Hey, fantastic, big congrats to you!
Hope mine isn't tooo far behind. Had the out of state dealer who sold me my Rubicon in September offer me $2000 more than I paid for it, after 5000 miles of use. That was too good to pass up, and worth seeing how I get by with doing errands, etc, in a 1987...
Mine is still at "Built" on the official tracker (which I forget to check, so thanks for the reminder), and switched yesterday from 1/13-1/19 to those "goofy February dates".
Good luck to you, if you actually managed to hitch a ride from the factory! The Stephens web site is still showing the...
And you know what’s funny? That actually gives me hope again. I am SUCH a sucker.
Well, they say that’s how casinos hook people into gambling addictions - with intermittent reinforcement, alternating losing with glimmers of hope.
The Stephens website currently lists 15 Broncos as "In Stock", which I believe is Ford-speak for "built and awaiting shipment". You can click the window stickers and see they're all Special Orders.
Nine 2022s and six 2023s, one of which is mine.
I've been waiting since the 12/5 build week for...
Okay, explain the convoys. Lots of us not traveling by rail, but waiting months for a truck.
And yeah, when the Jeep I ordered in the interim is ordered, scheduled, built, shipped and delivered within 8 weeks, I'm gonna throw a side eye at Ford for not having their act together on any front.
Just confirming - has anyone following this thread picked up from Stephens (or "gotten the call") in the past six weeks?
It seems Ford is having issues finding shipping trucks.
Yeah, I got the same thing.
To recap, since 1998, I've placed factory orders with:
VW
MINI (twice)
Toyota (Three times - MR2, FJ Cruiser, 4Runner)
BMW
FIAT (Abarth, of course)
Jeep (twice)
So this is my ELEVENTH experience of a factory order.
I remain amazed and amused at Ford's ineptitude...
