🛠 3/14/22 Build Week Group

[Bazan]

No manual transmission builds in the spreadsheet have been built or received a build email from Ford.
To be fair, there are a lot more people who have received a built notification in this thread than have updated the spreadsheet, so who knows?

Manual transmission BD. Pick mine up tomorrow (Holland MI)

@Bazan Thank you for this

 

[truckatologist]

I have a manual trans BD, blend 3/17, yet to hear anything but in production

 

[Cayman-S]

Yep, if the information is accurate it is at the railyard by the Chrysler Plant in Wentzville just waiting to hitch a ride to the dealership.

Well who knows, I just did a chat with Ford and they said that it hasn't been shipped and my eta is 4/13. Whole situation is as clear as mud.

I tried to get my railcar number from my dealer and he said he couldn't get that info. Upon further research I found he does have that info (as well as all of us who have a shipped car)... it's on the top of the window sticker. At least the railcar number.


Look for the 6-digit number after 9-normal at the top of your window sticker:

I don't know about other rail-lines, but with Union Pacific you don't need the car initials... just the car number and you can type them in on the phone and locate your car.

In the message that is repeated by supplying your 6-digit railcar number the computer-generated message will list out your (mine was 4-letter) railcar initials as well as reconfirm the 6-digit railcar number.

Jenny here, thanks a mil for this info as I just rang Union Pacific, did the TRACE thing-
1 800 877-5123 and it doesn’t appear that the rail car is in the system yet. FWIW the rail car number from my window sticker is 103809 incase anyone else has better luck or shares that car.

Just went through and updated people who posted. So far about half the 7mt have gotten built on their tracker, photos or emails.

Mine at least made it to a railyard in Chicago and was offloaded there yesterday. It may sit there for a bit until it's ready for whatever train is heading out west. Not sure how many layovers/transitions it will have between there and here.

Not sure what is going on, but I did get railcar info from CS and it is not what is on the window sticker. I can get info from the CSX trace number with the info from customer service. I have tried tracing the window sticker Number through CSX and Union Pacific with no luck. Do we have any rail experts that can assist?

They told me estimate shipping date was 3/30.

My ETA is 4/9-4/15. Weird how we don’t have the same delivery dates.

No idea Our sales guy said he recently got one in 2 weeks so guess we’ll just wait and see!

Hey I am wanting to get the Sasquatch Beauty rings powder cleared. Do you know a reputable person/shop in the Houston area? I will post in the Houston group as well.

 

[simbatoner]

OK i know my bronco will be going CSX into Selkirk, NY New England Region…. Does anyone have the letters for the rail number that usually runs that way? I have the numbers but not the preceding letters.
