🛠 3/14/22 Build Week Group

[Prefer.A.Jimny]

This group has gone really quiet since most people have received their Bronco's. How many people are on chip hold like me?

I’m still here my bud. I have shipped according to tracker. My detailed journey with Ford is in my signature. I was a chip hold for a month and a half.

On chip hold. Just quiet because I've got nothing positive to say.


In other news I've been hammering miles on my 94 f150, coincidentally also has vinyl flooring. Just upgraded to factory cupholder which is a life saver

That truck is pretty dang strait for being from Michigan and almost 30 years old. its either been in the garage for 6 months a year or it came from the south??? Which one?

Kinda a little of both. I went through it in 2012 and replaced hood fenders and bed with rust free versions and had it sprayed. Admittedly the good looking picture is from soon after the paint job, but it is holding up very well. I only did a few winters after that and since then it's almost always in storage. I started daily driving it again after my dd was totalled and I decided (6 mos ago....) To order and wait on a bronco.

Below is before and during my mini resto

Got it with 130k, I have somewhere near 222 now. Did a trans at 175 and some gaskets and a radiator around 210. Great truck. Wind noise like you can't believe.

I'm fully built since 3/20 and still waiting for convoy shipping from the plant to IL.

I was built 3/15. No chip hold but waiting on convoy now for about 2 months.

@Blown331 I'm still here too. Built 3/13, shipped to Wentzville MO., arrived at train yard close to Laura Ford (relatively). I have been waiting for it to be convoyed from the train yard to Laura Ford since 3/26. My date just keeps getting pushed back. All, my dealer says is they have 40-60 trucks in the train yard and don't have enough drivers to get them to the dealership. The 20 mos. wait was hard but not nearly as difficult as waiting day to day for 7 weeks or whatever the hell it is now. Good luck to all of those still waiting. I am almost done teaching for the school year and if I get it before my last day of school, all will be forgiven, lol. (I think)

If you go and take it from thr train yard and leave a check in it's place is it still theft?

Still here. Just waiting for all of the 3/14 Broncos to get home. I feel for you still waiting. Haven’t posted much, because I feel bad when there’s so many of you still waiting.

For those that have picked there Broncos up already, how long did it take for you to get your rewards points?

It took a full 7 to 9 days before I had mine. But then again I had my Bronco for ~3 days before it updated in the trackers as shipped. LOL.

Still on chip hold here. Worst part is that I can literally drive to MAP in 10 minutes, but I have to pay $1500 for it to be taken to a dealership. I am still showing "In Production" on the tracker, so no idea when that will change... Stinks with the good weather finally arriving here in Michigan.

Same here man! I was bumped to 3/21 and am in the same chip hold boat. Every nice day is killing me!

 

[BroncoRick]

Frankly, I no longer believe my convoy shipping hold is the accurate status anymore. Have a feeling it is actually on chip hold or on hold for some other part.

Convoy shipping hold = we are holding your shipping because it's waiting on parts

For those of you waiting on convoy shipping, I knew there were some delays due to shortage of truck drivers, but didn't realize it was to the extent I'm reading here. For those of you waiting, I was on the 2/7 build group and I was the very last person to receive my vehicle so I completely empathize.

That's why I started coming to this forum; there wasn't anyone left in mine. For what it's worth, this is a much more chatty group than the 2/7 group. I was there waiting for my vehicle only a few weeks ago. It's mixed emotions every time someone posts they've received their vehicle. On one hand you're happy for them and on the other you're cursing b/c you haven't gotten yours. All I can say is hang in there and stay on this forum. I found it very helpful. That is part of the reason I still frequently come to this page. Paying forward for those that answered my questions and helped me through the frustration.
