Dedonut Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 So if my sticker date says 1/31, it's being built today? And I just found mkztracker and asked to be added to the list along with all you folks. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedonut Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 It would appear, if I'm reading this right, that it showed up on Etis, not on shipping date, but on the build date. "Here is mine SMSGT; Ordered - Oct/2012 - Reserve Package - Bordeaux exterior/Dune Interior Oct/2012 - Jan/2013 - TBD NO COMMUNICATIONS 26 Jan 2013 / Scheduled to week 2/4/2013 28 Jan 2013 / Scheduled to day 2/7/2013 30 Jan 2013 / Sent to Production to Plant Ford Hermosillo Assembly, SO Feb-7-2013 ETA Feb-18-2013 31 Jan 2013 / Window sticker; date at the bottom is 1/30/13 http://fordlabels.webview.biz/webviewhybrid/WindowSticker.aspx?vin=3LN6L2LUXDR807932 8 Feb 2013 / Official build Date (ETIS) 8 Feb 2013 / Awaiting Shipment Origin Received - 01l03 (Allied Systems Ltd ) Ramp 54, Hermosillo Asy, SO Feb-08-2013, 01:00 MT *Feb-18-2013" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tanner83 Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Actually Day after build date..... Build day was 7 FEB, showed up on ETIS on 8 FEB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedonut Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 I just went back and looked yet again. So if my window sticker was generated 01/31/13, and the build date is about 7 days then shouldn't it have been built 02/07 or 02/08 and be on Etis by now?

xgman Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 The card came FedEx, not USPS, did you check the place your deliveries are usually placed? Do you have the window sticker? Have the sticker and car should be built today, but no fed ex anything. Guess I'm out of luck. I wish I knew who to call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are likely 2/9 with most of us then or either ETIS may show up Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatonka Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I think it is less about order date, and more about production date. So it appears that when MKZ says "scheduled to day" that is the actual day that the car completes its build. The next day(so for me that was the 7th) my car information came up on ETIS. Also the next day(8th) we all received an update from MKZ and mine said Awaiting Shipment which tells me it is either on the ramp awaiting loading or going somewhere other than the plant. If my hopes are confirmed it means it is sitting on the ramp waiting to be loaded on a rail car. Tanner any word on movement of your car? I haven't seen/heard anything.

Serraph Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Etis is finally loading up all the vehicle summary for me. So about 5 days after build date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgman Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Etis is finally loading up all the vehicle summary for me. So about 5 days after build date. where is your car today? Is it going to Flat Rock or local inspection or is it on the way to your dealer already? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serraph Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 where is your car today? Is it going to Flat Rock or local inspection or is it on the way to your dealer already? It was build 2-09-13 and was sent to Flat Rock, I have ETA date of 3-04-13. Which is like almost a month after it was built. Not sure why it would take 2-3 weeks to inspect unless something is wrong and they have to take the car apart( highly unlikely). Seems every one else is getting their car 2 weeks earlier not including the ones that were inspected in Hermosillo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you should get yours by the end of next week unless something is off we don't know about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not, confirmed with dealer and Lincoln that it won't get to the dealer until 3-4-13 unless things change. I hope it gets faster but we'll see. Haven't seen any MKZ here yet but there was one sold at my dealer. Seems you have an ETA date of 2-25, wait til tomorrows update from MKZtracker and see where it is. I think it will be on rails by then heading to Flat Rock for the final inspections. Edited February 13, 2013 by Serraph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you should get yours by the end of next week unless something is off we don't know about. Once on the rail, it takes right at 1 week to get from Hermosillo to Markham, IL. Mine left of the 7th and scheduled to arrive on the 14th. It could be a day early as it is only 35 miles away from destination and leaves tonight.

Dedonut Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Stentgraf: "I don't recall someone has probably already stated this but there appears to be a corollary between when the window sticker is produced and when the car is built. The sticker seems to be produced first about seven calendar days prior to when the build date shows in ETIS. To further this premise it appears that from the sticker date to delivery takes 27 days and the delivery from the ETIS date takes about 20 days. Ah deductive reasoning you have to love it. I wonder if I should have been a detective instead of a computer geek." My sticker date is Jan-31-2013, my build date was Feb. 08 and back on Jan. 19th in the MKZ Build Date Forum I estimated my car would arrive at the dealer Feb. 26 to 28.

Dedonut Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) We need to start a new Forum on Railcar Routes and Tracking with all the work Tanner and Sarg have done. I've added a bit on No. CA. tanner83 Posted 03 February 2013 - 03:09 AM Hi Guys I spotted this over in another thread, thought I would post here. I guess at some point in time we will get a Rail Car assignment for our cars. It appears you can track the train this way... Here are instructions that I copied from a prior post and saved to an email in case I needed it for my shipment, have seen comments from others that yes it works, so give it a try. Here's how to track your ETTX railcar.1. Call CSX at 1-800-235-23522. When prompted for location or weight, press "1" on your phone for location.3. When prompted for the car initials, say ETTX then wait for the next prompt. OR key in 32-81-81-92 (for ETTX)(letter and position on your phone)4. When prompted for the car number, say or key in your 6-digit ETTX car number5. When prompted for next car say DONE. tanner83 Posted 09 February 2013 - 04:31 AM Ok, I think I confirmed my theory SMSGT, I called UP's automated number at 800 255 4915, follow the prompts to trace and then say clearly ETTX810011. When I did this I got Departure County Line Feb 9th (so today), en Route, Marcomm, IL, ETA Feb 14th. I am not sure I got the city in Illinois correct hard to make out. Anyway I think that is the deal guys. When the cars leave Hermasillo they are initially on CSX. When they hit the US(probably in Nogales, AZ) they are dropped off and Union Pacific picks them up. So initially you will call CSX to track from Hermasillo to Nogales and then UP from Nogales to where ever(but it may go back to CSX east of the Mississippi). SMSgt B Posted 09 February 2013 - 06:37 PM Trying to figure out specifically what path our car is traveling on its way to IL, I came across this weather station map that you can use to possibly track your car's path. I noticed these weather stations were along railways and they also had codes like UP675; maybe UP stands for United Pacific. I took the last point where my car was and started tracing it out all the way to Chicago by only using paths listed as UP. Here is what I came up with and here is the link I'm talking about. I can't believe I'm doing this stuff on a Sat night; but it's fun. http://mesowest.utah...urrTimeChecked= Station Code Location EFAW UP308 DURAN UP303 VAUGHW UP968 DAVIS UP300 SANTA ROSA, NM NSTNOS UP355 ARVID UP273 TCMCRI UP441 TUCUMCARI, NM OBAR UP377 TEXAS LINE ROMERO UP453 KING UP458 DALHART KDHT DALHART, TX CHBRNL UR096 CONLEN UP296 STEVNS UP415 STRATFORD, TX TXHOMA UP424 TEXHOMA, OK GOODWL UP320 GOODWELL, OK GUYMON KGUY GUYMON, OK OPTIMA UP383 TYRONE, OK LIBERAL KLBL LIBERAL, KS SHMRCK UP407 HOBART UP332 DW9907 BLOOM DW9907 GRNBRG UP323 GREENSBURG, KS WELFRD UP430 PRATT MUN KPYY PRATT, KS TURON UP423 PRTRGT UP394 HUTCHINSON MUN KHUT HUTCHINSON, KS GRVLND UP324 MCPHERSON KMPR MCPHERSON, KS GALVA UP317 DURHAM UP304 HERNTN UP330 HERINGTON, KS LATMIR UP349 VOLLND UP428 MAPLHL UP360 TOPEKA, KS GRANTI UP250 BUCKI UP091 LINWDL UP054 FORLKI UP020 ETON UP911 KANSAS CITY, MO BUCKNR UP904 MYRICK UP926 BLOSER UP901 MRSHLL UP925 MARSHALL, MO BLKWTR UP900 BNVILE UP902 BOONVILLE,MO OVERTN UP928 ALGOA1 UP895 JEFFERSON CITY, MO BONML1 UP903 WSNTN1 UP936 WASHINGTON, MO GRSMT1 UP915 GRAY SUMMIT, MO EURKA1 UP912 EUREKA, MO GARD UP318 ST.
