Just saw a couple people in the ice mountain thread went from EDD of February to May. Anyone in our group suffer the same fate?

Not yet lol

Going to touch base with dealer tomorrow. Yesterday he told me he was working on getting approval from Ford to use their own truck to go pick up their cars down there. He said he should have it in a couple days but we'll see!

Sounds like the ramp/united road is being slow to do their delivery so he's not happy about it either, he has 6 cars sitting waiting.

I think my dealer has been doing that too

Only a week late.

Please post away!!!! I may be in purgatory but I still want to hear everyone’s adventures.

Agreed! It is nice to see pics and read the reviews and updates. We can live vicariously through you all while we wait. I think the wait would be harder if we didn't have this group. You all are keeping the excitement real Keep posting updates, pics, and reviews!

For those deep into the stats keeping, my baby picture also arrived. A week after delivery.

it's not too bad right now. We are sitting at 34 degrees. My kid's don't even wear coats in this temp (teens and their hoodies lol). Detroit has a great mixture of characters lol

I legitimately love Detroit. In the before times we travelled there for a concert and were just amazed at how nice everyone was when they found out we weren't from Detroit.

wow !!!
So exciting !!!
When will yall be picking it up ?

Maybe Tonight, if not tomorrow. My husband is flying today so of course it's a late night for him, so it depends on when he gets home. Too bad he cant just land the apache over there to sign a few papers with me

It feels dumb to be sad about it, given that I know my Bronco's here and I'll have him soon... But it still hurts to miss put on a baby pic. The journey has been a fun part of this build.

Side note, @Panmort I will be stealing your baby pic to put on my desk and "oooh & ahhh" at since we have practically the exact same build

Just pretend they got them mixed up

For those of you who have leather, how do you like it? Is it soft? Are you happy with it? I was debating between the leather and marine-grade vinyl. I loved the vegan leather in our Tesla because of how soft yet durable it was. I ended up going with leather in the Bronco.

That pic wasn't taken in Florida?

Haha! I knew it would be confusing.

Got the same e-mail. Felt bad at first, but there were enough other baby pix of 2-dr EG's that I did get to see the effect of the bright lights.

Still in Rail Yard Limbo this morning, but another guy on this Forum local to us (tho different dealer, different rail yard) said his was delivered by neither North Amer (palsapp) or United--some 3rd co. who's name he didn't have--so who knows.

I want to both e-mail @Cat 's OCD ahead of time and bring it with us, but timing might be off for the former. (Tho ... I expect they will tell us that "Steamboat" arrived and they need a day to spiff him up, so that will give us a chance to e- OCD.)

Meantime, gathering data on about 10 local detailers who responded to us wrt ceramic coating (vs. Glare--anyone heard of that?)

That awkward moment when you don’t have your Bronco but Ford thinks you do

I'll take, "awkward", over uncertainty any day.
