02/13/2023 - Build Week

Well Ford's version of shipped must be a little different than mine. Four days later and it does not seem to have made the 9 hr trip to Grainger according to the tracker.

If you're a Dearborn build going to Granger your truck will most likely be routing through KC I believe. This trip can take 3-5 days by rail- and then I believe most of us Granger folks make the 3 hour trip to Des Moines via car carrier for the last leg. My truck has been sitting in the Norfolk Wetern Voltz railyard waiting to get on a carrier to Granger since last Tuesday, 2/21. Hopefully it will be leaving soon.

No wonder the delivery charges are so high. They take the long way around, oh well.

Just arrived at Granger today- so 10 days after arrival in KC.

My tracker is still at "In Production" so do the dates on the right, March 11th and 17th, mean when Ford expects the truck to ship out? Or is that supposed to be the delivery window? At this point I'm guessing that's my shipping estimate.

I got the "Your truck has shipped" email today from Ford with an ETA of 3/21-3/27. Tracker shows it shipped on 3/5/23. I'll have to try to track down some rail car information today...

The 11-17 dates should be the delivery window to the dealer. Mine are 10-14 March and that obviously won't happen because my King Ranch is in the same situation as yours. Still in production and sent offsite.

Thanks! Probably waiting on those shiny side badges...

Mine was ordered 12/4 and remains in production for week of 2/14. The order tracking page has not been updated since 2/17. The dealer claims it is waiting to be shipped and that Ford has been slow to update the order tracking website. I would have thought that this is all automated.

Yeah, the tracker and reality aren't synced up. Ford Chat told me I'm still awaiting shipping and had no rail car info. So who knows what's really going on...

Tracker is showing built on 3/8.

ETA updated to 2 April.

Another step in the right direction. Shipping seems to be the next hurdle. It is actually slower than the build.

 

[Aaron34]

So, even though I received a "Your truck has shipped" email on Tuesday, Granger confirmed it hasn't officially shipped yet. It's still Awaiting Shipment in Flat Rock, MI with an ETA of 3/21-3/27. The tracker still indicates Shipped with a 3/5 date underneath. No idea where that date comes from since it's not listed anywhere on the VIN Visibility Report Granger sent me just now...

Finally got the update from the tracker today. Moved to "Built" with a date of 3/9.
