Great, not the update I was hoping for…

Jim Farley talks a lot about catching up with Tesla and increasing manufacturing capability. Unfortunately, increasing volume doesn't mean much if you can't deliver them in an efficient manner. My car for example was shipped on 11/14 and arrived in Missouri on 11/26 only to sit there ever since. My ETA has shifted from 12/11 to 1/18/23 meaning it will have taken 7-1/2 weeks to travel the last 900 miles or so. This also effectively means the price will go up by as much as additional $7500 due to the loss of the tax rebate. Given I'm now thinking about not accepting this car, it makes me wonder how many other protentional MME decide to skip on the car and buy something else.

Being in CA, I was disappointed to learn of the salary cap on the state tax incentive. As joint filers, we won't qualify for that

Great, not the update I was hoping for…

Oh no!! I hope this is just some jargon pertaining to the ramp or the rail car or something and not your vehicle. Sending positive vibes…

Nice Congratulations, I am from the previous batch 9217 and it's still shows in Kansas City since Nov 24th. May be Mache is not meant for me.

As of 1:30 PM (PST) today, mine was in Fresno headed for Richmond:

Hopefully it will be at the dealer in Morgan Hill next week. My wife is asking me twice a day if the car is in!

BTW: I ordered items on the Ford accessories site yesterday that the dealer parts department said were out of stock. I received a shipping notice today. hmmm.

You are the lucky one, may be Northern CA is skipping Kansas City and we (me included) are stuck in Kansas City for our Southern CA delivery. Its been more than 15 days there and not sure how many more

Im norcal, was in KS for about 13 days

Was just updated that my MME is in Fresno and on the move to Richmond. Dealer thinks it could be within the next two weeks for arrival in Walnut Creek.

Great news for you!

If Fresno to WC is two weeks, then it's pretty much over for me at this point. Especially considering my car is now likely damaged.

I truly hope it is not!! Good luck!!!

i gotta believe most of the 2 weeks would be sitting in richmond. fresno to richmond should be measured in hours even by rail.

i hope that’s a conservative estimate.

There is NS rail yard in Avon Lake, OH by Cleveland. If you can confirm that’s where it is going, we can update the list.

I was digging around tonight and in another build thread, it does appear that RA07 was Avon lake. My window sticker does show RA07 on it. Based on clement.48's post, looks like it hit Avon then was at the dealership about a week later or so. I am still stuck in Bellevue which is only an hour away from Avon but it has been there since the 7th... So close and yet so far at this point.

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.

Bummed - dealer confirmed 12/11-14 ETA just yesterday, Ford tracking changed this evening to 1/9-15. If that holds, there goes my tax break.

I just got an email from Ford that my order had been updated. When I logged into Ford.com it now says my car was shipped and is expected 1/11-1/17 now. Wtf? Was it damaged? It was supposed to be in 12/8-12/14

Ouch, was your MME also stuck in Kansas City, Missouri? I feel cars there have some issue and hence are in some kind of a hold there.[/QUOTE]

Not sure, how would I check that? I’m in SoCal. Thanks.
