My 2D OBX Rail Car status at Baldwin, FL is now “Empty, Released to Customer” on 5/01 11:47 AM.

Now waiting for Truck delivery to Bozard Ford, St Augustin FL.

Looks like will have to wait until next week it drive it home, unless some magic happens.
I got that status yesterday. still havent heard from dealer or tracker update despite the rail yard being a couple miles from the dealer.

Thanks! Anyone surprised at how dirty it is? I am so glad the first thing that goes on are a set of Rokblokz!

I was planning on washing it myself, but it may be hard to inspect the paint with all that spray. What would you all do? I figure the lowest paid person at the dealership are the college kids washing the cars.

Usually the dealership will remove the plastic, wash it, and fill it up with gas before you pick it up

Very cool! Someone already had some fun in that one!

I'd let them wash it. Lowest paid doesn't always equate to someone who won't care about your car or know what they are doing. Mostly, its a Bronco. Paint is the least critical component on the rig 😁

Mine is ready and waiting at the dealer too...if all goes well will have it later on today.

Afternoon update... It just left Shattuck, OK.

So cool to see them start showing up at dealers. But also bummed about how many are not moving at all...

I agree…it seems surreal. I was stuck at “in production” and then “built” for what seemed like a while compared to what others were posting, but this thread has read more like the game board LIFE or Candy Land. When someone seems ahead and you are envious of their progress, they fall behind in another stage of the process.

It has been an unbelievable journey. It has consumed a lot of my time since 11/21 when I began playing on the B&P website. I placed my order 2/1/22. Now I am a bit fearful of it not living up to my expectations. I am encouraged by the rave reviews and testimonials that it is well worth the wait. I need to keep it all in the proper context of life, my faith, and keep a healthy balance so that it does not end up being an idol that sometimes I fear it has already become. This will be the first new car we have purchased since 2006.

For personal use, we haven't bought new since our 2012 Hyundai Genesis Coupe. But I do have a work vehicle that I replace every 5 years or so. Currently it's a 2016 Equinox and past time to replace it... But it's got 115k and still running well, so I'm in no rush.

We've had a garage full of Jeeps for about 10 years too... And my 2012 Frontier that just went over 30k this year.

I hope the hype plays out too... I can't imagine it won't.

Anyone else still stuck in production like I am?
it’s weird yesterday i called ford twice, the first time i was told that the vehicle has been shipped on 26th; the second time I was told that the vehicle was produced on 5/1 but is not ready to be shipped awaiting update.

my tracker still says in production.

today i called my dealer and he informed me that it looks the vehicle has already reach Minnesota on rail. But he did not know how to get the rail car number.

super confused…

Back from dealer, no Bronco.

No ADM and the Smart Vincent cert was a no brainer. They got tripped up on the rest of the price protections (3/11/21 original order).

Gave em the flow charts and asked them to make some calls to Ford in the morn. We’ll see how it goes then.

What’s the link to the bot chat. After clicking support i got to chat but since it has office hours i am assuming that link is for human chat.
