Can this be blamed on Putin's war like everything else? I know boo...I just thought maybe Putin is stopping the assembly lines.

Not sure what got into me here but if you're offended by this please....don't read it.

Well, I’m never offended by free speech so speak your mind lol. Putin is blamed for everything anyway 👍

I got an official email from Ford saying that mine was going into production the week of 6/13. I just checked the backdoor link and it shows the week of 6/27? Which one do I go with? At this point I am going with 6/27.
I'd believe the latter. Who knows when that email was actually crafted. Of course, to get to ground truth, maybe a direct Ford communication is called for (either phone or chat).

mine pushed to 8/1 as well. 6/6, 6/20, 6/27, skipped right past july, now 8/1. I just sold off the gladiator basically brand new too, should've known to wait for the bronco to be at hand first.

same exact for me as of this morning :/
I went from week of 5/16 to 5/23 to a specific build date of 6/16.....and a few moments ago, my dealer informed me that I've been pushed to week of 7/25.
Yet I still can't seem to add the door lock keypad or carbon inserts to my order(been asking since April)
Given the climate where I live, I may not be able to remove the roof and doors for many months following delivery....whenever that may actually be.

Can’t change your order once you have a build date.

Check your build dates! Mine just moved UP from 8/1 to 7/25.
Up’s gotta be good.
Even got the Ford email that I never got the other times.

That’s really good news, 1st time I’m aware of the build date for a Bronco Raptor moving closer! I also like it was confirmed by Ford’s email.

My dealership stated that they were informed by Ford that Bronco Raptor constraints are being caused by supply chain availability with wheels. If anyone has their build date accelerating as a few have on our site, please let us know your build specs including wheels. It would be interesting to identify if there are any patterns.

8/8 -> 8/15 for me.
Out of curosity, which wheels did you order, my guess is style2 forged beadlock?

I think there is a good chance this is correct, the wheels are the most significant difference in our BR's besides color's, fabrics, etc.

I feel as though the date I eventually landed on (8/1) is now solid because, for the first time, I received an email from Ford today confirming the 8/1 date. Thank you Ford!

I guess we can make the assumption that the wheels in this case are not the sole commodity that may be causing build date adjustments. Congrats to both of you, won't be long now. ;)

Thank you for the links. I was calling my dealer for updates and at least I can see it now. Was June now August so par for the course. I assume since I've had to wait 2+ years for this that I'll be offered 0% financing for at least 24 months, right?

The payments for an 80k car at 0% for 24 months are 3000. That's a little steep 😀😀😀😀
