Bronco Build Week 1/8/2024

[PJBronco]

I was 151/700 Friday but mine still shows In Production with no Tear Tag. I wonder if its because mine is an Everglades it still needs to be completed off of the line to install the winch and snorkel?

Not sure, but my build had a brush guard and roof rails, which I thought were installed off the line as well.

I believe that is our situation, I was 38/700 and last I was able to see at work was body shop which would mean winch/roof rack and we’re not sure if snorkel or not.

Still show in production on site, modules up with no tear tag.

My everglades build dates:

Ordered: 9/28/23
Scheduled/in production: 12/22 ?
Blend: 1/8/24
Mods popped: 1/8pm
Tear tag 1/9
Built 1/11

Shipped: TBA

Didn’t seem like there was much delay after the blend date to tear tag. I think the ford vehicle tracker itself has delays.

I'm really excited about the Everglades, I have only seen 1 driving and it had a manufacturers plate and it was amazing (only thing I'm a little worried about with it being a 2.3 but I think it should be fine). I have only seen 1 Heritage Limited, it was in my gym parking lot and it also was amazing. Come to think about it, every Bronco I've seen is amazing!

It is a cool Trim. Enjoy. I would have ordered the 2.7 if it came with the manual. So I also will be getting the 2.3.

Interesting to try the CSX railcar tracking for the first time. Sitting/being loaded on a railcar in Wayne, MI. Provides an estimate of arrival of Jan. 20 (railyard in Massachusetts - 130 miles from my NH dealer).

It is kinda cool to be able to track. I just called and mine is in Kentucky on its way down to New Orleans.

How exactly do I track my Bronco shipment via rail? Is it done via website or phone and what information to I need to provide to track it?

I just chatted via Ford Chat and this is the response from the Ford Chat representative.

'Thank you for waiting. I have located the order in the in-production status. The vehicle has been produced. The last location shows Ford Michigan Assembly Plant, MI. I see an ETA of Feb-03-2024 for the start of the order traveling to your dealer. I also see an ETA of Feb-09-2024 for delivery to your dealer. Rail car information is not available yet.'

You can get the rail car information either from Ford or from your dealer. Once you have it follow this link for instructions on how to call.

The rail car tracking number: ford marketing told me this morning they don’t give rail car info out anymore because of the inundation we put on the railroad phone answering people. dealer just told me the rail car info isn’t accurate but he would send it my way when it’s available. Isn’t the tracking automated?



ford marketing: expect dealership arrival between 2/10 and 2/16 to Missoula, MT

I’ll keep waiting patiently (though it really hasn’t been that long for me.)

Your dealer should have the tracking information if Ford's not willing to share it.

I was able to get my rail car info from Ford chat this morning. Csx car number was given and I followed the instructions from another thread on checking it through the automated number. I got delivery eta for 1/27/24 to my dealer in Georgia. Ordered 8/16/23 scheduled 1/8/24. 1/10/24 built 1/11/24 shipped. My tracker on the website has delivery window of 1/16-1/29. It has moved up by 3 days from the first update.

Finally starting to put my finance hat on.. anyone have any insight on any credit unions or financing options to look into other than ford? I also thought about doing the ford flex pay option (last resort) but not sure if that would kill me in interest even if I do plan to pay it off in 3 years. Any thought or comments would be greatly appreciated!

I just got off a 5-minute chat with Ford (chat option on their website) and they gave me the railcar number and ETA at my dealer. Was able to call 800-235-2352 (CSX Rail) and through a totally automated system determine that my Bronco is in Indiana today and will be in Chicago on Wednesday. Ultimately I need it to reach the Twin Cities MN area so ETA is Jan 24-30. Blend date was 1/11.
