It blows my mind how this is all going down!

 

Ordered F250 6.7 Lariat CCSB on 1/29
Order confirmed same day
VIN received 2/10
Built 3/25
Delivery scheduled for 4/1-4/7
Delayed to 5/7-5/13
Dealer says delivery by Thursday, but it’s still inactive in the United Logistics system so I have very little faith at this point. Taking longer to ship it from Kentucky to North Carolina than to actually build it.

 

I'm getting excited!

 

Ordered 2/18/22. Scheduled for Production for 5/2/22. Not showing in production on the ford tracker app but no delay emails either and I did get a window sticker on 5/2. Will be interesting to see when it gets here.

 

I ordered an F250 SRW KR CrewCab Shortbed on 10/16/2022. On April 1st (April Fool's day no less) I get an email stating the build will begin on May 2nd. A week later I get an email stating it was moved back to May 9th. I have my VIN as was able to enter it into my account on Ford's website. I still don't have a Window Sticker yet, but I'm hoping everything keeps going smoothly for the build on the 9th. With build, QA/QC, shipping to dealer, and then dealer prep, I'm guessing late May early June for pickup. Does that sound about right to you guys or do I need to expect a later delivery?

 

update — now shows pending pick-up in United Logistics system. Might actually be this week

 

I checked today and it shows now that it is in production. Yay! I also have the Window Sticker. It almost feels like this is going to happen now.

 

Quick question for you guys, have you ever seen your window sticker change from "Rail" to "Convoy". I have a print out of my window sticker from when my truck was first built and it showed "Rail" but just looked today and it's now showing "Convoy". Confused and United Logistics can't find my vin number and the last I check (May 4th), the truck was sitting at a rail yard in Kansas City with a new ETA of June 19th. It's 600 miles away from me, so hard to believe it's going to take another month and a half to get to me. Just wondering why the transportation method was updated from "Rail" to "Convoy" when it apparently isn't.

 

I've heard that Ford is working to expedite delivery once trucks are built, and adding Tractor Trailers more into the cross country mix. could be it.

 

Perhaps that is true. I was in contact with three other super duties built in the same week and shipped within days. Two went by rail to include mine and the other two went via convoy to the same state ~250 or so miles further west. Spokane to the Washington coastal area. The convoy trucks however are scheduled to arrive about a week faster vs the rail which surprised me. As of now, my truck sat for about two days in Chicago and is now on the move again without a destination nor ETA to the next stop.

 

I would suspect the reason here, if going to PNW, is that it's traveling by BNSF. There was a post in another thread from Montana Free Press about ~700 people walking off the job at BNSF due to the new scheduling rules that they put in place. This has got to be causing delays with rail delivery. My truck is currently sitting in Kansas City on it's way to Denver before trucked to my dealer. Original delivery date was last week, but I got an email on 5/4 (the original delivery date) that delivery had been pushed back until June 19th. According to my dealer, my truck's last touch point was Kansas City, arriving on 5/1. So based on the delay in delivery email, I have to assume that my truck is going to sit on the rail yard in KC for next month or so before it can finally be pushed into Colorado. Frustrating as all get out as I could walk to KC faster than rail can get it to me, so I have to assume that the BNSF troubles are what's holding it up. I would be interested to see if you get your truck delivered on time or if it's delayed like mine, as I would also assume that it's traveling via BNSF to Washington state.

 

I've been staring at this thing for over a week now...Ford says the truck is in"production" but according to the Motorcraft As Built page, the truck has not been built yet. Hoping it gets built soon and makes its way to CA rapido. Would like to have it before July.

 

I read that story about Montana the other day when it was posted since I assumed my truck would be going that way. Tonight, I checked with CSX and it updated the location to Kansas City so I sure hope its not going to be sitting there as long as yours has.

 

After 8 months and 7 days, She finally came in. With the wrong running boards, but f**k it. I have her now. Betty White is finally home. Btw, rock hit the windshield and cracked it within the first 24 hours of owning it. /smh 22 F250 SCREW KR FX4 UTT 7.3l 4.30diff

 

So, another 6 months to get a windshield? Man that sucks for that to happen.
