Shipped Mach-Es Arrive at Kansas City Terminal With Deliveries Imminent

[TheVirtualTim]

The dealer emailed me regarding my car this afternoon. As of this morning his latest info was that it was loaded onto the Norfolk Southern railcar on Weds (but his system didn't update him with that info until Thursday morning ... his status on Weds was simply that it was delivered to the yard via Jack Cooper trucking).

He re-checked my car this afternoon and now the train is moving. It has passed an intermedia check-point in Decatur, IL.

My ETA End-date hasn't changed (yet) ... but the dealer says based on where it is, he thinks it may arrive sometime between Monday & Weds.

But then he cautioned me ... he HAS seen cars arrive at a rail yard and just sit for as long as a week ... sometimes more ... before getting moved to the dealer (I don't think that will happen in this case.)

So "officially" my ETA date range is 2/13-2/19. But the dealer suspects it may be here next week. I hope he is right.

I am showing as new on here, however I HAVE been reading all the threads etc. and FB posts for a few months now. Ours was delivered to Argentine 1/23. And from what I can find is ours is coming by BNSF to Richmond, CA. From there then trucked to the dealership.

Mine hit Argentine Ramp on 1/22. I haven't gotten any news info since. Mine is headed to Frontier Ford in Santa Clara CA

Mine has also gone radio silent. I emailed on the 22nd and then on the 28th asking about the expected eta from their system, assist with valuing a trade in, and also finance. No response to emails and when called passed to two different sales people that had no clue about the Mustang Mach E. So very disappointing for the "Biggest Ford Dealer in Wisconsin". And I agree, they're not getting a cut or much so they could care less.

For those in SoCal when you go the palsapp with your vin there is a high table area in the top right where it says RECEIPT. If you click on it then it will list all of the cars on that truck(9) and the vin color. The color is weird.

I know that Galpin is being bombarded with the big Bronco orders since that is THE newest internet only order. As such sales people are spending their full shift returning and confirming orders. Apparently those are ONLY 6 months out. So between the baby Broncos now available and the big Broncos approaching the MME is just old news until they arrive.

True story.

On the day I spoke with my dealer he says they've been bombarded with calls and pretty much spend all their time on them. We're not the "new new thing" anymore.

You are right - my SD dealer has like 20 ish MME orders and he has no time with MMEs because he is working hard to keep with with Bronco order work. He said he has not seen such activity at Ford in a long time. Even if Broncos are online reservation, from order date onwards its all with dealer and its known process .

What they are REALLY saying in my opinion is we have GUARANTEED sales/commissions on the MME so when they get here those will get paid and no real work. The Broncos both baby and big boy represent our sales/commissions for the REST of the year. For that reason we are spending ALL of our time locking up those commissions/sales. The day of someone walking in off of the street is coming virtually to an end. Sure test driving and seeing real colors BUT THE ACTUAL sale is already done.

I also find it fascinating that Ford announced ZERO X PRICE on any Bronco. I guess they learned from the MME. I wonder how many or rather if ANY are sold at MSRP or rather NON X pricing.

Exactly, Emeryville (where Pixar is now) isn't far from Point Richmond either. You pic makes me wish I would have taken photos years ago the last time I was at the studios.

Guess I should have picked the Walnut Creek dealer since I have to bring the car up there for the PPF install (the guy I use moved his shop up there years ago.)
