Same here…. but my estimated delivery is still showing 10/12 - 10/18. Ford can’t seem to manage to move a truck 250-300 miles in over a month. Last Ford product I’ll ever purchase. This 2 years of bullshit is inexcusable

Your Raptor seems to have a hemorrhoid. Looks painful. Might want to get that checked.Received baby photo a week after pickup.

Because after following along in this forum for a while, it's clear that Ford has no rhyme or reason of why they do anything
I talked with the sales manager at the dealership we are using, last week. He has someone who was an early reservation holder, who converted to an order the first chance possible, and is still waiting for their order to be built, 2+ years later. He has another customer who's bronco was built 2 months ago, and it still hasn't arrived at the dealership. So I'm trying very hard not to complain (to much, or to loud..ha!) after only waiting slightly over a year. But if they could hurry up and ship my order...that would be great!

Looks like you only joined the boards about 10 days ago. I'm not sure how long you were lurking before that, but if you pay attention to previous build weeks, this is just how it goes. It looks like two people from the 1/24/22 (yes - January) build week took delivery last week. There's still someone from the 7/25 build week waiting for delivery while plenty in the August and September build weeks have been delivered.
This process has never been linear. There are QC issues, chip holds, and other Ford-based problems that pop up. (One of those in the 1/24 group found out that Ford lost the keys and couldn't move the truck. Took months to figure out the issue.) Beyond that, Ford is dependent on rail and trucking companies to move the vehicles to their final destination. There are driver shortages and was/is a pending rail strike. I'm sure it's a logistical nightmare to determine the most efficient way to move the vehicles to their dealership. (And, yes, "efficiency" includes maximizing dollars spent.)
The issue has been communication. All anyone can seemingly do is access the vehicle previewing and regurgitate that information. Some people have gotten farther calling the support number (800-334-4375), but that seems hit or miss. Having lurked on these forums since Spring, I understood how long some people have waited to get delivered. I know chip holds can be lengthy. I know my dealership knows as much as I do, if not less. I wish there was some way to know where my Bronco is right now (especially since it's supposedly "In Transit"), but that's just not possible and it doesn't appear anyone associated with Ford can provide that information.
So, I try to practice patience and maintain perspective. Other people have waited a lot longer than I have. And I don't really need the vehicle. I want it - and it will serve a specific purpose - but it's not necessary. Hopefully it gets here soon and without any issues. If not, I'll live.
(Thanks for coming to my TED talk.)

Added the carbon fiber letters to mute the white a bit. Love how they look!

Well my estimated delivery date is the 15-21. I got a shipped email on 10/3. But they still can’t provide me rail car info and say last location was still in Michigan. So do you think it has actually shipped and just hasn’t been updated? Or it’s stuck somewhere still in Michigan?
I'm have the same status as you, when I tried chat Friday she said I am still in Michigan, not last known location. I have my fingers crossed that their inability to track things might mean the Bronco just shows up someday soon. My shipped email came 9/30. New delivery window is 10/29-11/04.
My Bronco arrived at Alliance TX, final destination Sam Packs 5-Star. I think that's the last train stop before it gets picked up on a truck, not sure. Hopefully will have it very soon!
Oh, I HOPE mine is there with yours!! Expected this week, according to chat. Headed to Burleson Autonation.

Omg I freaking hope mine is on the same train
I haven’t been able to get any info. Every time I chat w Ford they say it’s still at MAP. Praying they just missed the tracking info and it’s actually in Texas. My delivery window officially started 35 min ago.
I've been MIA for the last several days working in the Jeep - I was hoping that more of you would have had good news on shipping/delivery. Hopefully the rest of you will hear soon.
I will say that now that I have wrestled the keys out of the 16 year old's hands I absolutely LOVE my new baby! It was definitely worth the wait.

Some stats from the spreadsheet as we start a new week:
9-19-22 Build Week Tracking Sheet
Let's get some more deliveries this week!
- There are 54 "active members," which I define as anyone who populated the tear tag column. We've probably lost a few from there, but I'm not quite ready to move to a higher standard.
- 36/54 reported a "Shipped" email
- There are nine additional members delivered without a "Shipped" email, so 45/54 are either "Shipped" or "Delivered."
- There may be others who are "Shipped" on a tracker, but never received an email. You can always use the far-right column for things like this that are not accounted for in other columns.
- As mentioned above, there are probably a few who have dropped away, so we're unlikely to get to 54/54. Perhaps I'll ping some of them as we get later in the month.

Well mine is "in transit" and left Blue Island but no other information or rail car atm. I spoke with my dealer and he said the last few Bronco's shipped were like this. They saw when it left Blue Island and got no other updates until it got to the final rail yard. It's a blind waiting game now.
So after sitting at a rail yard all last week mine finally arrived at the dealer Saturday. I just left from there and was able to physically touch it!! LOL Should take delivery tomorrow or Wed.
