Savagedo Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Mine shows the same as yours….. hoping to see a build day date soon on the spreadsheet or an email saying it’s built. They’ve been pretty consistent at 8 - 9 days fromn sent to plant date to build date. Mine was sent to plant on 8/10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exciting! Did yours just get built today? Do you know if yours is being shipped rail or convoy, and what state? I'm very nosy because I'm about to burst with excitement that ours is on the schedule this week! ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fingerlakes Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 From what I can tell the build date was 8/10 and then had to have spray-in bedliner done. Being shipped by rail and eventually will come to dealer near Syracuse NY. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMBKaren41 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 You give me hope! We're near Buffalo and ours is also coming by rail. I saw rail on our sticker and figured it would be a month before we saw it truck. The other day, we got stopped by the slowest moving freight train and were cracking up imagining that's how slow our truck would be moving from Kentucky. The last time we ordered a truck was in 2013 and it shipped super fast by convoy (let's face it.... The whole process was completely painless, less than 2 month from start to finish, rebates galore ?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I gather from ice-capades info, all vehicles coming to the north east come by rail to NJ and then by truck to dealer. I've got no rebates or PCO's at all for this truck and by golly I've certainly tried. Bought over 25 Ford's in 35 years and nothing. Kinda pi**es my off a little.

My last pin ever because my grandfather who was a Ford retiree (basically hired right off a ship from Germany at Ellis Island and worked at Ford for about 40 years as an oiler) passed away last August. Our pin will expire before we will get the truck, but the dealer is honoring the z plan pricing because they kind of dropped the ball on the 2021 we tried to order and it wasn't accepted by Ford for whatever reason. ?♀️ So I think that makes us technically eligible for a PCO although I'm sure we won't be lucky enough to get one either. ? I'm sure Ford already knows they have me hook, line, and sinker after the number of vehicles we've purchased over the years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingerlakes Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Just found out our F450 was unloaded from the rail car at 11:30am in Selkirk NY about 175 miles from our dealer. Almost home! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikre8kos4u Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Well I finally gave in and had the AS removed, under strong advisement from my dealer. We’ll see if it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldcupshooter Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 My 450 Platinum was ordered 6/18, had a build date of 8/16, it was actually built 8/23 and arrived at my dealer TODAY. I’m going to pick her up tomorrow. No adaptive steering. No sunroof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fingerlakes Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Lucky you! Congratulations! As I said in above post, ours was unloaded from the rail-car on Monday 175 miles from our dealer and it still hasn't made it there. I could have transported it myself if they would let me. Enjoy your new truck! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, yours might have been on a train to Lordstown Ohio, I know F350mike's truck was on a train that went there and he is expecting his to arrive this week to the dealer in Amherst.

Dewbs Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Waiting for the truck to make its 90 mile journey to the dealer. Was scheduled for today now it’s pushed back to 8/30 and the dealerships here are closed on Sundays ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a dream several weeks ago that the delivered date on the tracker said 8/31 (yes, I was dreaming about the truck being delivered.... I have serious issues ???). I guess we'll see if my premonition becomes true. Maybe you'll get a surprise call tomorrow! Fingers crossed for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an Atlas Blue 450 Platinum on order with AS since 6-26. Dealer keeps telling me they haven't been notified of any constraints on AS for our region and to keep it on. So I'm still waiting and hoping that maybe it will get scheduled soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
