Because after following along in this forum for a while, it's clear that Ford has no rhyme or reason of why they do anything 😂 I talked with the sales manager at the dealership we are using, last week. He has someone who was an early reservation holder, who converted to an order the first chance...
We have a 2017 F350 Dually with an aftermarket flatbed which we know we could sell outright, right now, and probably make back what our purchase price was. BUT, we have a 40 ft 5th wheel that we tow so can't be without a truck while another is on order for the next 2 years...ha!
Current stats:
Blend date 9/19.
Chip hold (verified by chat)
Released from factory, Sept. 30th.
Built email sent, October 2nd.
Delivery ETA to WA state, October 21-27.
Still waiting with hopes it'll ship soon considering my ETA window is still over a week out...no other updates since built email...
My husband keeps eyeing the F-450's with a box delete and I'm over here like...no bud, no! We're not doing the whole hurry up and wait game again. Not interested!
I walked into the dealership on Friday that we're using (in Washington state) and talked with the sales manager. He said there is somewhere in Illinois, that if your rail car stops/unloads there, it just disappears from the system. Then he said it sits, and sits, and sits. He has another...
We're still waiting for shipment to WA state. But our delivery window is the week after yours. So I'm all for them grouping ours in with yours and heading west!
We were a priority 10 the entire time.
Placed a reservation online, in June 2021, converted it to an order in Sept. 2021. Converted to MY22 in October 22. We just got built last week and are now waiting on shipping. 4 -door Wildtrak, Sasquatch, hard top, tow. A couple of months ago we were...
black really is my favorite color...until I remember the black bronco sport I have sitting in the driveway and all the freaking water spots on it from irrigation water hitting it from a neighbors house. ugh. BUT, it's gorgeous...enjoy!!
I was hoping that since we're both in Washington, both ours would ship together. Was also hoping maybe ours had shipped but just hadn't updated yet. Doesn't seem to be the case, according to chat. Dang it!
I logged on and saw all the movement overnight. Quickly checked my email and saw nothing. Decided to check the tracker and also got a nice surprise...:love:
Well.....no movement 🤦♀️ Maybe later today 🤞

It's estimated to be delivered to the dealership between 10/13 and 10/19/22.
On chip hold-we've only ever showed "in production". Ford chat is the resource that's told us "in production, produced" and now the chip hold :rolleyes:
We have a 4 door white wildtrak coming (hopefully..ha!) so I'm enjoying seeing what you've already done to your bronco. Window tint is the first thing on my list!
The tracker shows we are in production. Last week, Ford chat said our status was, "in production, produced." I haven't been checking the last few days hoping a built email would just magically appear. Nothing though. So I innitated another chat today and that's when we got the chip hold...
I just got off of a Ford chat. We are also in a microchip hold :oops:
" I see that your Bronco is In Production at the Ford Michigan Assembly Plant. The most recent update as of Sep-20-2022 reflects a delivery ETA window of Oct-13-2022 to Oct-19-2022 with an ETA disposition of Micro Chip At...
