@JerryLZ did you have your railcar #? I can't remember if you said you did or not. I reached out to Chip at Granger and he gave me: Shipped Convoy - Convoy # 2457805 (Vehi-ship Llc ) Ramp 58, Melvindale, MI.

I did, I waited a bit after it went into shipped status and asked ford chat for my rail car number. Then I called the hotline like 3 times a day its all automated which is nice. Got to the point I had all the numbers memorized. It took 3 days to get to KC.

Ill throw this out there for future reference since it will probably ship Norfolk Southern as well.
- Dial 800-635-5768
- Press 2 on the first set of options, Press 2 on the second set of options
- Then you enter the railcar Letters, Mine was AOK so 265 press # at the end
- Then you enter the railcar numbers, press # at the end
- Wait and listen

Sounds like you got a truck ride to the rail yard and it hasn't updated yet? Mine moved to shipped at midnight and I didn't check on it until like noon the next day so I guess I missed the first convoy step.

Mine shipped on 9/21 via rail from Melvindale, MI and arrived in Kansas City, MO on 9/24.
Granger has not said it was delivered yet and I got an updated VVR this morning.

Thats about on track with how mine was. 9/24 was when I got unloaded in KC and waited for a truck ride. Never saw a VVR yet just my own detective work using ford chat and the trackers.

I'm wondering if my truck is delivered but they have not checked it in yet.

I don't know, maybe they got a lot in? I'm not sure how it works. I show that its there but it hasn't been mentioned to me yet and I am still doing some back and forth with finance to get paperwork going.

I called Chip at Granger and he said they got about 50 trucks in today you might call him although my ford tracker changed to delivered before I called Chip

You know this automatically makes us members of the 8/29/22 build week alumi ?

For some strange reason my Ford tracker has always been slow to update. That sounds about right, I’ve heard they tend to get a lot at once.

By the way I am flying in to Des Moines on 10/11 arriving late in the afternoon so I will be going to Granger Ford first thing Wednesday morning. anyone else on that schedule

 

[JerryLZ]

on the bright side I learned there was a extra $500 on top of the $1000 special order. Pretty happy about that. Thats the bed rug I was bitching about if you want to look at it that way.
