OMG 8 pages of nothingness I just had to weed through 🥱

Priciliana said I was in Ramp 5M, New Boston, MI. I still don’t have any informationcome up from United Road so I guess I’m still 3M’ed there.

Man that took a while to catch up... you guys crack me up!

Looks like I'm going by rail too, even though everything was showing convoy only. The dealer tells me it's going to ramp 7 in Toronto then going 4 hours by truck from there. He sent me a pic of the VVR, but it was taken with a potatoe so I can't tell what the CN rail car number is

I guess I'll have to get caught up on the railfan lingo over the weekend...

CHOO CHOO... I am out of Chattanooga. No more switches or humps to slow me down. It should be in McCalla by daybreak. Too bad the driver I bribed to bring it to me went home to South Carolina for the weekend.

What's the hold up with @Sdctcher . He should be shipped and have his ride soon.

Just still Crappo Here!

My Ford Page changed this morning from Delivery 8/7 to 8/13 to NOW 8/26 to 9/01. But no email telling me about the change.

Never heard anything back from Dealer since rate locked at 2.89% on July 28th.
So that means my rate lock will run out August 27th and I will be hit with a 3.99% for 48 Months.

So, wrote a long nasty letter to Owner today. Probably just cause me more trouble. No reply.

First I guessed I was in QC for so long because of Ice Blue color paint repaint or Scales Onboard chip problems. Now I am thinking I missed the last train that is heading to AL or there are no Convoy trucks on the road because of $6/gallon diesel. Damn it! I am only 326 miles south so my $1,799 comes out to paying about $6/mile to pay for Convoy.

I do not want any sympathy! I want a truck!

Called the number, you need a PIN number to progress to trace.

Did you try 1-2-3-4?

I don’t think yours will show on United road. The folks on NS don’t seem to use them from what I gathered

I got into Baltimore around 1am. Jessup was a quick pass through. My ETA hasn’t changed so I wonder if my train will spend 36-40 hours in Baltimore at this point.

What’s your ETA?

 

[NoCharge]

Boom. The new phone books are here!

Woo hoo!! About time. Blending since 7/12 geeze!

Mine arrived in Birmingham at 5:16 am.
Surely they won't leave yours in Baltimore until Sunday.

Ford trackers haven’t updated yet, but I’ll take it.

I sure hope not. It's 78 miles away, straight shot, no obstacles, no junctions, minimal elevation. A couple of bridges, but I don't think any of them are draw. If it coasts as a comfortable 20-25 mph, it's 3-4 hours max.

It doesn't matter though, just found out this morning I need to fly out, which means there's a near zero chance for me to pick up the truck in August now as I'm only home for about 24 hours between next Thurs and Fri before I fly out again. Earliest I can pick up the truck after that is probably Sept 9th.
