Hey, glad to contribute however I can. Just a running list I've kept as I come across issues that others have had. I'm sure there is more to look out for... ๐Ÿ™‚

i gotta say this last stretch of the journey for me has been the hardest, last week i had something to occupy me by checking on rail car location it kept slowly making progress all week with a lot of check ins along the way, now its been sitting unloaded in omaha since last friday, i keep telling myself not to bug my dealer as my delivery window is 10/18-10/24, now its just a silent waiting game, im at the mercy of the trucking company on when they want to move it, no updates at all, i was hoping with it arriving to the pickup location so early it would get picked up fairly quickly, but the trucking companies are obviously backlogged right now
My tracker updated to delivered tonight. Might want to check yours incase we were on the same truck.

Let me add that there is a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) for preventing the roll cage scratches. I've seen that new builds are coming in with the felt pads installed at the factory, but worth checking anyway.

https://www.bronco6g.com/tsb-for-soft-top-roof-paint-scratches-on-sports-tube-roll-bar/

There are also Paint Protection Film kits to apply to the areas of the painted roll cage that are common spots for these scratches, if you want some extra protection.

Bottom line is apparently to open and close the top carefully without pushing the top sideways. Keep it centered during opening and closing.

Pulling for everyone here that is in limbo. I felt the same even up to this past Sunday when I got another shipping notice delay (6 total) then things moved fast as I got shipped Monday morning by convoy and I picked up my Bronco up last night. Really impressed so far....I've been surprised that most of my family has said how big it is. The front end certainly does look impressive/beefy when you are standing by it (plus I'm only 5' 9").
