Greetings.

1) Have a VIN, sticker, and blend date of 7/02. How legit are these blend dates on the stickers? Is that a projected blend date or a "hey we have all the parts so lets build it".

2) Has Ford ever built vehicles before? :)

Mine was built on June 16th, confirmed by both Ford customer service and the dealership. However I never received an email. I still don’t have my bronco one month after the build date. It was supposed to have shipped on 6/30. The dealership found out Ford was having issues with invoicing. I told them I would just come and pick it up. I live 30 min away. Sad that I don’t have my long awaited vehicle Due to some administrative issue. Hopefully you don’t experience the same thing.

Thanks for the reply. I figure I’d give it 2 more months then go buy something else. Bronco is cool but not that cool considering some of the new Jeeps out there.

Same here. I have a 7/2 blend date. In production date shows as 7/12. Called customer service and they say it's produced and awaiting shipment. But, there are folks with a 7/14 blend date and they already have delivery estimates. It's getting old. I don't understand how they have delivery dates and they have build dates after me. It's all weird.

Mine was built on 7/2

Went to a 3rd party on the 7/9 to get "something" Installed on it (clear bra, mud flaps, or roof racks)

Returned to Ford 7/13 and is still showing in production as of this AM.

How did you know it went to a 3rd party? The only update I've received since Monday is the bottom date on my window sticker updated today to 7/16. At this point, I'm not sure it means anything.

From Fords internal system

built on July 2 and sent to the body company on the 11th

In Production - Returned from Body Company Ford Michigan Assembly Plant, MI Jul-13-2021, 00:00 EDT.

From my sticker, under the shipping dealer

GROUND EFFECTS 39055 MAPLE AVE WAYNE MI

Ground Effects pops up on a couple Ranger stickers I saw online and the one I looked at has a towing package on it.

Production date has changed from 6/21 to 7/5 to 6/28....This week it updated again to 7/12 and shows "in production". Still no word as to being built. On the week of the 28th it showed "in production" as well. Not sure what the deal is, lol

Just spoke to the dealer, it has in fact been built! Allegedly waiting on shipment by rail. They said probably be in CA in 3-4 weeks. Tracker still shows, "In production."

Good luck! I'm waiting to see when mine shows up. Still have hopes to get it by the end of this month.

mine went into production 6/24, but the date on the tracker didn’t show up until 7/12 with a production date of 7/12. Nothing since.
