5/2/22 Build Week Group

[robo]

So I haven't been checking the tracking stuff much since the rail trip ended. I'd just get frustrated and more impatient. Couldn't help it today.

First checked with CSX. "Load empty, released by customer, 5/24 9:22PM.

Then Ford chat, which had been telling me it was still in Blue Island even after I'd tracked it to its terminus in Richmond, Ca.
"I am able to see that your vehicle has been Received at Ramp 84, Port Richmond, CA. Your ETA is between May-25-2022 and May-31-2022".

So at least I have confirmation that it WAS on that railcar I was tracking cross country.
and it's still on schedule for delivery!! Yay!!

Just received my production picture today! For you guys tracking your shipments to CA, did you use the Csx automated phone number the whole way? Last update I got with that was that the railcar # arrived at Blue Island on 5/24 and was offered to a foreign carrier.

Tomorrow! Rain all day today, but we needed it! Been dry here

@BroncoMax21 Best I can do as it is still raining. Front window 25% Kavaca IR. Windshield 70% clear IR with 15% strip. I also added graphics today. It’s a good day for graphics because rain keeps dust to a minimum.

man all you guys getting your rigs is making me increasingly frustrated with the shipping shit show. Been in MN since 5/11 or so and just talked to Ford chat. worthless information as they think its still in Illinois but it's not. 2+ weeks sitting at the rail yard and no end in sight. On top of that Ford Chat told me my ETA now moved to next week and isn't getting here this week like it was said to be. If it's not here next week i'm gonna start getting pissed as that's ridiculous. Let my dealership go pick it up themselves. They said they used to be able to but Ford hasn't been letting them. Maybe escalate it with the regional rep... Its already flagged as hot. I'm now crossing out delivery windows like i did when it got pushed from production...

Mine finally got off train today. Hopefully United trucking gets it out quick.

Yeah, as much as we're whining and complaining, we still know our build week was (mostly) very fortunate!!

Genuinely happy for you all! Just trying to look around to see that good things are happening for some of us to keep a positive outlook. 4/4 didn’t fair to well but we’re holding it together..

Yes, a little positivity goes a long way. I was telling the group several days ago that 7 bumped dates to the 5/2 week May have gotten me my Bronco faster. I would probably be on Dirt Mountain if I wouldn’t have gotten bumped from 2/14 into almost every week thereafter until landed in 5/2 week. Our week is almost completely shipped or delivered. My Bronco delivered 13 days after 5/2 Blend date from Detroit to South Alabama.

Ahh yeah just slightly ahead of you. Mine moved quick from Montana to Spokane, only about a day in travel time, then took what seemed like ages to make its way through Washington. You're close!

writing from southern washington. i was in 5/9 build week, but blend date was 5/8 and showed built on 5/10. On 5/12 I received the shipped email heading to Washougal, WA, (eta 6/5-6/11). Since 5/18 my bronco has been sitting in Blue Island, Il, says transferred to BNSF. I was wondering if you were able to track your bronco, did you have similiar wait times sitting in IL waiting for BNSF?? I'm wondering if I'm truly sitting there or hopefully on train with no status updates.

Dealer sent me this today! Lousy pictures unfortunately.
Canadian order for those interested.

App and Ford Tracker are definitely not correlating this info.

Ahh my rail car update for two days last weekend was 'departed Washougal, WA'! Yes, I got the CSX rail car number from Ford chat after I received my ship email and was able to track the car's progress all the way to Washington using that. Mine was transferred to BNSF at Blue Island as well, but it was only there briefly before it started moving again. I didn't bother to get the BNSF number since I could still track with CSX.

For what it's worth yesterday CSX had the rail car in Kent, WA but Ford chat still said it was at Blue Island. Are you tracking with the rail car number or through Ford chat?

Just through Ford chat. I ask for rail # and say they don't have one yet, maybe I need to ask for what the csx rail # was..

Dang, that's a bummer, hopefully your dealership calls this week to let you know your Bronco has arrived. Have you always been a 5/25-5/31 delivery window? I had an update today that my rail car is out of Blue Island, and now in Gibson IN. If the transit time is anything like yours, it should be in the Richmond rail yard around 6/6. As of my original ship date, I have a delivery window of 6/12-6/18. Hopefully it arrives earlier, but from the sounds of it, there could be a 1-2 week stay at the Richmond rail yard.

Hmm yeah it should have been assigned a rail car number as soon as it was shipped. I would keep trying Ford chat. I needed to ask a few times before they gave it to me. Once you have that you should be able to get an update from the CSX tracking line.
