Build week 12/12 here. Not sure if this is helpful or not, but when I punch my VIN into United Road, I show *both* my dealer and GFX-ROTUNDA:

I think the latter is related to Dearborn, MI but could be wrong. Maybe your last transport leg isn't with United Road? Have you checked with your dealer?
Thanks... That makes sense... Perhaps that is a transport from factory to staging area. I've reached out to my dealer to see if they have the name of the trucking company.

Got an update from Ford chat that my vehicle has arrived at the rail terminal in SLC, UT awaiting transport to dealer. Tracking on the United Road site is returning a load number and a Destination of GFX-ROTUNDA. Anyone know what that means? Most of the threads I've seen show the delivery receipt destination as the dealer name.

Mine also says GFX-Rotunda. No idea what it means, but I'm guessing it's no closer to being delivered to me.

ford chat told me this morning mine is in Lordstown, OH. It was previously in Salem, IL. So...we're getting further away from TX!

Some info, hard to believe it said shipped the 14th and it’s going to be a month before delivery.

Sure thing. I registered that location with my United Road account, and that definitely seems like a staging area:

Sort of amusing that short of a trip even registers or that Ford outsources transport services for drop-off 1.5 miles away.

Your "BUILT" status has posted on all systems, they posted a tentative ETA pending actual shipping, that tentative date might stick or slip pending the truck moving to shipped status, once that happens, the ETA will revise ~immediately or within a 48 hours~

Man, I am glad you kept my expectations in check. I am not even shipped yet and within the same day my estimated Jan 3-9 is now pushed to 12-18 (I got the built email with this change shortly after I saw it online). I guess that means it may slip even further when my status change to shipped. I am good as long as it is delivered before March but I prefer January to keep my stress level manageable.

I'm in the same boat. 12/19 built with a estimate of 1/3-1/9 which it has been since the 19th we'll see what tomorrow 1/3 brings lol. Hopefully a "shipped" status or maybe the truck just appears out of thin air 😳

•AVPL (available for placement; final ramp)
•Edgemore, DE

I guess it will get to Edgemore at 5:11pm then needs to head to new castle still 🤷🏻‍♂️? Crazy how @F150Blue was behind me and somehow pulled ahead over New year's Eve/Day!! Let's see who's leaves Delaware first (different dealers).

Keep us posted.
For reference (since we appear to be in the same boat), I still don’t show as Shipped but delivery estimate hasn’t moved out in the last few days. Still showing 12/31-1/6. I keep expecting it to change yet again.
