Rail yard to Dealer

[asteele711]

The wait from rail yard to dealer is worse than order day to shipped in my opinion.

My truck is 1.5 hours away from my dealer, sitting, waiting to be picked up by a truck and my delivery dates keep moving out. Since it’s been delivered to final rail yard on 1/20 my ETA has gone from 1/26 - 1/30 - 2/3 - 2/7.

Dealer says there’s nothing they can do to expedite, has anyone had any luck getting there’s picked up knowing it was at the final stop?

Been there. My truck sat at the truck yard for almost 2 weeks back in September. Also only 1 hour down the road. Beyond frustrating. The end is in sight. Soon you will be cruising. Hang in there

Call your dealer and make sure they have (in stock) or can order the recall parts otherwise you'll still be waiting after it even gets there

mine arrived at the yard the same day as yours, they marked it as hot but it still has not moved. They also can’t order parts until after the inspection so could still be a while. Sucks!

Same boat here... Tracker shows delivered 1/28. Dealer says hauler broke down and they haven't received it yet. AND there's an issue with the window sticker so they are waiting on a new one from Ford.... AND there's still the recall to fix. UNBELIEVABLE!

I did and they said they have to have in their inventory before they can order parts. I would understand if it was some expensive part, but we’re talking about some rivets…

Mine arrived at the rail yard on Sunday. I think it's much better knowing that it's 90 minutes from the dealer than the uncertainty on when it will leave Dearborn. At least I know that it is close.

My ETA moved from 2/6 to 2/4 this morning. Due to weather, I figure that I'll get the truck on Friday or Saturday. I haven't felt this close to getting it since just before my August build date was pushed back almost 2 months.

True but knowing it’s so close is killing me.

I sold my truck Friday thinking it’d be delivered last Saturday like the tracker said, but that didn’t happen.

I have seen others (not just Raptors) who have had their trucks sit 4 weeks in the rail yard, so while I am planning on making the 2 hour drive to pick up my truck at the end of the week, I would not be surprised - but would be pissed, if the damned thing doesn't reach the dealer until March.
