The wait is brutal. Is it worth the aggravation? I would say yes. 9+ months before it arrived and limited information given by the dealership once it was shipped. The ride is brutal but in the end run, I couldn’t have chosen a better truck. Hang in there fellas!

The beast finally arrived today. Got the call this morning. Incredible truck. ordered 09/04/2021 built 05/03/2021 delivered today!

Ouch!!

mine is going on week three sitting at the ramp waiting on a truck to pick it up. It’s frustrating for sure.

Yeah both of those guys are life savers during these difficult times. Ford marketing is super helpful but I just hate calling them but my truck is 75 miles from me right now and my sales manager just plain sucks and won't call me back.

Many of us are experiencing the same treatment. My salesman at Mark FIcken Ford in Charlotte has been great but the sales manager sucks! My truck has been sitting for two weeks at the rail drop off point and I called Ford marketing today and finally got some info. Crickets from my dealership sales manager. I let Ford marketing know that also.

Mine shipped out May 04 and still has not arrived at the dealership. Those times may be accurate.

Yes, it’s been in Columbia since the 20th. Thanks for the info, gives me a little hope that it may arrive this week.

Sucks I have three rollbacks ready to go get it

Oh mine has gone as far as it's going to go by rail. It's sitting in a lot awaiting a car hauler to bring it to the dealership. That's where things have gone silent.

What does the "cleared for movement" mean and how do you find that information out?. Mine is at the destination rail facility and I'm assuming waiting for transport to the dealership in Charlotte NC.

Man this hurry up and wait while my truck sits at a rail yard is killing me. Up until now I had some idea of the progress of what was going on with the truck. Now nothing. What are the average wait times that vehicles sit at the yard before being delivered to the dealership for those of you guys that have taken delivery?

I called the dealership and got the rail car number then called CSX and used the automated trace they offer. Friday evening the trace stated the car was emptied.

my rail car is showing empty so hopefully it won’t sit long. My buddy is buying my F-150 platinum from me and I think he is more excited than I am. The nine month wait has been brutal

what part of the country do live in? Mine was shipped the same day as yours and sitting in Columbia SC awaiting transport to Charlotte.

Thanks for the detailed response Ice.

My truck reached its rail destination yesterday and the car is showing empty. Is there anyway to find out when it will be picked up by a hauler? Would the sales manager have this information or is it just a hurry up and wait kind of thing?

Got my shipped email this morning with a delivery date of May 21-27. F-450 Platinum Star White ordered 09/04/2021 Confirmed 09/06/2021 VIN assigned 01/07/2022 eight bumps In production 05/02/2022 built 05/03/2022 Shipped 05/09/2022

Got my “built” email this morning with an ETA delivery to the dealership between May 21-27. F-450 Platinum Star White ordered 09/04/2021 confirmed 09/06/2021 eight bumps went into production May 02 built May 03

My credit union won't even touch my truck. They say they don't give loans for 450's because they consider it a commercial vehicle. I was like you have to be kidding me!!

I have a ton of numbers under the BCE section, is this the modules? There is like a 100 of them. Looks like this 7B1-01-01 5000 5C61 26ED 7B1-01-02 F211 0AC8 7B1-02-01 101A 88FF 9C08

Nice!!

Finally got put into production. Ordered 09/04/2021 F-450 Platinum. Had about 7 bumps and she went into production today.

Im assuming that what you would find there is the same from the tracking website or do you see it before it’s added to the tracking site?

Thanks for the responses fellas.
