Unofficial Awaiting Shipping thread.

[BRDDOGN]

@BRDDOGN My salesman just texted me (today is Thursday) this morning and said that my Bronco should be at the dealership today of Friday. POE means Point Of Entry. It's the Petersburg Auto Rail Yard. Once ground transportation is complete, I should be done with this process.

Congratulations. My update still says Crewe but the NS person I spoke with yesterday said it is due at POE today! I’ll keep you posted.

I guess my dad is on a Ford regional "retreat" right now and was talking with the Regional Rep.

Not gonna sugar coat it no-one knows what the fuck is going on. We are probably better off just saying F it and forgetting about the Broncos for a while.

I think I am going to start my vacation break from social media and forums early.

If anyone has any cool recommendations for thing to do in Copenhagen we will be there for a little over a week to avoid american thanksgiving for a fourth year in a row.

See yall on the other side. Hopefully by the time I return some of us have shipped hell maybe ever delivered.

Lots of ideas if you search online for Copenhagen stuff to see, but I might suggest two slight excursions out of Copenhagen via train. One is to take the train up to Helsingor. While in Helsingor, got the the Kronborg Slot/Castle. This was the Castle that evidently the setting for Shakespeare's Hamlet. https://www.visitdenmark.com/denmark/highlights/zealand/kronborg-castle

Go up early in the morning and tour the castle and then my second recommendation is to stop on your way back to Copenhagen at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art https://louisiana.dk/en/ in Humlebaek. Both those sites are a short walk from the train stations, so no need for other transportation.

Final recommendation is take the train over to Malmo, Sweden. Great day trip and lots of great old and new to see there..........museums, Viking ships, modern architecture.

Exactly…. Seriously almost a week total from Wayne MI to Chicago IL

Mine went from Wayne to Chicago then to north-central Ohio to sit for two days.......then to Cleveland.....then back to Chicago where it has sat the last two days. So, YES, getting from Wayne to Chicago takes a circuitous route and mine did that in 11 days.

Yeah those are on the list to do. We picked up Copenhagen Cards so will be seeing as much as we can the first five days then slowing down on the next few.

Up in the air between Malmo and Lund a this point for our day trip to Sweden.

Appreciate the tips.

Bumped again to 11/20 - 11/26
Not sure how that's gonna work with Thanksgiving and everything - so fully expecting to be bumped at least one more time.

Lol we all know it’s not going to matter

So I spoke to my dealer and now it is Nov 26, he giggled at that and said that will not happen since it is not on a train.
There is 1500 dollars in incentive for Florida till 1-3-23 hopefully it beats that. What a Charlie Foxtrot

Can you not just "purchase" ahead of it arriving and cash in on the incentive?

Will have that talk in 2 weeks with sales guy and finance manager.

Finally some good news today. I got a call from my dealer that a case had been opened on my Bronco and it was supposedly getting pulled and should ship within a day or so. After I went in and sat down and expressed my frustrations last week, they called their dealer rep again (who hadn't called them back from earlier in the week). After 4 attempts to get him to respond, they went over his head and were able to get with someone that got things rolling.

I have not received an email yet, but I have a railcar # and the Ford tracker and ordertrack have updated (not the backdoor yet though). I called CSX and the railcar is still in Wayne, MI, no surprise there since it was just this afternoon things started happening. I'll update the spreadsheet when I'm sure it's a go, but I'm excited to finally see some results..hopefully.

I am a feeling pretty chaotic evil today. Might use that free roadside service to call a tow truck on the Bronco through the Ford Pass app just to see what happens.

I do love this idea - we should all call and ask for pickup of the vehicle at MAP

Its pretty crazy that there isnt a single place we can go and that everyone is having to take a different approach with wildly different results.

I hoped that helped. Next time you talk to your deal tell them I will send them $500 if they do the same for mine.

I think it was my offer of peanut butter fudge that did the trick. lol.

I am so tired of this BS. I am driving past 23 Tacomas every day on the Toyota lot on my way to work, and its very difficult to not go for a test drive. My dealer hasn't returned my call in over a week and a half, and the Corporate rep that I talked to Monday who promised to call me today with an update... did not call. It is rough seeing so many people get their broncos and no one can tell me when mine will even ship. They clearly have no desire to sell me a bronco. my dealer has dealer stocks on the lot, that were built after mine.

 

[Trieck32]

Well I finally got a email back from one of the corporate people I tried 2 weeks ago saying I have a rail car # and expected delivery is 11/22. I emailed back immediately and asked for the # but it said my email was blocked.
Then o called customer service and low and behold I have a Rail Car #!!

Dealer said they would let me know when it was moving jut I have bot heard a word from them....

CSX says it's currently in Wayne MI, so not on the move yet.
