Nice! Good call waiting to sell. Sold my FJ a while back as our Bronco was any day now

Can't wait to see it in your hands as it will seem that much closer for us all!

 

[Jo8n]

Glad you guys are getting your trucks! Im a 1/25 blend in the same boat, finally built, waiting shipping. Everyone in this tread deserves their Broncos already.

Yeah. At some point, it just makes sense to get those MY21's finished. Still sucks to see it's so crazy that you're waiting 3 months for a '22. I was hoping they had gotten this process figured out!

We got our "baby pic" last night.

Got that shipped email yet @dallasobx ?

Nope, still nothing. Trapped in "awaiting shipment" limbo.

Ditto.

Sucks. It's easier to have faith now that we've gotten our shipped notification but I hope it's encouraging that things seem to be moving in our favor now--that is, lots more activity on the MY21's. Just sucks that they haven't gotten to shipping yours yet.

I look forward to when we can close out this thread.

I spoke with the sales manager at my dealership yesterday, and he said his contact at Ford corporate told him that the marketing team's promise to have all 21 MYs shipped by 3/31 caused chaos up at the factory in Michigan, and they have not been close to able to fulfill that promise. I.e., just more of the same, Ford promises one thing, and then fails to deliver. As of yet they have no idea when my Bronco will ship, and to their knowledge it's the last 21 MY undelivered to north Texas in general. Very fun, definitely winning over a new Ford customer...

Ugh. I'm sure chaos was inevitable with this move but I'm hoping it was in the MY21's favor.

I don't know if this will be encouraging or discouraging but the 12/6 week is showing 3-4 Texans' Broncos not yet shipped :/

Neither encouraging or discouraging, honestly not surprising. Ford does not seem to have any coherent communications process, so I'm sure misinformation (intentional or not) abounds.

Not to dampen or brag as there are STILL GUYS WAITING FROM OUR WEEK; but found this fun little Easter egg today that I hadn’t seen before:

“LIFT ME BABY!”

Wow. Even with a comma.

Is this under your fender?

Yessir. Under both front fenders.

 

[Jo8n]

Got the call! Should be at the dealer today. Going down after work to review the paper and see it. Hoping to sign and drive tomorrow.
