Dealer says I’m still a solid 3 weeks out. Plus, not all DIOs come with the truck from the factory. Some are ordered via a third party and SHOULD be at the dealer when the truck arrives but not always and kind of out of their control.

The wait continues.

CSX says the railcar with my truck has left Michigan and will arrive in Nashville Monday. Not sure how it gets from there to my dealer in NW Alabama.

I feel like your truck and my truck are racing each other.

My tracker reset back to Order Confirmed today with a Last Updated date of 6/2. I talked with Ford Chat and got a railcar number and a quoted ETA of 6/12-6/18. Will see what else comes from the rail info!

Edit: Railcar released by Ford by not departed Dearborn.

Forgot to circle back, I've had the truck for a week now and loving it. Really glad I switched from carbonized grey to avalanche.

I'm in Michigan and the truck was "at the dealers storage facility" by Friday before memorial day weekend.

Still no incentives on 2024s in my area.

I like it! This morning my dealer said mine should be here next week. The rail car it's on was 150 miles from me yesterday.

Congratulations on your new ride! We agree, the Avalanche color looks great. Thanks for sharing, J! ?

You're going to love it. I think it looks better in person, avalanche seems like a tricky color to photograph.

My girls wanted avalanche when I was leaning carbonized gray so I asked a friend to settle the debate and he agreed with them. Glad he did!

FINALLY!

CSX had no status on my rail car so I just gave up for a few days. Was going to contact my dealer via email today but thought I'd check one last time.

My truck arrived via rail to National City California this morning at 12:13. It has already been unloaded.

Dealer previously said it can take one - five days to get to him once it is off the train and then another day or two for final prep. So maybe I can take delivery next week.

XXLT. great looking truck but the first thing that came to me was the old song about “it’s so bright I gotta wear shades”. Gotta love it!!

Congrats on the truck and the quick delivery.

The Ford Tracker just updated my truck to Final Preparation this morning.

Waiting for word from my dealer and hoping to take delivery this Sunday.

DOAH!!!

Tracker says my truck is in Final Prep, dealer just told me my truck is not there yet. He will let me know.

I'm hoping his computer just hasn't been updated yet.
