Appreciate it! Feeling the love.
Dang it. You won't tell us that it's built. My tracker won't change. Dealer isn't messaging saying that mine is there. 0-3 and this sucks!! I jump every time my phone vibrates.

This is painful , and mine is still stuck in Buffalo NY 5 days later when it was supposed to be in Ma last week🤦‍♀️ says the railcar has been released from the repair track but no further info …

Just switched from CSX to UP and departed Missouri! Said arrival to next location would be the 30th, but not sure where that will be. My dealer is in Edmond, Oklahoma. Also checked Ford Pass and it still says Activation Pending, but the verbiage updated to “Connected features are being enabled.” Anyone else experience that or have any ideas on how long it will take from Missouri to Oklahoma?
I still don’t have a shipped email, I’m guessing it’s bc there isn’t a timeline yet. Mine is in Illinois, close to STL as of yesterday. It started shipping the 22nd. Do you have an updated delivery date or is yours still unknown?

For a rookie here, what products do you specifically use, and What kind of schedule do you use for wax/maintaining exterior. Any tips appreciated!

So called the CsX number. And train is still waiting in Wayne. Did any one deal with the train taking forever to leave Michigan? It says it was suppose to go to Illinois on Tuesday now it says Thursday. So confusing!

I just did the wash, blow dry, Clay bar and a sealant,Klasse all in one, and some Dodo Juice Amazon wax on top of that. The sealant will usually last a year or more if the vehicle is garage kept. The dodo juice isn’t a long lasting wax if you daily drive your Bronco so I use Griots for normal waxing. I will most likely wax once a month or two depending on how much I drive the Bronco.

Disclaimer:I am not a detail expert. This is what works for me. A lot of pros that do it for a living probably have a better schedule/products to recommend.

Does the railcar tracking system tell you when a car is unloaded? My railcar has been sitting just south of Seattle in the location where they unload BNSF cars, been there since the 26th.

On the 27th and even today it keeps telling me the railcar departed that location on the date I call with no ETA. There’s a kazillion ‘check points’ it would have passed if it was actually on the way to somewhere (unless they stop reporting once it’s unloaded) so I’m not sure if the Bronco was unloaded or what’s going on.

Going crazy. My Mean Green Machine has been sitting out of the rail car for a week!!! Only 200 miles away and my dealer has no idea when a transport will get it to the dealership. I asked if it would be another week? He says .... just don't know. Can't say. Is there any way to urge Ford on a situation like this? ARGHH!
