Waiting room

[Elegance]

Just wanted to apologize to folks for getting a bit panicked on the Forum this week. The process has been frustrating and I wait patiently for each Thursday scheduling only to be disappointed week after week. Seeing my twin Badlands this week set off my jealousy too much and I went full depression posts on here.

I've literally spent the last 4 months on edge which probably isn't the most healthy. ? My boyfriend said it best - I'm stressing over a vehicle that literally does not exist. It should be just a pleasant surprise when I do finally get scheduled. I've got a perfectly fine Big Bend to hold me over until that happens. Trying to change my attitude this week, folks. Sorry again.

This whole process would drive anyone mad . Enjoy when it happens.

I understand fully... I lost my car in a accident in January... And my 21 year old back up car... Died.. well it's repairable but repairs cost more than the car is worth... So I have a rental and can't wait till my bronco is mine .

Kris, this is exactly the place to vent. Everyone has either been in the same situation, is in the same situation, or at least can sympathize with the situation.

I don’t know if anyone has already posted this. I received this message today from Ford:

Dear A,

We understand it has been too long since you last heard from us. Today, we wanted to give you an update on the status of your Bronco Sport Badlands™ order.

Unfortunately, continued supply chain issues are slowing things down. We’re working diligently to try and reduce these delays.

Now here’s our promise to you. We know that waiting for delivery of your Ford is far less fun than actually driving it. So, we commit to updating you as soon as we can, at least once every 45 days regarding your vehicle’s production schedule status. No matter what.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

You guys are so supportive! Appreciate the kind words. Definitely makes me feel a sense of community here and helps a lot with the waiting game.

Hope you don't live close the to unloading Ramp... That seems frustrating also

As of yesterday my rail car was in Tucson Arizona. It had left the plant on 6/30. Only if I lived with my son in Maricopa Arizona I'd probably have my BS next week ?. Now the long wait to the East Coast.

I honestly have no idea where it'll unload. Might just unload in Nogales since my town is only 2 and a half hours from there. I won't be aggravated at all so long as this thing gets built - The rest of the journey will be sheer excitement. I've been doubting it'll even exist as a tangible vehicle for a while now.

I do feel like the train movement is satisfying. I got my “shipped” email on Wednesday morning and have called each morning pleasantly surprised at the progress. It left Kansas this morning.

I'm curious which path yours will be taking.. I can guess based on the route mine traveled.. which was totally not what I expected.. 99 miles to go on the train ..

Did rail tracking give you the next ETA?

Fairly sure it's not physically possible for it to have left Kansas yet unless your email lagged the actual shipment by a couple of days. CSX has an average speed of 15mph.
