When will examples start to be released?

When do you think there will start being examples at dealerships? I placed my order and really want to see and sit in what I ordered.

The sales guy from our local Detroit area dealer told me that they are having a special customer event on March 23 where they will have a bunch of Bronco Sports but also one or two big Broncos. If I can make time that day, I'm gonna try to get into their demo session, but sitting in a vehicle after 100 other people have sat in it makes me a bit nervous in Covid times... Production is not supposed to start until summer.

They are already out there. There is a story on the home page newsfeed of a dealer that has one.

The Bronco Sport, based on the Escape, has been out and at dealers for quite some time. I have sat in a couple at dealers.

The big Bronco, based on the Ranger separate body/frame, does not go into production until at least May 3 based on production delays announced by Ford. This date may still be pushed back; suppliers are operating slowly these days. There are a few big Bronco prototypes and test vehicles out there.

Is it true that the hold up is the supply of the modular hard tops from Webasto ? Did anyone notice all Easter Broncos in Moab were soft tops?

Looks like yes, hard tops are an issue: https://fordauthority.com/2021/03/fo...22-model-year/

A couple of nits to pick.
No drivers side grab handle.
A rear hatch release button on the dash and the remote that only unlocks.
Wiper arms that can't be raised off the windshield in anticipation of winter weather.
