Have you taken delivery? I am 3/27 build week, and my Bronco just hit Norfolk rails yesterday. Trying to gauge how accurate they were with the estimate.

Bummer. I want it now. Missing out on good top off weather. My Lightning came Convoy, and it only took 2-3 days. Hate that it is likely 2+ weeks for me. My only hope is that I am in Kansas City, and we have an F-150 plant here. Hoping the railways are a little more dedicated for my route.

Welcome to my world. I was 4/21, then 4/20, and today slipped back to 4/21.

Mine rolled out of the factory going on two months ago and still shows in production on the pizza tracker, delayed in the dealerships Ford system and produced to released forecast on the freight tracker side. It turned into a ghost right at the finish line 573 days later

Got some movement on the tracker this morning. Finally showing as “Built”! I was thinking it also might ship right away to hit the ETA window. However, ETA moved from 5/6-5/12 to 5/26-6/1… Whats a few more weeks

Ford chat says my status is released from plant and awaiting shipping. The tracker says shipping can take a few days up to a week - is that to be believed? How long do people usually wait for shipping?

I was just bumped to 5/9-5/15 delivery. I'm thinking this bottleneck could become an issue.

Mine took 5 days to ship. Built 5/3 and shipped 5/8.

If I am learning anything about the shipping process, I am learning it unreliable. Amazon has spoiled the hell out of me for knowing what is where..
I talked to my dealer and they informed me my bronco is in the city. It still needs to be transported from the rail to the dealer back lot, plastic removed, and inspection completed. They say this takes about 2 weeks..
Of course in my mind, TWO WEEKS FOR WHAT?!? but I get it. Its time to just let the process do its thing. I would be lieing if I told you it didn't drive me nuts.

I have an estimate date of 5/10-5/16 but haven’t gotten anything from ford yet, my salesman told me they revived over 100 broncos last week and sent me pictures so I believe it. I’m still waiting though as I’m going in from out of town. Keep us updated as your build date was first. Check out the pics they sent me, he said it would take some time to finish processing all of them.

Thanks for the reply. Your giving me more information than my dealer at the moment. Still know changes for me as far as ETA. Its driving me kinda crazy. Im wondering if my Bronco might of been shipped and tracker didnt update or something.

UPDATE::

My dealer says im on the rail car now and that they can get a ping on the Bronco with GPS to see if its moving. Hes been on top of it and will update me in the morning.. On the home stretch now. Hopefully not too much longer.

Latest eta for delivery is end of May. Originally May 16-20.

Thanks for the reply. Hopefully mine will come in with yours.

My 22 Bronco took 2 weeks from shipment to delivery. 1 week to get to Atlanta and another week to get to my dealership

I'm a little surprised by that "two weeks". My Bronco arrived at the Salt Lake Union Pacific depot and was "waiting for placement" the evening of April 29th. It was "loaded actual placement" the morning of April 30th. Was "empty" that evening. It was at the dealership Monday, May 1st. I called and the dealership confirmed it was on site. They estimated two days to get the Bronco prepped and I was notified Tuesday May 2nd that it would be ready at 4:00pm for my pickup.

Perhaps my earlier negative dealings and comments to the dealership made them want to get me off their backs as quickly as possible. Whatever, I cannot do anything but praise my experience over the last few months as opposed to the near fiasco cancellation of my Bronco order just a few months prior.
