I’ll never understand fords logistics. I’m an 1.5hrs south of you and still waiting for shipment. Maybe something else is going on. Congrats to you

I was thinking they wait for full load to California then ship.

Mine just went into built status, heading to CA. Happy to be the last one on the cart

Same. Built or no built is pretty much the same.

I got my train number from chat by just asking for a build status update... just in case you want to continue to obsess over the weekend

btw that timing of your notice is danger close to time my train said it departed according to UP's phone trace:

• Loaded train departure: 9/10 1:52am

I'm headed to socal too, maybe we're ridding the same wave!

Why yes I do want to obsess..
We riders for sure.
Chat not open yet, what's your number so I can practice?

Enjoy!

I think someone else said it at one point but it's looking alot more likely now that they're trying to get these out to the dealers before quarters end to meet some sales figures.... little do they know I already own this truck completely and I counted against their August numbers lol

Maybe but that doesn’t account for people with seq numbers before and after me getting shipped. It’s apparently neither FIFO or LIFO method since I was just skipped over.

Got mine today. Was emotionally exhausted during the whole reserving, waiting and ordering games and now I am almost Stoic. Hang in there, guys and gals. This is my first truck so now have to try some truck things.

I received my shipped email today. My order status page is now showing 9/17 to 9/23. Convoy to Central Maine --- Hight Ford. Hight has been selling Fords for 111 years! When they first opened they would complete Model T assembly at the dealership and teach customers how to drive.

History like that is a huge differentiator when there are a bunch of Ford dealers within an hour drive. I went with a family owned dealership after getting (almost) burned in the past by a store in a dealer "group". I hope places like that are a living museum with pictures of deliveries from the early 1900s decorating the walls.

So it was YOU holding up the shipping for us Californians…

I’m seeing other people getting built or shipped notifications, but myself nothing. However Ford Chat and my dealer confirm a 9/14-9/20 ETA. This is so weird! Do you have an ETA?
