Day #555 since my day 2 reservation ended with this beautiful beast finally parked in his new home. He barely fits in our garage. If we’re going with names, we’re calling him Brutus, short for Brutus “the Bronco” Beefcake.
I figured out on Saturday that it was on the same train as @Alvin Olson by following his mapping and looking at the spreadsheet. With his help, I was able to learn when it got dropped off in KC, which was that same Saturday night. On Monday afternoon I checked PalsApp and it showed it had just been delivered to my dealer. It was in PDI on Tuesday and my wife and I were finally able to pick it up from the dealer tonight.
Everything went smooth for the most part. I did have to bring up the price protection with my dealer who honestly wasn’t aware of it or how it worked but came right back with a $975 voucher from Ford after checking with his manager. He called it a “direct offer” I believe and said it was tied to my name. It was his first ‘22 Bronco sale so he thanked me for giving him a heads up about the price protection.
I feel for all of you in purgatory. Keep up your hope. The last few days seemed the longest part of the wait yet, as I realized how close it finally was but yet still not quite within my grasp. As torturous as this whole experience has been, it’s been great to move through it as a group, and all of it builds up to a pretty incredible release of excitement when you finally get to take the reins.

UPDATE- my rig was “placed in industry” at 3:38am in twin oaks, PA.
Anyone know what this means? Is it off the train and on a convoy? Something ominous? I thought I remember someone mentioning but I can’t find it

Well… here’s hoping I guess! To this point I’ve been stuck in “production “ since 01/06… logged in this morning and it said “invalid VIN”. In Ford speak, maybe that means some kind of progress!Still not updated. I have shown Built since the 10th
my huge hope is that my squatch Works better than their tracking and/or production processes
on another note, here again, i see the rendering of the green and it is very questionable… then seeing live shots of it… what an awesome color!!! Beautiful ride my friend!!! Enjoy the blessings!!!
I have a couple of questions….I don’t believe the Base comes with window tint, does anyone know? If not, has anyone just had their dealer apply it before pick-up? Also, I just have the “baby tires” and I know I want at least 33” if not bigger, would it be worth it to have my dealer throw those on and just include in purchase price so I just have them? Or does anyone know a place to look to see if people are selling their wheels and tires from the OBX? I wouldn’t mind throwing those on my baby.Or maybe I just run on the standard tires for awhile and upgrade the rims and tires at a later date. I am just trying to figure out the best way to go about this.

Finally the Baby has left the hospital -- the long ride home has begun -- from one wait to another hahahaha
Pr0xy I think was the first to mention it.
If you like the OBX tires/wheels, they should be easy to find for sale as people start receiving them. Lots of people take them right off for upgrades. They look a lot better in person than pics too.
So far I've seen a set of 5 for 600$ which is really good considering it's 5 brand new tires and wheels. So I guess it just depends on what you want and how much you want to spend.

Morning Campers..... I a woke with a large 
this going, I have updated the spreadsheet. Going to be a long work day for sure today. Still doesn't seem real, and I find myself wondering what I will obsess over now.

Right? I only registered it because I am keeping tabs on what people sell them for if I decide to swap mine out... but isn't really worth it.
