Is your guys shipping Rail or Convoy? Mine is convoy and my dealership is only 40 mins from the plant, so I wonder if that's why i'm not seeing the same progress you guys are?
Convoy, heading to Granger.

I think I’m having the same issue. It’s so frustrating to me because the truck was built last week. I live between the plant and dealer.

My sticker says convoy but i did my first chat today to see if i could get more details.
I see the order in the In transit status .Shipped Rail - Railcar # TTGX994566 (Norfolk Southern Corp ). Current location as of Jun-03-2022 was Ramp 58, Melvindale, MI. I also see an ETA of Jul-03-2022 for delivery to your dealer.

I think i saw someposts about how to get updates on rail car locations. I feel like it’s sitting on a rail car that isn’t connected to a locomotive at this point sine its still basically in dearborn.

I think all the trucks produced at the Dearborn plant are labeled as Convoy since they are trucked to the rail yard and then shipped by rail to the rail yard closest to your location. I could see deliveries within a few hours of the plant being by convoy but even my order from northern NY is shown as convoy, that is an expensive truck ride with current diesel prices.

That is correct. KC plant has an onsite railyard, so they load some directly on trains, some on convoy trucks.

I checked with Ford Chat this morning and i've moved to "awaiting shipment"! They did push my estimated delivery range by 1 day, but its nice to know my truck is officially built.

Anyone else having trouble with the Ford build tracking website? I enter my order number and VIN, click accept, then the page just refreshes with those fields blank again. This seems to happen to me more often than not.

That is an alternative that works pretty well. The person who built was a customer and built it to track his truck. you are entering your order number and vin just be aware that its not a ford site. I didn't have any issues doing it but just wanted to let you know.

My truck is taking the least direct route from MI to Philly. Took a turn south last night from Harrisburg to Baltimore area and now hopefully heading north to the yard in Philly where they unload all the vehicles.

At that point it could sit for a while before the 1 hour trip to the dealership but they still have a few weeks to spare.
