That sounds like just about exact the same timeline mine is on at this point. Even the order and build date pretty much. My dealer is also out of the loop and has no idea what is going on. Good for you for investigating further. So have you done a vin search on palsapp already and yours doesn't show a car#? Mine has shown a car# for a while now.
I am a 3/24 build and had a similar issue. My car arrived to my dealer in central FL about 10 days after arriving at Birmingham MO. It will happen. There are many uncontrolable issues with the transportation side.
I'm going through Gosch Temeculafor my GT space white, can you give me any heads up or things to consider when mine comes in hopefully May or June
Just picked mine up on Tuesday. If you are doing Ford Options like I did be ready to stay a while. Finance guy was nice enough, but really had no idea how to write the contract. I had Connie as a sales person and she owns a MME herself and did a good job helping me set it up.
have you contacted the ford support and asked for an update and/or a rail car number?
No, but I got the email today that it is delayed and the new date is May 25-31 - so I guess I'll just wait a bit longer. Ordered on 8/7/2021...I know others have waited longer, but it's still a long wait.
A lot of people in other threads saying that they get delayed email but then the car still arrives early. Check last few pages of the 3/14 build group.
Sharing a tip in case it helpsâI went through a credit union here in Austin but the dealership tried to be a little shady with me. I went to pick up my car, we agreed on numbers, and after I mentioned my financing was already pre-approved (2.45% interest at UFCU). They were âconfidentâ they could beat it so I let them try. While they were pulling numbers I went to check out the Mach and one of their guys walked out and said they wouldnât accept my financing. That credit unions were âtaking 90 days to deposit moneyâ lately and that âthat doesnât seem fair right? I get my car but they donât get their moneyâ.
They tried to tell me I had to finance through them and could refinance through my credit union later if I wanted. 
Very strange about CU financing, we tried this road for my wife car and it could delay pick up for 3-4 days . They planned to issue cashier check to dealership. Ironically, dealership financed us with another credit unionSharing a tip in case it helpsâI went through a credit union here in Austin but the dealership tried to be a little shady with me.

I was alone so I think they were trying to take advantage but I pushed back and called the Texas Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner in front of them, and they explicitly stated that the dealership cannot deny valid outside financing options. If they tried, I could have filed a complaint with TOCCC for which they could face penalty.
Not sure if other states are like this, but donât let them tell you they wonât take your credit union just because they want to do your financing themselves.
P.s. I had to call the dealership almost a month later to ask why they hadnât deposited my credit union check yetâŠthey just hadnât gotten around to it yet. So yeah, they were really worried about getting paid quickly it seems.
