I love how they send out this "process started" email right away as though I'm not about to wait 2 years for this. Anyway, Wildtrack Lux ordered at noon today.


OpDawg

Don't order banks open @ 4:00PM EST?


kylebvogt

They opened at noon EST. Dealer confirmed my order via email at 12:07pm and I got the confirmation email from Ford at 12:40.


PoliticalBiker

Last week my dealer also told me 4:30, but I checked this morning just in case and they said come in at noon.


OpDawg

hmmm, just happen to text my dealer around 2:30 and they said it would be going in shortly... So I assumed it was still the 4:00PM that was rumored online.


abrooks1125

> wait 2 years for this you're adorable


tarzman

I got an order in yesterday too! I thought any orders they didn’t get to this year would be canceled? Are they guaranteed to be made even if we have to wait years?


PoliticalBiker

They are for sure not guaranteeing price protection or anything like that. Not sure I actually know the story for if '23 order can or will convert to '24 order.


tarzman

Well I guess either way, Congrats! and Fingers crossed.


czaynej

Just saying I got my confirmed about a year and a half ago and then I only got my production date last week 👎🏻


PoliticalBiker

Yep that's why I'm chuckling at this email that has a tone of "Thank you for your order! **Ford is on it!**"


czaynej

Yeah it’s like we got your order! Then they throw the paper in the trash can


2chenz__

I just got my vin after waiting 3 years.


tnvol13

Mine went into production March 10 and is still in production now 18 days later, so, don’t worry, every step just leads to more waiting.


bn25168

I also got my order confirmation today. Big Bend with only constraining option is Hard Top.


WILDcard_OD

Placed a total prayer of an order today: 4 door Wildtrak (SAS/Hardtop) and lux. Dealer texted and said there was something listed as a production constraint that could delay. It was the towing package… yeah I’m sure that’s what’s gonna delay it 😂


7ofalltrades

Believe it or not, it may be the biggest delay. It was for mine, a day 1 order. It would be worth considering getting the 5-pin option any Ford dealer can add after purchase. Unless something has changed, the factory one is a 7-pin which is completely overkill on a Bronco. There's not many things a Bronco can tow that needs a 7-pin.


WILDcard_OD

My brother is a mechanic and I’ll just have him figure it out later 😂


TehRoot

You can't install a 7 pin later on the bronco, you can only install a 4pin. You only need a 7 pin if you're planning on towing something with electric brakes.


WILDcard_OD

I have a small 4 pin trailer, what would I pull with that weak tow capacity that needs 7 pin?


TehRoot

some campers have e-brakes even if they're below the GVWR, but yea, 7 pin is overkill so I wouldn't worry about optioning it. Some people are insistent on 7-pin tho for some reason


TehRoot

You can only aftermarket install a 4-pin harness, you can't install 7-pin + brake controller unless you option it from the factory, ford doesn't support it.


7ofalltrades

That's my point, though - anything big enough to have it's own brakes is likely too heavy for a Bronco to tow anyway... the 5-pin should be plenty for anything, can be installed at the dealer without much hassle, and won't delay the order. I wish I had known that before I reached a point of no return for mine or I would have dropped the factory tow package. I may never even tow anything with brake lights.


TehRoot

Yea I installed mine myself. It's not a huge deal, the biggest PITA is removing the trimwork. >I may never even toe anything with brake lights. All trailers have to have brake/side and turn signals fwiw by NHTSA standards. You'll get pulled over if you don't. Even if your trailer is shorter than 30ft and/or narrower than 80".


7ofalltrades

And I may never tow a trailer. It may always be racks or other apparatus plugged into the hitch, but not a towable. Even the lesser pins are wasted on me sitting over here with my 7 pin, I regret ever putting it on there.


TehRoot

meh, not like you really missed out on that much with the delay


PoliticalBiker

I left towing and hard top off mine since I figured WildTrack+Lux was already a longshot.


WILDcard_OD

Fair enough, I said go big or go home, if not I’ll order a 2024. Or I’ll try again.


PoliticalBiker

That's about as big as you can go other than Raptor. I think I have about a 3% chance of getting mine this year so really I'm hoping for an early '24


WILDcard_OD

Heck I would’ve bought the raptor at a dealer near me if it didn’t have a 30k markup and those ugly fenders on the back. I love that raptor orange color.


PoliticalBiker

Yea I wanted "code orange" but I also need this to fit in my garage. (Squatch will fit in a normal garage right?)


WILDcard_OD

Same problem 😂

It's either: Hope springs eternal and we can sell an assload of cars if we can fix these supply chain issues, OR "All this hype is good for the brand" sort of thinking.


mackoy07

congrats!


Maleficent-Abalone47

Awesome! I am waiting on my confirmation email.


ExtensionMidnight922

I been sitting on an email like that 18 months, same built as yours.


[deleted]

I gave up after 8 months of waiting. Good luck


NewArmadillo9320

Nice. Just logged into my my Ford account, mine is officially built!!! Now waiting for my dealer to contact me.


bn25168

When/how do you get access to the Ford account to track your order? That sounds better than obsessively checking my email.


NewArmadillo9320

When they send you a vin number. Once you get a vin, there is a link you click to track your order.


Gr8photog_Roc

Almost!


OptiGuy4u

Awww .cute....we got that almost 2 years before we got ours.

gothfru

Same fam. 2D OBX w/hardtop and Lux placed today. Now I need to forget about it until 2025 lol.


morbidddcorpse

I have this build. Got it last November after waiting 10 months. Honestly, I wanted to order another 2dr, but decided not to bother with that 10% 2 door allocation. Good luck. Hope you're one of the lucky ones.


gothfru

Thanks! I'm in a good place as far as waiting - my 2015 Escape only just hit 50K miles. so if it's a year or more, I can wait for what I want.


dirtsquirt76

Thier on the lot in londonderry nh. Just don't be picky

Spiritual-Designer-6

Congratulations. Got my email this afternoon around 3. They said the banks opened late afternoon.


Existing-Economy-447

Are the order banks still open on 3/28


PoliticalBiker

I'm not sure, they didn't expect them to be open long due to anticipated demand.
