k cars...but, by god, he's not paying over MSRP!!!

New to the Automotive board but I got an email to submit my build and price specs to my dealer. However they are stating that I have to order the same model and trim as I made in my initial reservation back in July.

From what I've read on the bronco forums this doesn't appear to be the case but was wondering if anyone with a reservation has come across this?

Thanks in advance.

A coworker just ordered his and definitely did not order the same trim level as his reservation.
DeWrecking Crew

This is not true...however, after you place your official order, they ask that you keep your changes to a minimum and you for sure won't be able to change trims

Thanks y'all, thats what I figured.

I hadn't planned on changing trims once ordered. I'm in the camp of mostly likely wanting to wait until the MY22 primarily to see what type of green is offered if at all. I'm not sure if I should submit an order now (which my specs would most likely put me into MY22) and then just change the order up once the MY22 is known.

I'm reaching out to my current dealer to get some information, but have always been on the fence to change dealers since I don't exactly have any personal ties to this dealership with my reservation.

Thanks again.

I saw my first real live Bronco Sport parked on the street yesterday.

Anyone know why some options are not available with certain trims or builds. For example you can't get the following with a 2.7L badlands with bead lock capable wheels:

Hard Top Sound Deadening Headliner
Roof Rails with Crossbars Black
Paint Protection Film
Brush Guard

Curb weight, GVWR rating for MY2021, and the resulting low payload capacity.
BRAggie2000

I get that with maybe brush guard, but 3M film on the hood would add little to no weight to the vehicle.

The Badlands with Sasquatch package is the most likely Bronco to be taken off-road. Ford probably does not want to cover warranty claims every time the PPF is scratched by a tree branch.

Well just found out I'm 233 on my dealers list. If their conversion rate is 50% then I have a change of getting a 2021. It's not looking good. I'm officially depressed. Time to get drunk.

Actually, the lower the conversion rate, the less the dealership gets allocated...so the math isn't that linear

Simplified production line packages or they are holding them for dealer adds with HUGE markups.

I think with my dealer they will get a minimum of 120 based on its location. Being in Frisco their allocation will either stay as is or go up. I think I may still have a shot, but it's going to come down to the wire. F me for waiting till October to reserve.
