Bronco6G Therapy

Mine has been sitting at the railyard since 12-4-21. 63 miles as the crow flies from the dealership. Don't think that just because it is built that you will get it fast. They can't find delivery trucks/drivers to get them to the dealers. Plan on 2-3 weeks for delivery if you are going by rail. A couple people in our build week are by convoy and they have not left the plant yet.

I feel your pain mine is still sitting at the plant, I'm assuming haven't heard otherwise!

I am patiently sad but optimistic. You know..given everything that is going on in the world and the fact that I am not in desperate need for a vehicle and all the supply chain issues companies are experiencing across industries I have relegated to just patiently waiting...I am even not expecting my vehicle in 2022...then anything that comes from Ford will be a surprise...hahahaha

Bewildered, mainly. I work at a company roughly the size of Ford, and the idea of keeping tens of thousands of likely customers mostly in the dark about the status a $50,000 purchase is really odd to me. They have given a bunch of enthusiast customers a really poor experience. That speaks to internal failures on several levels.

Not angry. The situation is what it is.

My wait is over.
I would have probably been known as a Ford apologist thru most of it ...
... then the Dirt Mountain debacle happened, which had the net effect of pissing all over my Wheaties.
That was the absolute worst part of it, knowing it was built but holding it for two and a half months for a new top.... which is still fucked up.
I really feel for the DMG CREW, the multi-build date folks, and those held in shipping limbo, etc etc .... it sucks royally.

Changing my own vote to angry now…

I thought this was inquiring how many of us have significant others that think we need therapy for how much time we spend on B6G.

Honestly? I've been "patient" since before reservations were open. Now I'm just "angry". Months of searching for a dealer that wasn't at least 5k over MSRP, or in the @Granger Ford situation of offering a great deal, but getting fucked by Ford... Finding a dealer and making a deal, getting a phone call saying that the dealer was tied up in the process of being sold, finding out that my dealer was changing hands to a Chevrolet dealer, losing my deal for invoice at a dealer that had allocations... The endless issues with production and delivery, the hard top 1 and 2 issues, dirt mountain, ice mountain, constraints, constraints, constraints... I'm just done. The bronco is incredibly badass and, at least to me, the coolest vehicle anybody has introduced in forever. But I'm a half step from just not caring anymore and buying something else. The Bronco is incredible and worth every penny. Ford is a clusterfuck shit show that's doing their level best to sink the Bronco.

Maybe its just me but this site and group help me feel like I am involved and there is some action. No info from the Ford people and the tracking tool that is down more than it is up is just terrible. Thanks to everyone for participating and for the mostly civil and polite discussions!

I am angry AH after reading some of the build date threads and seeing the evidence with my own eyes that people have ordered as little as a month ago with no reservation and have build dates.

Sure, I have seen posts complaining about it, but I am relatively new to board and brushed it off to a rare anomaly. Nope - post after post in those threads mention no res and a build date. Glad for them, but @fordmotorcompany should be embarrassed for the way they have handled this. 7)14/20 res here.

I know I am preaching to the choir - just venting.
