I just saw somewhere that united didn't show pending pickup until about 2 days before they pick it up! Fingers crossed for those that have a pending with them

Do you know that your is going united?
I do not show up on United, but the rail yard is only 10 miles from dealer so it might be a local carrier.

FordPass stopped updating last night at 11:05, so it’s on the move again. Hoping for a long stretch through the Midwest this time (unless of course it is on it’s way to the final rail destination in Shelbyville, KY).

I'm not! I know for a fact mine won't go united.
I think the others showed up on United way more than 2 days ago. I’ll keep everyone updated on what my FordPass is doing currently not able to update (since 11:05 PM last night). The less it is able to update, the further it is traveling without having to stop. It looks like the next ā€œofficialā€ stop should be in 7 days in Illinois near St. Louis. It shouldn’t take that long, so I’m assuming there will be stops along the way (or, if we’re lucky, it will travel straight through in fewer than 7 days).

My dealership is right on the Texas line (in Louisiana by maybe 5 miles) hoping mine went a different path than y'alls lol

@Jenbeth, when your GPS last updated, was it showing your vehicle in the states? My dealer for my rail car number and she said after looking this morning, my BS is still showing up being located in Mexico ?. I am hoping is just the computer system not being updated but I think I’ve crossed the line to being pessimistic.

Right? I can’t believe that map for the Florida owner, all the way to the Great Lakes and then down to Florida!!!

No, it only seems to update location when it is driven. I’m not sure what the map anomaly has been for showing Nebraska/Kansas.

The clues I’m going by is that it hasn’t been driven since the rail yard by the plant, but it goes inactive for periods of time which only happens when it is moving (according to Ford).

If it was moving after being in the rail yard without adding miles to it, so has to be moving on a train. That was last Thursday when it was at the rail yard (according to the updated address) and added two miles to the odometer. The addresses for the plant and rail yard are approximately two miles apart. It went inactive sometime overnight into Friday, came back on Sunday, went inactive yesterday morning, active yesterday around 3:00, inactive at 11:05 last night

looking at that map, it looks like it went to Nogales (border check for a couple of days) then moved on for half a day (probably for Arizona deliveries), and has been moving since 11:05 last night (was stopped for about 7 hours).

There were two of us on that same route. The other person has theirs now and mine still hasn’t arrived at the dealer after reaching the last rail stop on July 18th. ?ā€ā™‚

I also showed as in production on 7/5 with nothing since, so here’s to hoping. This thread has helped with knowing I’m not the only order this has happened to at least.

Maybe there is a chance that the truck shipping is waiting to gather more cars for that dealership. They probably won’t load one car onto a trailer for delivery. If some people are lucky that they are the last car onto the trailer so the truck delivers quickly.

My salesman has indicated that to me that is a possible scenario.

Yeah, I figured that to be the case. I’m working with a low volume dealer, probably garbage allocation has contributed to my extra long wait. If they do right by me at delivery on price and making sure everything is right it will have been worth it. The high volume dealers near me make no bones about telling you up front they’re going to screw you on price because they know people here are impatient.

I sent a message to my dealer's inventory manager again this morning to see if Ford's given him an update on the status. I'll let you guys know when he replies.
