My 2-Door Black Diamond is home!

[VoltageDrop]

As someone who had a 7/14 blend and a 2-door, this literally made tears of joy roll down my cheeks.

As someone with a 6/30 blend 2-door, I've had different tears running down my cheeks for a couple weeks now and I hate you.

Sweet rig, congrats!

The irony of wishing my truck wasn't built so early so I could get it sooner.

Enjoy!

Good for you. Looks great.

Congrats on getting yours. Absolutely love the Black Steelies and Cactus Grey combo!

 

[TheRealJyushi]

Ahh! Close to my build! Kinda. Enjoy it. Cant wait for mine.

Same...only difference with mine is 2.3L/Auto and no Roof Rack.

Looks dope. I basically have the same build down to the roof rack and tow package, except I’m a manual Carbonized Gray. There is something about the Black Diamond with the steelies that just feels so unassumingly cool. Hope to get mine soon.

Oh jeez. 7/14 blend with the same specs except white and no roof rack. You’re giving me hope.

I love this thread, it made me realize the cactus LITERALLY changes colors in each pic…!!

congrats... hope you enjoy it. the 32 inch tires look good on there... unless you are doing some serious off roading, you should be good

Got my “built” email about 30 minutes after I got off the phone with my dealer telling me it had arrived lol. I was surprised how fast it arrived after the blend date

Did your pizza tracker update past “in production”?

Why did it take 3 days to take delivery at your dealer?

The wait was worth it!
Picked up my 2 door/2.7/Mid BD today from the dealer. First impressions from a quick inspection and the drive home:

• MIC top looks good! I will look at it closer tomorrow and see if I can find any imperfections, but overall it looks about how I would expect from molded plastic.
• Cactus Gray looks great as always
• I took the roof panels out for the ride home and they came out pretty easily even with the roof rails on.
• The 32” Grabbers and the steelies look better in person, at least on the 2 door. I was thinking of upgrading to bigger tires, but I think that will get kicked down the road at least for a little while.
• Averaged 21.1 mpg on my 80 mile drive home, switching between Eco and Sport mode and varying my RPM.
• 8 inch screen is plenty big enough for my liking
• I will get better pictures (including interior) tomorrow to add!

Timeline:
7/13/20 reservation (11pm ET)
2/22/21 order
5/27/21 scheduled for production w/o 7/12
6/26/21 received email “in production”
7/12/21 BLEND
7/13/21 built
7/14/21 shipped
7/16/21 arrived at dealer (Thayer Ford in Bowling Green, OH)
7/19/21 sitting in my driveway

This is my build date and build. I wonder why mine is sitting in limbo…

Even crazier is I reserved and ordered mine the exact same days, same production schedule email dates, and same built date. I guess traveling by rail is the main issue.
