I'm wondering if having SAS or wheel upgrade are slowing my order down a bit. My timeline and tracker updates are a little slower than others with similar builds otherwise.

My tracker seems broken compared to others. Built 2/5, no shipped date yet and still no window sticker link. I do have an expected delivery window, so that's nice I guess.
I was thinking maybe the beadlock wheel as there apparently was a halt put on them with the raptor models. My dealers website shows they are getting 3 '26s so I'm hoping my hold up is just Ford waiting to have enough vehicles to stick on a truck since I am only 4 hours away.

Haha, same. Another tab that stayed alive on my phone, along with tracker and 6g forum. All feeding my anxiety 🙃.
Ditto for me on sticker populating 1 week before blend date. Others posted about delays for BAP, including my dealer, but didn’t seem to be a problem

Just went to get my railcar number. It was interesting that their system still showed the original ETA and not the one updated recently on the pizza tracker...which now has a window of 2.20-2.26.

They are used to just looking at the GPS points as opposed to railcar number, but one of their newer people now has a new thing learned LOL.

It's in Oklahoma now, so i think the 20th is not realistic since that mean arriving in Amarillo or Tucumcari AND being trucked here in a day and a half. But next week could happen...

I'd be inclined to say I was jealous, but you have been waiting longer than me...I didn't order until early December.

My dealer shows delivery eta the week after the tracker. I'm not sure whey they are so off with the same source information. Point is, trust no one.

Is that with the "warm alloy" beauty ring wheels? I have that wheel package, but renders show the ring much darker. I was hoping they would not look silver.

That is correct. Same wheel option from last year. I saw your post to Michelle about delivery. It seems to me the people who have been getting their Broncos VIA Rail are actually seeing a ship date. Those of us who got it via a truck, seem to be skipping over the ship date and just showing up.

Usually yes because if the destination is close enough to ship, its less then 24 hrs. Mine did the same thing back in 23, shipped truck from MI to TN same day.

Having finally figured out i needed to enter the TTGX along with the railcar number, I've learned my Bronco is a bit under two hours away in Canadian (TX).

I might go try to find it tomorrow...am guessing it will be in the yard sometime in the AM.

Couldn't help myself...it passed through Panhandle about a half-hour ago, so the rail car would likely be in the BNSF South Yard auto facility shortly after midnight.

Panhandle is about a half-hour from Amarillo...

And...it has arrived. Per the automated system, my rail car arrived at Amarillo at 11:10pm.

Text already sent to dealship staff so they can start bugging people when they get in around 8-830a...
