Lying effing salesmen. He said no one at the dealership logs into United Road or Palsapp to view or manage their incoming shipments and that they just show up by surprise. He also said they don't have any general idea of how long it usually takes to get a truck from the railhead to the dealership. I'm fairly certain they've lost any hope of me purchasing so much as an air freshener from them after the vehicle arrives.

Also, yours was produced on the same day as mine, likely shipped the same day (31May) and made it to your dealership in Canada before mine. Ford's process is broken.

I’m really surprised at the transit time…it really was the express train. A clone of ours was also delivered today, slight mix of options (no tow) but equally long wait.

Awesome, congrats! There is someone on Facebook who ordered in Oct 2021 and I think she is still waiting to be scheduled, crazy! You officially won the Amazing Bronco Sport Race (delivery portion only), Lol!

It's really just process. The trains don't make up routes every time they go from one place to another. Both recent runs to Portland had the same very specific arrival time of 11:29PM, so it's possible to think it's a fairly regular route. Ford can plan the OTR section based on the anticipated train arrivals. The driver shortage is playing havoc down here, but maybe Canada is better? Even with the disruptions there should still be normative expectations, discernable patterns, and more realistic estimates than what Ford is providing. Of course if Ford does all the road shipment part ad hoc then no wonder it's so chaotic.

The last mile shipments probably hang around until there’s enough cars going to that specific dealership to fill a truck.

You should have ordered 7-9 Bronco Sports!

When I was at the dealership last time I watched the truck offload 2 vehicles then leave to the next location. It's full trucks going in directions, not full trucks going to specific dealerships.

Congrats, she's a beauty! My Oxford White OB is currently on the train to Portland. Maybe it will meet up with prawn's (which has been sitting there for awhile!) and they'll finish the final leg up I-5 together!

Build week is coming up and sure enough my window sticker was generated yesterday or today. All options included as expected, so far so good. Glad I have price protection from last December!
