Thank you!

You are "On Hold", I don't know why and the AEM links are acting funky right now. I will see what I can find out.

Also, you are not going by rail, you are going by CONVOY. No rail car for you!

Thank you for the quick look and response! Sorry, didn't realize it was convoy because I can no longer get the Ford look up tool to even work. Original build date was 08/23, then 08/30, then 09/06 and no updates since. My dealer has only said that it shows as "pending" but no other info.

Says so right on your window sticker... attached below, if you don't have it. Also ETIS is down and I can't see anything there or on the trackers... something is up with Ford.

dealer couldn’t look up rail

This is great! Are you able to pull up info after it’s been rolled off the rail car and is “sitting at the TDSI” like I’ve been told?

For the first time, my dealer surprised me yesterday and actually gave me the rail car number. Last checked location was Toledo.

That is for you to decide. It's not hard to get the VIN number for any particular vehicle. Your VIN number is publicly displayed everywhere you go on your vehicle... anytime you park, your VIN number is exposed to anyone who wants it. Hell, given the advancements in Satellite technology, I would be surprised if the damn things can't be read from orbit at this point.

Now, this is not supposed to be the primary way to get your rail car, this is a last resort when your dealer won't help you out. I even provide a number of links up front for people to do their own digging in the first post.

Now regarding VIN numbers:

ALL 2021 Bronco VINs start with either 1FMDE5 or 1FMEE5 (2 doors are always 1FMDE5)
So that takes care the first 6 locations
The 7th location is A, B, C, D, E, or F.
The 8th location is P or H.
The 9th location is 0 - 9 or X.
The 10th-12th locations are MLA or MLB
The last 5 locations are 00000-99999 (with large blocks of numbers excluded)
All two door FE's start with 2XXXX (and near as I can tell less than 1000 were built, so really 20XXX)
All four door FE's start with 4XXXX with 43250 near the highest I have seen.
Almost all production Bronco numbers start with MLA6XXXX-MLA9XXXX or MLB0XXXX.

So really, figuring out a VIN, not that hard. You are at best hiding 5 digits as a unique identifier, potentially a lot less, especially if I know your blend date.

32504dr+10002dr=4250FE<7000FE planned (after reservation system debacle). Someone at Ford should consider why there were so many dropouts

Trying to figure out everything, cause I got a new baby in the NICU, she decided that she wanted to come before her delivery date and the Bronco, haha. Thankfully she is doing well. Thanks ahead of time for the info.

They’re not done building them yet.

Probably not building 2750 in the next 6 weeks... it will be interesting to see what the final numbers are
