Yup - mine has been waiting "last mile" delivery from the depot to the dealership (about 30 miles?).
I was curious and logged in to the tracker to see if it also got an update since the delivery date was originally between 4/5 - 4/11.

That wasn't it off Beltway 8 and Telephone Road?

Anyone who has been stuck in "Awaiting Shipment", see any movement?
Listen and understand. @mpmcgaughey is out there. He can't be bargained with. He can't be reasoned with. He doesn't feel pity or remorse or fear. And he absolutely will not stop—ever—until he is driving that Bronco off of the lot.
Nada, but a couple people who have been in limbo this whole time and who I believe rolled down the line two days before me got a shipped notification and baby pic yesterday afternoon. You rolled down the line one day ahead of me, so hopefully you get good news this afternoon and I do tomorrow.

The good thing is that our dealer is on my way home so whats the hurt doing a drive by two or three times a day
That is good to hear. Let's hope that is the case!
On the other hand... there is this post in this thread, indicating that the problem is that the convoy trucks aren't loading cars right now because the fuel prices would lead them to lose money on the trip... https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/new-chip-shortage.41598/post-1345284
Hey that's a problem for future me to worry about. I just want mine off of the lot at MAP and on a train and then we'll go from there.That is good to hear. Let's hope that is the case!

As much as I love good gossip and speculation - it's just that speculation.That is good to hear. Let's hope that is the case!

I'm led to believe that final-mile transit of our vehicles is really luck of the draw and where the Broncos are placed in line with other vehicles at the depot. First in, last out?
Either way, I don't attribute malice to what is simply lack of (good) process, shortage of drivers, pick any COVID or non-COVID related thing.

That may be true for convoy after rail transport, but I can absolutely believe this story for convoy-only deliveries in the midwest (situation like mine). In those cases you are talking about many hundreds of truck miles transport, and they were probably already operating on very thin margin.As much as I love good gossip and speculation - it's just that speculation.

@Jmiller94 and @broncomama were in the exact same rail car mine was in and they already have theirs and I’m still waiting on mineAs much as I love good gossip and speculation - it's just that speculation.

Bronco ETA between April 17th and the 23rd, according to dealer and Ford chat. All trackers still say "in production". No emails or baby pic. I'm not tracking trains, so I hope this delivery estimate holds and it doesn't get pushed. This group has been amazing and extremely helpful. Hope we are all rolling with the top off soon!
