While on the plane from NC to AZ, I got a text from the dealer to set up my appointment. Tuesday 4pm. They need Monday because I told them I wanted ceramic film tint and they don't normally do the high end stuff.

Getting really close...

Spent the whole day off roading with my 5 y/o and 24 other broncos with STL Bronco. This thing is an off road beast …

Yeah. It was a blast and an awesome memory made with my son. Got to use so many features on the Bronco and legit happy to have front steel bash plates haha.

Had a moment where a huge tree branch fell a foot in front of my Bronco. Had I been a foot forward, it would have landed right on my hood. Glad I prayed for protection before embarking on the trip :)

Recap on my past status - Blend date 4/26 - original forecasted delivery date was first week of June, switched to built status in the tracker on 6/5.

Latest update per Ford Chat - awaiting shipment, delivery date 7/9-7/15. I have a pretty basic build - OBX with just the MIC and High package. Any way to find out if this was a QA check or has it just been hanging out in a parking lot for 6 weeks?

Did you actually get the steel front bash plates or are you taking a jab at Ford? :D I never really heard if they corrected the issue with using plastic ones. My blend date is scheduled for tomorrow and the window sticker calls out steel.

I have a very similar build but in velocity blue. Digging the green though!!

I got the steel (One of the first things I checked when it arrived). It’s insane that they‘re moving to plastic though for the Mod Bumpers on the OBX.

I pick my OBX up tomorrow... One of the things I'm most interested in, plastic or steel??

My sticker says steel.

It’s just depressing my vehicle is built and is probably parked somewhere not being worked on for last 18 days (they enter deep sleep after 14 days on inactivity).

Agreed, this is unacceptable. Hope you catch a break your way soon!
