🛠 01/24/22 Build Week Group

[breezybrah]

What I'm trying to wrap my mind around is how there's vehicles built, but sitting on "convoy delay". Meanwhile dealerships are receiving broncos coming from the exact same location with blend dates from the AFTER some of our build dates. That has about as much logic to me as stocking green bananas before the ripe ones. Make it make sense!

Most likely scenario is your Bronco is in a lot that the convoy trucks can't reach and it has to be moved into an accessible lot.

I have a feeling my Bronco has always been built with proper chips, as ever since my alleged blend date my Ford Pass app has had the "please wait till you take delivery before activating" or whatever it is. My theory is when Ford went to QC my bronco to see if they needed to put it back on the line for chips, they saw it was fine and now its in the back of some lot 5 miles from the shipping/outgoing yard.

Theres also a part of me that wonders if we're all getting delays straight from Jim Farley. Payback for some of our fellow build week members trolling his Twitter and calling him out for Fords incompetence. It's all just a conspiracy against us for daring to question his majesty. He's probably the guy congratulating those that do get built on here. Sitting at his computer laughing maniacally at our bitter responses.

All of this positive movement gave me the itch to pull the trigger on a Bestop TrekTop. I LOVE that slant back look, and it's worth the investment to not have to deal with the crappy setup of propping the gate open with that latch arm every time I want to get something out of the back! Also, no wavy back windows!

Long time follower, First time poster. This is exactly what's happening, Mine was built 3/6 after a 1/28 blend date. I've talked to the local Ford Zone Manager a couple times about mine and that's what's up. Carriers can't get to the vehicles since they are in a "undeliverable" state because MAP has them piled up in auxiliary lots.

Welp, I’m sure I’ll be the one from this group to turn off the lights on Dirt Mountain. Ford chat still has me in production with an EDD of August 10.
