After 32 days and 20ish hours, my BS has finally shipped!!! Hoping for speedy status changes for the rest of you!
Wow, 32 days! I sure hope I don’t beat your record.

Also happy to see that “Similar Vehicles in Status” has dropped again from 69 to 67. Small victories.

My ETA has moved up slightly on the Visibility Report today. It's now saying October 20th as the latest date. We shall see.

In better news, I started the documentation with work today to accept my dream position in North Carolina. We've sealed the deal on a cross-country trip for my new Badlands. Glad I bought the roof rack while I was in NC on my detail, because we're moving at the end of March! Funny enough, the first thing my new boss asked me is "So is your Bronco there yet?" ?

I’m closing in on that record. This is really starting to get frustrating.

Maybe 32 days will be the magic number?

Give us a little insight into the “dream position” of yours.

I'm a recreation ecologist for the US Forest Service. I got a job as the Recreation Program Manager on the most-visited district of the busiest National Forest in the country. It's just outside Asheville, NC and is packed with beautiful waterfalls, well-maintained trails, recreation sites that are honest national treasures, and borders a community that genuinely loves their National Forest. My job is to connect people to nature and now I get to do it for the Forest that most rec folks spend their entire career working towards.

I graduated with my master's in 2020 and was selected as a Presidential Management Fellow. I've been moving around for the past 10 years for school, then for my first fed position with the Forest Service in AZ. With the PMF, you stay in your first job for 2 years then have an opportunity to move if you wish. I met a PMF alumni occupying a leadership position with the National Forests in NC who offered me a detail position there last March and advocated to get me there permanently after the detail. My boyfriend and I finally get to settle down and buy a house since I'll be keeping this job for the next 10 years or so. Works out well, because that puts us way closer to our families and is exactly the type of place we've been looking for. I'm over the moon honestly.

That’s my neck of the woods-just over the mountain in TN. I love hiking in that area-Brevard and Shining Rock are favorites. I’ll see you out there sometime!

That's awesome! We'll be living in Brevard if we can find a house. I can hardly wait for this March. Loved every day of my 4-month detail on the Pisgah.

I'd like to host a weekend Bronco Sport get-together once we get settled. Hit the Parkway for some photo ops. Maybe drive a couple Forest Roads afterwards with the group. I think it would be really cool to meet some of you guys.

How many days are folks up to at this point? If I remember correctly, the previous Ordertrack record was 32 days.

Spoke to Ford on the phone yesterday and they're just saying they're facing shipping delays. Haven't bothered my dealer again yet but will consider asking them to reach out to our regional rep if I hit day 30.

Tonight it will turn over to day 34, but somebody else is about 2 days more.

The "shipping delay" excuse is bulls**t, because we know that they are not piling up every days production for the last month. There are trains leaving with vehicles on them. There is some other reason ours are sitting there for this long.

Just really wish they'd be honest about what it is. I'd rather know. Sitting in the dark is driving me insane.

It’s a very short drive, probably not even to the end of the driveway. ?
