11/28/2022 Build Week

Thanks for sharing. Mine was built the day after you, and supposedly "shipped" a couple of days later to Portland, OR too but I've never been able to get rail car information and my ETAs have been "updated" 5 times already.

I would assume we are on the same car, but who knows?

Just checked my the train car via CSX, the train car was originally scheduled to be in IL 1/8, the train is in Columbus and now not scheduled to be in IL until 1/13…crazy how the cars can just sit idle for almost a week and how things change for day to day. Like what happened from Friday to today for a week delay? I’m waiting for it to come to CO, so hard to predict when it’ll be here.

Tracking said mine wasn’t scheduled to arrive in Chicago Clearing until today then tomorrow, then it magically arrived on Friday and has already made it through Chicago Clearing to a Union Pacific yard. Seems kind of random. I hope it also speeds up for you.

If you learn anything more, please post. I've had no luck with CSX's automated system. Apparently I don't speak English to its satisfaction.

I’ve tried several times to get tracking through CSx’s automated system, and it reads back the incorrect info that I had just typed in. Tried verbally, and it get a worse result. Ugh.

You can use the keypad to enter. For example my rail car was TTGX253830. So this is how I entered it via keypad:

1#
81814192# (This represents the letters TTGX. You enter the number on the keypad which the letter is on, followed by the position of the letter on the number)
253830# (The railcar no.)
## (No more railcars to enter)

Hope this helps.

I checked for myself with instructions the other posted gave and saw that. I have no information to indicate my Bronco is on there, just pure hopeium.

There might actually be a chance of getting this thing before my rate lock expires Jan. 20th. CSX has confirmed the rail car was placed at Dixiana rail yard this morning. That’s two days earlier then it’s original estimate. If it could just get a car hauler then we are home free!

Finally hot my railcar number TTGX707104

1/7 - Walbridge, Oh
1/16: estimate Dixianna, SC

The adventure doesn’t end when your Bronco finally gets to the dealership.
Price is basically locked in, but they seem to be really trying to beat me up on trade-in value ($5k less than Carvana is offering), and despite having a credit rating of “bumping against 800”(his words), they are claiming they can’t get me an interest rate under 8% since I’m not currently paying on a vehicle.
So I just had to re-apply jointly with my wife, who is currently paying on her vehicle.
Just be prepared…or at least more prepared than I was.
Hopefully it’ll be in our driveway this afternoon, I’ll keep you all in the loop. Lol
Let’s hope we all get good news today!!!

This is what my tracker shows. I called ford, and actually, it’s being delivered TODAY!!! No emails, no baby pic, nothing. What a nice surprise!

Literally none of that makes any sense.. I think the one take away from this is definitely go with a pre-approval from some sort of credit union. Even if it's not an amazing rate.

Spoke with a Ford rep on Friday, I was trying to get a real-time update on my Bronco. They informed me that it was delivered on 12/22, but to a different dealer.

Called my dealer and told them what that Ford rep told me. She said they were wrong and that my Bronco is sitting at the Mira Loma Union Pacific rail yard waiting for a truck convoy to transport it to the dealer.

Does anyone know the expected wait time from the rail yard to the dealer? Am I just at the mercy of the truck drivers and if they have the manpower and availability?

At this point a magic 8-ball might have more accurate answers than any of these trackers.
