7/24/23 Build Week

Ok...straight from built to final prep. Never received any shipping notification.

I didn’t get any email from Ford either. I just was a PITA with my dealer from jump street. Told them from day one “I will be here every 1st of the month to check when I can order to when it’s delivered” and sure as shit did. Went down to the Jersey shore (and no ..not like that dumb ass show) & missed the 1st but followed up as soon as I got back and spoke to the dealer. As soon as it rolled off the truck I got a call and text w/pic. All I can say is do the same, don’t call…if possible go visit.

@Fordgirl2003, thanks. I originally wanted to go w/the KMC Dirty Harry in gray. Figured I’d save money w/the Roush that I could put into the Diode Dynamics fogs in the MOD bumper and the possible Oracle roof light bar 2.0 version when it comes out. Yes …it will be a “mall crawler” for 95% of its life, but my career dictates snow days R not an option. Need the lights cause I go to work at o’dark thirty and deer in Jersey don’t G A F!!

Missouri deer don’t care either, I completely understand!! I’m a firm believer in do what makes you happy and it sounds like that’s what you’re doing! I absolutely love it! Mine will be mostly pavement but he’ll see a little off roading here ‘n there, nothing stupid like i did in my younger years though

Wish I could. I'm 3.5 hours away from my dealer. All three dealers in my home town didnt have enough allocation to get an order in until the 24MY. Ive been in contact with my sales rep almost weekly since May when I ordered. I think they might be as surprised as me that it showed up. Will find out tomorrow when I call when they open.

Yeah, that distance sucks… I’m fortunate enough that my dealer is within the distance of my morning 5k runs so I’m close by. To all ordering/waiting all I can say is constant contact..call/email/stop by. As an aside…got mine for sticker beside tax & temp (flipping my plates from my Charger once I sell it) no ADM or hidden fees. Hopefully that BS has gone the way of the Dodo. Guys @ Wayne Ford have been cool (so far)

As we wait, which accessories have you guys bought while you wait?

I've bought these along with a stubby antenna and have some Wildtrak take offs that had ~150 miles on them.

After 582 days and counting… Here are a “few” things that I have purchased so far.

I actually bought those same mud flaps for my BD and have been eyeing that same exact Corsa exhaust.

You better get your credit card out. I just got an email that it’s now 20% off (today - Sept 15th)

I have all the same items purchased too minus tires!

Welp….my fecal matter just got real. Dealer said (drink) “it’ll be here (North NJ) by September 1st.”
Got a text couple hours ago that it just came off the truck

. So I just ordered these cause I’m not a fan of the steelies they were a deal for $895

Pending my hour long inspection prior to purchase/acceptance of the bronc, I’ll be putting the factory wheels up for sale once I have the Roush wheels on.

Congratulations! So excited for you, she’s a beauty.

It’s exciting to see we are getting closer to getting ours! I called this morning, he left Baldwin for Tampa, I’m so excited. Is it too early to text my salesman, 5:30 AM seems reasonable.

Totally reasonable to me!!

Still no update when I call CSX on my rail car. Hoping for movement soon

I am hoping you get movement too. I just talk to my sales man. He said my bronco will be in Tampa in 35 minutes however it could take 7 to 10 days to get to them. It’s 45 minutes away I’m going to die or get arrested for a train heist.

7 to 10 days I really hope he’s just saying that so he looks like a hero when he calls later today and says “It’s here!!”

Otherwise, reach out for bail $$$, no questions asked
