7/24/23 Build Week

Have any of this thread's 2-door been shipped?

I'm trying to connect some dots and identify a common denominator between those that have gotten out of MAP and those that are still sitting around somewhere.

Sounds like a lot of the ones that have some transportation movement are of the 4-door flavor.

2 dr here and absolutely no movement for shipping

Mine was released to carrier on Saturday when I chatted with Ford but that it was still in MI today I was able to get rail info.

The ford hotline was saying that they can’t give out rail info anymore, but I’ll try the chat

Cross-posting this info I shared in my build week's thread (2 weeks ahead of this one):

For those of you that are able to get a rail car number for their Bronco, you can use CSX's automated phone service to check on its location: (800) 235-2352

I was able to track mine all the way from the Michigan plant to the automotive rail yard in Kent, WA.

If you're like me, and want to obsessively check in 10+ times per day, I recommend setting up a speed dial on your phone with the car number programmed in so you don't have to say anything or press any numbers.

For my rail car TTGX 982769, the speed dial looked like this:

(800) 235-2352,,1,,81814192,,,982769,,,##

The commas should be spaced out correctly so the timing of the prompts work every time. To create your own speed dial, replace the 81814192 and 982769 numbers with your info. For the first number (81814192), you will need to program each number combo that pertains to the letters of your rail car. In my example, the first T translates to 81 as the T is the first letter on the 8 key. The second sequence of numbers (982769) is the number portion of the rail car identifier.

Happy tracking!

Fantastic! Thanks!

My salesman gave me mine. Don’t know if he was supposed to or not. He has to go out of town till next Tuesday and he knows I will not make it if I can’t get updates

I called Marketing a couple of hours ago and ran off into the ditch with that call. Ugh...Rep said it looks like it's still at the plant going through safety check, etc, etc...Said my delivery would be moved later from Aug 11-17, hopefully before the 23 certificate expires in Oct.

No movement on my car either. Going to call tomorrow.

My 2dr has nothing 7/27 blend 7/28 tear, tracker in production, chat in production was produced roof racks and tow package, shes Squatch but thats s line thing so other than mu salesman ghosting me text last Tuesday, email Thursday and today I called the dealership he still works there but of course no reply to my voicemail.... I don't even want tracking info just need to go over numbers... will call and talk to someone else in a day or two. Funny thing is I am fine waiting 2 Broncos in the stable the 3rd is a want not a need.

I've been steadily stalking my Bronco. Every time I check the CSX tracker, it's somewhere new. It's moving quick! Just left Lomax, IL almost into Iowa.

ETA shipping dates came and went for me too, 2dr. It's just sitting 80 miles away :/ Wish I could just drive down and pick it up.

Just talked to Marketing, she said there have been delays in rail shipping but it appears to be ok now. My new ETA is Aug 25th and its not showing delayed on her end. She said thats a good sign I’m really hoping it’s sooner but at least i have an update.

I’m hoping so!! No delays is a good sign

Update - Spoke to Ford Marketing this morning as well. Said that she can't see specifics but she does see that my Bronco has been released to the carrier. She said a good analogy for this is when you order something online and it shows that a shipping label has been printed and just waiting to be picked up by UPS.

So with this new information, I'd assume I'm at the rail yard with @Fly88. The only thing that's kind of annoying is I went over to the 7/31 build week thread and there's a bunch of people on there that have already shipped, which doesn't make much sense.

Last note, if you haven't already, I'd contact the marketing team. I was super nice and just asked if there were any certificates available for my order and I received the $2900 one! Wouldn't hurt to try!

Yeah, I couldn't make it past a few pages because I was scared my eyes were going to get stuck in the back of my head . Doesn't make any sense that some had theirs shipped literally a couple of days after their build day and we've all been just sitting for a few weeks.

Some of them are Wildtracks with a bunch of extras installed too, so there goes my theory of me having side steps and towing package causing a hold-up for me.
