Build week of 03/07/2022

[Severdog]

An update tonight. Truck has been sitting at the terminating railhead for the past 8 days awaiting final transport to dealer. Pretty frustrating but kind of like complaining about flight delays, it does no good. Hard to be patient when it’s just sitting there.

Got the magnaflow and paint protection film done in front. Now it’s complete and it looks amazing from every angle! Fuel mileage sucks badly compared to my AT4 Duramax but hoping it will get better with break in. Averaging 14-16 now hoping for 17-19 after 6-7k miles. I know the tires and wheels don’t help coupled with max tow 3.73.

Same for me since 30-Mar. Mine is coming to Texas. It'll be end of April now. Nearly a month and a half since building it. Clearly Ford has a logistics problem.

Add that to the list of order process, scheduling, manufacturing, and communication problems!

Very nice! Mine is on an intermediate arrival in Birmingham, hopefully makes it to New Orleans in the couple of days.

I know it has been a few weeks, but did you have updates between Bellevue, OH and Birmingham?

My last update had it departing Bellevue on Saturday night. I don't know if its held up for some reason, or it hasn't passed through an area with scanners.

Did you check both Norfolk Southern and CSX tracking systems ? I don't recall if we've asked you this before.

I have just used Norfolk Southern, I didn't even think to try CSX. ?‍

I only say this because I had a similar problem with a railcar that appeared to be "stalled" on NS, as I was apparently querying the wrong rail system. At least give it a try: 877.744.7279 options 2, 1, 3

You will have to slowly spell out the alpha portion of it. TTGX is "teeeeee teeeeeeee ggggeeeeee eeeeeeccccckkkkksssss" but you'll get the hang of it.

I was able to use the keypad for almost all of the tracking, but it showed the last update was from December and it was somewhere in Texas, so I'm back to calling NS every couple of hours.

Status changed today to checking the "shipped" bubble off and beginning "final prep." Looks like it took a wait time of 19 days at my "local" railhead in Dixiana, SC...and build date was 3/16, so almost six weeks to deliver from Dearborn. Rounding third and sliding for home...

Came in on Monday, prep today and detail tomorrow, picking up tomorrow afternoon. I’m sure that surprises are in store with the numbers, but the 4.5 month ordeal is finally over.

I do like that color!!! I'm sure you are gearing up for the potential battle with the dealer on price protection. I ran across this thread today. I've not listened to the video so I can not give an opinion. But, you may want to watch it before sitting down to cover final numbers.

I think my wait is almost over. I traced the Norfolk Southern rail car and it said it was in Hapeville, GA at 11:30 am on Monday, only 22 miles from my dealer. My dealer said, last week, that they expect it to arrive on May 2nd so things seem to be lining up. I plan to watch the price protection video above and make sure everything is ok there. I am not sure when my current private cash offers expire but hopefully they get extended AGAIN if they expire before the truck comes in. This all started April 20, 2021 believe it or not. Unreal.

Are these timelines normal ? Put a depot on a truck that is suppose to be here this week however noticed that it has been stuck in the shipping status for awhile now. Scheduled to be here this week but have doubts.
