Drive and comfort are awesome. Wondering how it will handle the camper in the background! As a side bonus ford dealer has free charging and is a block from my work.

Smoked quartz? Hard to tell in that lightning.

Congrats! What was your blend date?

My new shipping window is now 11/4-11/10. These dates seem to change like the weather.

Blend was 9/22. Yeah smoked quartz. It looks pretty dark in the Oregon rain. So basically what it will look like for the next 6-8 months. The f150 next to it is magnetic gray for reference.
Wife was cold on our first outing (my second) and had all the heat blasting on max and seats on, so got to experience that decrease in mileage. Could have also been from my kids repeatedly asking me to pin them into the backs of their seats and me going along with it. Haha

I got an email to finish purchase so I checked website and it stated it got pushed back another week. Then checked again that evening and stated it was delivered. The websites dates are all over the place.

Picked my truck up yesterday. Basically popped a wheelie launching out of the dealership. Holy shit. Well worth the wait! Welcome to the future!

How do you get this information?

How do you get this information?

You need to get your rail car number from your dealer or Ford Chat.

From there, you need the number for CSX (if that is the rail company your vehicle is shipped with--probably CSX for Maine) or Norfolk Southern, which has an automated number where you enter your rail car information to obtain updates. It is quick and seemless.

He's tracking the train movements via dial up automated reporting system, you can do the same with your CSX tracking codes as it travels to East Brookfield Mass.

Oh sorry I thought you meant yours was loaded on a semi. Mine has been sitting in Boston for two weeks now since being unloaded.

Is United Road the carrier to your dealership?

I honestly have no idea. I called my dealer yesterday and he said he has another truck that’s been sitting there for 3-4 weeks also. He wasn’t sure on the specifics just wait and see until it shows up.

You are the man! What a find! Thank you! Do you think it’s fine if I use my own email or is this used for the dealership? Don’t want to step on toes.
