Waiting room

[Little Wild Boar]

So the express train to Michigan made it to Missouri last night... It's only a few states away now... I think it's weird that it's going to take 3 weeks to still get to the dealership.. I guess the car hauler might be a big delay too

I saw mention of the factory being closed for 2 weeks in July? Is that right? I'm afraid unless by some miracle my car is done by then I can automatically add 2 weeks time to however much longer I'm waiting.

It's hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I shouldn't complain because I already have a BS that is fine. But I'm just tired of getting excited my date is coming up only to have it changed week after week. I haven't seen anyone say they are on their 5th date yet. So if there is anyone out there please tell me, I'd feel better if it's not just me lol!

This is what was in the Maverick Forum.

Thank you. If my 6/27 doesn't hold I won't hold my breath for anytime in the near future.

Mine arrived in AZ on 6/2 so perhaps mine is north of Kansas now. Perhaps this time next week it will be close to or in Canada.

If I did not love trains . I think it might be. But I'm actually impressed with the movement.. I kinda thought it would be slower.. a daily change is nice compared to 17 days in production with no status change

I've actually been watching a lot of railfanning videos after getting into the shipping portion of this calamity. The audio and visual repetition is very Zen. My wife loves trains, so when the BS does finally get here we plan to make a run to a train museum near here for some fun.

What museum? I'm still confused on which way it's going to go to get to Michigan... Since it's on CSX I'm Assuming from st. Louis to Indianapolis to somewhere in Ohio to Michigan... But there are so many tracks east of the Mississippi... There are tons of choices...

What museum?

Northwest Rail Museum.

If you ever drive your new bronco through Nebraska take her here... We stopped on our way cross country before... It's the largest rail yard in the USA.. and they have viewing areas to watch it in operation...

At some point, yep. I want to see the Big Boy 4014 as well. I think it's in Cheyenne.

Curious if anyone knows whether a specific feature is holding things up for some of us at this point? I'm having trouble coming up with another reason why I've been given 5 different production dates and how each week I'm pushed to the next week. At some point I would think it would finally be my turn unless they keep expecting a part to come in and it just never comes.

I'm just so annoyed especially after I saw a cyber orange Maverick in the parking lot at work this morning and got super jealous. I mean I'm glad I decided to order this color because it's amazing but I just hate that it's taking this long and who knows what's going to be happening with interest rates by the time it shows. Not to mention it's getting harder and harder to believe the dealership is really going to give me what they said they would on my trade 6 months ago. Although used BL are going for outrageous prices right now it seems.

I was worried about my trade in value, but when I signed my order sheet I also made them write on paper the value they accepted for my trade it and sign it.

Yes, they did do this for me. But I'm still afraid they will change their mind.
