Nitrogen…the biggest ripoff in the industry right now. Unless it is going on a racetrack, or the driver checks air pressure daily and maintains it within 1/2 psi of optimum, it isn’t helping anything but the dealer’s bank account.Or it could be they just need time to tint your windows and put nitrogen in your tires, so they can charge another $2K for the “Protection Package”…
There seems to be more than normal numbers of cars being delivered to the medium sized dealer I work at. Their new car get ready department is probably backed up. I took mine without the prep, all prep involves now is checking oil and coolant levels, tire pressure, and clean up. Dealer may be reluctant to do it, but if you feel like you are capable, you can always ask.My dealer has just informed me the Bronco will arrive tomorrow (Saturday), but will not be ready for me to take delivery until Wednesday?
All the timelines I've seen on here were arrived at dealer one day, took delivery the very next, usually.
Did anyone else wait several days before taking delivery?

Agree with the minimal prep. I was able to pick mine up the day after delivery, but had told the sales manager that I did not want it washed, no installation of front license plate frame, and to leave all stickers on vehicle.Some dealers automatically put the Broncos on their website with the ADM even if it belongs to someone and they have no intention of selling it to someone else. My Bronco had a $20k markup on the sticker and I picked it up a few hours after it arrived there.
@LeafusCheeseboro, I'd recommend only asking for your dealer to do the bare minimum with your Bronco. Don't let them remove any of the plastic film or protection on the inside and have them skip the carwash too (so that they don't add any swirl marks, especially if its black or a darker color). Maybe this will speed up the process a bit, but at the very least it'll make sure the car is protected and touched as little as possible.
Mine was delivered on a Monday afternoon (2/13/23), and thank goodness I started the financing portion with my credit union a week prior once I saw a shipped notification on the Ford Tracker (credit unions seem to process auto loans much slower than traditional banks) Picked up my Bronco the next day (2/14/23) after stopping by the credit union for the check. I had told my dealer and sales person several times NOT to drill in the Bronco for the front tags and not to remove any plastic, decals, window sticker and leave as it was delivered, and not to wash or detail to avoid swirl marks or scratches because I had a PPF/ceramic and detail appointment the following week. Installed my mudflaps before driving off the lot and the rest is history!My dealer has just informed me the Bronco will arrive tomorrow (Saturday), but will not be ready for me to take delivery until Wednesday?

If they have staffing challenges or a bunch of vehicles arriving at once, it could be possible. Factor in weekends some departments may not work either. Lastly, in many cases your sales person will want to deliver your vehicle to you - they may be off for a couple of days.My dealer has just informed me the Bronco will arrive tomorrow (Saturday), but will not be ready for me to take delivery until Wednesday?
