Nope. Just use the link in my signature to the sheet and add your info to the row after the grayed-out section. I'll re-sort and get you in the right place when I get the chance.

info added, thank you sir.

For those that have the modules populate, My blend date is today my rotation is 225/1124. How long was it for the modules to appear?

Well, looking at the spreadsheet, @amcdermond was 214/1090 yesterday and reported modules at 9:48 AM today. So, at the current pace (which can always change), I would expect modules for you sometime tomorrow morning.

Thank you! The sheet is quite active now, so I'll re-sort later when things calm down a bit.

Looks like we had another entry from @buckin-fronc with a 9/19 blend date and modules turned on. Welcome and congrats! Good to see another Cyber Orange Bronco!

Thanks! I'm so SUPER excited!!!! My birthday is in October...fingers crossed. Thanks for the awesome spreadsheet. I love seeing how mine compares.

The ordertrack.app web site developer is aware of the outage and will be unable to address the issue until this evening at the earliest. To access your modules directly, please use this link:

https://www.motorcraftservice.com/AsBuilt/

(It's been posted, but it's probably a page or two back now. I might continue re-posting it every so often to help, but you can just open it in a new tab and refresh as often as you'd like. )

So does that mean no window sticker yet? Just wait for the window sticker to be available someday, which will show the blend date.

I don't get the obsession with people contacting Ford chat to get day by day updates. Just let the Bronco show up when it's time!

I agree, and I have never contacted Ford chat or the hotline. I'm a pretty patient guy, and I don't need the Bronco now like I did two years ago when I reserved one. However, this is a major purchase, and there is almost nonexistent communication between the seller (Ford or Dealer) and the buyer. What communication has happened was mainly changing the rules and not protecting the customer from Surprise ADM. Throw in a volatile financial market and exploding interest rates, and yes, the consumer gets uneasy.

I said this in December 2020 on this forum, Covid is/was not an excuse to be non-transparent. Whatever the situation is, communicate it. Communication isn't happening because Ford works for Shareholders and dealers first. It would be great to have honest updates about a major life purchase. Heck, I get more updates about my auto-ship dental floss from Amazon.

info added, thank you sir.

Also, your shipping mode is on your window sticker below the description of the vehicle package and right next to the MSRP price. Given it's shipping to Midland, TX, I would guess it's shipping by rail.

(As an aside, I used to live in Lubbock, which, by Texas geography, is right next door to Midland. )

Not to argue too much because I feel the frustration, but my take is that Ford pulled the curtain back TOO far and this level of end-buyer scrutiny is unprecedented, hence Ford was totally unprepared for it.

We've got modules!!

It looks like you and I were just about next to each other on the line. Our tear tag #s are the same (whatever that means)! Congrats, sister! We are getting closer by the day!

The only communication we've had with our dealer is when we made our initial reservation, then converted to an order, when we rolled over from a 21MY to a 22MY, and when my husband called to get advice on dropping the tow package (we ended up keeping it).

Our dealership has not notified us that we were scheduled for a production date, when we actually went into production, that we had a window sticker, etc. But, I checked their website this morning and our (yes, I understand it's still "technically" their bronco until the purchase is officially made) bronco build (VIN matches) is listed on their dealership website.

Checked with Ford Chat. I have a delivery ETA of 10/15. I've emailed my dealer to see what they say. I'm aware shipping delays can occur though.

Hmmm... after our frenetic pace this morning, things have begun to slow down. This may, of course, be a result of people being unable to check/report modules. We also have some sizable gaps in the place in line, which could slow things down. As someone with degrees in meteorology/atmospheric science, I love making predictions and then not caring how wrong I am.

The following is based upon the timing of posts in here and information in this thread and prior build weeks. It's just a guesstimate. All references to time are relative to EDT.

• With @lastsun only 43 vehicles behind @MN>AZ>OH, I'm guessing they have their modules, but may not be able to check/report.
• Next is @barger93, 104 vehicles later. Judging by the pacing we had earlier, I would think they're getting close.
• Behind them is @Krillen01 - 121 spots later. This is past the halfway mark in line, so maybe it doesn't pop until 2nd shift. I'm not sure when that starts, but I hope they see something maybe mid- to late-afternoon.
• @uncledoodoo follows 82 spots later with @B.F.Bronco0822 just 32 spots later. Perhaps they'll see modules this evening?
• 71 spots later is @JeebusCripes, who will serve as my personal lighthouse since I follow another 71 spots behind them. If they report mods tonight, I might yearn for the days of Dave Attell's Insomniac show.
• @outnumbered is just 37 spots behind me with @Bronc281 just 7 spots behind them. I imagine we'll need to wait until morning, but that might also depend on your time zone and personal schedule.
• Finally, @Emmitt is near the end of line 141 spots behind @Bronc281. They'll likely be waiting until morning.

The above users are all 9/20 blends. I would expect 9/21 blends to start to see their mods sometime tomorrow.

Just checked and got my module! Thanks for the reminder

I’m hoping for later this afternoon but I’ll keep checking until 10ish CST.
