Truck was built on 1/4 with a delivery date of 1/16. No truck yet. Ford has not updated any rail info in weeks. Dealer has no idea where the truck is. Dealer put a trace in this morning. Why does this have to be so difficult? Five months of waiting and now they dont know where it is! Perfect! I hope this truck is worth all the BS it has been to get it.

That doesnt sound right to me? Mine was built on the 18th and I have gotten rail info all along the way. Mine has been on Norfolk Southern for about 3 days and has gotten to final yard to be picked up now by truck?

Is there any way for me to track the truck or am I stuck with what the dealer tells me?

Also Greg put this up the other day - if you know the car number, you can call NS automated system and it tells you everything. 800 241 9230 and say "TRACING". It will tell you where it is and where its going and ETA

My truck is scheduled to arrive today 1/23. Built 1/6 fyi. If not here this week...I wont have a vehicle until it does arrive. And guys, Im about sick of waiting. Not getn another vehicle, just tired of waiting and tired of dealers.

This isnt a TVR or FOOSE hotrod...it's a Ford production line truck, thus, even if it takes long--we should at least have infornation to keep tabs.

You think Ford doesnt know where their inventory is?? Ha, ya right.....they know damn well where it is.

COME ON RAPTOR--GET HERE TODAY DAMMIT!! :Jedi:

PS-My dealer is 1K miles away....so even when it does arrive...I have to wait at least another two days + two plane rides + a cab ride until I get it! FU** SoCal Ford dealers and thei 10K premiums, 5K order deposits and outrageous state sales tax!!! BS!!

Stu, yours was built and released in VERY QUICK time frame.

It's not normal for a Truck built on the 4th, to still not have a traincar update.
But it can happen. Do you have graphics on your order?


I had a Super cab built on Jan 13 BUILD DATE: 13-JANUARY-2012 and the first update I got was on Jan 19th. NOTHING for a week, then
