9/5 Build Week Thread

That's strange @priext I believe my shipment will finish via convoy. It's noted on the window sticker but I was sure it would make it east by rail before moving to convoy. That's a long haul. If I get any other updates on my end, I'll let you know but I assume my car will show up way beyond the date range the Ford web site is indicating. What does your expected delivery window look like? Has it changed at all?

Switching rails cars/provdiers?

Dunno. Thought chat folks me that it was on a convoy last week but can not find the info for some reason now. My dealer told me yesterday that it still indicated being in KC. 12 hour drive from the dealer. Ugh.

I think im gonna give up on any further tracking efforts since the information is becoming less and less accurate.

I would have done the same! The NS rail seemed to move fast if that makes you feel any better. I called the NS line every morning and got the same message - "no tracing available" and then on the 4th ? morning I got the message that it has been delivered at 6AM that very day. From what I understand, all of the cars go to a central lot from the rail yard and then from that lot a truck takes it to the dealership. What's not clear to me is if it's John Cooper Transport that manages both of those legs or if it's a local trucker on the last leg, or what....I hope I get the call early next week. Hope that NS delivers quick for you @priext !

Ford website now shows that the dealer will contact me shortly, which I am interpreting means it was delivered. The website also shows an option to purchase the vehicle completely online. Anyone tried this with any success or seen anything about it in other forums? Thanks in advance!

Can you use a credit card?

Can you use a credit card?

Not too sure. I tried to click the "Cash" option to see how far it would let me go without actually checking out but didn't see anything about a credit card. Here are the three main options. I know that when you click into some of them it expands the options even more (i.e. if you wanted to lease it):

My delivery window was moved up to Oct 4-10, but still waiting on a call from the dealer. Car apparently is in Montreal at least, which is its last stop before getting on a truck to my dealer in Ottawa.
