What do you mean some? If you ever get the chance to go to MAP the guys that drive them off the line all joy ride them. It’s a madhouse
Two things you never want to see being made, sausages and your new car.

Due to the fact that shipping has become so backlogged with rail and trucks weeks behind schedule, Ford has started a new program. Ford will start hiring Bronco Convoy Delivery Drivers to try and move the thousands of Bronco's stuck on Mud Mountain. This program is being implemented to help new Bronco owners receive their Bronco's as soon as possible after the March 31st deadline to get the Broncos ready for shipment.

Owners will receive 1 FordPass point for each mile put on the Bronco during delivery.

Apply today:

Also heard they were going to recycle old PCs for the chips to get caught up.

My point. Offering a solution. If they can ship vehicles without chips surely they could find a way to take delivery at Ford. It will never happen, but problem solved. I probably know a few thousand 6g members that would be happy to complete the purchase at their dealer, hand over release papers, pull off the protective wrap and drive it home.
My guess is that delivery cost is massively padded and is a profit center. Won’t give that up…. Dealers also have to pretend to add value by pulling plastic off the seats

Not an April fool joke unless Ford themselves is in on the game.

Just got my window sticker today and it does show Convoy. Worth noting my dealer is only like a 17 mile drive from MAP.

That said I'm a little miffed about paying 1495 for destination and delivery.
