galangg Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Completely unofficial opinion here ....but I would say that you are probably looking at a Fri. pickup at your dealership ... :-) John Mine was in Walbridge Ohio, last Wednesday ........ (mine should be ready to pick up tonight) Confirmed for tonight yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galangg Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Just got the call...my car is at the dealership!!! Will probably be picking it up this afternoon Sweet! Can't wait to see more pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galangg Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 SIx MKZs were delivered to my dealership Wed. One of them was my pre-order which went out the next day. Lincoln is finally releasing them and the newest round of pre-order folks won't experience what happened here … I hope! I want Lincoln to succeed and to be able to deliver the quality concierge customer service they've promised. And dealers are probably waiting to see if things are finally leveling out. When the MKZ backlog clears, reliable communication should resume. One only hopes, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will probably be picking it up this afternoon Congrats man, hope it gets to you soon!! No word yet. I'd figure I'd wait until this afternoon CA time to call LCS again and see if there's an update. If you all are getting your cars delivered, I can't believe that mine isn't far behind. Tho it seems like all youall's went up to Michigan while mine was smart and stayed in Mexico. . .

Dedonut Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Kimbar, are you near either of these dealers? Roseville or Fairfield Lincoln? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedonut Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I just scheduled and received confirmation of my Lincoln Makers gift. I chose 2 nights at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis, a luxury hotel. Early check-in, complimentary breakfast for 2 guests both days, feather pillows, extra towels, and a $200. AmEx gift card good anywhere they take AmEx. That was a really pleasant surprise.

sweetmelissa14 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 So, I need this car to arrive because I'm really obsessed here... I called Union Pacific Railroad Customer Service since I now have a railcar number (thank you MKZ), and do you know what they told me? FORD is the only party they can release details of that railcar to....for security purposes!!!! aaarrrrgggghhh So, my husband says to call our salesman tomorrow, give him the car number and let him call them! Love it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love it.... Your mistake was talking to someone. You need to look at my post regards tracking cars on railroads, and follow instructions in that post. I was able to track from Mexico all the way to when it offloaded the railcar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love it.... I know it's hard to think this way..... But be patient a little longer! That day you drive it off the lot will make it all worth it! I was trying to be calm driving home ... But I couldn't help it! It's a great feeling those first couple of days! I remember Tanner saying the same thing to a bunch of us after he endured what seemed like an impossible wait! 2 months and 3 days seemed like forever for me, but keep in mind others waited much longer! I'm pretty sure you'll get yours within 10 days! Hang in there .... Ill post photos and more of my first impressions over the next few days! (I'll do my part To keep your obsession ratcheted up ... After all it will make your delivery date all that much better! John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
