I would like to know the answer to that question too. I think they ship from MAP to West Memphis by rail and then are loaded onto transport trucks from there. My wife was in Little Rock yesterday and she said she saw two Broncos. one was a Badlands and the other she couldn't tell, but they both had the Sas package.
My wife was all excited one day and was bragging to me that she spotted a Bronco and took pics of it. She showed me and I had to give her the news that it was a Bronco Sport. I proceeded to show her what I ordered and she says, ā€œOh myā€¦.yesā€¦.thatā€™s a lot better looking. Iā€™m glad thatā€™s the one you have coming.ā€
ā€œYeah I didnā€™t order the soccer mom version,ā€ I replied šŸ˜†

I was under the assumption that they are moved by rail to Kansas City then by truck to Arkansas.

You could be right. I looked up the distribution terminals for the rail carriers Ford uses listed here on 6g, and there is one in West Memphis. Does anyone in the group know where they ship to once they leave MAP headed to dealers in AR?

I wish my dealer knew and also knew how to track it. They are either clueless or don't want to expend the energy required. My Bronco est. delivery date was last week, but still waiting.

I checked my dealer's website this morning and they have a stock Bronco in transit and it shows delivery by convoy on the window sticker.

Whitson-Morgan Ford has a couple models currently. They also have a Area 51/two door/2.3L Iā€™ve seen on their lot as well, not sure on price.

Well, the first NWA meet and greet trail ride ended with copious amounts of Mexican food and nothing broken. Who wants to join the next one?

And what a great day it was, too! (That's @kodiakisland's 2-door Black Diamond in the photo above, and the 4-door Badlands is mine.) :cool:

@kodiakisland and I first met online here on the forum over a year ago. He is a few years younger than me, but we both grew up in small towns in southwest Arkansas less than 30 miles apart. I have been fortunate to travel all around the world, visiting 28 countries and living in 5 over the last 30 years. Yet despite my extensive travels, he is still one of the most interesting people Iā€™ve ever met. He used to live on Kodiak Island in Alaska, is an accomplished private pilot whom I have flown with on multiple occasions, and is a lifelong hunter -- also a favorite past-time of mine. So we have a lot in common, and we have developed a pretty cool friendship in real life. šŸ‘

Now that we both have Broncos, we met this morning at his home for a little off-road exploring down Cove Creek Road near Farmington, a little southwest of Fayetteville.

This is the formal study in his house -- the first room you see when you walk in the front door, with French doors and clear glass panels...

Yes, that's right. The focal point of the entryway to his home is a hunting trophy room with a reloading bench. Definitely my kind of guy! :cool:

But wait, there's more... including a few in the living room! šŸ˜

And this is his beautiful silver Labrador Retriever, Foxy, the lovely dog in his avatarā€¦

Since neither of us have had a chance to install GMRS radios (i.e., General Mobile Radio Service) in our brand new vehicles, and we were going off the beaten path and well outside of cell tower coverage today, communication between vehicles would have been difficult, so we decided to just go together in the 2-door BD, which allowed us to talk throughout the journey, and also allowed me to snap some pics to share.

We didnā€™t tackle any great, technical challenges today, but we got the Bronco dirty, played around in 4x4, tested the Crawler gear, and scraped the bash plates.

Below are a few of my pics of the gravel roads, trails, bluffs, and creeks that we saw this morning, just to give you a sense for the Cove Creek Road areaā€¦.

After we explored for about 3 hours, we headed back to civilization for a late lunch of some hearty Tex Mex enchiladas at Gabriela's Mexican Grill Restaurant. šŸ˜‹

All in all, it was a wonderful day enjoying the great outdoors with a good friend. :cool:
