*** DIRT MOUNTAIN Broncos - Built, Shipped, Delivered Tracker***

[Bronco_bre]

I wonder how many they have left to replace by 10/1 to keep their promise of “this month” to those built 7/2 and before?

I think FIFO was/is more of a goal than a process... Too many factors to consider, so we might be trending at times to a FIFO, but have some anomalies that throw it completely off. I was by the dealer yesterday to see how their "Bronco Sales Building" was coming along and talked to a couple of the Bronco "specialists" and both told me that they have seen a rush of increased shipments over the last 2 weeks. Instead of 4-6 Bronco's in transit to them at a time, it's running 13 to 15 right now. They didn't know what Dirt Mountain meant, but they actually knew it as the "storage yard". They had a call last week and were told that 50+ units a day were coming off the yard. This dealer is #2 in total reservations nationally behind Granger...

My dealership is 20 miles from MAP. My bronco was finished over 2 weeks ago and still says waiting to ship.

I'm starting to think the more local stuff is taking longer to ship out. I've only been built for a few days, but someone else here has been waiting two weeks as well to a MI dealer. I'm 45 min from MAP...what's your delivery ETA?

I am thinking FIFO is impossible if they blocked our early units with the later ones making them hard to retrieve. This is my only reasoning for us having to wait 100 + days after build date for a vehicle we reserved almost 2 years ago.

I don't see how any units were "blocked" from how they were parked at DM.
From what I could see from the road all rows had easy access to pull out vehicles without the need to move another vehicle.

Got my built email this morning!

Ohhhh heck yeah! These time machines really are working wonders for Ford right now!
Let us know when you get a call from the Dealer!!!

Texted my dealer saying that it showed as delivered . here was his response... apparently he doesn't know I refresh the tracker 50 times a day

I hope you sent something like this in return.

There is humor in that... when I dropped some serious info bombs on the dealer yesterday, I got the chicken eye a few times. The "how the F you know that?" look...

ALL the info we have so far shows it is VERY organized.
When given a VIN and parking info, they are able to pull right up to the vehicle and drive it out.
This came from a MAP employee while on the top swap team.

So I haven’t added any info to the sheet, but figured I’d post here as part of the DM crew. I received my “Built” email this morning with an estimated arrival at my my dealer between 10/25-10/31, though it’s been between 14-18 days for others at my dealer to receive theirs, so hoping mid Oct delivery. My reservation was 6/13 for a Wildtrak with high package. I originally had a late June build date but that was pushed several times, as was many others, with an eventual blend date of 8/3.

With one day left in the month, I'm staggered at how many (just 6G) Broncos with June blend dates are still stagnant on Dirt Mtn. While I'm happy some (much) later Dirt Mtn builds are being recapped and released, it's still a real gut punch for everyone who should be "ahead" of them.

What part of Texas??

I wonder if they're doing FIFO, then filling in transports with regional additions...

I was thinking the same.

Based on zero actual knowledge on my part, just thinking about the logistics of it all - makes no sense to go strictly FIFO then have the finished product sitting around waiting for certain transport "corridors" (for lack of a better word) that are backed up - while other transport corridors that have capacity go unused. So what you suggest makes total sense.
