Ford Says Some Bronco Preorders Won't Make It To Customers Until 2022

If you want to be among the first people to own the new Ford Bronco, then you should reserve one and then be patient. The automaker has so many reservations that some customers might be waiting well into 2022 to get their SUV, even though deliveries start in June 2021.

"Reservations have been so popular that some Bronco customers may not receive their Bronco until 2022," a Ford spokesperson told Car and Driver.

Indeed. They knew the Bronco was going to be a huge success. Having to wait until 2022 isn't all it seems though. The Bronco won't be in dealers until next spring, so 8-9 months later, there will be people getting Broncos and that isn't an unheard of wait on a very popular production car. The Corvette has a significant wait time too. Exacerbating things is the COVID shut down which impacts the Ranger which is what the Bronco largely is. As manufacturers focus on building up stock to dealers, orders have to be slotted in and that increases wait time.

this is something i’m okay with. Let those people pay over MSRP and identify the bugs with dealer inventory... I’m glad to wait a few more months.
