I did a write up on the DV8 MTO bumper at the link below. I’d did some air flow measurements at 35mph and saw a 36% reduction in air speed at the intercooler. https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/my-modest-big-bend-sasquatch-build-dv8-mto-winch-bumper-xrgb-headlights-graphics.66061/

Here is my Big Bend Sasquatch build. I decided to go with the DV8 MTO winch bumper. I was looking for a bumper that kept the winch somewhat enclosed but still allowed for good airflow. This DV8 bumper seemed to be a good compromise. The bumper arrived expertly packaged and I reached out to...

I upgraded from the base headlights—just plug and play.

I received and installed my Morimoto XRGBs last week. I'll do a longer post on the lights soon but I did want to quickly share some information about the colors since that seems to be a hot topic for some. It is correct that these are not RGBWs with white-only LEDs, but I've been able to dial in...

This. The kids have been talking/wishing about getting a Bronco for some time now but they had no idea one was actually on its way. We took delivery on Wednesday, stashed it away for a few days and surprised the kids on Christmas morning. In my family this is known as a “To: Dad, From: Dad” gift.

Here’s another thread ‘OG’ moving on. Wishing you all a speedy delivery and I’ll catch you on the flippity flip. For your reference, here are my final dates from blend to delivery: 9/12 Blend date 9/30 “Built” (56 days on Dirt Mountain) 11/25 “Shipped” with assigned rail car 11/28...

Look what finally showed up in snowy Minnesota. Delivery tomorrow.

Congrats! Today will be day 9 at Cottage Grove for me — it sounds like our rigs were on the same train. If mine doesn’t make it on a transport Monday or Tuesday I may have to do a “paper delivery” next week to preserve my interest rate.

9/12 blend and still not delivered. Today is day 8 of the Bronco being off the train and stuck at the transfer yard. Are there any other 9/12ers left on here still waiting to get their rigs?

Update on my rig. She moved reasonably quickly once shipped although she did spend 7 days bouncing around IHB yards in Chicago. I’ll assume the parking garage guys from Ferris Bueller took her for a joy ride. 9/12 Blend date 9/30 “Built” (56 days on Dirt Mountain) 11/25 “Shipped” with...

My Bronco moved to “shipped” yesterday, too. It looks like a bunch of us that all suspiciously moved to built at the very end of September also moved to shipped this week. I have a rail car number and CSX tracking says it is still at Wayne with the next stop being Blue Island (Chicago)...

For the record, my Bronco moved to “shipped” yesterday. 74 days since blend (9/12) and 56 days since it was released (9/30). I’ll be moving over to the ‘stuck in transit’ thread now. Hope to see the rest of you over there soon.

Day 50 awaiting shipment. Day 68 since blend (9/12). Dealer says there is nothing they can do to expedite it. My Bronco was in that suspiciously large group of builds that moved to ‘built’ on the last day of the 3rd quarter. Getting myself into the mindset that delivery will likely be sometime...

Day 20 awaiting shipment. Day 38 since blend (9/12). Chat says it’s “released from the plant to a carrier.” Hey @mphc - any update on your rig?

Just checked in with Ford chat. ETA to Minnesota (via rail) is now 10/17-10/23. Winch was delivered yesterday. DV8 MTO front bumper arrives this weekend. 9/12 blend, 9/13 modules, 9/14 tear tag, 9/30 built-awaiting shipment

Here’s a reason for optimism for the ‘stuck in production’ crowd. My Bronco’s status changed to “built” overnight. 9/12 blend, 9/13 modules, 9/14 tear tag, 9/28 chip hold, 9/30 built-awaiting shipment

Just checked in with Ford chat and was told my status remains "In Production" but now with "Micro Chip At Plant On Hold." 9/12 blend, 9/13 modules, 9/14 tear tag, 9/28 still "In Production"

Count me among the "In Production" purgatory builds. Day 11 since blend. Earlier this week chat told me it was "produced" and gave an estimated delivery week of 10/3. I checked again today and was told that now it won't be "produced" until 10/9 and there is no longer an estimated delivery date...

Judging by my place in line, it took about 24 hours for the BCE modules to become active.

I was just about in the middle of the 794 builds yesterday (9/12). No modules active yet but I’ll keep checking and will let you all know how long it takes. I’m in Minnesota so she’ll be coming via rail. I’m hoping the rail strike is averted for more reasons than just getting my Bronco.
