Thread for people who haven't gotten their Mach-E's yet to be grumpy in

[HuntingPudel]

mine says expected delivery between 14th and 20th. Is it reasonable based on the fact that it is on Argentine Ramp on 23rd.

I am in SFO.

My expected window is 11/23-11/29. Since my car hit Barstow this morning I think it will be ready to pick up earlier, probably next week. I’m on the Peninsula but buying from Brentwood.

Things to do while waiting for our car include visiting the Planta Ford Cuautitlán Facebook page. You might see your car being built ?

how do you know that?

Have a build date for my previous order (Premium AWD ext. battery) for the first week of January. However, I asked to change it to the non-PE GT last month and it reset my place in line as the dealer said they couldn't convert the original order.

Hopefully I'll get it sometime before 2023.

Palsapp says delivered to the Argentine ramp on the 21st and has not changed since then.

palsapp never changed from Argentine ramp for me.

Does your VVR have any current location? Mine was also shipped on October 20 but it appears to be in a black hole.

My MME was built October 14th and allegedly "shipped" October 16 according to SEG.FYI et al. However, my dealer's update from October 30 shows the last status update on October 16 as "Shipped Rail - Railcar # KCS 008xxx ()" and "Ramp 5J, Lecheria Cuap, EM" So all I can figure now is it is in a black hole somewhere between Mexico and KC. The dealer seems to think it is still in Mexico at the ramp because there are no other status updates, but I don't know if others have seen intermediate stops or not.

The only way to find out any details between the Kansas City transfer on Palsapp and delivery to your dealer is to ask the dealer for the latest status. Some dealers are more helpful than others. If they tell you the railcar number, then you can use that information to track the progress of the train by following the instructions for Union Pacific that are posted with the Trackers information on the forum.

ordered in Sept 2021, won't see a car until March or later in 2022.

it took 2 years for a custom guitar to be ordered, built and delivered, so i figure 6 months for a car is reasonable in this day and age.

am i grumpy about it? not in the least. now if it gets to be July of 2022 and no real update? i'd be sad about it, but i'd also just cancel and buy something else.

cars are just things, things don't matter that much to me anymore. my dog, job, and family are my priorities. (maybe not in that order, but maybe...)

You, my friend, made a wrong turn. This is the room for the grumpy old people. You need to go down the hall to Room 420. You will have an opportunity to play your custom guitar, smoke some herbal "medications" and debate the meaning of life. The rest of us just want our damn car. I'm at 20+ months myself.

According to what I have read, palsapp doesn’t change after you see “Delivered” to whichever “ramp” your car is getting transferred to.

Yes yours will be here very soon!!! Our biggest wait here is for a full truckload to come from Richmond

The rail company used by Ford to get to the west coast doesn't have public access for info, so all public info stops at Argentine ramp which is aggravating.

I'm joining the desperate now after lurking for some time. Grumpiness increased significantly when my dealer, for the 3rd time in about 2 months said "it will be here soon, you will love it". Ford marketing is no help (no surprise). Delivery to Earnhardt in Chandler AZ ETA 11/28/2021. No palsapp action. Ordered 2/20/2021. Allegedly shipped 10/06/2021 per ford email and seg.fyi.

*sigh*

In case anyone was wondering I’m buying from @dixiekidd88 ’s dealership. ??

I'm so confused. I have a wall full of custom guitars but no car

I have a house full of car parts and only an old mass-produced guitar (and a custom bass trombone).
