I finally have my cheese-wagon in the driveway. The dealer was true to their word and made the process as easy as possible (not counting the ghosting for a few months). The cyber orange is even better in person. I have a few things I plan on doing to it, but it looks pretty sitting in the driveway.

9/9/22 my BS was recorded passing by Jacksonville...my ramp is RA21 and final destination is Miami..

As per chat new delivery window has shifted from 7-13/9 to 13-19/9 and this was updated on 9/3 according to the operator, while on the 8th when i've asked it was still 7-13...anyway...

Just talked to my dealership, they call UP and were told that contingency plans were in place with alternate rail services to continue to move products not already on the rails in the event of a strike. Unfortunately anything already on the rails would be impacted by any strike as they have already been contracted with UP for those services.

Not sure what rail service providers would not be impacted by a strike???

My dealership told me he could not tell where my BS was for sure. Last update from Ford was on 9/2 that it was in Arizona and Ford had not updated since then. Is there any way that I could call Ford direct to see if it made it on the group that is dropping off tonight in Oklahoma City? Is it normal for the dealer to not have information of movement Ford Corporate may have? Maybe he was trying to get me off the phone?? My normal sales person is out today.

273 days later, she’s mine. It’s honestly surreal. Still excited to see all the deliveries from the rest of our support group here!

Do you have the rail car number? You can track it yourself. If you don’t have the rail car number use Ford Chat to request it.

1-800-334-4375 Ford - ask them for the railcar # & which train co its showing assigned to.
1-800-877-5123 Union Pacific # if it’s assigned to them.

? just called UP, I am estimated delivery at final rail 9pm tomorrow. So if gates close at 5p I’ll now be stuck on a train for how long?!?
This has been the craziest experience ever!
