Who's a 7/19 build?

[DesertMike680]

I think it’s tow and rock rails. Took 10 days to add rock rails to mine. Can’t get clarification on tow. I want to compare to someone who got tow package along with the email.

Rock rails? Really? Why is that? I ordered them, obviously...

There was a news article that confirmed my theory.

Interesting that there are a lot of Broncos showing in the wait yards with the fastback tops. Since these weren’t even an option to order from the factory I suspect they are throwing those on temporarily while they wait for more MICs…further helping your theory MIC is the major hold-up to ship.

False alarm

Not a bad theory.

Update: mine now says 7/25. Either my theory is correct about weekly updates with no changes or the number is totally unrelated and useless.
@Permaxyz when was your window sticker last updated? Mine has 7/3, then 7/10, then build day 7/12, now 7/17. Thinking they do a weekly update unless something changes. Maybe no change means g2g?

Last update was 7/10. I assume mine is ready to ship. Just hasn’t happened yet.

Mine was last updated on the 21st. Under "in production" the same date appears too.

The pictures of the holding yards are pretty old pictures now, I'm not sure they were even doing customer builds at that point?

I’m sure there’s still some there. There’s at least one lolol

Mine was published 7/3 and I got weekly updates until 7/18 with no changes.

Rock rails may be the issue. They’re having trouble getting them as you cannot order them at all and in fact have been removed from the Bronco accessory catalog. Look, they’re not there anymore.

My dealer mentioned that dealers are supposed to get 2DR stock and they will have the Bestop. I have been trying to get one since May with no luck. I would love them to send my 2 Dr FE with a bestop and ship me a hard when they get them worked out!!

I've not yet seen where this one comes from. The link at top of forum is the same as Ford's. The Motorcraft one is new to me and nice to see a long list of modules, but doesn't tell me much....

The existence of the modules and data means that they have been, at minimum, pulled for install to your rig, because some of the data is VIN specific. I don't know how far ahead this gets pulled and populated but I know mine wasn't populated yesterday evening but was by the time I went to bed.

An FYI on the module list. Each group, i.e. 6F0-XX-XX is a different module. The rest of the data is the "as built" data. If you ever have a module replaced and the Ford diagnosis tool can't automatically swap the data to the new module the tech will have to enter all that data line by line.

Here is an example of what the modules are from an 2019 F-150

Here are some screen shots of how the data is entered if need be.

Hope somebody finds this interesting.

Really....who would have thought? They could be what is holding mine up. I mean, ship my Bronco to the dealer then at a later date send the rock rails.

I was replying to @RubyRedGT who said they got a "built" email mid-afternoon, I'm unsure of their roof, but I'd bet it's a soft top. That was the first I heard of an afternoon email. I'm optimistic that they may be catching up on some confirmation emails

Yes I’m soft top. Changed 2.5 months ago after learning the MIC delay/issue was serious
