✅ 5/16 Lightning Build Week Group

[It's Just Me]

I tracked my railcar ttgx981264 with the bnsf voice response system and it said something like placed at industry on 6/11 1pm. I hope that is the ford rail drop at alliance near Fort Worth. The only other stop was in salem IL on 6/8, after the initial load at Dearborn.

Will find out for sure next week.

How does one track the rail car? I vaguely recall this being discussed somewhere recently, but I am too tired to look all over for it.

Not the only one not received early. Mine is not in either and today is the first day in the delivery window.

You’re lucky. My build was 3 weeks before yours and hasn’t been updated in 7 weeks, still sitting in Dearborn. Another guy at my dealership with your build week delivered on a Wednesday night.
enjoy

I checked on my status today. Same delivery date between 23 and 29 June, shipping to a dealer in MA.

But, the circle on the vehicle order tracking shows a check mark on built, and a white dot in the shipped. If the information I've found is correct, this means that she's been loaded onto a train or truck (sticker says CONVOY) so hopefully she'll be sitting in the driveway soon.

Not sure if you have seen me post about this in other threads.......
Hopefully you configured your truck to meet the criteria GVWR >8501!

I do not think we're able to track the east bound train, anyone, correct me if I'm wrong and this is outdated

My scheduled delivery is 6/9 through 6/15. I think I may be the only one who didn't get their truck early?

Mine is the same as yours. Binghamton NY.

Too many stories on here to keep up with each one turn by turn, but I think you may be on the same rail car as @rlbussard - I think this is the same path and time frame his took.

I bought from Bob Tomes and they are waiting on their mannequin and the owners truck - the first one they have built. I would venture to guess those two are on with yours as well.

Feels like an irritating drip to the forehead...5/18 blend date and "still" in production - fear I have been abandoned in a Dearborn lot - at some point an employee is going to find it and say holy shi#, this things been sitting here four months.

I used this call in system - actually recorded the output so that I could play it back and transcribe.

Union Pacific

1. Call UP at 1 800 877-5123

2. Follow phone prompts for Trace

3. Say the railcar number complete and clearly. Example CN123456 all together

4. Listen for your update

ugh - still "in production" too - 5/18 blend, destination Albany, NY area

Taxman - I have been trying to keep up with as much as I can, like drinking from a firehose I swear.

I live in Free America (New Hampshire) but I chose the little family owned dealer in MA that is two towns away instead of the dealer that is 10 minutes up the road in Nashua (whose service department I am less than thrilled with dealing with.

I appreciate the MOR-EV info. Quite interesting. NH does not offer a lot, just the way the politics are. Eversource and Until are the big utilities up here and they aren't pushing a lot, so all I get is the $7,500 from the feds. Eversource (as I was typing this) just started a rebate program for a level 2 charger installation that I now have to look into.

Thanks for being what I respectfully and lovingly call one of the "EV geeks" or "EV nerds" that really knows this stuff and shares it with us lesser beings.

Ford.com chat told me that my Lariat made it to Mesquite on Saturday. Seeing that's only about 30 minutes away, I'm expecting I'll get delivery any day this week!

Direct from the horse's mouth (Ford) - so much for excitement of Wave 2 order and one month ago blend date: It looks like your vehicle is currently on hold at the moment, waiting for a microchip. The hold started on June 6th.
