10/03/22 Build Week Gang

[Ford Motor Company]

Meet Agrippina. Named her after my RDR2 horse. Home at last. Wife and I went on a forty mile joy ride into the foothills. I think I love this car.

She is beautiful!! This is such a nice photo, thanks for sharing!

Got the call that the car arrived at the dealership this morning! Said it would be ready later today, now just need to figure out when my wife & I can go pick it up.

What a nice start to the week. Congratulations!!

Welp Ford officially sucks. The delivery date updated in my order this morning. Went from 11/8-11/14 to now 12/18-12/24!!! I have no idea why it should take 2 months to move a car 2 states (I’m in TX and MME has been in Kansas since late October) @Ford Motor Company WTF!?

Congrats @Msnwcpa !
What did they end up doing with the dent ?

The dealer said they can fix it without needing paint job.

Happy for all of you that have gotten your cars! Still awaiting any update on mine. Super annoying to see that people in the 10/17 build week have gotten their cars while many in this build week (and earlier weeks) are still sitting in Kansas purgatory.

Indeed

I'm surprised Ohio deliveries are getting delayed so much .. does your dealer or FC know if the car will be coming via rail or truck ?

According to the window sticker, Rail. There is no convoy info on it.

I just received an update form Ford chat that my car passed through Ohio Asy, OH. When I look that up it seems like Ohio assembly in Avon? not sure what this means but the car is at least in Ohio. @MustangAmy it is probably worth it to check for an update with ford chat and see what they tell you.

I might. I've kind of been happier living in the world that I will be surprised and it will show up any day. If I talk to Ford Chat and they tell me it is still at Ramp 6P, it will just irritate me.

If we knew where Ohio cars ended their rail journey and then went via truck, that would probably give us a better idea. Maybe they go to Avon and by truck from there?

When they sent over financing info I said I want them to pull Smart Vincent report so I can see incentives protected from order date and that I am interested in the ford options plan.
Waiting to see response.

Oh if only I'd NOT checked on the status and location of my MME (ordered 12/7/21, built 9/13/22) over the last 11 months, particularly the last two months that it has been in "shipped status", 49 days sitting at ramp 6R.

FYI Avon is ramp RA07 which is the ramp that is shown on my window sticker. So it appears I am finally done with the train journey. Just hoping for a quick truck transfer from here but it sounds like I will have it by the end of the year which was my ultimate goal.

My window sticker says Ramp RA07 as well. Hoping our cars are both on the same train to Avon and we will have them soon!!!

today FC:
"I see that your vehicle is currently in transit via Railcar # TTGX990396 (Burlington Northern & Santa Fe Railway Co ). It is located at Ramp 6M, in Argentine, KS. Its ETA was set between Nov-04-2022 and Nov-10-2022. However, a new ETA is pending and has not yet been updated in our system. These dates are estimated and can changes based off of specific factors related to your order, the plant, or the transporter. I would recommend continuing to check back for any new updates!"

just some time ago I had message that it should be Convoy and I had JCT info..... hoping to get car before December 4. I think my SP was very honest with me when he said that I should expect 2-3 weeks delay from original delivery estimate.
