AZ Buyer, Bronco Finally Shipped

[FishKzor]

I'm a 7/15/2020 11am reservist(?), and my 2-door Sasquatched Badlands has finally been blended, built, and shipped by rail.

Can any other Arizona buyers shed some light as to how long it took from their ship date, to their Bronco arriving at their local dealership down here?
They gave me a window of Aug. 3-9, but I'm taking that with a boulder-sized grain of salt.

Would rather hear real world experiences.

Thanks!

I'm on this train (maybe literally) as well. ETA to Blue Island is Aug 7 so from there to AZ I'm thinking 1+ days. Who knows.

Good luck Fish! Hope you get it soon!

Mine took 9 days to get from MAP to El Mirage - 4 days of that was getting to the Gibson, IN rail yard and then another 2 siting there. Then it took another 10 days to get it to the dealer from El Mirage. Then, since I was out of town, another week for me to drive town to Casa Grande to pick it up.

I'd give it at least 2 weeks from MAP to dealer. Back in late Jan, El Mirage had a major shortage of drivers/trucks going on, so stuff was backed up there. Not sure if that's still the case or not. Might be different if your dealer is local to the Phoenix area.

Mine shipped 6/7 to Scottsdale and still isn’t here. My original delivery window was 7/2 - 7/8 and has been pushed back every week since then. Rail car tracking has is in the state since July 2, just hasn’t been pulled from the train I guess.

Maybe it will be here some time this year, but who knows?!

This was supposed to say 14 days not 1+. Left MAP 8/3 to Walbridge, OH ETA 8/7. 4 days to go 50 miles doesn't sound great but at least it's moving. Maybe it'll pick up the pace once it transfers to Union Pacific.

Ouch. That doesn't give me a whole lot of confidence it'll be August for mine. Is it actually at the UP Phoenix rail yard?

Haha, unfortunately the Bronco is at the dealer getting the doors repainted.

No one is sure exactly where it is, other than it’s been in the state since July 2nd! The tracker from the dealer had it in Blue Island on June 24th, and the CSX automated tracker says it’s a lot closer but no one knows if it’s made it all the way to the yard. I’d assume so at this point unless the train got derailed somewhere lol

Is there any difference when you track on UP?
