How will they do a proper inspection on a dirty vehicle?
they were already inspected, unless the lot had hail or some freak storm there's no reason dust would hold anything up. It's a car not a grandfather clock.

I could swear I read after the top replacement, they're being run through the same inspection process that assembly line Broncos do. Those areas look pretty much hospital clean. Are they really gonna send dirty vehicles through? How would they spot any exterior defects under a coating of dirt?

I read this too it came form a map employee, i think its the full electrical systems test to ensure no gopher ate the wiring..... that being say it should be a fast tests one would think


lastly we need someone to go out there daily take pics to compare how many were there/are there then well know if they are getting shipped and if the mountain lot is getting less populated :)

I would volunteer but its a long drive everyday form colorado to do so lol

Who do we know here with the CIA? Can't we task a satellite to update us every day? It's that easy. Haha!

Also agree that updated pictures this weekend would be helpful! Hard to tell how much progress is being made just by the trickle of people reporting earlier this week that their status had shifted to "built".

they already went through the formal inspection process coming off the line where any exterior issues would have already been caught(and hopefully addressed before DM). At best they would hit them with a power washer before top swap to reduce dirt ingress but we already know front halves were swapped on the lot were they sat.

The vehicle must be running, bluetooth connected, and the connection accepted on it's end. Once done and it's connect anyone there can mess with the vehicle.

So nobody has confidence in Ford yet you think they will redundantly retest all aspects of a vehicle because it sat for 0 to 90 days? That's putting a lot of confidence in something that yields virtually zero benefit. Now if they have reason to suspect damage (hail, highwinds, squirrels etc) then it would make sense.

I'm all for it assuming it doesn't cause further delays, there just isn't a need purely due to sitting.
