🛠 1/3/22 Build Week Group

[Alvin Olson]

I've found that the rail tracking is a little misleading. I have an estimated delivery of 2/11-2/17. I called CSX on 2/1 and was surprised to hear that it had been delivered to San Diego (my town). I called the dealer who said they don't have my Bronco yet. I've creeped around the dealer including the back lot multiple times to ensure it's really not there. I checked CSX a couple times since and now it's delivered in Chicago. I'm guessing that my Bronco is still sitting at MAP and hasn't even gotten on rail yet.

My daughter caught me off guard and told pics of me creeping around the dealership...lol

Dude, you are my Hero.
love the enthusiasm

Welcome to snow mountain fellow purgatory-ites....

Beautiful view of the actual mountain. Where do we send $$ to bail you out for flying your drone over it? (Someone should actually ski down it!)

I don't know if I believe that. Mine updated while stuck in production to 2/19, shipped 1/31, and has held that date since.

Yeah, it seems like there are exceptions so it's difficult to figure out what the dates really mean. My original EDD was 1/31 and I was told mine should ship by 1/31 which it did not. Now it's 2/10 and it won't be delivered to AZ by then.

So, I keep looking at my tracker and it says “estimated delivery 2/10/22”. My blend date was 1/6/22 and it looks like my window sticker was last updated 2/2/22. I have not received any shipping notice. I am thinking this is not accurate but i do have a ramp number on the window sticker. Could anyone shed any light of this thought? Thanks for your help. I have reached out to the dealer but have not heard back from them.

Few people, if any, got a shipping notice. Ask your dealer for your rail car number and start calling the automated train trackers. It's a sometimes tedious, sometimes nerve-wracking vigil.

Pizza tracker doesn't load anymore. It must have deleted me. But this one is still in la-la land, lol.

I saw in another thread that if you are in production, the estimated delivery date is actually the date that it is expected to be built/ shipped, not the date it will be delivered. Once the Bronco is shipped, the date will change. My EDD is 2/10 but with MAP closed I don't expect it to ship by then.

I saw that too but my dealer told me mine would be released mid February and my estimated date is 3/6 now. So that would make sense if it’s released by then it would take around 2 to 3 weeks to get to me. So maybe that’s true about edd being your actual build date but idk at this point lol

My update is coming from Fort Lauderdale, FL and not frozen MN. Looks like my baby spent two days in Blue Island and so far 24 hours in the Norpaul yard. At this point movement is movement. My neighbors are picking up the parts from my front porch so they don't freeze while we are away. I hope it gets to the dealer before we get back so they can add a few things I ordered through them done before pickup day.

My delivery date is now 2/11...just keeps on being pushed.

My delivery still says 2/10. My dealer said their ford rep only told them some were being held back for quality control but they didn’t know the vins so they couldn’t confirm it was mine or not. What a joke Ford is right now. There is no reason that they shouldn’t be able to tell you exactly what is going on with a car when your dealer is calling with the vin. Anyways just scheduled my car inspection since I highly doubt this will arrive before my registration expires.

Progress is progress.. this rail tracking is stressful.

I have spent the better part of the morning visiting a couple of local print shops to get more information on what material would be best for the sill plates. Both of them told me the same thing, that what I was using is the best for the application due to durability and price point. They said the next thing to use would be a carbon fiber vinyl as well. I did learn something while I was out doing it this morning. I explained to them that I was looking for thicker material to use. They explained to me that the ticker the material the cheaper the product is, which blew my mind. I would have thought it would have been opposite of that. Anyway all that to say this, I am going to offer the current material I use for outdoor decals (ie car decals) and carbon fiber. Give me a couple of days and I will put them on my site. These will be a little more expensive due to the fact that it will take more time for me to cut them and "weed" them, meaning pull the cut part of the design out. And they will be a little larger then some of the others just to offer maximum coverage. I am also going to offer other designs as well. Thanks Campers.....

Estimated delivery went from 1/22 to 2/01 to 2/11 to 3/01. Now updated to 3/03. *sigh*

I'm beginning to think they are setting these up to be Thursday deliveries, I've noticed with mine as well as a few on here that say their dates update a few days ahead, they all update to the next thursday.....mine went from 2/8 (tues) to 2/10 (thurs) yours went from 3/1 (tues) to 3/3 (thurs) there may be a scheduling process underway.... just a theory

Great, thank you. I will look into that!

One more question. My window sticker says, “ramp one- and has a code of RF35”. Does that mean anything? Thanks again!
