@Retired_in_Georgia, I have a couple other questions if I may ask...
What was your reservation date? And when was your order date? And are you getting both the $4,350 in PP as well as a MY transition/private offer?
Thanks!
Thanks for the reply! This sounds verrrry close to what's happening to me and I believe mine may have been an honest mistake, but I'm not positive.
@RagnarKon mine may be an edge case but I'm curious how this would impact the flowchart if my dealer is being honest. Per your flowchart, I'm...
Wow! How many miles on your 2016? What was the Private Party Value on your Wrangler?
Dealer low-balled me on initial trade offer: $16,500 for a 2014 JK Sport, clean, one owner, 62k miles, manual transmission.
Even CarMax offered $17,600 to buy it. I walked outta the dealership to come home...
Mine landed at the final railyard yesterday - Big Lift, Littleton’s CO. Made it to the final boss.
I’ve gotta figure out if I’m gonna trade my Jeep in or sell it outright later, the main factor being the dealer’s offer for it, which is why I haven’t made a decision. Obvious concern is getting...
During my trek across Indiana, the CSX phone tracker was giving me the ETA for Gibson, which I understand is actually "IHB Gibson Yard" just outside of Chicago. That's where my railcar switched to BNSF. I haven't had the phone tracker give an ETA since then but I'm on track for reaching the...
Right?! I kinda enjoyed the tracking though each state because it was progress, but any delay for >9 hours in a given town and I start squirming.
I think my rail travels are about to end, though. I’m officially out of Pueblo, moving north, so should see a quick trip to Littleton. Then the real...
That’s interesting. Not sure mine was ever on UP. I went from CSX to BNSF near Chicago and have been on BNSF since then. I will say I was able to get updates at every small town my railcar passed through for most of the route after the Chicago area. The most frustrating hang ups have been in CO...
My dealer is Castle Rock Ford. I’m assuming my final railyard will be the “Big Lift” yard in south Littleton off Sante Fe, as that’s the closest railyard.
My railcar route is essentially MAP > Chicago > KC > Dodge City > Pueblo > Littleton. I’m guessing on the last two stops but that’s the...
Congrats! The call-in tracking is a bit tedious but you can create a contact on your phone with the entire string included. So all I do is tap the contact to call, then Mute & Speaker, and let it do its thing for the entire message, then hang up. No speaking needed.
I’m still hung up in my...
I’m trying to determine how much this would interfere with the front camera view on my Wildtrak. Guessing that’s why Ford has a taller bull bar, but I agree that I’ve always thought it was odd blocking the BRONCO lettering on the grill.
Yes indeedy. Mainly asking because I was personally grateful to have other build weeks' data when I got a build date scheduled.
Argh, here's hoping it's just a tracking issue.
Great to see shipping and delivery for most in our group. Anybody in the 5/8 gang still stuck in Production or Built purgatory?
Favor request for those of you who have taken delivery: If you could update the spreadsheet with your details, it might be helpful to someone else in the future...
Mine is currently in the neighboring state of Kansas en route to Denver. Making decent time I suppose - shipped 9 days ago. Just hoping it doesn’t get held up in the last few hundred miles or at the final railyard.
Funny - I just received the birth photo from the assembly kind from Ford today...
Argh, yeah that would be super frustrating. In trying to gauge how quickly mine might be transported the last 15 miles once it reaches the final railyard, I searched the forum and ran across someone on here who had his hung up at the holding lot for 10 days with no updates. So close yet so far...
I will say it’s much easier to “enjoy the journey” when there aren’t long periods of complete silence, or broken trackers that give unrealistic dates. You deserve an explanation and update on the status.
My ride is hung up in KC, KS right now but being able to see some kind of update each day...
