06/06/22 Build Week Group

Ford tracking and Ordertrack app both still say "in production", but Ford chat just told me its in transit at Junction Point (Indiana Harbor Belt Rr Co ), Location-Blue Island, IL. - looks like the tracking info is behind?

Well, now that (I think) most of us in the build week have gotten tear tags, mods, shipping info, etc. What's the first thing you're going to do with or to your Bronco?!

Bronco supposed to be here sometime early in July based on eta. But got a text from my dealer saying they had a $500 gift card from Amazon for me that I can come pick up. Basically apologizing for the wait and saying thanks for being patient. Pretty cool of them even if it makes me suspicious. Not sure if they are seeing a decline in sales with the economy going south and gas prices going crazy so they want people to hang on or they actually want to take care of people.

Personally wouldn't question unless it comes with an implied consent to ADM. That's quite a nice gift from them. My salesman is cool, but the best he has offered is showing my son his new tattoos tomorrow... yes, he's had time to get multiple new tattoos.

Yeah it's super nice of them either way, I was pretty surprised. First time I've dealt with them and assuming the buying process is smooth, would be following up a purchase there when my wife gets a new vehicle.

No mods still for me but have had a tear tag for a couple days. Still shows "in production". For now I'm chalking it up to the tracker for mine just not updating. Dealer informed me today he's had builds show in the trackers as "Order Confirmed" and they show up on a truck. Who knows at this point, but I'll still hound the Ford chat line.

I’m going to install the mabett back-of-seat protector in the cargo area to try and keep the waves of white German shepherd hair at bay. It won’t work.

I think I've lost my shit at this point. Below photo taken a couple hours ago in Kalamazoo, MI and posted on FB. In my mind that Cactus Grey Sasquatch is mine on the way to dealer . My conspiracy theory continues since my Badlands is showing on my dealers website now, as well as a Carbonized Grey Wildtrack... conveniently on the truck as well.

This is what I've been reduced to Ford...

Seems entirely plausible to me...

Awesome to hear did they email you or did you look it up and thanks

I got an email from Ford on 5/15 that I had a 6/6 build week. Before that my Dealer called to let me know that my Bronco was scheduled for a 5/30 build week and sent me my VIN and order number. I checked the backdoor, and sure enough I was scheduled for a 5/30 build week. Then a couple of bumps. 6/6, about the time I got Ford's email mentioned above. Then another for 6/13. Got my window sticker with a 6/16 blend a couple weeks ago.

No mods, but a tear tag? How can they calibrate the PCM without the mods being live? Somethings not right.

I'm in California. I know.. Don't judge. I'm actually a good person ! I'm figuring to get mine a month or so from now? Do you have a window sticker yet? Once you get your window sticker with the blend date your good. I haven't heard of anyone getting bumped after they have a blend date.

it’s all good would like to have some of that California weather so humid here 97 today felt like 109 I think you can cut the air with a knife no blend date but since my build week was this week I’m just hoping before they shut down in July I’m really wanting to drive it to bronco celebration west and seeing the Rockies and maybe hit Moab just have to wait and see

It was 92 where I live today. And it gets into the hundreds quite a bit. But if course we don't get the high humidity. Weather's been getting warmer the last few years. You should be getting a window sticker soon. Once you have that sticker with the blend date, your good! Keep checking the ordertrack app. It's worked well for me. Or get online with Ford Chat, or call the Bronco Support Team at 800-334-4375. I'll make it to a Bronco Super Celebration one of these years. Probably not this year though? Good luck Hope you get your new rig soon.
