Haven't taken her home yet but my precious baby angel arrived. I went and saw her at the dealer after they closed and when we went to leave my wife turns and says "Kiss your baby goodnight" XD
We're all in!

Good morning 1/17'ers.

I would like to add to the T-shirt that @Firefight911 is giving to the last person to take delivery from our group.

I'm in the restaurant business, but for a side hustle, I'm the recipe developer for a canned cocktail company called Tip Top Proper Cocktails. Stiff classic cocktails with real spirits in tiny cans.

I figured whoever this person is in our group is definitely going to need a drink!

I will send an 8 pack of Margaritas and and 8 pack of Old Fashioned's.

I'm curious . It's been about a month since those before the quarter ends broncos were built/ shipped. How many of y'all have actually picked up your broncos and how many of y'all are still waiting ?
My Timeline once "Built"

Picked it up the next day on 04/20!

Well, my dealer calls me out of the blue yesterday. This is unusual as I haven't received too many communications from them the last 7 months. The person calling is their IT, sales and Custom order manager. He starts the conversation with, I wanted to let you know, I got very concerned with your order due to its delay in coming and that we have received quite a few Broncos built AFTER yours that have been received and sold. Some of these we ordered after yours also. He then told me he had called a higher level person he knows personally at Ford, and got the reason. So you can take this with a grain of salt, "my dealer said" or whatever, but here's what he told me and what he truly believes what Ford is doing. Ford has run out of many modules, and parts but continues to produce the vehicles and parks them keeping the lines open for full production regardless of what parts are missing. Any spare parts from the week are then used to finish sitting vehicles, which means if you're missing three modules, and they have spares for two of them that week you still sit until you get picked again and your missing module is available as a spare from that weeks production. This would make sense to the randomness and the fact so many vehicles sit while others get shipped from whatever build week you're from. Just thought some of you would like to know, that its Ford who decided they would keep production numbers up for shareholders, while we get the short end of the stick as customers. Just food for thought.

It must be nice! I have to say when I see later builds that have been delivered, it stings a bit. Congrats on not being built week 1/17.

That's awesome; I'll be ordering a variety pack! Excellent packaging, too, our design firm works with over two dozen breweries on can design, and I love the 100 ML cans!

I'll follow your lead and throw in a Castle & Key rye bottle. Newer distillery here in Woodford Coutny.

Was expecting my order to arrive at the dealership by 4/29, so I called again, to find out now the 4door big bend soft top is scheduled to SHIP between May 8 and May 14. I was told there was shipment delays with their convoy services. Sad news...

Exactly what happened to several of us in Ohio that were supposed to receive delivery by 4/29.

Moved us all out to 5/8-5/14 as well.

this makes a tremendous amount of sense to me- it's why one or two of us get built a week- sadly at this rate we have a long wait ahead of us

So I ha e call CS every day this week at the beginning of the week and late last week my Edd was 23-29 called today and it was pushed to the 25-1. What gives I’m getting tired of being strung along by Fords lack of hitting there target delivery dates. This shouldn’t be that hard. Not to mention my dealer gets a new Bronco on the car hauler almost everyday not one of them has been mine

Well I'm sorry that mine was picked for a later build date of 01/21 but I also was initially supposed to be built the week of 12/20 and was a 2nd day reservation holder so just because it started to be built later doesn't mean I haven't been waiting an equally long time. Now I have no idea about your timeline but I know from what I've seen that Ford really doesn't have a good system or order for who they pick to be built. Almost everyone on this website has had to deal with extremely long wait times. Again I'm sorry that you're still waiting on yours, but it's also not fair to knock someone down that's also waited a long time and finally got theirs in. Hope you get yours soon.
