Ford chat just told me my car has arrived at the Richmond CA rail yard. They still quote a dealer (Morgan Hill) ETA of 5/30, but I suppose it could be any day subject to truck transport bottlenecks.

FYI....this is what unbridled looks like. ? Me in spin class. I think I need an unbridled t-shirt.

Still in The Black Hole #2 Pearland, TX rail yard. ?‍ Ford still thinks I'm in Kansas.

I love this idea for a shirt!

So glad I checked in on the status with Ford Chat! Apparently the car is now in SoCal! I am sure a million steps still have to occur between where it is now and the final SoCal dealership destination but just curious, has anyone beaten their estimated delivery date? Cautiously optimistic here!

Mine wasn't scheduled to arrive according to Ford chat for another 2-3 weeks from today but mine arrived early but there are a lot of people still stuck waiting past their scheduled delivery to their dealer. There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason for your car being picked and delivered over another's.

Papers signed, down payment made, financing through our credit union to be finalized Monday, and now I wait for her to made up all pretty! I’m taking her home today ?

WOOOOOO!!!!

Are you using Ford Options, or something else?

Went through our credit union for the loan. The terms and payments were nearly identical

I’m leaning towards Ford Options, simply because having the ability to trade/return the vehicle after 3 years is quite appealing, given the way tech is moving these days.

And don’t forget about the Ford Options incentive for your state.

I also just found out my Mach-E also has made it to Richmond, California ramp 84, waiting to be trucked to my dealership. ?

Fingers crossed is NorCal folks can take delivery soon!

And my dealer just called me at 6 PM tonight - they got my cyber orange Mach-E GTPE in today and I am scheduled to pick it up tomorrow afternoon!

Now I just have to hope and pray there are no shenanigans waiting for me tomorrow…but still I can’t help but be super excited!!

Really hope everyone else in our week gets their cars soon! It has been so much fun obsessively tracking them with ya’ll the last few weeks!

Photos to come…

Been working with the install crew all day on a 10kw solar installation! No word yet on delivery, but I did speak to the dealership today, they seem to think early next week it sounded like. Same train and ramp as CaliFaceDoc, so I'm hopeful!!
