I'm not a customer but based on his post and the recent advertising I've seen when watching the NFL Playoffs which suggests they have an app you can download and use to stream their content, I'd take a look at the App Store.
i have their app on my PHONE
Almost seemed like he meant an app on the ford system

Here's one for you. My wife ordered a Taycan over the weekend and this is their tracking experience. It certainly "looks" better with a countdown, the seemingly exact track the vehicle will take, and updated current location (yet to be built with an EDD of 66 days).

Hell of a lot more pleasant to look at than having to chase 6 mismatched tracking sites. We'll see how it actually goes.

I really like your taste in vehicles! Taycan is my next dream car!

I'm cheap and I've never ran anything over 87 in car or truck I've ever owned in 30 years of driving, and I don't plan on starting today. Now if 93 was a buck fifty a gallon sure. I just realized my wife and kids are getting old after I typed that I've been driving 30 years.
I took my daughter for a driving lesson this past weekend and almost passed out when I heard myself say would you just listen to me, I have been driving for 32 years. I am waaayyyyy too young to be driving for that long. How did that happen????

I've noticed every one else in purgatory has had their EDD pushed back at least once. Mine has somehow not changed. Is it safer to think that my tracker is completely busted or does anyone think I have any chance of actually seeing my bronco around my EDD of 2/14.

12/23: Showed in production
1/8: Blend date on window sticker
1/10: Dealer said "in transit" (whatever that means)
1/11: In production date showed up on tracker (nothing has changed since)
No built date
No ship date
No emails
When was the last time you asked your dealer to look up your status in his Vehicle Visibility system? If he sees, "in transit", you may very well be on a rail some where.

How much is gas where you live? Round here it's $3.15-$3.25 a gallon.
My current car is an Evolution it takes 93 exclusively... 2 days ago it was $3.85, that car only has a 12.1 gal tank though... Bronco will be a different story....

I’m averaging 16.9 MPGs with 93 octane and 904 miles so far. Running like a champ.

I’m hunting rattles because it drives me nuts with B&O and driving around bumpy stuff. Found an annoying rattle underneath the rear seat with some wire/plug connectors. I wrapped in a little dynamat and much better. Need to de-rattle the plastic in the rear cargo area in a similar manner.

Plan to self adjust my windows so they open smoother this weekend. The off-rodeo Bronco’s opened much smoother than mine. I asked the guides but they didn’t “know” anything about that stuff.
I am averaging 18.8 after putting 300 miles on it. 2.7.

I’m pretty sure the manual says 87 or higher.
I just saw a screen shot of the manual posted yesterday that said 91 and above is recommended/preferred but 87+ is still safe to use. Now I have to find that.

Edit, this is what the manual recommends.

Just installed the Rocker Armor Trail Armor today! Easy install. Looks so much better.

My two cents regarding octane.
I bought my 2014 Taurus SHO 3.5 L EcoBoost (not so much on the Eco side but great on the boost side) and from day one I have ran premium in it. I did try running low grade a few times and did notice a difference in performance:) so never did it again. Also premium seems to burn better and cleaner when compare to the lower grades which to me means a cleaner engine internally (that could be old thinking because I am old).
It really all depends on your usage and in some cases your budget. We now also have a 2021 Mustang Mach E in our garage which will free up some money in the gas budget for sure :) so for me it goes back to performance.

I'm shipped and have estimated delivery on the 16th. I don't have rail car number, so don't know current status. Another going to the same dealership with an estimate of the 7th was delivered on the 4th.
Oh, how exciting!!! Any day now! Let us know when you get it...and dont forget to use the Owners Checklist for Delivery...link on page 1, post 1.
