Looks great! Like the hood vinyl, where did you get that?
Now let the anxiety over soaring gas prices begin!

And you must have the cleanest garage I've ever seen

Thanks. I redid the windows in the garage 2 summers ago and put new doors in. When i did the windows i finished the wall with sheetrock, tape and mud then did all the pine trim to match the back wall. Repainted everything a new coat of white and put up 6 new LED panel lights. i want to tear up the old carpet crap the previous owners put down. then redo the steps to match the back wall as well. Its pretty tight in the garage now with my wifes Explorer and the Bronco.

Shes home for good. One thing I will say, I'm not sure why people rag on the B&O system. I think it's pretty good. The highs could be a little cleaner but I'm using ultra high quality files from Amazon music and I think it's great

Looking good

My shipped email from Ford arrived on 5/9. Delivery estimate was 5/22-5/28. I was on a business trip last week. I received a call from the dealer that my Bronco arrived on Thursday 5/19. I didn't get back until Saturday. They are closed on Sunday. I was a little worried that it wouldn't be there by Monday.

Picked it up this morning. Shout out to Porter Ford in Newark DE. No bs, super easy transaction. Drove about 25 miles today with the front panels off. Awesome! I had to put them back on because my garage is full of a motorcycle and junk and I forgot to take a pic with them off. I'm getting new tires put on tomorrow and I have some graphics coming soon. Will post another pic later in the week.

New tires, stripes, removed badging. Happy with how it came out.

Well after a full 29 days sitting at a rail yard i can say MY BRONCO IS FINALLY HERE! arrived at the dealership this afternoon. I can take delivery tomorrow early afternoon unless something comes up in PDI. I went and snapped some pics and hopped inside it quick. 6.3 miles on it I will say this. The HPR is everything i hoped it would be. Im so happy i picked it. I also never got to see the MGV interiors before i ordered and so glad i picked it as well. I took tomorrow afternoon off work and all day friday. I have a whole pile of things to do to it before saturday. They are doing a car show at the dealership i got it from and he wants it up front and center at the show

CONGRATS! All the stress will melt away now. Enjoy! Looks great!

Got the call that my Bronco is ready to be picked up ahead of schedule. Looks like it spent less than 24 hours at the railyard

Benefit of a big volume dealer I guess

Flaps are definitely needed with the Sas wheels. Man do they like to throw rocks!

I can only imagine what the Sas wheels do, but it can’t be good. Got mine off road for the first time last weekend and gravel was flying everywhere with my non-sas. I ordered flaps as soon as we got back after finding a paint chip.

and I'd hate to be following one of these unflapped broncos.

True. I don’t love the look, but thought they were necessary. So it almost crept into my mind to do front only, but thought better of being a jerk. Lol

The Rok Blokz aren’t the best looking, but they’re relatively easy to remove for those times where they would be in the way

And just like that, my Bronco has arrived ...... at the rail yard! @robo it took the same rail path as yours- thanks again for sharing your notes. If I've learned anything the last couple of weeks, it's to expect somewhere between 1-2 weeks before delivery to the dealership. Not that I won't call my dealership tomorrow morning to point out that the Bronco is in the rail yard waiting to be picked up.

Any word from your dealer yet? Mine was 10 days from being released at the railyard, (not necessarily the date of arrival) to delivery at dealership.
Should be real soon in any case!!
