If my 2022 Maverick does not get built I will buy something on a lot or used. No ordering. There is a 2 door Bronco I drove by all last week at Ford dealer I ordered Maverick from. Still listed for sale on there website. It would make a sweet ride. I don't think Canadians are buying up the Broncos as fast as US customers. Just not anywhere near as practical as the Maverick. Would be sweet though.

yup got that email today actually. Excobost XLT with tow package

 

[PMitchell]

I received as well. It's insulting. Yeah Ford, we kind of figured this out. Ordered in August and haven't heard jacksh*t from you. And your message says nothing.

I got it today too. Ordered 10/5, confirmation 10/6, crickets until today. It was like receiving a message from the Burning Bush in my email. I guess it will be another 6 months before I hear from them that the order will be pushed to MY2023 (I hope not). Lariat Lux Hybrid, 360, SIBL, CO

Why would Canadians not be able to use the Bronco? Is it bad on snow/ice?

This is a complete guess, but maybe yours has been 99 percent completed a while back, chips or a part finally arrived, and now they are test driving it and having QC checking everything one final time. No matter what the reason, yours sounds a lot closer to being put on a train than mine.

Looks exactly like the one I got yesterday .... 'cept the name.

Canadians are not as into vehicles as in the US. Just an observation. They also keep there vehicle longer on average. It might have to do with a higher cost of living so don't spend the same on vehicles. The Bronco is not cheap. The one on lot is 2 door base auto $45000 CDN.

I honestly hope so. I don't want an incomplete truck like the rumors are saying. Been in production since 3/11.

Supposedly my Hybrid Lux was buit on 3-10. No word on it being shipped yet. They are estimating the first week of April for it to be delivered..

I see a lot of people who complained that Ford never communicates with it's customers (understandably) but now, I see a lot of the same people complaining that Ford communicated to them! WTF is wrong with you people! Now I see why customer service dept's never do anything. Who wants to cater to this? Some truly special people can only deal with this. Sure isn't me!

As I reported last night, I have not received an email about delays in my inbox or spam in the last several days. Next week is my scheduled week (after two prior switches). I received three prior emails from Ford on schedule changes (they must have my email) and I believe my paperwork is straight at Chapman (with both them and Ford).

My window sticker appeared Wednesday evening along with the notice of production. The Ford web site was non-responsive (maintenance?) Friday and now it is back up. My Window sticker image is back up as it was, Wednesday night.

I ordered in early September and I have not changed the order to remove spray in bedliner or Lariat Luxury package. I did add the towing package in October. Just been quiet and waiting.

Hope to see it finish being produced next week.

I hope everybody else can have things move along, but these times are different (way too different) in many ways.

I got an email for a lariat hybrid I had originally ordered back in July. I cancelled the order in August and found an XL ecoboost in November. I guess the ford dealer wants the allocation even though I cancelled it. (Wisely, since they haven’t built it 8 months after ordering it!)
