In holding true to this thread I can now announce that, I HAVE A WINDOW STICKER. 
Out of habit I clicked on my pre-configured window sticker link and much to my surprise it took a little longer than normal and poof a nice green window sticker popped up. I had to take a quick look at the VIN to make sure I hadn't changed something, but nope all is good and it has all the items I ordered.

Congrats, another one finally found its way home. I wouldn't be missing the chevy too much, but that's just me.

Great looking truck. Really looking forward to more pics. I knew I wasn't the only one trading in a chevy to go back to Ford. It's a long year and a half. Enjoy the truck, she's beautiful.

That's an even better pic. I love that black. That's what I have coming. Mine's a Lariat gasser optioned out close to platinum level. If my truck shows up at it's current eta it will be 10 weeks and 3 days since I started this whole process. The waiting game is worse now that I know its on a train headed this way and I still have over 2 weeks to wait.

Mine is just now leaving Kentucky on a Norfolk Southern train. The problem is they don't run into Texas. Either in Memphis or New Orleans Union Pacific will pick it up and haul it the rest of the way. Went in and talked to my salesman today and he looked at the printout that they are given for incoming vehicles. It had an ETA of the week of 7-2. He went and asked the sales manager if he had or could get any more information and no BS the sales manager opened up COTUS. After talking with my salesman a little more he was able to get in touch with someone else who told him about the vehicle visibility report and he opened it up and I was able to find out that little bit of info. I'm hopeful that now that he has access and knows how to use it he will provide me with more updates. I leave for a weeks vacation with the family on the 29th and I really hope it's here waiting on me when I get back. Fingers are crosses....
Jim, you are also one of the guys that I feel I shared this journey with. Really happy you have your truck at home where it belongs. I will keep everyone posted on any updated information I am able to get.

I love seeing all of these beautiful black trucks being delivered. (thats what I'm waiting for.) After being stuck in Louisville KY for 12 days on a broke down train, it is now showing back in transit. Still not showing a delivery date.

I just called and left my salesman a voicemail asking him to run the visibility report so that I can get the railcar number that my truck is on so that I can hopefully get someone to track it for me. It was in Louisville KY on Friday already on the train. I just don't see how it will take 2 weeks to get from there to Central Texas. I could be wrong but I think my ETA of 7/10 is a little off.

Yeah, I have seen so many stories stating that there is just no way to predict the when, where and hows for these trucks. I just know that if my truck shows up after Wednesday this week I won't be picking it up until next Thursday. I'm not to upset about that as that will mean I will qualify for the new incentives which come out on the 5th. Hoping for big money...
