Nice! That's very exciting. It's good to finally see some movement on builds in this thread. It's been a while since anything has happened. Hopefully this means mine will be on its way soon considering I'm only a short ways north of you.
Yeah, you won't be able to use that method then unfortunately. Maybe someone else knows of some other methods, but that's the only one I've been using.
You can use this link if you have a reservation ID. You would just put it in place of of Xs at the end of the URL. That will at least give you Ford's estimate, which may or may not be accurate.

Mine is pretty much the same story as yours, built 6/8, but my delivery window is 6/18 - 6/24. There are plenty of people getting theirs delivered before their windows, but there's also a lot of people that have there date pushed back multiple times before they actually get it.
Would that really be precise enough to find where in a vehicle it is? I've never had one but I always assumed that was more for seeing where on a map it is, not such a small scale as the interior of a vehicle. We know his key is inside the vehicle since he was able to start it.
Where about in Wisco are you if you don't mind me asking? I'm in the 5/16 build week but just got my built email on the 10th, waiting on shipping now. If your Bronco is any indication of how quickly mine will ship then I should be seeing mine in the next couple days :)
I'm wondering the same. Mine changed to awaiting shipment yesterday, got my built email this morning with a delivery estimate of 6/18-6/24. I asked my dealer if they have any info but they must have forgotten how to send a text message because I haven't heard anything back.
Its extremely common for dealers to sell Broncos $10k over sticker or more. That will continue to happen until people stop buying them, which hasn't happened yet.
I've heard some dealers do it this way. Others will just charge you the 2021 MSRP up front and just deal with ford for the check they send. So you should be fine, just make sure you get that check!
This is why I decided asking chat for a delivery estimate for mine was a waste of time. If they keep changing the date there's really no point in getting one in the first place.
I haven't even bothered asking what the deal with mine is. I just assume its on chip hold since I have yet to receive a built email, or maybe it'll just show up one these days. I don't really gain anything by knowing where its at given that the dates they give you change so much it doesn't...
