Only had my rig for a few days but has already been through a 24 hour downpour, followed by a freeze into snow, now wind gusts up to 55mph and so far the MIC top is holding up.

also went through a high pressure wash, no leaks.

Only complaint is the running boards don’t stick out enough, they aren’t very usable in the winter with the ice and big boots. My wife isn’t pleased with that as she doesn’t love getting into it.

What a day of ownership looks like over here lol.

If this is true, it also suggests that they are dedicating very little manpower to the effort.

If a few thousand means ~5000 cars, in 90 days. That's about 50 cars per day.

Of course, if they're only working 1 shift, during normal business hours maybe that's something like 100 per shift/12 per hour. Suggests about half-dozen man crew.

Day 584: I somehow accidentally subscribed to the 1/31 group…really wish I hadn’t. I was originally in that group and got bumped to the tail end of the 1/24s to a 1/28 blend and am one of the few 1/28s that got skipped when others around me got built/shipped statuses. I think I now have to wait until the tail end since they are working on first ones in from previous weeks….

That's gotta be frustrating as hell.

The 1/3 group is already having some mechanical issues with their Broncos. More things to add to my list of ‘do I even want this car anymore?’

I do want it but am really nervous about it sitting on ice mountain for three months and having some issues when it finally comes

This morning I’m just visiting things I have for my bronco. My brother rocks. He works for a company that ordered a 3D printer and his job is to learn it to machine parts and teach others. The bronco logo was his “professional development.“ Second one coming soon! Stickerfab tail light sticker. Super excited. I have door sill protectors and rear tail gait protector (also from stickerfab) that I am going to put the cyber orange logo over. Shout out to @StickerFab. Can’t write a review because the order beat my bronco here. But everything looks amazing.

i also follow this YouTuber called Sarah N Tune. She’s a car reviewer but she reserved and actually got her bronco black diamond and has been doing things like paint protecting and installing aftermarket stuff. I am going to order the detail stuff she used I think. Since I don’t have my bronco I keep rewatching her episodes where she’s enjoying hers and living vicariously. Happy saturday all. Wishing Everyone changed pizza trackers!
