Based on my experience it means it is built but not released, and they have already scheduled the shipping.What does it mean if they give us a delivery ETA but it doesn't show as being built?

Some you can pick it up same day. But they have to go through their post delivery inspections checking things over, making sure it's good to go. Some dealers will do a half ass job of it and tear all the plastic off w/o checking anything.What is the average amount of time required for “dealer prep” … after reaches the dealer and before we can pick it up?
I am curious about that too. What the hell do they have to prep. It's not a used car. Give it one more look over, which I will give you 2hr, and then give me my damn bronco. Sad part is that with all the prepping they do they seem to be missing all the soft top and hard top issuesWhat is the average amount of time required for “dealer prep” … after reaches the dealer and before we can pick it up?
Peeling of all the plastic.....Prep in the shop should be quick. Quick check of fluids/tire pressures (should all be fine but they should check anyway) do a state inspection then have it cleaned/waxed. I think a lot of dealers use the prep as an excuse if they are busy with other deliveries or if they are taking awhile getting paper work together.
Yeah, I get you now, the full line theory means we'll be built early Monday. My mindset is still hoping they slipped through Friday and are in QC or getting the roof rack put on and will still ship this week.No I actually prefer to hope what your saying is true. I want to believe that us late 7/23ers will get built and shipped by Tuesday!
I was hoping if we did get bumped til 8/2 we would see an update to our window sticker, but nothin’....Yeah, I get you now, the full line theory means we'll be built early Monday.

Correction; The estimate that's on there is when it might get released from the plant. Not when it's getting shipped. @Desert_6GHappy Birthday!
It means to call your dealership and have them make sure that's correct.
Mine was about 3 hours.I am curious about that too. What the hell do they have to prep. It's not a used car. Give it one more look over, which I will give you 2hr, and then give me my damn bronco.
