Ford chat gave an ETA of 12/26 which I’m sure it’s gonna be pushed back due to the weather. I’m not too concerned about when picking it up. I don’t really need it until end of January.
Just got the notice that my truck made it to Granger.

My truck has a blend date of 11/12/22 and it's been stuck in production since then. Guess the production hell wait is just starting on my end.

**Tracking Tip** Alright Team- OCD taking over here. I reached out to my salesperson last week to see what they saw on there end for ETA/tracking info. He was able to provide me with some info via Ford Order Fulfillment Vehicle Visibility Page. Best piece on info on the screen was the CSX Railcar#.

I dialed CSX (877-744-7279) and after a few prompts it asks for you to say and enter your car #. It then spit back tracking info on my particular rail car. It left Ohio this AM and is estimated to arrive in East Brookfield, MA on Jan 3rd. I am in Southern Maine so only a couple hour semi ride up from there once it can get loaded on a truck. Thought I would share for those that are coming via CSX and are able to get a railcar#. Cheers

over the holiday I watched a movie called "Pepsi, where's my jet" I think we need a new version called "Ford, where's my Truck"

I am still stuck at the "built" stage since 11/20.

I wonder if some of our individual issues is just "where" these dealers are located. I notice you're in Nashville, mine goes to NC. Granger of Iowa seems to have a relatively steady stream of deliveries. Maybe some routes are just clogged, or spread-out, or overwhelmed... or whatever.

I’m in NH. Mine was supposedly dropped off the railcar two weeks ago in East Brookfield. I’ve been waiting ever since. My dealer says it’s up to the trucking company to put it on a hauler when ever they feel like it.

Reading elsewhere that we should plan on it taking 20-21 days. Apparently Auto Transporters have 21 days to deliver the new cars before they are penalized by Ford. If they can’t get it delivered in that time they hire a contractor to move it.

That’s interesting.

I think the real bottleneck is the time it takes to physically load cars/trucks on transports or trains.
So Ford can crank them out as fast as the want, but if it takes all day to load a transport I dont see the point.
But I agree, obviously dealers and locations matter. my dealer is near Nashville, but no where near the volume leader in Nashville. So in hindsight, the convenience of a close dealer may not be as convenient as choosing a high volume dealer even if it means traveling to pick up the truck.

I will ride it out for now. but if my order fails to arrive in the next month I will be looking into Granger even if it means another 6 month delay.
