We had one of our broncos built on a Tuesday, at the dealer Wednesday!

Sorry to burst that bubble. My 2 dr was built with modules coming on line 11/15 near midnight. It was shipped at 11:10 am. on the 16th. I picked it up from the dealer at 4pm that day. Built, shipped, delivered, bought in under 18 hours. After waiting 18 months I 100 percent agree it was worth the wait. Congrats.I think I just set the record for Built to Delivered. Thank whatever Larger Energy that helped me along.
P.S. It is SO worth the wait!!!
Ordered 8/6/21, Built 12/26/21 waiting on shipping.....I think I just set the record for Built to Delivered. Thank whatever Larger Energy that helped me along.

It was a freak of shipping......My dealer tried to mark it sold and delivered and they couldn't because Ford showed it was still at MAP. Ford didn't update the thing as shipped for three days afterwards. Ford's generic method of tracking was a joke as they still said it was at the factory and it was in my garage at home. It's old news. The thread about it was posted on 11/16 when it happened. Apparently it was put on the truck because the rest of the vehicles on that truck were going to my dealership and they had one spot left. Not that it matters. After waiting 18 months it was built, shipped, delivered, and sold in 18 hours. I know it happened........everyone else's opinion about it is irrelevant.Sorry to burst your bubble but I doubt that. The tracking you guys use is very generic. DM me your VIN and I can look up the actual build and delivery time down to the minute.
It's a crazy system. My dealer says all that time that there is absolutely no rhyme or reason how it's being done. Expect nothing when it comes to Broncos. There are still people in the 11/15 build week who had Broncos built the same day as mine and they still have not received them. I was very fortunate.We had one of our broncos built on a Tuesday, at the dealer Wednesday!
The modules came on line late evening (second shift) on the 15th. My dealer was notified (email) it was loaded on the truck at 11:14am on the 16th and on the way. I live under 4 hours from MAP. The truck pulled into the dealers lot at 3:58pm. I signed the paperwork and drove it off the lot at 5:00pm. Less than 18 hours.......that was the time span for mine. The convoy tracker didn't update for a day, Ford didn't update the VIN for three days. When they did update...it was backdated to reflect the information I am sharing. There isn't one...not one.....tracker that is 100 percent real time accurate. I'm simply reporting what my experience was with my Bronco.Itās not opinion, Dealers generally donāt track via the proper methods
This is OPās details. It was not built and delivered that fast as Iāve stated. What everyone else sees is very generic dates and times.

YES!!! Precisely why I won't ever say or type it now that I finally got mine. Makes me cringe every time someone posts it. The process and wait was agonizing and I hope my brain can forget it, much like a woman's pain from childbirth!My built to delivery time was 8 days.
BTW - people on this forum should know (by now) that saying "It's worth the wait." is about most irritating thing someone could say to anyone who is has been waiting for over 18 months - and is still waiting with no information about when it will end.
It's the customer equivalent of saying "Stay pumped." - tone deaf.
But nice to know it was worth "your" wait, for you. For many, they would NEVER have gone through this process if they knew then what they know now.
