My 2 Door BaseSquatch shipped 3/29. Delivery estimate to Granger is 4/13 thru 4/26.

:cool:
Same for me, 4/13-4/26, wonder if all of this weeks Granger orders will be on the same train? Would be nice to have a car# to track them. I would bet the 4/13 is the more likely date, Can't imagine it taking more than a day to get to Omaha after it leaves Illinois. has to be non stop across Iowa. Biggest factor will be how long it sits in Indiana, or Chicago yard depending on the route it goes after it leaves the plant.

For those who have their Bronco make a pitstop in Omaha, there's a guy that works at the dealership in Council Bluffs that's very close to the rail yard. He frequently flies his drone over to the yard and gets footage of all the Broncos and posts them on the Omaha Bronco Club page on Facebook. Join it and/or check out to see your rig in a few weeks.

Your dealer can tell you the railcar #, it should be shown on the DORA.
Once you have that, you can track thru the train company:

Dealers also have a feature called VinView that enables them to track it.

I was built as of 3/26..... hoping the train for the east coast leaves this week! ETA is 4/9-4/16 in eastern Pa.

I've read this elsewhere but perhaps I'm dense - how would the DORA the dealer and I signed last year know the rail car # THEN? I received my "shipped" (to Granger) notice overnight for an estimated delivery of 4/16 to 4/22 (which is at least the same as the "built" email's estimate, so I guess that's good). Where on the DORA (or anywhere else in the umpteen little Ford windows I'm keeping "tabs" on (pun intended!) should I be looking?

Meanwhile, back in the real world . . . HAPPY OPENING DAY!!! ⚾ If MLB's here then the Masters is right behind and that means putting winter behind us RSN.

I drove by the loading lot this last Saturday to see what it looked like. There were several out there but still plenty of room. I truck loading and rail cars lined up. They might be at another location as well but that’s what i saw.

pics aren’t the greatest as i was driving and trying to get snapshots.
Were you on S John Hix Rd? That looks almost like my wifes eruption green 4 door soft top non sas badlands in that one photo. This is where my dealership freight tracker is showing my modem pinging from all week.
My wife would love to get a good photo of her sitting there waiting to go out. She hasn't gotten a production line photo.

I found out that mine was delivered to the dealership this morning. It doesn't have a shipped date or email, so apparently it just teleported there. I went and looked at it during lunch and it is everything I'd been waiting for. Unfortunately, I had to go back to work, but plan to do the paperwork later.

Southern Illinois. About 6.5 hours from the plant, so I didn't expect a long transit time. Just a big surprise that it just appeared without notice.

I just got on the Ford chat a few minutes ago and asked for my railcar number, called CSX and found out mine's in Ohio, and in south Indiana by Saturday night
