Regarding rail car tracking: Does anyone know the difference between being “constructively placed” vs being “placed at the customers location?”

Constructively placed means it’s in a holding pattern until a spot opens up for the train to be parked prior to being unloaded.
I was in that status for a few days. Just shy of three full days.
Same. Was constructively placed on the 2nd. Today (the 6th) it said placed at the customers location for the first time. Hopeful I’ll be able to go this upcoming Thursday or Saturday to pick it up since that would be right in the estimated Delivery window and would actually work with my schedule. It’s fun to dream.

I was contacted on Thursday that my 2 door Badlands Sasquach arrived. They said that Finance would reach out in 3-4 days after they complete PDI and doc prep. They have a lot of Broncos coming through, so I’m patient with the process.
Until I got scheduled in March I had completely given up on getting a Bronco because I wasn’t giving up the 2 door and Sasquatch. I’m just happy to finally get one after almost 3 years of waiting.

Out of curiosity, when was your blend date?

Woke up this morning to see my delivery window got bumped back a bit. 4/14 ship date. Delivery window now 5/5-5/11. It was previously 4/29-5/8. Sort of expected that to happen but still a bummer!

My delivery updated to the same range as yours through the Backdoor link using my original reservation number. I tried checking with my most recent Ford email, but it gave me an error unable to recognize the VIN. Not the first time that’s happened. I think it does that when the system is updating. It’ll probably work tomorrow.
I had the same expectation. Figured delays with this many Broncos showing up in one spot should be expected. Patience.
Family members were getting sick of hearing that I "was getting" a Bronco and starting making fun of me that I was just dreaming.
But like you, I wasn't giving up on 2-doors or Sasquatch. AND my manual transmission.

Oh, lucky you! Mine had the same blend date and is apparently still at MAP; probably sitting in the corner somewhere collecting dust
@Ford Motor Company. Is there anything you can tell us as to why there is a delay in shipping? I understand there are many Builds going to Granger, for example, however why are vehicles that are built after the fact and that are going to the same place getting shipped almost right away, and others have to wait a month or later to have theirs shipped.
Any insight would help anxiety levels. Thanks

I dont think you will get an answer. Mine spent a long while in production then went to built and 2 days later shipped. Sometimes they wait for parts, maybe they are disorgainized...its coming though.Oh, lucky you!

The crazy thing is, when I call marketing, they say it is fully built and not waiting on anything. Just needs to be shipped. They just won’t mark it as built until the schedule the shipment for a few days away. Something doesn’t seam right
