Most of us are waiting, drinking more and more getting frustrated by the lack of info regarding any movement of vehicle. So I thought if people posted when they take possession of their vehicle (please only April and newer dates) it will give us hope that there is movement and the possibility that we could post here about our "Just picked up my Bronco". Pics and smiles would be great also.
Stay safe

Well, I don't know if it counts, but I picked up A Bronco today - just not the one I ordered.

Reserved Day One, ordered Day One, still nothing from Ford - no VIN, no build sheet, no scheduled build date, no nothing. I got fed up with waiting for Ford to pull their head out of their ass and build MY Bronco, so I went out and bought one. Searched for months online to find what I wanted, finally came across one advertised at a dealer just a few miles away from my house - only problem was I was on the other side of the state on a business trip and wouldn't be back home until the next week. I was sure it would be gone long before I could get there, but I called them anyway and let them know I was serious about it.

Got there when they opened this morning, put down the cash, signed some papers, and drive home with it. Paid a little more than I really wanted to, but I'm fed up with Ford and waiting.

My order was (is) for a Base 2 door, V6/auto, Carbonized Gray, Sasquatch -.cloth seats, small screen, no other options. What I bought is a Badlands 2 door V6/auto, Carbonized Gray, Sasquatch, leather seats, big screen, etc. Just what I wanted plus a few extras.

When (if?) Ford finally gets around to building the one I ordered, guess I'll sell it back to the dealer for a profit.
It counts, it counts!!!!!!! Nice to hear people are getting that Bronco smile!!!!!

It’s been a couple weeks…..but posting its arrival never gets old. Hoping this thread gets much longer in the coming days.

I notice you park it far out in the parking lot, well away from other traffic and wandering shopping carts. Yes, indeed!

Re: EBG:: posting 05/09 on buying from other dealer's available inventory

I am SO MUCH on the same page with you! I actually ordered a Badlands High Package, with tow and a few other options, last November, and was resigned to waiting for a year or so. But I kept checking other dealers' inventory, and engaged in a few on-line chats with sales associates. Then on April 29, another dealer (Herb Chambers Ford, Braintree, MA) texted me and said they had two cancelations, a Badlands 4-door and a 2-door Wildtrak. (Perhaps somebody's portfolio collapsed? Thanks, Joe!) Long story short, I made fast tracks there and snagged the Badlands Lux/Sasquatch/Carbonized Gray for a lot more than my earlier order, but: I'm turning 75 this month, and I decided to splurge significant $$ to get it.

I'm not canceling my order. If it comes through, and Broncos are still in short supply, I'll flip it. (Hmmm...I wonder if thebronconation here would let me post it?)

I have 500 miles on it, and am enjoying the ride and learning curve. I plan to get to the New Hampshire Roadeo for orientation and training, then take it to Maine logging roads, deep mid-state. This summer, I'll be in Utah along the Nevada border doing research for my novel, about a month. I love the national parks, but I'm more of a "middle-of-nowhere" type of guy.

I'll try and post a few images this week.

Very nice red! If I had mine I would park it in my driveway put out a chair, get some tunes and a beverage and just enjoy the view!

Picked mine up at the beginning of April. Was an August 2020 reservation holder. I absolutely love it! It is hilarious when I have it out on the road and people roll down their windows to tell you that they like your car. :)
