I heard a rumor that we won't be back at MAP until the 2nd week of January but that my only apply to the Bronco line(s). 2020MY Mustang Balance Out Date is 12/16/2020 with 2021MY Mustang Job #1 Date on 01/04/2021. 2021MY Ranger Job #1 Date is 12/07/2020. The latest FDNB (Fleet Bulletin) shows the week of December 28th as the only scheduled "down" week for Ranger. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that MAP rumor is true it must only apply to Bronco team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did just get paid out on 30 hours of vacation time I didn't have a chance to use though so that helped pay for my kids' Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya those unused vacation hours always come in handy although the union kind of frowns on it. With the covid downtime we’ve all had and the other lay-off weeks this year is an anomaly when it comes to using up all the hours. The extra cash always help at Xmas time.

This dealer group is weird - since they took over from AutoNation a few years ago, they run things strangely - they have half their lot empty right now, and find it hard to believe they sold all those trucks at once.

I bet they’re shaving inventory to keep prices higher for walk in buyers who want something right now.

Yes but it doesn't look like an Escape and considering all the criticism many have had of the new Escape this version wearing the Bronco name so prominently will attract a lot of attention on the road as well as sales.

Exactly, because they should just ignore the hundreds of thousands of buyers who don’t like Bronco Sport styling. Plus selling 150k of one vehicle is better than selling 300K+ of two vehicles. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Hardy on You Tube reviewed a Big Bend model today out of Provo, Utah. That dealership has two. Looks like western states are getting the first shipments trickling in fron Mexico. Ben Hardy gave it a good review.....good steering feel and sure footed handling with good visibility. Lower trim level didn't impress me and engine sounded strained when floored. Ben called the acceleration "adequate." He said 2.0 would be best option. I agree. 2.0 or forget it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Designing a vehicle to attract both types of buyers is the way to go. (inventory, parts, marketing costs etc...) I'm hoping Bronco Sport becomes so popular that they ditch the Escape and make Bronco Sport in both plants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
