They were holding up the hauler so they could load mine today :). Tomorrow is the day! ...maybe...
Tomorrow doesn't help me. I'll be annoyed if it comes tomorrow; would prefer Tuesday next week. Otherwise, I have to sit here knowing it's nearby without being able to buy it until next Wednesday.

Needs to come in the next hour or two...

How are you guys tracking? United Road?
Oneand0 posted in the 5/23 thread I think. He had his ford pass accepted, GPS enabled.
Most of us are just going off our ford pass being denied which usually means someone moved the truck. Nothing else shows anything new.

Ahh okay. One of the lucky ones who got accepted. The rest of us I guess are on the Hunt for Red October and just pinging with denials in the app.

United Road works in normal times, and was still working back in June for my dealer deliveries.

These are not normal times. I think Ford just ends up contracting with any trucks that are available.

There are a lot of car haulers to use.

Based on my research, it usually takes ~5-10 days just for a hauler to be free and come pick up the trucks for delivery.

My VIN shows up and I get a load number, but I am thinking this was entered before we all went to Vegas, if you hit tracking it shows it coming from BNSF Richmond, but I think we all agreed that they are being trucked from LV. It shows that my truck hasn't arrived in Richmond yet

Not sure how it works with these alternate routes. I think we are trying to piece it together with limited options.

Yeah, I think that was their plan A and now we are somewhere much further down the alphabet. It seems now all we can do is wait on the dark side of the moon. Was hoping someone came up with some way between the rail system and United Road.
