Mach Drop Build Updates

[agoldman]

I asked my dealer for a VV location. Here is what he sent:

Why is there no further history?? Jack Cooper Transport clearly shows it was delivered to the argentine ramp on Sunday. If I call Ford, will they give me a more updated version?

No. The train picks it up from there, and then JCT may or may not post a status from the destination to the dealer. Mine shipped on train 2/7, with no visible tracking after hitting the ramp on 2/5. There is some days play between batches where some sit waiting a couple days longer or shorter than others. It's kinda random.

This is the Ford Vehicle Visibility report, not Jack Cooper. I'm trying to see if it has left the ramp yet, and if so how far did it get. My Ford Dealer says it shows me to still be in Mexico. I don't think my car would show delivered to the argentine ramp if it was still in Mexico. I'm trying to determine why my ETA has moved out 4 more days.

My drop FE (shipped 1/23) finally changed from pending in palsapp. It shows delivered to Norfolk Southern (VOLTZ), Birmingham, MO, delivered on 2/11. Slowly getting closer...

Glad to see another CO-bound car that went to the Birmingham ramp. Mine did the same. Seemed odd at first since that's the ramp on the northeast side of KC while the Argentine ramp is on the west side. I figured westbound trains would probably start from the west side ramp.

Not totally sure, but it appears the WB line from the Birmingham ramp may be Union Pacific, while the WB line from the Argentine ramp may be BNSF. If true, then ours are probably heading out on UP to their Henderson facilty (NE Denver area), instead of the BNSF "big lift" facility just south of Denver.

Yes the Argentine ramp is BNSF

Here are the "flyover" tracks in KC - three levels of train tracks.

If VV is messed up then not sure what to make of it -

Yeah I'd say that's correct. My dealer said all of their cars come to Brighton (right near Henderson). Pre-Covid they could designate you as the dealers agent and you could pick up your car right off the train. Unfortunately not allowed currently.

I just got the call that my Mach Drop arrived at the dealer today. That's the first I've heard from the dealer since I confirmed the build week in the beginning of November. I'm not sure I'm going to take delivery since I'm leaning more towards keeping my Rivian R1S order, but I'm going to see how I like it this weekend.

I always have to ask, where in Michigan?

So I have some new information based on the palsapp. Not sure what it means but my destination to New Castle Delaware has been updated to origin:Kansas City destination:Birmingham, MO. Again, not sure what it means, but as far as I’m concerned any movement is good movement.

I see the change as well.

I think the Delaware pending was just a holder for the last leg. My car shipped towards Del on 2/7 and the palsapp and tracker have not updated from the Birmingham ramp delivery. They may not before it hits the dealers lot.

My dealer has their FCTP now, it took 15 days from the Argentine ramp to them. I will be able to drive it, hopefully the roads are not covered in snow or I may need to wait to go there. If my car takes the same amount of time, it will be here in 10 days.

Just got a notification to set up my profile in FordPass for my Mach Drop.
