I have to admit though, could you imagine being one of the 100k plus people that aren't on this forum getting updates, even if ~70% are BS? They must be going nuts. And it doesn't help that we have popcorn threads like https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/breaking-in-your-new-bronco.22521/
@PSUTE I meant to tell you - you're from Malvern, right? I have a good friend of mine that grew up there. He used to wear sweatpants that had "Malvern FD" on them going down the leg. We used to tease him all the time about "no one know WTF Malvern is" and he'd say "everyone knows where Malvern...
Dirt Mountain. Got the email that said "yeah, it's built, but you're hosed; the roof sucks" and everything. At least if they had me write the email it would have said that instead of the 149 words they took.
I feel like I've been refreshing my inbox and browser since 2 hours after the reservation system went online when I placed my res. I have a 2 DR AMB sitting in Purgatory - talk about a unicorn! I might mount a giant friggin' horn on the front of it.

While everyone else is buying new wheels and tires and other mods, I got a call into this old dude to setup my mall crawler to sound like this. I wonder if he takes Ford Pass points :unsure:
It was like Fast Times at Ridgemont High:
“Did you hear that Chrism guy pulled a knife on NickP?”
“No he didn't. He just called him a dick.”
“People exaggerate so much around here.”
The timeline is a bit confusing. The Awareness Communication says:
Does that mean Broncos built after July 21 that are still "In Production" but not "Built" are OK? I'm still holding out hope, but then this doesn't give me the warm and fuzzies:
I've been giving Ford a lot of leeway, but...
Yeah, I was thinking this too - I don't have Paint Protection, but I do have roof rails, and I'm wondering if the "body shop" might also be add-ons and such that aren't put on the line. At least that's my hope, and I'm not going to be sitting in a lot somewhere
Just for a data point, I have a 2dr OBX (so MIC), Lux, 4A, 2.7, Leather, roof rails, switches. Reservation was within first 2 hours, and early allocation at dealer.
Blend date of 8/6, rotation was 6738 (so 858/890) - I knew it was late in the run, so wasn't expecting much for the week of 8/2...
Yeah some dealer sites are a bit wonky on VIN lookups.
I use this one:

Just add the VIN after the = sign
Smith Ford in Washington NJ has a 4dr OBX AMB with Soft Top and Roast Leather if anyone is interested. Not sure if they are letting folks drive it or not.
The VIN is listed - you can see if it EXACTLY matches your build. If not, the dealer could always say “commodities are holding yours up.” I’d bet this is a customer’s order they are brokering or some such.
