10/18 Build Week Gang

[MachMachWhoThere]

So I think I am on a different rail car, but on with everyone else ... TTGX987209 and was in Enola, PA yesterday so really close. Hopefully it gets to DE today/tomorrow and we should all just drive to DE and make the dealers show up there so we can get our cars.

Once mine got to DE, it sat in the placed rail car for about a day, but once they unloaded it, everything happened very quickly! It was even picked up by a truck and delivered to the dealer overnight!

Me too as mine has been sitting in MO since Dec. 6th. It is nice to see the cars actually getting to their homes.

This seems to have been temporary and fell back to null / pending

I called my dealer for a status and they mention my MachE left Kansas City on 11-28 and is on the way to New York. It on track to be here in the 12-22 to 12-28 window that was originally set.

Interesting to note, that despite the early glitch with palsapp, I still have no status updates there, and it's still listed as null/pending. Perhaps not all vehicles go through this carrier as I was led to believe.

Sorry for those of you still waiting. But I’m going to pick mine up tonight!

Awesome. Congrats. The train many of us are on has been chilling at Enola all day, so I'll get some vicarious joy through your good fortune!

I think mine left Enola about 36 hours after it got there.

Found out my car is in KC Missouri even though my rail car never was able to be tracked and Palsapp has no updates. What I dont know is if the stop ship is why it is still at the rail yard vs on another train to NY. I have reached out to Ford and they have been responding and are trying to help me find out if something is wrong. Still a waiting game but hopefully I will get an answer as to why my car says “stop ship”…the saga continues!

Hang in there, it’s worth the wait!

First impressions: a lot to learn, but wow, what a car! Gets up to ridiculous speeds insanely fast.

During my first test drive, I was a bit surprised how I didn’t get the butterflies I expected. On my way home though, when I floored it, I definitely got them. Holy sh*t - it was in a better state for full power I guess. Going to have to learn how to regulate that well. Perhaps it was too cold during the test drive and needed to warm up. I’ve got a 40 mile trip tomorrow morning, so I’ve scheduled a departure. I didn’t see any gray bars that others had mentioned

I’m really impressed with interior quality, but I’m also coming from a second gen Volt.

Got two fobs, Blue Cruise works (only got to test for about 10 seconds), and opened frunk from the screen.

Update - another delay, likely weather - Union Pacific Westward Railcar CNA 712351 to California Bay Area - I have to presume the train is hunkered down with a bunch of others waiting on weather.

Same location data - but ETA at terminal slipped another day..... now 12/23 at Midnight. They are setting up for a Christmas Miracle I am sure....... Yawn.

What day did it get to delivered in PalApp.

Mine hit Muncie 12/4 and when I asked my dealer on Wednesday, he said it's in transit in KC.
