Mine is still sitting at “Intermediate Arrival, Louisville, KY” for 48 hours now. Says “PlacedAtIndustry” should happen tomorrow at 6:59 AM Central Time even though it doesn’t have an address. We shall see.

Please let me know what the message changes to when it actually arrives.

well..I may be one of the first to pick up my car in this group.......but I'm still waiting:

Ford Bronco Sport July 2022 Waiting Room 1662153299090

Sunday cruise to Malibu and a mountain bike ride.......my friend pulled up and pointed at this:

Ford Bronco Sport July 2022 Waiting Room 1662153258020

I pulled the nail after the bike ride hoping it didn't go thru...NOT, it was a long nail and when I heard the hissing sound my heart dropped. really...after the long wait and now 2 days into the new ownership!!???? so, I'm on my spare steelie
Ford Bronco Sport July 2022 Waiting Room 1662153338103

The waiting part is that I have already ordered 4 new 235/70/17 A/T tires coming...so I thought, ok, I will just wait for those to start all over. I got the tracking numbers.....FedEx came yesterday.....only THREE tires showed up?!!!! what ??? yeah, somehow one did not make the truck, it may show up tomorrow. they don't have a delivery day yet!! sounds like Ford is handling their delivery.



the even more funny thing is.....once got the new tires and got it all setup...will I go into a withdraw from tracking something????!!!?????

will we all??? :crackup:

I hope all of you get your car soon. Have a great Labor Day weekend.

Hey @Jenbeth - Norfolk Southern says my rail car got to the Doremus Auto Ramp at 8:08pm. Falls in line with what UP said, since they use central time and NS uses eastern time.

The weird thing is that the UP trace system doesn’t seem to say anything about it being delivered, other than the standard “train arrival” message. Here’s what my fax looks like:
Ford Bronco Sport July 2022 Waiting Room FA002910-D3A8-41A9-A343-E3E7D3463741

By the way, I’ve recently been using the FaxBurner app on iPhone to get these, it works better than my actual fax machine! Not much more info than what they give you over the phone, though. Wish NS had a fax option!

Still “inactive” on United Road. Once it shows up as active I’ll see if UP changes anything on their end.

Thanks for sharing, looking forward to hearing good news from you tomorrow.

I’m already concerned that it will actually be a let down once it gets here because I won’t have this to obsess over anymore.

For those curious, here's the full path my rail car took from Hermosillo to New Jersey. It was pretty fun calling each day and marking up the map as it went. I'm going to make a digital version eventually and put it in a separate post all about railroad tracking.

I promise you'll find new avenues of obsession over your Bronco.

I'm sure it won't be. You will be waiting for time and finding places to go with it. making road trips plans...exploring new places....

The Mountains, the Beaches, the Canyons, the Neighboring Towns..will be calling, and you must GO.

PlacedAtIndustry has come and gone and my rail car still sits in Louisville instead of Shelbyville (or the dealership or my garage). Thinking back to the picture I took of the Shelbyville rail yard, I wonder if it is too full to accept more vehicles until the ones sitting there are shipped out.

@Jenbeth . Woke up this morning and they must have been in my bronco. It is activated now and there are 23 miles on it. Map first showed like Berlin Germany and then like Kansas or something weird. Still shows in production. Did yours have that many miles on it? Seems like a lot. Maybe something wrong with it. At least they started it.
Mine had 31 when I finally got it

Curious as to what Ford said estimated delivery date would be?
