Do you have an ETA for your truck?

 

Yes. The 18.

 

So my truck has been in transit since 8/4 and tonight I had a live chat with Ford who tells me the truck is at the ramp and not shipped and that I should call my dealer to get it expediated, what the hell does that mean and how long does it take to get from Kentucky to NJ by rail two to three days?

 

That would drive me nuts!! I'm sure you will get it before you know it....... but it does sound like calling the dealer for an assist may be helpful. They want to get paid so I'm sure they would make a couple of calls to help get it going.

BTW...... palsapp.com........ mine shows
Origin = New Orleans
Destination = null
Status = pending
Apparently there is an order to ship mine from New Orleans somewhere.... no clue how it's getting to New Orleans. Maybe mines sitting there with no orders to get it to New Orleans?? Sounds like "in transit" can mean a lot of things.

 

Truck just came it. YA

 

Well I just checked with Ford chat and my truck is still in transit, and my ETA was bumped to 8/23 from 8/19. Guess I may bother the salesman again to see if he has any more specific information. I've only asked him for an update once, so I figure i can't be annoying to him yet..

 

For the amount of money we are spending on these things there should be a automatic customer update process. What a clumsy "system." At least some dealers are apparently giving their buyers weekly progress reports. That should be the minimum standard. It's pretty sad when we have to apologize for requesting info. Yup, I'm now officially getting impatient.

 

I ordered mine May 31st, its scheduled to be built today so fingers crossed. ETA for delivery is Sept. 5th.

 

Wow, 2-1/2 months from order date to build. I will stop my whining.

 

Ya I don't feel so bad about an additional 4 days anymore. I just got the below info, so it's either on a rail car, or if I'm reading this right, already landed in the rail yard yesterday and just needs to be moved to the dealer.

 

congratulations! When do you pick it up

 

I will pick it up tomorrow. At 10.30 AM.

 

Molts any word on yours . Mine is in Ann Arbor Varsaty Ford.

 

Just got a text from my dealer that my truck was delivered today!
He sent me a photo and advised service would prep it tomorrow and I could pick it up after that! The palsapp.com still shows my truck in Louisville with a pending status. So much for the accuracy of that! He sent a pic just after unloading from the truck.

 

Congrats!! 450..........nice!!
