Waiting room

[SpartyOn2007]

Like many of you, our BL order is being pushed again, now to June 20. Ford is playing musical chairs.
Ordered: 10/28/2021
Scheduled Weeks: 6/6, 6/13, 6/20

It’s frustrating because you don’t trust the date they give you.

Premium is the common factor. 360+ is not being allowed on stock builds, so all those parts are reserved for retail orders.

Did Bill tell you this?

Tim, the Ford Video Guy in his livestream yesterday, and a few weeks ago.

At least there is a pattern...

He does a youtube livestream on the Long McArthur Ford youtube channel most Tuesdays and facebook live Q&A most Thursdays. Or you email him [email protected]. He's in the forums if you want to tag him. He's very responsive, but he is a dealership employee, not a Ford corporate employee and can't speak for the company directly.

So for mine heading to Michigan, UP didn't have any match. CSX gave me this status: Departed Hermosillo at 6:00am no ETA available.. Starting my spreadsheet tracking..

Good luck deciphering what the tracing system tells you. I'm baffled by the words UP says, but if others are right that "industry" means the end point for the rail portion of the journey mine is currently slated to arrive in Portland about midnight on Saturday. That will be 11 days rail with an average of about 160 miles/day, so that's very doable.

90 days today since I placed my order with not a build date in sight. I thought my work assignment in NC would make the time go by a bit faster, but there's a large concentration of Sports here (way more than AZ) and it's definitely not helping my mental state.
Really hoping there's scheduling next week!

UP is Union Pacific Railroad... Basically most tracks west of Mississippi river... Isn't Industry in California? It's UP ( Union Pacific Railyard.., https://www.up.com/customers/premium/intmap/losangeles/city-ind/index.htm.. why do you think Portland for Saturday night?

All true, and the trace line says cars heading East from Nogales will also arrive at industry, leading some to theorize that it's just a generic word for the delivery point. See this post for more on the frustration of deciphering information from UP.

I realized afterwards that i read his wrong .. but I guess we need some humor... Then again Michigan has a UP also ..

I think it's a sign that you just need to let it be and be happy when the phone rings that your BS is ready for pickup. Lol
