4/24/2023 Build Week

In anticipation of the delivery i installed the ford pass app thinking I’ll be ready when the bronco is here. Then one day i got a notification that Ford Streaming trial is available now. I opened the app to see that my car was on road going from some place to MAP.

Then a few days later location services were disabled but i could still see the gas levels and total mileage till yesterday.

now it shows that the car is in deep sleep preserving battery.

Till now I could actually see that the vehicle was alive through FordPass app, being driven (first 6 miles, then 24, last status was 40 miles) but for last 2 weeks it apparently was not touched so it went in a deep sleep mode and has stopped communicating. I think it's just sitting in some yard waiting to be picked up.

I thought you had to activate it while being near the vehicle?

Same, my app times out when I hit activate vehicle

You have to have someone in the car to hit accept to activate it. So there are instances where a worker hits accept but I don’t think they’re supposed to.

I guess maybe my timing aligned with somebody turning on the vehicle at same time.

Mine was at the dealer with about 40 miles on it too. Guess they are tested out before being shipped?

@Scoops McGooch CSX is reporting my car is empty and been released to customer

I got that message when it was about 25 miles from dealer. It arrived at dealer next day. Hope yours does too!

I'm not expecting it to show up tomorrow but that would be pretty amazing if it did since I'll be off work tomorrow afternoon

Looking at the GX specs (central diff locker) I am really thinking now to maybe wait for the 2024 4Runner announcement. What's another 2.5 years wait in the whole scheme of things.

Same! Now, how long will it take to get them on a truck to the dealership?? Mine is going to Landmark, which dealer are you working with?

I'd have to think they would be on the same truck with the two dealerships being so close, but who knows with this whole process!

My salesperson is aware it's at the rail station, will let you know if I hear anything about it being loaded up for transport.

hopefully nobody here was on there

Freaked out for a moment! I think mine is ok. My rail car departed Lucy, New Mexico today at 1:48am. So sad if there are any Broncos impacted tho. Man, to wait all this time....
