A little bit of proactive information goes a very long way to satisfying even the customer with the longest wait. People just want to know they have not been forgotten and that their order is important. For most buyers this is the second largest purchase of their lives. Exactly! My dealer got a laugh when I told him that this truck was the same price as my first house. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My truck was built yesterday and the email I received skipped past the built and went right to shipped!? I don't think the tracker is updated yet though, it still says " in production ". Hoping it updates later today, still gonna call my sales rep. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirstFord22 Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 My girl is sitting at the CSX rail yard in Baldwin, FL only 141 miles away (not that I looked at the map or anything silly like that). So far the ETA has been overstated, but I’m not yet holding my breath. It’s good thing the CSX information line is automated because they would be tired of me by now!

Mine sat in Baldwin from Tuesday-Friday…and has been at the Jax yard since Friday…no truck yet for me…so it slows down when it gets to Jax to get unloaded and placed in a truck to your dealer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising. Tell them that wasn’t the agreement. If they insist try the BBB or the local news or the state consumer affairs office. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 15 hours ago, Monoman said: I'm aware of it. There is some speculation that Ford's new Model e division will use their own dealerships. Only time will tell but they could be testing the waters. I wouldn't blame them. I think you’ll see EVs built to order only, no dealer stock except “mannequins” used for test drives and loaners. You’ll order it from Ford at MSRP and select a dealer to complete the transaction, trade-in, financing, etc. With a fixed price and fees. Similar to X plan but a higher price. I think dealers will go along because MSRP is way more than they would normally get without supply chain shortages and they know they’re competing with Tesla, Rivian and others who sell that way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rancher-white250 Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 8 months to the day! Old Blue is really on fire. Excited to see progress but honestly PO’d that it’s taken this long, and that I won’t get the truck I ordered in order to avoid commodity restraints and get it built! However, you can take this as proof, if you complain and whine long enough…it doesn’t make a bit of difference. Ford is going to build it when they get ready and not a minute sooner. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frog_Legs Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 I’m sitting on an airplane right now instead of driving my (not built yet) truck over to the east coast. Ive got high hopes for the next western US trip scheduled for the first week of June. Original order 10/21 Scheduled build week currently 4/25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NH_Bulldog Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 (edited) I just found out that I am one step closer! I was able to get the railcar information and tracked it through CSX and lo and behold it arrived at the terminal ramp destination in Massachusetts at 10:50 am this morning. That gives them 4-5 days to unload and get it to my dealer, so my hopes are still alive! Edited March 30, 2022 by NH_Bulldog 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcritch3 Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 MIL's truck was built yesterday, my uncles truck has BCE codes today, now to hoping mine starts showing codes tomorrow! All three ordered at the same time and from the same dealer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I ordered and I am curious on which front springs it will have. I have read a bunch of posts here and still not sure what to expect. I am guessing either 5200 or 5600 springs. I saw one on the lot that had both camper pkg and snow plow prep pkg and it had 5600 springs; it was tall, hoping mine will be a little lower. I am wanting the truck as low as possible for better clearance for my fifth wheel. Thanks. This is what I have ordered as well, however it won't be built until the week of 5/2, so if you're still looking once I get it I can look, but who knows when that'll be....

Yeah I got STX as well. You may be waiting a while with 2 of the big hold ups on your order. Although I've seen a lot pushed through with those as well.

EB1959 Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 I have an estimated ship date between 3/30 and 4/5. I asked cyberman to do a track on it last week. His reply was Awaiting Shipment - Released Ford Kentucky Truck Plant 2, KY Mar-18-2022, 00:00 EDT . Does that mean the 5th wheel prep has been completed and is really just waiting to be loaded onto a truck at this point? I'm in east Tennessee so no rail for me.

I said " cyberman " looked up my trucks progress, and he said it's listed as Awaiting Shipment - Released . What I wanted to know is, RELEASED means it's "done" with the 5th wheel prep and is sitting waiting for a truck to transport it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
