Well, the delays continue even when not under fords control…. Estimated delivery date shifted to the right, shocker.

@Evanl do you know the location of the rail yard in the city. I looked at google maps and seen 4 or 5 yards. Might go up and look around this weekend.

I hope ours didn’t get mixed up since we both ordered with similar options

Only an hour or so south and there has been multiple deliveries all this week with vehicles that were on the same rail load as mine. They didn’t get anything yesterday and only got one truck in from Mesquite, TX rail yard.

Here is my timeline as of today for those that want to know. Does anyone know the protocol for missing vehicles? Do I wait 24-48 hours after my expected delivery date to file a missing vehicle report? F450 Platinum with 98.6% of all options, Antimatter Blue Metallic.

Billingsley, they have been great for us well over a decade. We even bought our two Rams from them.

Still nothing….

Don’t mention that date as it has nothing to do with your build. This has been discussed in extreme detail earlier on in this thread@ice-capades covered this exact topic. It is internal to ford when ever that is info or something for internal tracking. Again it has nothing to do with the progress or lack there of progress your truck gets in the production process.

Yes! Then we could get our break in mileage completed before towing.

Still nothing on the expected delivery of my truck. I am beginning to wonder it it is actually at the destination rail yard. It was supposedly unloaded last week on 3 December, can’t imagine that many vehicles came into oklahoma that they couldn’t have already brought it down. I am going to assume this truck is lost and I probably won’t see it until after the holidays. Notch another negative mark on Fords belt. It has been 231 days since I ordered, and 160 days since job #1. Oh and this is still counting.

I called CSX automated phone tracing in the morning and evening and copied the information.

(Waiting for unload) * Railcar Unloaded - 6 December, OKC @ 19:59.(waiting on car hauler load out) this is nerve racking, the darn truck is 45 minutes from me.

Mine arrived at the destination rail yard Friday December 3rd, was unloaded Monday December 6th and just about every variety of ford trucks, cars & SUVs have been showing up to my dealer. I’ll bet you get yours before I do.

Get with your salesman to pull the rail car number from the vehicle visibility screen (.ex “ABCD123456”) Call the automated CSX phone line 877-SHIPCSX option 2, then option 1, & option 3. Then Say “location”, will ask for car initial (all the letters in the car .ex “ABCD”) then will ask for car number (“123456”) Then you will state “done” and the current location will be stated. Here is my rail tracking.. * Departed - 26 November, Kentucky @ 19:06. * Received - 28 November, E. St. Louis, IL @ 16:45. * Arrived - 28 November, JCT PT. E.

(Waiting for unload and final destination carrier)

Now the hype is real… truck just arrive at final rail destination about an hour from me. Soon I will have some juicy photos for you all.

I think I am partly responsible for bringing up this topic that has turned into an utter nightmare for this thread.

Here is my rail tracking as complete as I can report it. * Departed - 26 November, Kentucky @ 19:06. * Received - 28 November, E. St. Louis, IL @ 16:45. * Arrived - 28 November, JCT PT. E. St. Louis, IL @ 19:45. * Received - 29 November, Gateway yard, IL @ 13:43. * Departed - 30 November, Independence, MO @ 1:08. * Arrived - 30 November, Herrington, KS @ 11:15. * Departed - 1 December, Newton, KS @ 18:12. * Departed - 1 December, Whitewater, KS @ 19:30. * Arrived - 2 December, Wichita, KS @ 00:39. almost here.

Well folks it’s been a while since I’ve updated my status. I am currently tracking my truck moving along on the rail car from town to town. It was shipped out of Kentucky on 26 November and currently got to Wichita, KS last night around midnight. The remainder of the journey should be quick and I think I will be able to touch it early next week.

I feel your pain, I was amazed also seeing some that have already got their trucks that ordered just last month. I ordered 20 April and was holding onto the AS longer than I should have otherwise I’d still be waiting.

Got an early morning shipping notification

Must be nice to not have had to wait so long for your build. There seems to be confusion as to when this was built by my dealer. We thought it was at the rail ramp on the 18th. But I guess the tonneau cover and bedliner held it up.

Happy Thanksgiving to all… got me an update early this morning via email from Ford. The struggle bus is almost done.

Not in my case, according to vehicle visibility is was sent to the rail ramp on the 18th of November and has been sitting there getting delayed a few more times. Estimated delivery to the dealer was 24 November, 30 November and for now it is at 14 December. Anymore delays I am sure I won’t see it until after the new year. I’d at least like to drive it once in the year it was built, is that too much to ask for a truck that has been built since the 17th of this month.

Thanks
