Arrived 10 days ago but I was out of town. Picked up my new baby today!
2.3L manual black diamond.

Since I love pretty much everything about it I'll highlight a couple changes I'd make:
1. The "upgraded" 7-speaker audio system is not great - wish they had an option to upgrade audio standalone
2. For manual trans, why is the e-brake buried in a button below the left knee? I came from a Wrangler where it was a pull brake in the center by the stick, much easier

Y'all on this thread have been amazing. It's made the buying process a lot of fun. Thank you!!

Looks fantastic - congrats!

Agree about the e-brake location with the manual. I'm still in my first week of ownership.....find myself leaning over to find it every time (6'5")

I've had mine for about 5 days. I agree totally about the emergency brake. The clutch and the throw of the gear shift are ideal. I also have the Sasquatch package and it actually is quieter than I expected and I also have the soft top.

100% on the clutch & throw of the gear shift. Best stick I've driven. The noise is exactly what I thought it would be w/the soft top. A non-issue when driving below about 50mph but too loud for phone calls above about 60mph.

That e-brake tho, what were they thinking??

Great news! It’s on the way now.

For reference my vehicle was shipped 1/16 and arrived in Spokane on 2/4. Now I’m waiting on the truck transporter.

Now just start calling the cXs 800 number and clearly speak your train car number into the phone. I only called 3-4 times a day. It really helps build to the climax! Delivery day!
Ford Chat gave me the rail number today and now I don't have to rely on the tracker or my dealer not knowing anything haha.

Shipped 2/06 and is currently in Ohio. On its way to Chicago on 02/10. Eventuallyyyyy down to Texas.

After 9 months with zero to no status updates, to being able to check daily for real location, is a relief.

How in the world did you get a hold of Ford chat? Everywhere I look it shows that have been done away with for the past month and a half or so.
I’ve been calling FORD MARKETING to try to get a rail car number, and they refuse to give any information having to do with shipper, information. In fact, they are telling me they are forbidden to give out any more information concerning the shippers.
All I know is that my bronco has been released to the shipper.
I love to get a rail car number myself so I can track it through the auto bot phone system.
Got a link for the FORD chat you went to?
Appreciate you.

It's never easy. I always need to be on a computer. The chat for most people just pops up after a few minutes on most Ford.com tabs.

I've only been able to get it to work by going to accessories.ford.com/contact-us and it'll normally pop up for me in the bottom right corner after a few refreshes.

A blue message circle. Plug your info during Chat hours and they've helped quickly.

Try and use a different computer or browser if you can't get chat to come up on the Ford Support page.....there seems to be some sort of cookie drop that blocks it after multiple uses

If one chat rep doesn't provide it....try opening another chat later with a different rep

I've got 3 different people on that specific chat to update me on my order no questions asked. I'd definitely try again later for a different rep
