Tracker said my build week was 7/10. But then said my 2 door went into production on 6/28. Got my WS and it had 7/10 as my blend date. Tracker just updated and said I now went "into production" on 7/12. Dealer said they show arrival date as 7/30. If I was a betting man..... Who believes it will be at my dealer in RI on 7/30? 2 door manual. Race Red.

Very similar dates as mine. My dealer has an eta of 7/31. But who knows. My blend date is 7/14 and have not had an update since 6/26

Finally got my email, scheduled for production week of 8/28 with a vin #. Original reservation Jan of 2021 for a Badlands. Ordered the Badlands for 22 code 99, then when the Heritage became available converted Badlands order with code 19.
2.5 year journey so far.

Just checked with CSX - mine will be delivered to the rail yard about 1.5 hour away from me on July 20th

So who here is going to be the first two door? What's the earliest delivery date?

Per my dealer and he showed me his sheet from ford(whatever that is worth) my ETA is 7/31. But thinking some HEL will be first.

Im new here so apologies if another thread has the answer… is there any way here (members with access) to find my CSX rail car info? I’m built, modules are online (learned that in another thread) and trying to get better idea on delivery so I could line up bank loan and Carvana deal on my current car.

Dealer says I gotta finish sale within about a week of delivery, so I may be rushed. Or, is that dealer demand ridiculous and better ignored?

Not sure about rail car info but did you put a deposit down? Sounds like dealer wants to have you not take that car and put an adm on it

1st question - How do I get rail car info

My car was in a built state for a few days before I could get the rail car info (YMMV). You can open up a chat with Ford (link here) and ask them for your Rail car number (its closed after 7PM Eastern so you will have to wait until tomorrow). You may have to try a couple times - as in, sometimes you will get a representative that doesn't/cant give you the info. That was my case, I closed the chat and tried again - basically everyday until I got the rail car number.​

2nd Question - Week of Delivery

I'll preface this by saying, this is my experience. After getting the rail car number, you can call CSX (CSX was my delivery method - link here for tracking details ) and provide the model and railcar number over the automated system. The 1st day it just gave me the railyard site it was sitting at and nothing else. Then I tried a day later and got the day it was departing, and the day it will arrive to its destination railyard.​

After that - its a guessing game as to when it will arrive to your dealership. I was at my dealer two days ago - salesman told me once it gets to the destination railyard it can take up to two weeks to get to them via Convoy. The uncertainty on when it will arrive is around driver shortages? .. at least that is what i was told​

​

Now here is what I did on the financing side of things. I applied for my loan as soon as i got my rail car number. The rate is locked in for 30 days so I'm hoping it will arrive before then. I took my car to CarMax yesterday to get an estimate on the trade in value. Its only good for 7 days but I dont care as I'll just get a new quote the week that mine arrives​

​

hope this helps​

You're the second for the day, congrats! They're running late this time around.

Wasn't expecting to see any HEs with the delay announcement that came out. For the rest of the unscheduled orders out there don't fret, looks like these two are late August and early September so still have thru mid November for '23 production.

Yep. They got a $1000 deposit (refundable) at time of order (the one day last March that order bank opened).

I’m back and forth on keeping my Mustang vs swapping out for the Bronco. Every time the trade/resale value drops, I get hesitant. IF I were to ‘pass’ on the Bronco (unlikely at this point I think) I’d wondered if I could transfer the purchase to someone here (not looking to purchase and flip… too much headache).

Well got a big surprise tonight! Email came through tonight and scheduled for week of 9/4. At least it's progress! Original order was 8/21/21. Changed order/model 3 times. Switched to Heritage Edition when offer came around. And we had started looking at a used First Edition just last night. Ordered a 2 door with ALL the sins I could get. Dealer had called 3 weeks ago and said we were switched to a priority 2. At least it's still a 23'!
