11/28/2022 Build Week

[Rick Astley]

Just got my 'shipped' notification. Wonder how long it will take to get to Portland Oregon?

It was built 11/30

Any update on this?

We share build date. Mine "shipped" in early December but actually got loaded onto a rail car 1/4. Same day they changed delivery expectation out to 1/24. I need to track the rail car again but I doubt it's actually moved yet.

Waiting and being without a car, and no viable alternatives sounds horrible, on top of that, any information that we do get regarding our orders is typically woefully unreliable. It just makes for a miserable experience.
I have also been close to going a different direction, and (not to be overly dramatic) several of the members here on this thread reached out and kept up my morale during the process. And I thank them.

I hope its all worth it. The overwhelming consensus is that these are great trucks. Hopefully Monday afternoon I’ll be able to confirm it.
In the mean time hang in there.

Right there with you on the frustration level.

11/14 initial build week, bumped to 11/28 with 12/12 delivery
12/1 scheduled build date with 12/25 delivery
12/2 actual blend date
12/3 actual build date
12/7 tear tags dropped (whish we had the tracker back)
12/14 received built email with photo
12/21-12/27 delivery window (dealer had 12/25 delivery)
12/30-1/6 delivery update
12/31-1/7 delivery update
1/6-1/12 delivery update

During this entire period, my dealer (via VINVIEW) shows it sitting in a wooded lot (not the rail yard). All the while, my dealer has received one that was built 2 days before me and one that was built 4 days after me. My sales rep has one that has been sitting in the rail yard for 2 months, finally moved onto a rail car the week before xmas, and sat there for over a week. Not sure of current status.

@Ford needs to really get a handle on their logistics, this is beyond embarrassing.

I have almost identical dates as you. My first ship estimate was 12/16-12/22, and now it’s up to 1/6-1/12, which I know is complete crap because it’s “shipped from the plant but still waiting to be placed on a railcar”. Mine is likely also in the same wooded lot. Last winter it was ice mountain waiting for the chips (although mine has no chip holds, it’s literally built and in shipped status). I suppose this winter it’s tree mountain.

So happy for you. With so many still undelivered, this seems like a monumental task. I am super let down. deflated even, I researched Tesla's and that depressed me more, the expected mileage is way shorter, there are no 4runner trd pro's 22 or 23? I am between a rock and a hard place needing a car, and being so so close...... trying to stay positive, but with absolutely no movement in over month, its hard. I feel for all of you that have had longer waits....

I have a strong feeling that next week is going to be your week. Seems like they are getting a lot switched to shipped status finally and I’m hoping with a few more days with the assembly line just coming back and slowly getting back into it from the holidays there won’t be many piling up and they’ll keep getting the ones out the door that are parked on the lot.

 

[John Bronco_ I am here]

Picked mine up today. This brings to close 2.5 years of ups and downs. Checking into a shipping container to get her to Iceland, no more reason to abide. As we all know I'm getting long in the tooth and this is highly likely my last Bronco, time to ride off into the sunset.

All I have to say is.... it's been real, it's been fun, but it ain't been real fun.

Adios partners!

My Bronco was delivered to the dealership this afternoon, unfortunately they close in an hour so we’ll have to wait until Monday to close the deal.
I hope you all get yours soon as well!!!

Congratulations!

I hope. Its sad to leave money on the table, with ford. I don't know how they are not getting draged through the mud more. they are worried about dealer overcharging, they need to be worried about their logistics problems or hiring more overland carriers to deliver their $60K dollar products to us. They need to do something, the rail lines are failing us, they need to step in as a billion dollar conglomerate, and make this right.

I’m in same boat as both you guys: blend, built, and shipped but gone no where. Hope we get moving soon.

For those that have shipped by rail through Chicago, about how long was it until you saw movement? Also, do I just stay with tracking through CSX? Or do I need to start calling the different rail line? My guess is the rail car stays the same the entire way through, right?

Mine spent 3 or 4 days in Chicago, then switched from CSX to BNSF, rail car stayed the same all the way to Tacoma.

Been waiting 4 days for the correct bash guards to come in after being overnighted on Wednesday. We could have picked the Bronco up Wednesday and come back for the part but we were told no point since it would be there within a day or so and they would install it right away. Well now five days later and no apparent way to track the bash guards, looks like we should have picked it up instead of wait.

We tried to say screw it we will just head up and get it today but they said they can’t do wire transfers on Saturdays and instead needed to do a personal check. I’ve never had the option to do a personal check before when buying a vehicle so that caught me off guard and of course the check book was at home so we turned around. Looks like Monday we will pick it up, and then go back for the steel bash guards whenever they arrive. I know many of you don’t even know where your broncos are right now so I’m not gonna be too upset about this, but is still a minor annoyance being this close and still not being able to get it lol

Thanks for sharing. Mine was built the day after you, and supposedly "shipped" a couple of days later to Portland, OR too but I've never been able to get rail car information and my ETAs have been "updated" 5 times already.

 

[Strummer]

Built 12/29
Shipped 1/31
Car # TTGX695693
Current Delivery estimate 1/12-1/18
On its way to Austin, TX
Arrived in Chicago 1/6
Arrived in Yard Center (Dolton), IL which is UP 1/8

Fingers crossed- relieved to hear that the certificates were extended!

Just checked my the train car via CSX, the train car was originally scheduled to be in IL 1/8, the train is in Columbus and now not scheduled to be in IL until 1/13…crazy how the cars can just sit idle for almost a week and how things change for day to day. Like what happened from Friday to today for a week delay? I’m waiting for it to come to CO, so hard to predict when it’ll be here.
