Question for you: How do you have this level of details on the whereabouts of your truck? Is Ford Performance sharing this with you? Mine hasn't moved but is listed to move to New Boston's rail yard at some point. Curious if the updates begin to get more detailed once it actually starts to move like yours..... thanks!I got my rail car today and checked in with csx, scheduled to arrive at destination depot end of this week… another step closer
Over the last month, I've received consistently better info from regular Ford CS Chat than when I've engaged Ford Performance.Question for you: How do you have this level of details on the whereabouts of your truck?

the most recent ford.com chat person supplied me the rail car number once it was on the move. previously they had updated me that it was at the new boston yard. Then it was as easy as calling the CSX hotline which told me where the car would be next and when the car would reach final destination. Dealer should have rail car # once it is on the move as well.Question for you: How do you have this level of details on the whereabouts of your truck? Is Ford Performance sharing this with you?

My dealer sent me screen shots this morning from their system which shows the auto transport carrier picking up my truck from the rail yard with an ETA to the dealer. From that it looks like that's something a dealer should be able to predict - once it's been scheduled to occur.From what i gather we cant get this information ahead of time, it appears in the system after it has happened. In general there really isn't tracking accessible to any customer or dealer facing portal/person answering questions like:
<snip>
when will a carrier pick it up to take it from the rail depot to the dealer?
thats by far the best info i have heard of anyone having, seems this VINVIEW thing needs to be turned customer facing... or at least all the dealers need to buy into using itAs far as dealer visibility goes - apparently they can see the GPS of the car carrier and track that location once it's loaded on there. Just got a text from the sales guy telling me it was on the move en route to the dealer and the location - was next town up the road from the rail yard. Now IF it actually shows up there, need to see when I can get up there before Saturday... (it's 2+ hours away).
