Unfortunately it is the way of the world right now. It is sad! ?

Strange. Each dealership must go by its own rules. I talked to my guy yesterday & he said instead of waiting for the truck to bring it to the dealership, they will go get it & drive my BS here if I wanted them to. So 65 miles added or wait who knows how many days for it to be transported… ??‍
One dilemma after another.
I just hate to think someone is going to drive the crap out of my brand new car

It looks like they have them staged, I’m sure they are getting some attention! Hope you get out there soon to get yours!
Monday is the current plan! I’ll just add (as many have already), Granger has been such a simple and clean process for me thus far. Most everything is already lined up for pickup (finance, incentives, warranty, and other expectations). Hopefully it was the same for you.

First they have to get mine, then we’ll see. Glad your whole process, besides the chip hold went smoothly.
That’s what mine had been saying all the way up until 2 days ago & now it something about logistics controls deliveries & union issuesStrange. Each dealership must go by its own rules.

I’d pay for a flatbed tow myself at this point.

Hey All,
I just received an email from my dealer, my bronco is finally in. It looks like our National Nightmare is finally over! I’d have gone crazy without you all. Here’s to wishing no last minute squirrelyness from dealers upon picking up the keys!

Mine said that too but when it came down to it they didn't! I'm just glad I didn't have to wait long on the truckStrange. Each dealership must go by its own rules.

After a long 7 months, and quite a ride with you all, she’s finally here!!! I hope everyone’s ships soon and gets delivered quickly, you all helped me stay sane with a lot of insight along the way!
Everything went smooth at the dealership and no problems with price protection (after I pointed out the mistake), rebates, etc.! It wasn’t cleaned super great which was a bit of a bummer, but I can deal because I’m just happy to finally have it! It drives like a dream and the outside is gorgeous. Very happy with the color I picked! I already had someone drive by, slow down, then drive by again gawking the whole time?
I am missing panels on the passenger side & I’m pretty sure the drivers side as well. The flooring looks a little funky but it might just be normal with the rubber flooring. Also missing an engine cover, but I do have the hood insulation.

are you the 2nd one actually picked the car within the July "chip hole" group? did I miss anyone who also got the car already??
I feel you. I was glad I couldn't trace rail shipping without necessary info. I'm sure mine was sitting in the yard for sometime. Nogales is not over a week of train ride to southern California.
