Only way I knew it left KC was my FordPass got denied.

Got it, thanks. Checked with Chip, my truck still at KC, you got lucky. Yours got to KC after mine and they picked up yours first and mine still sitting there. Updated VVR shows Oct 31 delivery but I doubt it at this point. Ordered Nov 2021 and still waiting for this damn truck

Wow, that's a long time. Thought I was bad off ordering in January. Mine showed 31st on VVR as well. Not sure how they chose which ones to take.

So, dealer said my truck is at Junction point Indiana en route to Portland Oregon. It’s at least moving!

What should I look out for?

I'm extremely OCD and failed to notice several things. My advise, look it over with an extremely fine tooth comb.

My truck has a dent on the drivers side back top corner of the cab. Looking for a PDR to fix it now. I also have a big deep scratch in one of my headlights. Granger is awesome so they are taking care of these issues even though I'm in Texas. I will get them fixed here, pay for them and then Granger will reimburse me.

I took a ton of pictures before even moving the truck at Granger which came in handy for myself (Granger never even questioned my email showing these two issues) because I was one, kicking myself for not looking good enough and two because they also show the issues.

I've found several runs in the clear cote that I can fix myself. I have a couple of small interior scratches I'm going to try to address, some trash in the paint and the rear Platinum appliqué looks warped at the top and bottom but I'm hoping that's just the adhesive and I'm planning to take it off to do some custom paint work on it anyway.

Well new change of events. So our truck was built in July and has been in the "awaiting shipment" status since then. We were finally able to get an update (after me emailing every exec I could find) that the reason our truck hasnt moved is because they lost the key and no one filed a missing key report so it has been sitting at the rail yard in Dearborn the entire time. ??‍ They filed a missing key report on Friday and said they are going to do everything they can to expedite it.
Fingers crossed we finally see some movement this week.

This has me wondering if something similar happened to mine. My truck shipping 7/22 and STILL has not made it to the dealership after 101 DAYS! So far no one seems to know why

@BIGSTUF you are Granger right? I mentioned it to Chip and he was very familiar. He said he put a track on it because it is such an unusual case. Maybe damaged?

Yeah, Chip reached out to Ford to open an inquiry on what happened to it. I also have been in contact with a Ford exec who is doing the same thing…crazy

 

[Jimigiller1510]

Can anyone tell me where this rail car is? TTGX711914

Dealer said it’s at junction point in IN? I assume that’s a hub of some sort where it may start heading west?

Any help as always is appreciated.

Well, I FINALLY got the call from Chip this morning…PROOF OF LIFE! I’m gonna go pick it up next week

Still patiently waiting, getting close to 1 year @Ford Motor Company. Just wondering, does anyone ordered prior to me and still waiting?

Not even close here. I ordered in April.
Currently stuck in the shipped status for about a month.
My truck is currently rusting in Dearborn making zero progress. I didn’t really pay too much attention to the production delays but now I’m getting really pissed off with this joke of company. Ford literally don’t give to ?? about their costumers.
I don’t expect them to magically teleport my truck to the dealer but GMAFB. If Amazon can track every one of their millions of packages day in and day out, I don’t understand how Ford can not come up with some sort of meaningful tracking updates of their in transit 6000 lb pile of junk!

I just hope they put more effort in to the quality of their product than their costumer care.
