"Our tracker" meaning the spreadsheet.

My Tracker is down as well and Palsapp still says null for me

No railcar # as it is supposed to be just by convoy. I think it's about 5 hours from MAP to the dealer where I'll take delivery. Palsapp.com has the VIN listed but it's just been "pending" status for about a month.

Did you get your new Bronco?

Oo my fault lol... I thought you were speaking about the "pizza" tracker

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.

Any day now!!

Nope... dates keep changing by 2-3 days at a time. Currently EDD is 2/17/22. Hopefully something happens this week!

Tracker updated to the 14th last week. It's down now, so can't see what it says. Going to call the dealership this afternoon for an update.

I wanted to give y’all a personal perspective that many on here have had to deal with. In early January I got sick and was diagnosed with Covid, no big deal, I’m vaxed, in good-ish shape and have had Covid once before about 4 mo ago. Well I was wrong. I was just released last night from the hospital, still on oxygen, dealing with Covid pneumonia.

I’m not sure why I wrote this to y’all, maybe it’s just to make sure you are carful, maybe it’s to make sure you tell the ppl that are important to you that they are truly important to you. I’m completely reevaluating my entire life, all material objects as well as my career. I’m now searching ways to enjoy the last few decades I have left. My advise is to be thankful for what you have while still remaining hopeful for what is in your future, IE finally getting your Bronco delivered.

My bronco has been sitting at my dealership for weeks and weeks and they have been very supportive. I hope to surprise my wife with having her delivered to our driveway next weekend. Y’all take care and keep up the posts, they have been a godsend to me.

How terrifying! I am glad you have been released from the hospital and I hope your recovery continues to head in the right direction.

We attended the Bronco Off-Roadeo Event this past weekend.

It was an amazing experience. As a long time off road enthusiast, I wasn't expecting much. I was pleasantly surprised though. The facility was top notch.
The instructors were awesome and very good at what they do.
We had plenty of outdoor classroom instruction then a full day of practical useful instruction.
I am truly impressed how much effort Ford has put into the technology of these trucks.

I can honestly say that every Bronco Owner needs to go to this class.

The day started at 9AM with orientation in the classroom as a meet and greet with your fellow classmates and instructors.
We broke into groups of 8 and each family had their own Bronco for the day.
We were then led outside to the ORX Classroom, which consisted of basic instruction on how to use the various off road options including the G.O.A.T. modes. This lasted for about an hour then we broke off to drive our designated Broncos each with a handheld radio for communication. We had a lead instructor and a tail gunner.
Every truck was inspected for safety and we were off on a 1.5 hour get used to driving off road easy mode trail.
We returned to base camp for a quick Bio Break as needed and to gather snack as needed.
Then it was back to the trails for another hour then back to base camp for Lunch.
After lunch we started having the real fun with 4 hours on the trails.
This included lots of technical rocks climbing and cliff diving.
We learned how to use the various options such as Off Road Cruise Control that let us dial in a speed to go up and down hills with different obstacles. We learned how to use the Trail Turn Assist and manual modes to allow for Engine Compression Braking.
The final hour of the off road portion of the day was a the quick track. This was a 2 mile dirt track with plenty of room for learning how to handle driving in Baja Mode. The track speed limit was 25 MPH and we were encouraged to follow said speed limit. This by far was the most fun part of the day for me, as this was in my wheel house of off road experience. I was very impressed on how well the Bronco did out there. I experimented with the different GOAT Modes and found my most fun setup was Baja Mode, 2H Traction Control Off. The throttle was very responsive and the drift was very predictable.

We returned to Base Camp for a nice Dinner at 6PM and shared our stories with our new friends.
Everyone exchanged pictures and contact information and spend money in the shop.
It was a great day.

Awesome recap Alvin, thank you. We are heading to Austin for the 3/18 Off-Roadeo, and we can't wait!! Any pointers will be greatly appreciated. Weather looked chilly. I'd better tell the wife to dress warm...

Oh my, I am 1) sorry to hear you got sick, and 2) extremely happy you are on the mend. And thanks, too, for the sobering reminder, especially on Valentines Day, to appreciate life and our loved ones.

My wife and I just got done exchanging gifts. After reading your note, i got up and gave her an extra xxoo.

I am pleased you will be getting your Bronco, and especially pleased that our chatter, stories, excitement, and angst maybe made your hospitalization a wee bit easier.

Take care...and send us LOTS of pics!!

Happy Valentines Day, Sean!!
