Adding a Yakima Fat Cat EVO 6 rack to a 4dr BL with the 33" MT tires and a factory-installed roof rack will produce a total height of ~80". I have 1" clearance thru the garage door... which is the same as infinity when all it needs to do is fit. Other rack types would not be so lucky.

Just don't forget to take the skis off before going into the garage!

Too true! I do have one pair with that problem. But space in the garage is limited enough that it's easier in my case to remove them outside anyway

The tracker's down, my window sticker date did not update, and my coffee tastes a little off. Putting that all together, pretty sure it means we're going to get our built emails Wednesday but will consult the tea leaves at lunch.

Gotta love the positive vibes!

It’s either laugh or cry, right?

Yup. Really. It's easier to joke and expect it will still be a while.

When you got all dressed for work and situated by the pool and it turns out it's a holiday.

Thats insane! For me, its about to be one week since my Bronco entered the railyard before getting to its final destination(The Dealer). Hopefully they start getting things moving on the first week of the month and get both of our Broncos out of that stinking rail yard.

Just called and my Bronco is still sitting in the rail car. They have no plan to remedy the situation and don't seem to care. They also have no system or concept of first-in first-out. You're kind of at the mercy of where on the track you end up being shoved. Rail cars that arrived well after mine have been unloaded.

Terrible. According to my dealer, they said that the longest they've seen a Bronco sitting at the rail yard before going to their dealership was 14 days. I can only guess that the hold up is most likely due to the lack of staff or just poor management in general. Either way, the wait is starting to beginning to feel unpleasant. Especially knowing that its so dam close.

My delivery updated from 1-4 to 1-8

My delivery went from 1/2/22 to 1/7/22 and this morning changed to 1/8/22. Guess another week I wait.

 

[Jo8n]

My delivery date finally updated.

I was also just pushed from 1/6 to 1/12. Seems the Ford website and "backdoor link" are also very glitchy this morning. The only tracker I'm able to access to see any updates is the link from my "shipped" email.

I can’t help but repost this and hope people read and realize what it says:

I'm a Computer Scientist so I take this to mean there are a number of variables that go into showing this value. The fact that mine showed 12/31 starting on 12/04 up through 01/03 makes me think either, today, a variable finally changed in my status changing the result or mine's simply calculated as:
(Today - 3).Month.LastDay
which would also give me the exact same result and on 02/04 it will change to 02/28

Joke's on me. My current ETA is actually 01/30 (not 01/31). Back to the drawing board

The best coder in the world couldn't predict this stuff. There is way too much chance caused by COVID interruptions, parts and supplies interruptions, and other factors. Spend the time getting ready for your new "baby's" arrival, and you'll be happy you did.

I agree totally but will still check daily
