11/28/2022 Build Week

[iceicecream]

I’m the same boat as most of you guys commenting the past 24 hrs. Built 12/6 but still no shipped notice, however I just called Ford Marketing to get a better answer than Chat’s “awaiting shipment”… marketing said it’s been released since 12/9. Due to shipping delays it’s sitting there, just awaiting shipment, as far as she can see. Coming to Tampa Bay Area I’m assuming it won’t make it by the most recent 12/30-1/5 EDD.
Although it’s always nicer to talk to someone-then you know it’s not a bot or just copy and paste answers- still a bummer. SO. MUCH. WAITING

I agree it’s very nice talking to someone. I will say though there has to be more to the story then just shipping delays. Like I mentioned last week a lot of people are noticing builds that were built after them and shipping and arriving right away. It happened to me. Someone at my dealership had it built after me got their baby pic and shipped notification and it showed up at the dealership not even a week later.

Actually it was before his estimated and within mine. Which really made me upset when I saw it at the dealership on Christmas Eve. Now mine is moved to 12/29-1/4 but still no shipping status today. Just awaiting shipping. It doesn’t make sense even if it was shipping delays. I got so mad last week though I’m just trying to be chill about it now and accept that I’m going to be bent over on interest rates when my lock expires.

I just want to understand why something that gets built so close to a build and is going to the same place doesn’t get put in the same shipping orders. Hell even Amazon knows to package things together going from one place to the same place. It’s just basic logistics.

Headed to Texas and it is leaving Kansas today. I have an ETA of 12/29-1/4 Hoping it gets here this week!!

What was your blend?

Blend was 12/1, shipped on 12/17

I imagine this can be the only explanation for what is happening to a lot of us.

You know if there was an actual explanation I’d listen…. But in my opinion this is so unacceptably random and unprofessionally put together it’s tragic. Weather aside I would listen though I am not a monster.

Took delivery today! Dealership is 2.5 hours away, and on the way home, we encountered some snow. Got to test it out immediately

Hope you all get yours soon!

At the Argo, IL yard. BNSF is supposed to ship it to Texas tomorrow. Not holding my breath.

Could have bought a Porsche with the same money. Ford doesn’t realize what they are screwing up. They should have white-glove deliveries to customers home.

After sitting at the railyard in Kirby, TX for 10 days, it finally arrived at the dealership today. Hopefully picking it up tomorrow.

Anyone who's taken delivery have any starter issues?
This past Friday, after Elliot blew threw and dropped the temps in the negatives here, my 2.5 week old Bronco would not start. It's sitting at the dealership waiting to be looked at, but wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar? According to the tow truck driver, he had 1 Bronco last week that he towed to a dealer with the same issue.

Think about it from their perspective. They are saving money by not shipping cars and trucks to dealers who can’t move them. Creating a ADM price structure where dealers and consumers can buy a product and resell it at a decent profit. Literally nothing we can do except stop buying the product. Let’s be real, we live in a capitalistic society where we inculcate these ideals. It’s not a bad thing, but the only person who get screwed is the little guy.

Mine has been sitting in the rail/auto yard lot in East Brookfield, MA since 12/9. What I thought was going to be an xmas miracle has passed me by. I've never been more drained of enthusiasm and hope. Where are the drivers!? What is going on?!

Probably everyone’s battery going bad from sitting so long at the plant after being built. I’ll probably just go ahead and replace mine when it comes right away since I know it’s sat at the plant during the winter storm.

I just did the same. They know nothing. mine changed from 12/31 -1/5. I don’t feel like it’s possible.
