Are we going to experience "Railyard Mountain"? LOL ((joking only, I hope this doesn't happen))

Trying to be patient but this is painful!

This is the hardest part. Our Bronco is built and not a dream anymore. It's within grasp. That is why it makes it more difficult. We'll be ok.

Thanks for the optimism!!! I was hoping to get it this weekend because I’ll be busy next weekend. So it’ll be 2 more weeks before I’d be able to pick it up.

Same boat. I get busier and busier as the spring moves forward. I'll figure it out though. We always will. We're a resilient bunch around here. We keep getting knocked down, but we stand back up and push forward.

I wonder if the railroad(s) are holding rail cars in the east due to the apparent bottleneck in Omaha. My Bronco has been sitting at Gibson railyard since Saturday morning With no ETA to anywhere.

I'm leaving the country for several months. So if the delivery slips too far, I won't be around to handle the transaction or pickup the vehicle. Which I guess is par for the course, given how the release has gone.

If you google biggest "Dumpster Fire" you'll see Ford has won the #1 spot

Well, I would like to say that you should be confident that the transaction can be handled electronically and transport to your residence. But in my experience, you shouldn't have that confidence.

I was intending to drive to Iowa to handle the transaction in person. But Granger's trade-in offer negated that idea. It was far too low so I figured I would handle the transaction electronically and have a hauler deliver the Bronco to my residence. Despite not having a problem electronically signing the DORA(s) for the past few years, the sales staff uses a different system than the finance department. I've tried multiple times today to access the financial documents, but they require a PIN to authenticate the end user. That PIN is being sent to someone else each time.

My experience is obviously the exception as I'm sure we would have heard about others having problems.

I say we make a rule in this thread right now. Every time you call or email Granger for an update on your rail car you owe Samantha a $100 gift card to Outback Steakhouse. I’m serious. Just leave them alone.

4/15 ship date here. Saw a Granger email today and got excited. But just a note about fixing my address change on my rebate while it’s in transit.

applaud the proactive reach out on their part while we wait for sure! Looking forward to taking delivery in the next couple weeks!

Mine was shipped 4/20, got an email confirming it's on the ground at Granger. Just waiting for all the pre-delivery actions to happen now. They're insanely busy, truckloads of Broncos at once so be patient with them!

Lucky you. You shipped after me and arrived before me. Must be nice!

Same here. What’s that old saying, first in the rail yard, last one out of the rail yard.

Lucky you. You shipped after me and arrived before me. Must be nice!

Shipped same day as me and got an email before me! The gods of shipping are fickle but fascinating.

I believe nothing until finance calls and we make the deal Could have just gotten lucky with fewer delays on my particular railcar as well.

I also don't put toooo much faith in the exact accuracy of Ford's timestamps...

Still shows shipping "in progress" on my Ford account. It's not really real until I grab the door handle for the first time!

FWIW, I received all notifications from Ford up to the shipping notification. It has been at Granger for the past week and I still haven't received a notification from Ford that it has arrived.

I'm just waiting on the clumsy e-signing of the financial documents before I can get it shipped to me.
