RIP my '05 Tundra cat converters, both cut out in front of my home overnight nearly 2 weeks ago. $4,700 to replace (price escalated thanks to parts shortages, and sensors they cut out too). It's still happening in plenty of locations, and now that it's happened once to me I'm quite nervous...

+1 on Team Find a B6G Member. Certainly someone here is geographically close, and the details of this inbound order would be very desirable to them.

Been refreshing backdoor link while ONLY peeking through my fingers like it's a horror movie for the last week orso hoping it still says 6/27. This week is the cliff edge in front of the paralyzing July shutdown. I don't have the guts to ask Ford Chat for anything more specific than what the...

Damn porch pirates are getting more and more bold, year after year. Last year they got my hammock. This year they got your whole build.

Welcome in with us 6/27 misfits! Some/most of us are BW-6/20 involuntary refugees too. I wonder if barely missing the cut and getting bumped at the last second puts you 1st in line for 6/27. The realtime to-your-door delay may be less than you're imagining.

I cringe when I see the Ford Flex, because I hate it but almost. It's like someone took a '23 mod-top 4-door Bronco and crammed it in a Panini sandwich press overnight until it was smashed, overcooked, and the toppings had gotten squished out of the middle. It's an Alabama 2nd cousin to the...

Shit. Welcome to Bronco6G - we're glad to have you here even though the event that inspired it is terrifying. I guess figuring out where the emergency brake is is high up in the list of delivery-day priorities, and then constantly programming my mind to think about toggling it in low speed...

I completely agree! There's just such a huge mental difference between surviving a waiting game that's forever in silence, versus infinitesimal delays when so close to the end. See also: Surprisingly week-of June 27th relevant too.

I don't think we've seen *any* bumps in the last week where someone got moved from pre-shutdown build weeks to post-shutdown build weeks. Getting bumped from 6/20 to 6/27 felt tolerable, but going from 6/27 to next available on 7/25 would be crushing. After so long of waiting, I don't know why...

@Maineah right now...

At this point, the only real answer is that he found the magical place the fob disappeared in, and that place grabbed his whole entire body and trapped him in there too. Hopefully his family can find his browser history and let us know they're missing both the fob AND their husband/Dad.

Did you set it on the roof of the car? I've done that before while reaching over to grab some junk out of the passenger seat.

Daily??? You guys are sticking to once a day?!?! I'm setting the O/U of people with VINs checking their status via either official or backdoor link at.... 4.5 times/day.

I would have heartily paid $0.03 to skip the veritable thousand(s) of people with a similar build who signed up between the separate thoughts of "I have $100 and want a Bronco" and "finally here is my $100". :D :D :D

... Only that I thought about it for a week before deciding to put the $100 in and make a reservation.

F. Bumped to 6/27. Do I delete my entry line off of the Google sheets? What's the polite protocol?

Had my catalytic converters cut out of my 1st gen Toyota Tundra overnight today. Nothing like having to pay for *that* in my current vehicle's Centrum Silver days <2 weeks from my BB build date.

Don't hate me now for being the only idiot moved UP (from 6-27 to 6-20) haha

Thanks for the feedback/report. Very glad to hear it! I didn't hate driving JKU's the last couple of times I've rented them, but to know that 2-doors are better than that is all the more relief for me. Looking forward to the nimbleness after being in a truck forever.

Factory soft-top? No way. 99'ing my shoe order until they come in MOD top shoes. I can wait.
