I hope you are having a better experience than I had doing that:

Me: T - T - G - X
Their automatic system: "Did you say C - B - E - X"

Me: No, T - T - G - X
Them: Did you say B - T - E - X?

Me: NO, Tee - Tee - Gee - eXxxx
Them: Did you say T - T - B - X?

Me: *&*@*@#&##*@(@*#!!!
Them: I understand you would like to end this call, is that correct?

Haha! CSX blows with that. Once it switches to UP in Chicago/St Louis, their phone system is much better. Only, it tells you every little tiny … not even sure “town” is the right word, that the train passes. So every 4-10 miles, you’re trying to decipher a new minuscule town it’s passing, and it pronounces them VERY strangely. I had basically no idea where it was after Topeka until North Platte. Sometimes I’ll still cross reference the CSX number because the status updates in both and they pronounce some differently!

the CSX guy asks if you want it repeated which is nice, but he can’t understand anything you say. The UP woman understands clearly but doesn’t offer to repeat the status. “East St Louis” was “Aslowiss”

my favorite is
“Tee Tee Gee Ex”
“Did you say Cee Bee Gee Arr?”

Nice, I use to service that plant when it had semis and buses on the other side....

That was a long time ago. Before I got there.

Found it!

Found it!

Wait, you went snooping around the rail yard? That’s gangster.

 

[GrabberBlue]

No, lol. It was outside the yard on public property right next to the road. Spotted the rail car number as we drove by looking for it. If it was inside the facility, we wouldn't trespass.

I hope you guys get some good news here soon. My 2 door, Lightning Blue presumably was built on 6/29 and is just sitting there waiting on a ride (or a roof) ever since. My patience has improved, though. I'm only checking the status tracker 50 times a day now.

Same build and same position. I haven’t seen a single 2 door FE delivered, so I believe we are the first. My bet is they are held up due to the roofs.

That was the absolute worst!

Well today might be email day for some or us. I know it’s showing no scheduling but my dealers Zone rep is saying different. Hopefully they drop some emails. If not this will be me.

 

[ATLUTDFAN]

Hoping today is the day we finally get the email, now that Granger has let us know our FEs are previewing.

(with our luck it will be next week or two months from now...LOL)

I guess it’s next week in the shower I go.

If I'm at priority code 01. does this mean I could get an email next round?

Who knows any more, week after week no scheduling.

 

[wolfman064]

My hopes were set high with the thought earlier this week on possible a chunk of FEs getting scheduled. Another week of no email here for me...

 

[Boston182]

Not that it helps, but my dealer said next week.

But I guess anything is possible. I think 2pm PST is normally when these emails go out, if I remember correctly? If we don't have them by then, I think we can wait one more week, yeah?
