9/26/22 Build Week Chat

Ooh, Pasco. That's pretty close. When did you get that update? Mine was in Spokane on Saturday. I figured it was getting close to Portland by now. Might be on the same train.

I decided to take a peek at my ETA just now. Just went from 11/12-18 all the way to 1/5/2023! I think that's the first 2023 ETA I have seen!

UGH!!! 2023???? No good, hopefully you get pushed back to this year! I am obessed and I check it daily maybe twice, in the AM and PM.

How did you find out it was in Pasco? Ford Chat?

no, the last time I chatted with them they told me to call marketing. i had my dealer look at VINTracker.

Update today, mine was moved from 6R Richards Gebaur to 6M, Argentine, KS. 21 miles of progress! Does anyone know how long cars have been sitting at 6M?

Here's my data point from 10/10 build group (shipping to TX). Mine made it to ramp 6M on November 1 with no trackable movement from Ford Chat since then. I called CSX tracking and it was noted it was released to customer (BNSF) on November 6.

Received from Ford the Complete Your Purchase email about an hour ago, started the transaction but moved it over to continue with the dealer. They are working on their end to confirm when it will be ready for pickup and start the financing part, and hopefully, by the end of the week, it will be in my garage!!!! I knew I should have gone over yesterday when I was closer to the dealer to take a peek.

 

[JenCooperTaylor]

It has been confirmed it is at the dealer!!!! Depending on the timing of prep, I will either pick up tomorrow afternoon or Thursday AM.

Just got the call tonight, my vehicle passed inspection and just needs a charge - I am picking it up on Friday this week !!! Excited to finally get into my MachE.

So it is 2 weeks of ownership today. No OTA updates. Still shows system up to date. Even though I know based on others in the main forum, I am behind on my Sync version. It doesnt appear that anyone else in this group has recieved an OTA update either. That for me is the next milestone, a successful OTA update.
Also finally got cold here last few days, anyone else hear a sloshing sound when the fan / eheat starts? Even with eheat based on how much im driving, car drops from 90% to 80% every 2-3 days.

i do not have OTA either, a little over 2 weeks and put 1200 miles on it. we are getting to low 40s in Houston these days and driving range dropped 20 to 30% as E- heater kicked in . not bad for afternoon driving as weather warms up, but it really sucks at 530am and i only have around 3 mile/kwh or a little less with mixed highway and local. of course, i do not drive like a 20 years old kid

I haven’t received a VinView update since my vehicle was transferred to 6U, but today I was able to get a rail car # from Ford Chat.
UP TTGX992355
Same ETA as you, but heading to Riverside.

I can’t tell for sure, but when I call the Union Pacific automated tracking system, it sounds like my rail car is still sitting in Muncie. I guess tiny incremental bits of progress are better than none, but I’m starting to get impatient.

Order date 3/12
complete date 9/27
shipped 9/30
estimated arrive date 1027 to 11/5
changed to 12/13to 12/18
changed back 11/5 to11/11
changed again 11/11 to 11/15
changed again 11/18 to 11/21
i really have totally lost interested and not the least bit excited anymore
If it goes past the end of the year, I am not taking it

different route to nearly same endpoint:
order 12/7/21
scheduled 32 weeks 7/19/22 - delivery ETA 10/29-11/5
built 9/13/22 40 weeks - delivery ETA 10/9-10/15
shipped 9/16 destination SoCal
9/27 arrived ramp 6R, Richards-Gebaur, MO
10/13 delivery ETA changed to 11/4-11/10
11/8 delivery ETA changed to 11/27-12/3 (This would be 1 year after ordering)
10 months waiting for it to be built, 2 months in "shipped" status, and counting, has really burned away the "exhileration". Ford email from January 2022:

I haven't seen this method of tracking posted before, so I thought I would share. I went to United Road | United Road and entered my VIN. It came back with a load number and my destination dealership.

I then followed the directions on this page to create an account:
United Road Logistics - FAQ | Bronco6G - 2021+ Ford Bronco & Bronco Raptor Forum, News, Blog & Owners Community

Now I can see all of the vehicles at the Portland, OR BNSF railyard that are going to my dealership. And sure enough, my car is there, status is "pending pickup". So I guess I'm optimistic that Ford's updated 1/5/2023 delivery date is BS?

My dealer has 6 pending deliveries. That should be enough to get a truck over there soon, right?!?

After getting my 4 th changed of delivery date yesterday changing from 11/12 to 11/15 to new dates of 11/18 to 11/21, got a call from the dealer this morning that my mach E arrived this morning. Picked it up this afternoon. What a fun vehicle to drive

Exactly. The production time wait I was fully aware when ordered But once shipped and delays keep coming is frustrating On a good note mine showed up this morning after the update last nite say 11/18 to 11/21
