🛠 12/20/21 Build Week Group

[medieval7]

First time caller, long time listener. Thank you all for such great info and digital comraderie. It's made the loooong wait much more tolerable and fun.

I love how each page / system displays slightly (or very) different information. Pizza tracker (when it's working) shows Shipped with a 1/23 delivery date. Backdoor shows Shipped with a 1/17-23 delivery date. Palsapp shows no destination nor destination name and status as Pending. Calling CSX and I find my railcar was released from Toledo, Ohio on November 17(!), about 7+ week before my Bronco was built in Michigan.

It wasn't until I called BNSF's tracer line that I found out my train arrived in Valdosta, GA this evening around 10pm ET. That's less than 2.5 hours from where we are.

I really think Ford needs a better customer-facing tracking / tracing system.

Hopefully, my order / build / delivery saga is nearing the end. Really excited to actually get my truck as my family is pretty sick of hearing about it.

Now I just need to decide between the BFG K02s vs. the Falken Wildpeaks (to replace the SAS Goodyears) and then take it to JAX to get wrapped in PPF!

St. Simon is beautiful .. I’ll keep my eye out for you. I’ll be spending some time out there

Well, I know I should be grateful that my rig has made it off the line (supposedly…no “proof of life” pic today).

But I’m feeling a little disheartened that I’ve tracked the train from Detroit, to Toledo, OH, to Cincinnati, to Louisville, back up to Indiana…and now over to Chicago.

I know I can’t really blame the trains on Ford, but good lord this whole process has been so frickin’ frustrating. Just some accurate updates, timely emails, a line picture…there are so many small but effective things Ford could do to keep us happy and engaged, but they seem to screw up every single step of this experience in one way or another.

Rant over. I guess I’m just feeling annoyed tonight as I see folks get their trucks and at least some proof of life in the form of line pics, while my rig just ping-ponga around the Midwest. I know, I know…there are people on this forum (and the world at large) who have it a lot worse than me!

But I’m feeling a little disheartened that I’ve tracked the train from Detroit, to Toledo, OH, to Cincinnati, to Louisville, back up to Indiana…and now south of Chicago.

I'm with ya, brother. Ford needs better systems integration for its tracking and tracing. The disparity between the various sites and systems is insane. Not a great customer experience to say the least. That said, I'll just be happy when I get the damn thing and I realize obsessively tracking it isn't making it come any faster (but it's kinda...fun?).

Thanks. It does have your vin in there. I’ll replace with mine and try.
edit: didn’t work, but thanks again. They must not have a jpeg for mine.

Looks like they’re hashing the VIN so you can’t just replace that part

I'm wondering if these pictures get taken right after they pop your mods? Table 9 crew missed the photo session.

I have BCE values, but no PCM numbers. Does that mean anything to anyone?
Do you need both with values before it is officially built?

4am update. Nothing new. Hoping for an assembly line pic today. Only 95 more pages until we get to 400!

12/23 production date- still in production
Mods have populated but no updates?
I would think after 3 weeks it would have been built?
Is everyone getting production line pics?

If it makes you feel any better your one of the only people on this forum that my computer does not mark as junk mail.

Since I don't think I am getting an assembly line this will have to stay as my baby pic

Suggestions welcome on how I am now going to transport my kayak with a softtop

You are doing better than some. I have an in production date of 12/30 and estimated delivery date of 01/29 but no other updates. I’m stuck in some weird limbo of QA or waiting on parts or it’s already at the dealer and I just don’t know yet. Welcome to the world of checking the trackers every 15 minutes.

Is the status of all these photo's still showing "In Production?"

For my pic yesterday
Build date 1-4-2022 according to dealerships. Build week was 12-20-2021
Mods popped next day for me.
In transit to dealership now - Csx line says it’s in Missouri. Im in SoCal so delivery date eta is 2-9-2022 from ford, no ETA from CSX.
Status says shipped.

I'm in the same exact boat as you. It sucks
