8/29/2022 Build Week

FINALLY

I haven't been paying too much attention to all the happy posts lately because I'm childish and petty... how long have people been waiting between seeing that it's built and shipping / delivery?

Mine took a month to get to NE Ohio via rail.

Did it take a while for it to say shipped, or did it say shipped for a month? I just got the email that mine shipped, estimated delivery Oct 23-29

It's in transit now, anyone know if you can you track a railcar on Canadian national railways?

No clue. Didnt check that very often. I was trackin via rail link. Rail sucks though. Trains go to rail yard to railyard, with a delay of a day or 2 at each one. Then it sat at the final yard for a week waiting to be unloaded from the railcar. Took about a week to get to the dealer after it was unloaded......dealer is 9 miles from railyard.

Yes you can call 1-800-361-0198. Wait to speak to a service representative and ask them is they can give you a location of your car number. I think they are only available during business hours though.

Convoy here as well and I am at 11 days. Ford said it will be there between Oct 6th and Oct 12th.

Talked to the costumer service today. They said my truck will end up on the train eventually. In this case it’s probably safe to assume it is sitting at the rail yard waiting for the ride. They also pushed my delivery date by few more days. Did you get any updates?

Well sh*t!

To ensure your complete satisfaction, we will require additional time before your 2022 F-150 LARIAT is delivered to Granger Motors, Inc.. Your vehicle’s previous estimated delivery range of October 6, 2022, and October 12, 2022, has been updated to between October 18, 2022, and October 24, 2022.

Your dealer will contact you to arrange the delivery and pickup details regarding your new vehicle.

Thank you.

Awesome! Have a safe trip back home. Everything went well at Granger’s?

Tiring trip but I made it. I didn’t really get to sleep so I was up about 36hrs total. Granger was great, what you hear and come to expect becomes reality. Signed 3 papers which took all of about 6 minutes. Everyone was super friendly start to finish.

My dad made the trip with me and he’s old school so he was in shock too. I’ve been trying to explain to him the process and he’s telling me no way etc etc. On the ride back he’s asking me if I had to haggle with them and once again I’m back to square one explaining you get a price, you pay that price.

Overall pretty cool experience even though it all happened in a span of like 45 minutes. A majority of that being my fault because I missed the email asking the exact time I would be there so I surprised them a little. But Chip jumped on it for me and got my truck cleaned up and ready to go and followed it with a pretty good walk through of all the features. Spent a majority of our waiting time playing with the lariat lightning in the showroom so yeah, 10/10.

That is great news.

Mine arrived to Granger in roughly 3-4 days after delivery to Kansas City. Hopefully yours gets there quick as well. I will be at Granger next week getting my truck.

I was "Received" at ramp 6P at 10:56 on 10/10, but completely different railcar (also from Melvindale), they must have ours staged near each other for convoy to Granger.

There were a few Tremors delivered there yesterday, that also shipped last week, so with any luck we might get up there later this afternoon.

I hope so because 18-24 is cutting it too close for me.

Does OrderTrack have a magical way of k owing the rail at # as it indicates on their webpage? Or is that only available via Ford or the dealer?

OrderTrack cannot do rail tracking

Does it auto populate if it’s convoy?
