9/19 week Build Group

[KIMache]

Stoked yours is off the train, @SV8T! Left a message for our dealer to see if he can provide an update. First time we contacted him since build, so figure we're at reasonable harassment time.

Also, we are out of town 10/13-16, so can't take delivery if it's here at the end of next week anyway! Wanted to get it into the ceramic coater and window tinter asap, but if it gets here next week, it'll just have to sit at the dealer. Glad I have a least a tiny but of trust in the dealer given some of the nightmare stories on this forum.

Funny - We are gone the 17th-22nd (MEA) so I'm hoping it sneaks in before then. It will go immediately in for full PPF, Ceramic, and Tint as well.

There's a number of horror stories about delivery. I happen to have a pretty good dealer and trust them with my order.

Sales person updated me on 10/6 and reported that the vehicle is in Missouri and still on target for 10/13-10/19 delivery.

Seems like a long way to go stil in just over a week so we'll see....

I've seen some cars move pretty quick recently. There are a couple in the 9/12 build week that moved in about 7-10 days. Guess it's just luck of the draw? Mine sat in KC from 9/29 until this morning. I think the key is just getting out of KC.

I would agree mostly, some people get really unlucky and it makes it out of KC and gets stuck at the final railyard waiting for pickup for weeks though.

Got my update from the sales guy like clockwork. LOL. VVR was still showing "arrived at junction point" in Laredo. He seems to think it's sitting in the rail yard, but I think it's moving based on other VVRs I've seen that don't show a "departed" line. I'm guessing I'll hit KC today or tomorrow based on times I've seen others post from Lecheria -> Laredo -> KC.

@SV8T Excited yours is almost home! Hopefully it makes it before your trip! ?

I checked about the same time you with did with Ford Chat and had the same update; arrived in Laredo on 10/4. I'm hoping it means it's in or will soon be in transit to KC and not sitting in Laredo. My ETA of 10/25-10/31 is still unchanged.

My dealer just emailed that my car's in Missouri (KC?), and he expects delivery in Northern Cal Bay Area by end of month/early November. (Shipped 9/24, Ford Tracking ETA: 10/20~10/26).

thats great news maybe everything’s getting sped up now

Chat tells me the latest check in is still Laredo (shipped 9/27). New estimated delivery is 10/28 - the first estimate was 10/22-28.

There’s a post on Reddit that I don’t like - someone in MA has been delayed three weeks in a row, and it has been stuck 200 miles from him all that time. Car carrier scheduling issues in the Northeast…

Mine shipped on 9/28 and is still showing as in Laredo, too. Chat today said that it was sitting at a "hand-off" location waiting for the next rail carrier in Laredo and gave 10/26 as the pick up date. Original frame was 10/12-18, now it has slipped to 10/20-26. I totally expected it to be in MO by now.

yeah its kinda surprising that its not in MO yet, seems like theres so many things that can go wrong on this transportation. Ford really needs to improve the tracking and the time if they want to get to an order only system

When I checked a couple days ago, I had the same update. Did ford chat give you the updated, slipped delivery date or did you also get an email? Is it also showing as slipped on your Ford account?

It was on the VVR from the dealer yesterday and also Ford chat today (dealership closed on Sunday). Curious if there is an actual hold up or it's just still en route to Internati even though she said it was at a hand-off location.

As for my Ford account, I don't have much info there since I wasn't the original person to place the order. The Domino's Pizza tracker has the circle under shipped and the top says shipped, but there's no date under it and it doesn't give me an estimated delivery date that I've seen others share screen shots of. I also don't get any emails for it since I took over an abandoned order. I'm super lucky to have a sales guy that texts me an update every day he's in the office!

Did you get your MME taken off the dealer's website?

Yes, the Domino tracker doesn’t say much. My dealer has been out of town so I’ll have to check with chat again tomorrow to see if my dates have slipped. I ordered online and on my Ford account, my dates are unchanged. I’m hoping it’s moved from Laredo and just hasn’t arrived to KC yet, but it shouldn’t take this long.

When did you get your shipped email? 9/28?
