Got the beast yesterday
Major upgrade over my 2019 JL wrangler. Love the Bronco!

After I made my weekend run to Huntsville Alabama and back in BOLO I couldn’t be any happier with the purchase of it. Smooth ride on the highway, a little trail running on hunt and fish trips and some mall crawling with the girls strikes a perfect balance. Here some more pics

AT 8PM my Bronco's rail car got transfered to a repair track which is progress, hope they get it operational again in the next couple days.

Ford really should just incorporate the rail car tracking into their tracker.

Picking up my Bronco later today. I finally got access on the Ford App to it this morning. It shows it has 25 miles on the Odometer already. I know they do some QA tests before it delivers but other vehicles I have ordered were usually less than 10.

How many miles were on everyone's odometer when they picked theirs up?

How did you get access to the vehicle before being able to register it? I thought you had to have access to the vehicle to be able to do that. I was able to put my vin in the app, but not actually get any info.

Has anyone had any luck tacking on Norfolk Southern? I go through the automated process then it tries to connect to a representative, who isn't available, and asks if I want a call back, or leave a message.

I checked it out on Friday but it wasn’t going to be ready to take home until today.

Mine had about 20.

Yeah, my brother who works at Ford in Dearborn said from MAP to the offsite temporary lot where they were held was about 10 miles. So they were driven there. It makes more sense with that in mind.

He would see them heading that way all the time.

Anyone with a hardtop noticed excessive wind noise? My 2DR hardtop has a sound like it's not fully sealed around the back passenger window letting air sneak through. Its definitely not the top panels, those are sealed well and have had no leaks in rain/carwash so far. It sounds like it's the seal between the Rear Passenger window and B Pillar

I've noticed it when I turn my music off. Mine sounds like it's coming from the hard top, where the 2 panels meet the solid panel over the 2nd row seats on the 4d.

I had a convertible Sebring back in the day and knew thered be some wind noise, but the cabin is very quiet otherwise. That little bit of noise isn't a huge deal, considering the multiple issues people have had with hard tops so far, just a small annoyance.

My only complaints so far are nitpicky, like the parking brake being in a weird spot, no audio mute button on the steering wheel, the mirror controls being in an awkward position, etc. Other than that I'm loving every second of driving!

Absolutely. I agree. Its not my daily driver so I day dream about taking her on long drives/road trips.

I haven't drove her in a few days and she only has about 150 miles on her in just over a week of having her.

But we have a beach trip booked for Saturday, so planning on parking her on the beach and spending a decent amount of time there.

Can't wait! Works been killing us lately.

I'm at 180 miles after picking her up late Friday night (almost 40 miles on the odo at signing) and most of those were just joyriding every second I could.

Can't wait to break everything in and get it ready to go on some trails here in Southern AZ!!

Have fun on your trip and enjoy it!

Oh we will! We're debating about taking the front panels off. Its still hot AF here, so it may take some convincing to get my GF to agree lol.
