RA4K, Barnes (UP), which is the Barnes Union Pacific railhead in Portland. It's just a little south of the BNSF Ford yard.

Ford Canada doesn't send emails. I will have to rely on the tracker or call the dealerahip. I was told about 5 weeks so I will just sit back, relax and wait :)

Week estimate. That much slop means it's really a guess, probably on the high end so they look better if it shows sooner.

I guess I have 5 weeks to clean the garage now... No car in that spot since end of January... Stuff is piling up
I'm fairly sure it would take fire to get my garage capable of having a vehicle again. At least when the BS gets here I'll have more cargo room for hauling things to the dump.

I straight asked the rando salesman who emailed me useless data for a copy/screenshot of the vehicle visibility report and his reply was, "Thank you for your email, I will only contact you once your vehicle arrives." It's like a master class in missing the point. Since I anticipate progress Monday I can just blow it off for now. When my BS arrives and I pick it up I may have some comments for the sales manager to help improve their process.

Also, still no in production date, no module data this morning, but I have a whole 12 hour shift tonight to obsess over it.
Oh wow he missed it but good & completely! Man, every time I read on here about others’ dealers I realize how good mine is. If ever I wondered about some of their things, theyā€˜ve generally been straight forward & honest. If communications haven’t been as timely as I’d like, a quick text to him generally gets a quick response even if there’s no new info to be had.

I've directly asked 3 different salespersons for the VVR to no avail. I get that the process of having this many retail orders is kind of a new thing and that in the past the shoulder shrug worked, but the world has changed. It's time for the dealerships to catch up. It's a good thing I can't access gmail at work because these long, boring overnight shifts would be the perfect place to craft some Super-Karen emails.

So what is your current status... "In production" ?

Still in production, no date under that status on the official tracker. I think Monday maybe based on the timeline others have experienced.

Ford doesn't control ( well for us in the north or eastern US ) 98% of the transportation ... And I've ridden Amtrak enough to know that the delays are crazy... Amtrak has priority.. but if a train breaks down.. no one has priority.. it's kinda crazy like the airlines and bad weather ... Everything gets messed up...

I saw a great video on how complicated moving rail cars are . I'll find it
