Thanks
My best guess is FE then Badlands as they are closely optioned.

Can't wait to get my badlands

New info; Badlands option is 28% of reservations, so far.

Ordering a Badlands for my folks this week, cool to see them so excited.

I bet they are excited! What a nice gift.

HURRY UP OCTOBER

If you had to speculate how long it takes between production and arrival at dealership....?

I have no idea. But I would guess that they'll build a large batch and store them at the factory until they have enough to start shipping out in acceptable numbers. It might also depend on where you live as they'll probably go out on truck and rail across the country.

I live fairly close the the Wayne, Michigan factory and if they'd let me, I'd love to pick up mine as it came off the factory line.

Ford to Build Bronco Sport in Mexico

Ahh shoot. I didn't realize I was in the Sport forum. :eek:

I've been given a delivery date around the first week in June by my dealer. (For a sport). I ordered a couple of weeks ago. He also noted the date could be pushed back if there is a serious COVID resurgence during the fall / winter. I'm not sure I can wait that long as this is for a concept vehicle and I need something to modify by February.

There is also a LOT of "wheeling and dealing" going on with reservations and orders. My gut feeling is the "reservation" and "order" process is not totally regimented and is, as I was told, "a way to see what people are ordering instead of placement in a waiting line." It's totally conceivable you could order a vehicle from an aggressive dealer who follows-up with the process and it arrives months before someone who ordered during the first week of reservations. I heard a radio ad last week while driving through Texas telling listeners they could be "moved to the top of the reservation list for the new Ford Bronco."

Wow! I would have never thought it would take that long to get a Sport. If they are supposed to start building at the end of October, why would it take so long to deliver a vehicle? I haven't heard anything about how many Sports were reserved or ordered.

Dang

Just remember, this is just one dealer -- the same one I had to call to motivate them to process the reservation. It's possible the delivery dates could be sooner for some people, or overall for everyone. It would be helpful if they could provide some "rough" idea. This is how rumors start.

¡Ay, caramba. Hopefully that’s just crazy talk

I'll feel a lot more comfortable once I see someone other than a dealer receive an actual "build order."

I saw somewhere on the broncosportforum that the Ford Herm, MX plant has scheduled production of reservations for BS in December with deliveries to start in January. Late availability colors in March 2021. I cannot seem to find that information.

The 26th is almost here....
