Talked to Ford chat today. They said I was still in production (of course lol) but did say my status was now only "plant hold" instead of plant hold due to micro chips. Not sure that means anything or not but at least the status changed. Either way, still stuck.

Mine sat on pending for over a week and has now dropped back to activate. Sent the request again, it's back on pending.

I like how Ford is like, "This date."

And we go to the forum like "Alright fellas whats the real date?!?!"

Finally got that bad boy. What's the estimated time between that email and arriving at the dealer?

Anywhere from 1 to 25 days early, proximity to the plant affects the variation.

I rec'd an update that my truck was on rail car TTGX820859 in Chicago. I am not sure what, if anything, to do with that info but I thought I'd share.

If it's not one of those two then it's the other railroad that I don't know the information for.

Congrats. There is hope. I think the only story on delayed delivery that might be more sad is @rlbussard and that ordeal with his truck going back to Detroit.

rlbussard's story is the worst I've seen.

However, being a 5/5 blend and seeing NOTHING from Ford for weeks/months is pretty crappy. The impact is potentially THOUSANDS of dollars, literally.

I'm headed to talk to my dealer today. They might not know any more than I do, but at least I'm hoping they can start a fire on my behalf. Next after that is putting Jim and Ford on blast via the socials... lol :)

You don't know how broken hearted I am still. Just thinking about not getting my truck for at least a month or more just irritates me to no end. I would like to think that Ford might take care of me in this instance, but I'm definitely not counting on it.
