So what’s the verdict on 9/6 build week?Tuesday/Wednesday were fine but Thursday/Friday may not have been built?

8/30 week seems like some Mon/Tues people are stuck in production still for possible QC reasons. Later week builds seem to have moved on fine. My Friday mid day 9/3 build finished up by 7am on Tuesday 9/7 and I think was picked up by convoy this afternoon.
There was some movement on 9/6 week builds today, just not nearly as many. Some line workers on MIC 2.0 tops slowed down progress? We haven't been pushed back yet.

How about some answers, @Ford Motor Company ? Your silence is deafening? You may think from your position of knowledge that it's ok to keep quiet, but try being in our shoes. Time to speak up. It's not ok to treat customers laying down $60K+ on your products this way. What is up with 9/6 week blend date Broncos?

Serious question….How’s everyone feeling?
So, I mine was built and shipped, so I’m obviously very excited. But in all honesty, I feel really bummed for everyone who hasn’t gotten good news this week. This was supposed to be our party thread, you know? High fives all around, chest bumps, cheers and the like, but we didn’t get that, which really really sucks.
COVID. I get it. Microchips. I get it. Toxic subcontractor work environments. I get it. Shit happens, god knows I’ve learned that lesson enough times in my life, but I still fail to understand how Ford is continuing to set unrealistic expectations. As in, why schedule 888 builds for the week of 9/6, when you have yet to meet even one weekly build quota? At this point, the wishful thinking is only breeding greater dissent amongst the army of enthusiasts who were supposed to be your greatest poster children. Aren’t there logistical specialists who get paid a lot of money to take an ugly bag of snakes like this, and lay them out straight? Here’s the point: someone/some people have really dropped the ball—slash are still dropping the ball and show no sign of picking said ball back up—and I think more than care packages and vapid, platitudinous, “we’re sorry” emails, the majority of us would like to know who these ball droppers are, and what is actually going to be done to change things.
So, how am I feeling? Excited, yes, because my pony’s on its way, but also supremely frustrated, because I have found genuine connection with this community, and this massive turd of a logistical failure has turned our build-week-party-threads into emotional support groups.

Entitled rant over.

But seriously, those apology emails…

Seems like the vast majority of the remaining 9/8 crew likely got modules overnight. Now let's see it roll into 9/9 crew. Looking for good news from @BroncoBuckaroo since you are first on the list for 9/9 blend crew.
