12/5/22 - Build Week - MY 23

[Ruger31]

Circle for "shipping" was just filled in today and my truck was delivered to my dealership! My original date for delivery was 01/16-01/22 by rail so looks like it's gonna be right on time.

Hope everyone else starts getting good news too and we all get a good start to our New Years.

Got an email yesterday saying delivery is moving out to 25-30th, asked my salesman for an update and more detailed information if he has any.

Still on chip hold, but the system says it expects the truck to be delivered to Houston the week of 1/28. We shall see!

Excited to hear we have some shipping movements from this build week. Still no news on my end though ?

Nice! So it took a little over 3 weeks from built date to deliver. Not bad at all. Congrats to you!

Got to pick it up today! My dealer said it was the fastest order he had seen built in the last couple years so I must know someone at Ford (nope) or be really lucky/it has to be a good sign for the factories.

I absolutely love my truck and and it's everything I could want (as someone who doesn't love bells and whistles, I.E. seated seats) . They tried to pull some type of BS on me at the dealer during finance about not locking in the offer at time of purchase (4.9% APR on F150's) without a "certificate". I argued my way out of it but it left me with a bit of bitter taste.

Either way, now the deal is done and I'm happy with my rate and truck! Happy New Years!

Term length for the 4.9?

Any other updates on trucks from this build week? I know I'm right there with everyone (most) in the weekly waiting/wondering game but not a peep in the last 6 weeks since 'built' on 12/5. Mine has to travel pretty far East to VT and to a relatively small local dealer ... not sure if that makes any difference?

reach out to your dealer, they should be able to provide you with an updated ETA. Not that they will meet said ETA but at least you have a new time to reach out to them.

Right now chat told me that my truck is at Blue Island, IL. Been there since Thursday. Let the ship waiting game begin. ?

 

[Indy443]

Chat just told me I'm waiting transport at Ramp 59 and upped my new ETA to 1/16-1/22. Guessing this gets pushed 3-4 more times at least.

 

[Hotboyz]

They haven’t pushed my eta back just yet. They actually moved it up but I’m sure it’ll get missed.

@Blackout150 question. With bnsf do we get a different rail car number or do we use the same one from Canadian? I never got a new number.

It’s the same railcar for the whole trip. I had 3 train company’s and same railcar

Hmm. I tried putting those letters and numbers in that link you gave me and says no record. It hasn’t moved from blue island yet so maybe that’s why. I’ll keep checking it. Thanks man

I couldn’t get it to work either. Relied on vin view. Some people have said that the csx rail service works. Try this.
CSX
1. Call the CSX 1-800-235-2352
2. When prompted for location or weight, press "1" on your phone for location.
3. When prompted for the car initials, say CN (or whatever initials you have) then wait for the next prompt.
4. When prompted for the car number, say 907048 (or whatever your number is)
5. When prompted for next car say DONE
6. That's it; enjoy your updated status report.
