4/24/2023 Build Week

Got your Bronco?

I did! I ended up spending about four hours at the dealer but was able to get all the price protection owed thanks to documents posted here. They applied the certificate right away but we had to debate on the individual options refund cost for a bit.

It's been crazy at work the last two days so still has under 100 miles on it right now. About to go put my hood struts and grab handles in and go for a nice drive in the country finally.

It means that on the tracker the status is "In Production". In the system that dealers, marketing people on the phone, and the chat bots have access to, there's a secondary status... My secondary status says it's produced. So I've been told that it's just waiting to get onto a train and then the status will update to built and then shipped.

I guess I’m just wondering about those people that got the “chain delivery” email. Are they showing “built” and they still got the email or are they only showing “in production”?

Awesome! Enjoy the ride.

I got one of the emails too, "about staying in communication with me every 45 days", and I am shipped.

Just got my rail car # from the ford chat bot. I was able to use the tracking to see that in two days it has moved from Michigan to Indiana- At this pace I'm expecting it by Christmas

Nice! I'm in Austin too... Which dealership? I'm at Covert. My dealer contact also has a Bronco on order and is also stuck in Production Purgatory...

Yeah, I think it is usually slow going until you get out of Indiana!

My train spent a couple days going North and South in IN and IL in a seemingly random fashion. Once it finally moved up into MN and turned West it made much more steady progress.

Yeah, as soon as BNSF got ahold of it, it boogied across the country.

To those who are waiting it will absolutely be worth it!!

Took over 24 hours since the tracker updates, but I finally got the “built” email.

I’ve got to ask, who else had a stockpile of accessories and upgrades waiting in the garage before they even got this email?

Not a "big" pile, but yes... I have some stuff to do. Travelling on business the last few days and it goes back on Tuesday to get the tint re-done, but then the Redline hood struts and the Mabett interior light kit will go in later this week. Also have the Mabett rear cupholders, but I bought the rubber floor mat kit and it covers the rear hump and I don't know yet if that will interfere with the cup holders... Also have the Mabett dome light in my cart to order.

The audio stuff will be another couple of weeks... Got the Fusion amp, ordered the Tang Band sub and the Infinity 4" for the dash with Recoil 600hz bass blockers. Probably going to order the IAG rear pods and Infinity 6.5's when I order the V-Gate adapter for Forscan.

Took my family out for some mild off-roading as our last day as a family of four. My wife is being induced tomorrow morning, so it was real mild off-roading

Congrats!!!

And mild is A-ok, at least you know you have the tools to get you through whatever you might find.

due to part constraints and package updates I always had a couple questions about what I would get once delivered so if anyone else is wondering.

4 door Outer Banks, Lux, modular bumper, leather seats

1. bash plate on mod bumper was steel, not plastic
2. temp display is included in the adjustment knobs
3. leather seats are the 10 way power seats
