Took delivery of my 2021 Bronco Big Bend (Area51, 2.3L, Soft Top, Mid Package, Steps) last Friday. After almost a week and 400+ miles have to say I'm very happy with it. Originally had ordered a MIC top, but with the first mention of MIC top production issues I took a closer look at the soft top, quickly realized I preferred the flexibility/ease of use and switched. Ended up getting scheduled the next week. So far the noise level of the soft top on the road has been good, more of a mild background noise. Putting the top up/down is a fairly quick and simple process. The ride is much smoother than I had expected as well. Ford did a great job designing and engineering this generation of Bronco. Looking forward to many adventures to come with it...

Congrats on taking delivery! I just got the email today with the vin (much earlier than we thought which is a pleasant surprise). Also glad to hear you are enjoying it along with the soft top. We did the same thing and changed our order to the soft top. Nice to hear its easy to use and not obnoxiously loud.

I also dropped the hard top when Ford recommended going to the soft top would get me a Bronco sooner. Same color as yours, a Big Bend. I reserved in March this year, but believe it or not, got the production scheduled email this week! Ready to drive soon! How do you like those steps? I'm thinking of getting some Rhino aftermarket rail/steps, to help my short wife.

The factory steps are really nice, I'm glad that I ordered them. My family finds them quite useful. Find myself looking for any excuse to get out and drive the Bronco. It is definitely worth the wait. If you haven't already done so, highly recommend attending the Bronco Off-Rodeo. Wife and I attended the Texas event and really enjoyed it. Then the following week my Bronco arrived. Been a good month...

I put in my reservation on 1/22/2021 and still have absolutely no confirmation besides the reservation number which is 10639257. When will my reservation be turned in to an order? What is my projected delivery date? These are all questions that I have been asking for 6 months. Wish I had some sort of clarity on my order.... Anyone else having this problem?

As @KennyMac said, You have to go to the dealer to place an order. The reservation just means you have a place holder there, supposedly..contact your dealership that is on your reservation and they’ll be able to help you.

Congratulations and welcome to the club. I have over 3,000 miles on my wildtrak and it's been fun.

You dealer should provide you with the order number as well as a printout of your order. You should also receive a confirmation email from Ford on your order being received.
