🛠 3/14/22 Build Week Group

@Beach_Bum didn’t get his either Still praying it shows up someday

What do you mean? I sent you a photo on IG.

Edit: That was the 314'er decal. Yeah, I never received the baby picture on the line. Not expecting it either. I found a facsimile of the same build from another. But what is more important to me is getting one with Ashley's branding on the line in the photo. I've noticed her style still remains from later build weeks.

Same Still holding out hope but I know our chances shrink more and more daily…

Yea I kinda want to make something with the window sticker, the "rip-off" sticker the dealer had ready in case I backed out, and the new born photo

The day we got ours from the dealer I remember frantically looking for our window sticker when we took her home and thankfully I found it nicely folded in our glove box so I atleast have that but I’d still love my assembly line pic with Ashley’s brandings that @Beach_Bum mentioned I was kinda hoping the link to everyone’s picture just had your VIN# in it and if you swapped it out you’d see others pictures but I don’t think that’s the case

Great news, hopefully this means that they are starting to work through our "in production" group.

Getting it Muddy! So update on my price protection. I got cut a check for $1395 instead of $1500. Also means I paid taxes on $1500 twice, once when I bought the car and again when they gave me the check.... so I paid $205 more than I should have. Thankfully the salesman I dealt with was helpful and instead of giving me the taxes back, he gave me $550 dollars in Ford Accessories. Works for me!

Glad to see some people are making progress with the price protection... I got a whopping $4 back so far from mine, we'll see how that plays out.

Great to see more Broncos getting to their owners. I recently just hit 5000 miles and thought I would share my thoughts and observations. Mine has been used as a daily driver, towed a 3k lb load a few miles and an 800lb load 500 miles. I’ve also taken a weekend overland/camping off road trip as well. I feel like I’ve fit quite a bit into those first 5k miles.
Gas Mileage-even with the towing (which kills MPG; even with an empty trailer) and the off roading I’m at 18.3 via the computer. Probably closer to 17.5 in reality, but I’m happy. I primarily drive in ECO and drive normal. If you keep your foot out of it it’ll do ok. I’ve had several long trips of 20+ mpgs. This is with SAS and 2.7L.
This is probably the most comfortable car I’ve driven. My experience isn’t broad by any stretch, but man I like sitting in it.
Towing-it’s done well with what I’ve asked it to do. Mileage tanks, but that’s to be expected. No issues here.
Off Road-I’ve thrown some light mud, dunes, rock crawling and general trail driving at it and it just eats it up everything. It feels at home off pavement.
About the only complaint I have is the interior plastics, particularly the cargo area. It scratches really easily. The weekend camping trip resulted in several noticeable scratches. That was disappointing. If someone figures out how to make replacement panels that don’t scratch and are easily installed there’s money to be made.
Hope you all are enjoying your rides and if you don’t have it it gets here soon.

How long did it take from purchase to them cutting the check?

How long did it take from purchase to them cutting the check?

about 45 days, I suspect they had it earlier since they sent it to me after I emailed about it.

Are people from this week that have been on a chip hold getting moved up and getting build emails? I have seen a lot of FB posts of the January holds getting delivered and many had new ETAs of late June/July and they seemed to have gotten them sooner! So happy those January people are getting them. I’ve been waiting since March 17th, my eta was pushed each week due to chip hold and then they pushed it to July 20th! I did the ford chat today and my new ETA was this week, I know I won’t get it this week but was surprised it was changed to a month sooner. Anyone else get pushed sooner than a JULY eta? I am hoping I get the built email soon or my dealership just calls and says they have it lol

That’s great! Seems like they are finally getting the ones on hold out and moving along!

 

[Havoc1]

So I'm not sure how many of you have seen this, but for those still waiting for a built/shipped status, you may be waiting for more than just a chip....
