LOL at least you missed the excitement of using it from city to city wondering why I'm the world it stayed Gallup, NM for 2 days. I was going to tint the front windows anyway because they are very light privacy glass, so win win.

Autocorrect did me dirty on that message‍

Good point. I’ll reach out and see what he says.

hopefully we get ours soon. Let me know if you hear anything more. I suspect we will be on the same truck… but who knows lol

Maybe this time they'll tell you it's on the truck and keep it a mystery for me

Just got the picture from the dealer. Mine has arrived!

Congratulations Jimbo - nice looking rig.
The upgrades begin - Being that I have the Badlands that came with the rock sliders (and my wife was having a bad time getting up into it) I just installed a pair of DV8 slider steps.
So if anyone knows someone who could use the stock badlands sliders and are near Sacramento Ca - I will give them away for free. They are just going to clutter up more - my already cluttered garage.

Same here, just when you thought it was over, another ETA bump

Yeah, it said Rail car was empty yesterday morning when I checked it..... then saw the bump. Guess trucks are a commodity these days. Mine is so close to the dealer though...LOL Oh Well, been 15 months....last week wont kill me...

Nice. How do you like the quality ? Im looking at the frame mounted sliders, I like the way DV8 angles up on thiers. I like a few other frame mounted as well.

Thanks, I am going down there tomorrow to pick her up. Going to go straight to the shop for the 2-inch lift and installing the SAS wheels and tires. That looks sharp, you really need a step if you're not going to be doing any serious off-roading!

Well not to get anyone too excited, I just got a text from the dealership. The manager has confirmed that mine will be delivered tomorrow. I'm not getting too pumped up until I actually see a pic of it there. I seem to remember someone else being told their Bronco was there and it wasn't

They told me last night it would be there today and it happened. It will be there!

Woohoo! Pushed back, again… this time 5/15-5/21…. 9th times the charm?

CM53119,

Estimated Delivery 5/15/2022 - 5/21/2022 Given the number produced and delivered after ours have sat built, I believe it's safe to say there is no rhyme or reason to when they ship. They really need to hold Jack Cooper Trucking liable for not shipping as agreed.

My delivery window just changed from 4/29 - 5/5 to 5/3 - 5/9. Which is sad since it’s sitting in a rail yard less than an hour away from my dealer.

yup….I’m really hoping mine is as simple as they are waiting for more vehicles for my area. My dads is set to be built on 5/9 and going to the same dealer. Maybe then.

mine finally landed at the dealership yesterday... hot damn guys I'm so stoked!

So far quality looks good. The powder coat is solid and the step plates are riveted on not screwed so should not loosen. One thing - you won’t want to climb in bare foot - these have some gnarly none slip tread on them. I liked them as they sit high and tie to the body so even if I do some heavy trails they shouldn’t hang up on anything. Just enough of a step to get a foot on and they don’t stick out to far. These mount to the same location on the body under panel as the stock sliders so I don’t think they are “frame mounted”.
