Mine is in Newark NJ. Train arrived last night.

How long on average to de-train and get picked up by unitedroad?
Not sure if I was average, but my car was unloaded seven days after the train arrived in Newark. After that, it took another four days for United Road to deliver to my dealer (but it involved a weekend). Then two days later I picked it up from the dealer-- so 13 days after it arrived in Newark, I had it. For the sake of others waiting, I hope that is on the long side.

This delay sucks as I am sure my dealer will hit me with the higher ford options financing rates. Not sure how I force them to use the rates from November when I locked in my order!

Rail car arrived at the NJ yard. Let’s see how long it takes to unload and get out on transport truck
Rail car was unloaded at 10AM today. So it was a day and a half from arrival to unloaded.

Keep in mind my case may have been on the worst case end. Hopefully you won't have to wait that long.

The Options rates/incentives available at the time of order should be honored-- my dealer did without any hassle-- 2.49% for a non-GT/$2500 cash-back available from January. There is some uncertainty though about what the rates for 22's actually were in October/November and possibly December. They may have been 2.7%, not the 2.49 for non-GT's and 1.4% for GT's that we thought existed-- it might be that the promotional rates back then only applied to a '21, not a '22. By January, they definitely were 2.49%/1.4% for a '22. That's what my dealer honored. If the rate really was 2.7% at the time of your order, that's still better then what the rates are now/what they may go up to next month.

Has anyone gotten Ford options with a November order for a GT? I recall it was 1.4% and 2500$ but of course I don’t have a screenshot for that rate for NY.

What is the code in Vincent the dealer has to put in to get price protection and the order date rates ?

Called Norfolk Southern (for the last time) and got the final “RMTY” (i.e. “Released Empty”) status. Just waiting on a car carrier now.
Got a text from my dealer that my car is ready to pick up and got the Ford “complete your purchase” email. Driving to the dealership now!

Original order date: July 2nd
Pick up date: May 19th!

Smooth dealership process. In and out in enough time to make it to my nephew's graduation. Rides well and definitely worth the wait!
Congratulations! You look pleased and the car looks great.

At the dealership doing my inspection. Should the tires look like this? Or is something missing?

Despite a June 5-11 delivery date, my car just showed up at the dealership. Woot! I hope the rest of you end up just as lucky! #dreading thepayment!

It's been 3 days since the end of my estimated delivery date of May 18th. The car is less than 60 miles from me at the train yard for the last 7 days. No updates from dealer but I hope it gets unloaded and trucked there soon ?
