I also ordered on 3/27. Email confirmation received same day.

04/03 received VIN and build date: 05/15

between then and last week it bounced around between. 05/15 - 05/19 - 05/17.

today my tracker moved to “in production” and my window sticker is generated.

Zero, the production date held. The day of the week did change but never the actual build week.

based on your thread count, you are a new-born

So here's a pro tip

Did you notice that all your dates happen to be on a Monday (5/22, 5/29 & 6/12)?

When you are scheduled, you WILL always 1st receive a build week. Ford's build week always start on Mondays (build weeks start on Mondays and end on Sundays).

Build weeks gets moved often. It basically means, Ford wants to make sure all parts for your Bronco is available before you get assigned a build day (also known as a blend date .. a blending of body, chassis and drive train). Let's say your build week never moves again from 6/12. When 6/12 approaches you will be assigned a build day.

Ford example, your build week is 6/12 (Monday) with a build day of Thursday 6/15. Please note, 7 days before your build day, you will see your online window sticker via this URL ... just add your VIN the end of this URL >> https://www.windowsticker.forddirect.com/windowsticker.pdf?vin=

On your window sticker towards the bottom, you will either "rail" or "convoy". I see you are in NY. Your bronco will most likely come via "convoy" (truck). Convoy is always faster. Rail is slow as hell.

BTW .. your online window sticker is a PDF. Save a digital copy for yourself as once you take delivery, the WS will dissappear online. Having a digital copy is nice. If you ever sell it, you can share it with the buyer.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Oh for sure, I feel fortunate, it’s just annoying. But heck they had price jumps mid model year this year and right before they opened the banks. So the bronco id been mock building for weeks leading up needed up being like 2k more. If they push me far enough I’m gonna hope for some new colors in 2024 and I’ll just cancel and reorder 😂

I did notice that, and thank you for all the info 👍🏻. I’m actually in Michigan though, if only they’d just let me drive it out of the factory 😂
