Finally received my Bronco baby picture. 3/22 blend date. Estimated delivery to dealer is 4/14 - 4/20.

I saw a bronco (4 door though) in this color yesterday and it's so beautiful!

My window sticker blend date is 3/11 but both the email I received and tracker state it was built 3/25, no photo of her yet, nor does it say it’s been shipped. Tracker and email still state ETA of 4/10-4/16, any insight? I live in Rhode Island

Did you try this URL: https://ordertrack.app/ enter your Order # and the VIN to see the Status. This is a Tracker designed by the B6G Member, if you are not already aware of it.

Try Ford Chat from your Mobile and they could give you more info on the ETA and the Railcar #. Mine has reached the East Brookfield Rail Yard MA on 04/04 and awaiting to be picked up by the Dealer.

On your window sticker, what is the date at the very bottom? Below the margins of the window sticker itself.

Dealer just emailed. They are working on getting it trucked from the railyard to the dealer. They are really trying for a Thursday delivery. Fingers crossed.

well we got so close last night but had to walk away from our original reservation Bronco from 9/29/20. The dealer was constantly playing games and threatened to add a $5k-$10k markup up back in October when we went to reorder as a 2022. We tried switching but they denied it bc the dealer removed the markup and agreed to sell at MSRP. Not trusting them at that point we placed a second order on 11/17 at a different dealer who has been great every step of the way. In January of 2022 we got frustrated from not getting scheduled so we decided to switch our original reservation to a soft top in hopes of getting it sooner and leave the newly placed order as a hard top and maybe get it a year later whenever it would get scheduled. As it turned out both orders got scheduled the next cycle and 2 weeks apart. The first dealer then lowballed our trade in offer on our Jeep and when I told them I will sell it on my own they threatened to add a $5k markup for not trading a vehicle in during an inventory shortage After agreeing on a trade in price we moved forward and intended to take the original order arriving 2 weeks sooner and just trade it in to the second dealer when time came, but that was not an option as the original dealer wanted us to sign a legal form last night stating we could not sell it for 6 months or we would owe them $10k. It was hard to walk away but we are glad to be done with the games and excited to move on with the new dealer. Here’s the pic of the would have been first Bronco from our original reservation.

It’s been fun but I’ll be over in the 4/4 build group now awaiting what we are calling our “Real” Bronco now! Good luck to you all and Enjoy your Broncos!!

I didn’t check the sticker till it was built, my original build week was 2/14

T-Minus 1 day till my Delivery ETA window starts. I keep checking palsapp expecting an early surprise but it says pending. At least I know it's sitting in the yard lot.

Wish I could get a baby pic, but I never made a reservation. Love seeing all the pics though!!

Would've had to. The original WS date at the bottom is the date it was issued. It changes every time the vehicle is scanned.

This is good. That means something happened with your Bronco that day - it was scanned for one reason or another. My Ford trackers did not update to shipped until well after the ship date. I got my email only days ago. But, what happened with me is that the WS updated, and shortly afterward I was able to confirm with Ford Chat that it had a rail car assigned.

Your next step is to find out from Ford chat if a rail car number has been assigned (since you're in R.I., it will be traveling by rail). My hope for you is that the 4/7 date is when it was loaded onto a rail car.

I don't think that contract would be enforceable. I'm glad you're done with the headaches and drama (especially as you'd have to go through all the rigamarole of trading in another car and the negotiation that goes into that), but such liquidated damages clauses are generally frowned upon by the Court. Especially here as the dealer would not have suffered any damages.
