El Mirage Train Yard

[ryboyd]

I got word from my dealer in Tucson that my Bronco made it to the trainyard in El Mirage on 10/24. It was built and got a shipped e-mail for it on 10/4 but never was able to get train car info. ETA currently is 11/3-11/9 already pushed back once.

Anyone have any real world experience with timing from El Mirage to dealer?

Also if anyone happens to see a White 4 door Sas badlands on a convoy or in the train yard and can snap a pic it would be much appreciated.

Mine took a week to get from El Mirage to Jones in Casa Grande. It really depends on how many cars they have as they won't send a carrier for just a couple of them.

Timing was absolutely perfect for me to be out of town for a week when it got to Jones, so it got to look pretty for a week at the dealer before I picked it up.

Yea, sounds like you timed that perfectly.

I hope for you as well. Dealer then took 3 days to do the pdi.

I don’t know how long mine was at El Mirage, but my blend date was 11/29 of last year, and it arrived at Holmes Tuttle exactly 30 days later on 12/29. Yours has to be pretty close!

Well the first post was a false alarm. They dealer mixed my order up with someone elses. However as of December 1st it was unload and sitting in the railyard at el mirage. verified by the dealer and ford chat. My ETA has been moved 3 times since it was unloaded. So at this point I am not very optimistic it will get to the dealer before the end of the year.

Echo what was said above regarding how many vehicles your particular dealership has to pickup (they wait till the hauler is full)....I'm in Chandler and mine sat at the railyard about 8 days, but same train had a friend who was getting his in Casa Grande and his sat for over 3 weeks. That was almost a year ago now, so things may have changed....just my experience.

Well my buddy who was on the same train just had his delivered to Oracle Ford yesterday. Crickets from my dealer....

It is so frustrating to be so close, yet so far away. I’m going through Rodeo Ford in Goodyear, about 20 mins away from the yard. Mine arrived Friday. I hoped to get it before I left for CA today. No luck. My finance rate is locked in until Jan 6 so I hope it comes by then. I’ve driven by the railway yard twice, thinking I might get a glimpse of it but there were so many cars there! 🫤

Our trucks been in the rail yard, El Mirage, for about a week now. We believe it was unloaded either Saturday the 14th or Sunday the 15th. Still waiting was told should be at the dealership between Jan 18 through 21, 2023. Nothing yet. Salesman said the yard says now by next Wednesday Feb 1. Ordered it Feb 23, 2021. Reserved July 26, 2020
We're waiting patiently. As patiently as we can anyway. Dealership is in Prescott AZ. Only 106 miles away now. Anyone know the names of the trucking companies working for Ford in El Mirage? Like to try and track it, but can't find company names.
