Mine doesn’t exist so I can’t help. But Industry is somewhere else. UP is dropping off the trucks in Mira Loma, from there they will Convoy to their destination. Unless industry has a Ford Drop off point that just recently popped up.

But it doesn’t say Industry, CA whereas the other cities it has the state. So now I’m thinking my assumption was wrong and Industry is where it would hand off the railcar to convoy?
I know it's absolutely not Industry as a city. I've called 3 different times and when it would mention a city, it would also say the state. Like yesterday the system told me it was scheduled to arrive in Salem Illinois on June 6th at 2:09pm.

Yea, once I saw your fax, I agree and F150ROD says Ford doesn’t have a facility at City of Industry, so it all lines up. I just got excited when I heard Industry on mine and that was near me

Did you try the other carriers to see if you could find any tracking on it? Yesterday I decided to call the others and then I finally found the rail car on Union Pacific that had a current date.

I'm thinking that industry is the final destination because it's 700 miles and 4 days away from Dallas. And trains can run up to 300 miles a day depending on stops. So I figure that 4 days is 175 a day that's easily doable.

Well damn, somebody has your truck. So Ford customer service doesn't have any idea where your truck is at either?

Have they given you a Railcar #?
No.
i reached produced On VVR status 2 on 4/28, nothing else has changed. VVR update date 5/26, but no change On that date.
as I mentioned dealer received a 5/17 blend yesterday.

I think I’m still sitting waiting to be processed with whatever change or update after assembly.

I understand it is more economical for ford to roll them straight off the line to transport.

just disappointin.

And then read the rest lol
I do find it odd that I'm not getting ANY notification from them lately... even fluff messages like the above...starting to feel like its a crapshoot.

Checked FordPass this morning. My truck has an extra mile on it and it’s showing on the railroad tracks (or at least very near) on the map.

Reached out to Ford and it’s been assigned a rail car and shows in transit!!
