Yeah. It was a blast and an awesome memory made with my son. Got to use so many features on the Bronco and legit happy to have front steel bash plates haha.
Did you actually get the steel front bash plates or are you taking a jab at Ford? :D I never really heard if they corrected the issue with using plastic ones. My blend date is scheduled for tomorrow and the window sticker calls out steel.

I have a very similar build but in velocity blue. Digging the green though!!

I got the steel (One of the first things I checked when it arrived). It’s insane that they‘re moving to plastic though for the Mod Bumpers on the OBX.

I pick my OBX up tomorrow... One of the things I'm most interested in, plastic or steel??

My sticker says steel.

It’s just depressing my vehicle is built and is probably parked somewhere not being worked on for last 18 days (they enter deep sleep after 14 days on inactivity).

Agreed, this is unacceptable. Hope you catch a break your way soon!

I believe I was one of the first in our build week to get hands on. Really sorry for those of you that are built and still waiting. I would think at this point Ford would consider a set up like some of the European manufacturers (BMW, Porsche, others) have done where you come to the factory and pick up the vehicle and then stay in the area for a bit as a tourist. Add some dollars to the economy and enjoy your new purchase. Maybe they figure they don't have much to offer in Detroit to draw tourist revenue?

They figure correctly...

So ...who is still waiting on a 4/24 build week? I go through the pain of seeing train numbers and delivery pics lately. Can't be many of us left from our week waiting for shipping?

Mine was built and continues to sit at MAP since May 5. No update, chat useless, blown past 2 ETAs and vehicle is an allocated unit. Destination is Southern Ontario....so literally 3 hours away.

Torture at its finest. Shitty way of doing business if they are delivering later built units before mine.
Still waiting too

Thanks, good to know. Did you find any other issues?
Nah. Bruce (that’s our family name for the Bronco) has been perfect. Passed the check list at arrival and is driving great.

So sad to see many that aren't shipped yet, or stuck in production.

For me, today is the day... 4pm and we should be driving home the new ride.
