If you saw the amount of work that still needs to be done just in body shop alone, you would understand why we aren't going to start building the earliest builds for another 6 months at least. Literally half of the building is still empty despite all of the stuff they installed over the Christmas break. You also don't really want to show it off after those builds start because that's how leaks happen. Oh no. I'm not saying now on this project. This one is what it is at this point. I mean in general on new vehicle programs/launches when you're starting the project years out, make a target date closer to the show/anticipated launch. Obviously things can change, but I'm just thinking there's got to be a way to shorten that gap - other companies do it.

I think the problem is Ford is always pushing to launch these new vehicles as soon as possible already and there are so many moving parts with factory retooling, etc. Its easier with a new version of an exiting model.

silvrsvt Posted January 21, 2020 Author Share Posted January 21, 2020 All these "leaks" are making me wonder if something is happening sooner then later-we go from 0 to having a "controlled" leak of the Baby Bronco or Bronco every 4-5 days now it seems...

Well, it wouldn't be Bronco - why would Ford trumpet "Spring 2020" if something were happening sooner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzymoomoo Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Ford: "Let's cut cost, cut as much as you can. Engineers: "But we need new camo that says Bronco" Ford: "No you don't." Engineers: "Coommmmee on!" Ford: "Fine, order as much as you want" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those windows seem to be hiding something though. You can also see on the inside, the trim looks pieced together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
