Yesterday I saw a Tesla painted or wrapped in Grabber Blue, the nerve.......

Ford Motor Co just called me, I have a liason! My car is now scheduled to get on a boat in Veracruz on March 30 with expected dealer delivery of 4/12!!!
Still not sure why it took a month to ship since build date was 3/2...

I'v said this before , but IT'S HAPPENING

Got my Built email 3/19. Estimated delivery at that time was 4/15 - 4/21. Yesterday my tracker showed shipped. Now my estimated delivery date on the website has moved to 4/1 - 4/7. Shorter delivery time is nice. May be because Tulsa is a relative stiff 2-iron away from Kansas City compared to shipping say to the coasts. May just be placed on a truck in KC and not have to change trains to get here. I need to now figure out how to get the railcar number to track the train.

GTPE Rapid Red
3396
143/303

I don't recall that anyone ever learned the rail car number from Mexico to KC. Maybe I'm wrong.

At the rate things are going, I suspect there is only one rail car used, and the engineer is the same guy that takes a box of chips out into the field every time he gets back into town and picks another 10 cars to load.

Under the Trackers link it says all cars start out on CSX and then in KC will get on a different rail depending if they are heading east or west. The notation said you call your dealer, and they can look of the Rail Car Letters and the Rail Car Numbers. You can then call a toll free number, work through the steps as outlined. Called me dealer, he could not find any numbers or letters. Neither could Ford Customer Service. I have seen in other threads though people commenting that where their cars are on the rail during the shipping process.

Yes, my dealer tracked my car to KC by leveraging VVR, then I tracked it using palsapp from KC to Petersburg VA after VVR reported the rail car number.

I got this email just now. Does that mean the vehicle is delivered to the dealer? Ford tracking doesn't seem to work and keeps reloading.

Yes, your MME should be at your dealer now. Call them to schedule delivery.

Congratulations!

Congratulations!

Mine still doesn't show shipped only what the lady from the exec office said
The ship does stop in first in Jacksonville, then Brunswick.. could be your car in on the same boat??

I was thinking the same thing. The ETA on Ford.Com still shows 3/28 - 4/3. That is not likely to happen.

But I'll get my L2 charger installed today so I should be ready when it finally gets here.

I also just got a call from FoMo, but my rep wasn't as helpful. She just sounded overworked and stressed out. I asked a few questions, but didn't get any real answers to them. She did quote me a delivery date of 4/17 to which I replied, "Oh, it's shipped then." Her answer was no, it's still waiting. After some back and forth I told her that I was no expert, but based on what I've seen here there's no way my vehicle will make it to the California Bay area in 3 weeks. The last question I got in before she let me go was, "are you just reading my VVR?" Her answer was yes, so I basically learned nothing more than I was able to find out on my own.
