No remorse, but I don't love it. In hindsight, if I had the opportunity to test drive before reserving and ordering, I wouldn't have waited. Or I would have waited a few years in hope of them working out all the kinks.
Finally. After 3 months on Ice Mountain, the Bronco sat at the railyard for 5 days before making it the last 30 miles to the dealership. Hate to admit that I don't love it. Nothing specific, it is just kind of anticlimactic. Time will tell. Fingers crossed for everyone still waiting.
It never effing ends.
Salesman called Friday morning - my Bronco was on the transport expected anytime, but at the latest it would be Saturday morning.
As of mid-morning Monday, transport has not arrived, and "management" is trying to figure out where it is.
It is 28 miles from the railyard...
Today on the pizza tracker, I learned that I am getting a King Ranch Bronco! I noticed that the items listed under Accessories, Packages, etc, are live links, and when I clicked through them, this popped up:
Prior to our build week debacle, it seemed like the baby picture emails were sent on Tuesdays, and some ended up in spam folders, so you might want to check there.
Hoping everyone left on the spreadsheet wakes up to build emails this week.
As others predicted, the shipped email came in short order. Now for the train ride for which I will get zero information from my dealer, and the waiting game to see if they try to stick it to me. This process has...
My current game is to guess which Bronco calendar page will represent my delivery month. Brown rock seems out of the question. Hoping for gray 'silver anniversary' terrain. Latest EDD is evergreen trees. With my luck, it will be the Exorcist-vomit green hills of May.
@helifino16 - thanks...
I was led to believe that part of the build scheduling process was assessing the available components and matching them to orders "Your reservation* timestamp, and not the date that you place your order with your dealer, will be used to determine when your Bronco gets produced. Other factors for...
Me too! My Dad had a green and white Bronco when I was a kid, so I was actually okay with the switch to '22 so I could get Eruption Green. Then Ford yanked my chain, so I was back to being excited about a '21. Hope they all get coal in their stockings.
Curious about how many of us 12-sixers were originally told that we wouldn't get a '21 model? It seems like a special form of torture to have gotten the "you ain't gettin' one this year" email, then the "psych, you are actually scheduled for production" email, only to get through every other...
