West Coast delivery delays

[HmrHmr23]

That's not so bad.

Mine's been sitting in Chicago for 27 days.
Ita taken 63 days to go 200 miles, only 2,100 miles to go!!!!

At this pace it will be in my driveway in only 656 days!!!!!

IT'S HERE!!! MINE IS FINALLY AT THE DEALER!!! Got the email from my dealer yesterday late afternoon and just saw it now. He said 5 truckloads came yesterday. It will be ready tomorrow but can you believe my husband won't be home until Saturday evening so I have to WAIT even longer until SUNDAY so we can purchase it together! That will be 1 year exactly from order date, and 2 years exactly from my first order date (which I had canceled) I want to go see it tomorrow anyway. I need to see this unicorn vehicle with my own eyes!

Very happy for you. I am still waiting. It could go across the country in eight days but takes over two weeks and it still hasn’t gone 90 miles

Yep, mine went from KS to CA in just a couple days...then 11 days from the San Diego port to my dealer just 24 miles apart.

What I’ve been waiting a year for!

FWIW, the Cali folks have seen drastically faster shipping than the PNW folks. The Great Northern route is flooded with trains and has proven to be slower right now.

You being in "NorCal" isn't terribly descriptive so if you can figure out what rail depot your dealership takes delivery from you'll have more info.

If Portland is their depot. Expect linger delays. If Sac Town, it should be faster.

@HmrHmr23 I checked my order today and it updated the eta to 2/22-3/3! The chat cs bot said 2/21-2/27. That's 3 weeks from now! And all my dealer can say is its out of his hands and will show up when they get their next ford delivery which btw he doesn't know when that will be! Come on @Ford Motor Company do better!

Before anyone asks, it's been at Richmond since 1/21! I could walk down there and push it home in under 3 weeks

Salesman just sent me this. Mine is at the dealer. @Dezertrider20158 i sent you a number to the scheduler privately.

My railcar number never worked either. It took about 55 days after being built to get one, and it proved useless the entire way here. Now it is finally at the Port of Portland awaiting transport to the dealer.

By the way, there are about 5 or 6 Broncos at the Port of Portland awaiting delivery to Damerow Ford in Portland in case anyone else is waiting on their rig.

Interesting as my dealer just today told me my Bronco is actually in Portland. Ford Chat never showed any info on it but Dealer says its shows there in his tracking. Says it should be 'any day now' that it shows up to them.

edit to clarify, I'm not through Damerow, actually through Kirkland Ford. Dealer said there is a chance it may just get to them via truck from Portland vs another rail segment.

If you DM your VIN can look at the United Transport site and check

Mine is there too. Confirmed by me dealer and by Unitedroads.com. Ford chat still shows it in Blue Island.

Me too. It seems when my Bronco changed rail lines from CSX to BNSF at Blue Island, Ford chat lost the ability to track it. Interestingly, my ETAs in the 2 Ford trackers did change markedly as soon as the Bronco arrived in Portland. So there is some recognition in the system but that info isn’t made available to the customer facing folks.

This is what happened to me....actually, the trackers never really seemed to provide any real status update. Ford Chat was helpful until it got to Blue Island and switched to BNSF. Then my dealer started to provide VinView updates. As it got closer, I then check United Roads and saw my order switch from Inactive to Pending Pickup. It got delivered to the dealer Wed afternoon, and they finally called me yesterday. I'm going in today to pickup.

Congrats! That’s very exciting.
How long was your Bronco at the depot before it was transported to the dealer?

Picked up my bronco last night. Everything went really well they honored MSRP. It was a very smooth transaction.

It was there for 2 days I think. I actually saw the status update with a planned delivery date (to the dealer) and it actually delivered a day early

Tracker just switched to final preparation due to trucking company picking it up - guess that's what triggers the final prep update. They should be getting it here shortly as the dealer is just 20 miles from port. Could be picking it this evening or tomorrow AM!
