I ordered mine through Ken Grody in Carlsbad. My eta through vin view is 1/25. Could happen but thinking more likely first or second week in February. Now that I have the rail car number I’m just calling CSX directly and getting updates.
I should've ordered through them, especially since they're closer to my house. I ordered before we moved the the area. Would you share your rail car number with me? Maybe we're on the same car? Ford update has me at 1/15, but who knows!

Absolutely! I‘m TTGX697431. I have a 1/15 estimate date from the rail car to arrive in Gibson Indiana. Could be the 1/15 date they are talking about.

Hmm. Mine is TTGX695343. I'm thinking this number will change once it hops on the UP line? I have no idea how train companies run, but it looks like the one they're currently on is only east of the Miss.

Ok, I found it...and it's also saying arrival in Gibson, IN on 1/15...I have a strong feeling my dealer is not taking the time to research for me and act like he's never looked up a rail car number before. Maybe he's new, but he's been there since at least last February when I placed my order! In any case, it looks like we're on the same train!

Killer! Let’s hope this train can get a move on for us 🙌🏼

I just sent an email to all of the top people - there is a thread that has their email addresses. Got a call the next day from someone in the executive office with an update and contact info for her directly
Where could I find this thread?

Really frustrated, my rental ends on the 18th so I have to make a decision on what to do. My bronco is sitting at MAP with the last update being 12/4. So do I wait and continue to pay for a rental @34$ a day until granger gets it in, or do I cut my losses and buy another vehicle instead?! Jeep/4runner?!
It's not less expensive to purchase either, but they are available. Super frustrated to say the least, seem to have a bad track record when it comes to ford, I've never owned one but my parents had a ford escort in the early 90s that was a lemon; now I'm dealing with delays with the bronco. One can say I'm reaching here, but is the universe trying to tell me something? Guess I'm just venting. I had to stop by my local dealership to look at the 2 broncos they had (outerbanks SAS, raptor) to keep myself inspired, but circumstances are becoming real.

Have you looked into renting by the week or month? Typically allot cheaper vice day to day. Do you have a friend or family with an extra vehicle? Offer them $250 a week or something and skip the rental.

You need to plan for not getting your Bronco for at least two months possibly. While they are flowing out of MAP it has been slow. Mine sat for over a month. And train shipping is also not rapid. They move at their own pace. And you could see delays after it's unloaded and before it even gets to the dealer.

Plan accordingly.

From what I understand the car number does not change.

It's been sitting since 12/4, if it's a couple months from that date we're getting close. I'm not gonna be waiting for Ford to get their shit together past that, it's already ridiculous to begin with, maybe ford wants to chine in otherwise I'll go with a competitor. Unfortunately, I'm out in Colorado by myself and no one else has an extra car I can barrow for that length of time. What I need is more info from Ford other than "last update is Dec 4th" it's sounding like amateur hour over in Michigan tbh.
