He doesn't know our secrets!

Just get the rail car number and you can track it yourself! Your dealer CAN give you that number!
Tell your dealer to run mine please lol

I feel your pain.. Mine is on stopship and been in a yard for 13 or 14 days now.. Original ETA was 11/17, then 11/29 and now 11/25.. As if the dealership is open on Thanksgiving...
Just curious, were you supposed to have a spray-in Bedliner? Trying to figure out what the glitch is.

I ordered back in August, so it was built before the spray in became an issue. Delivered yesterday!

Using the VIN history, I've been tracking my Maverick's progress from Mexico. This is the route if you were driving, but it's close enough for me.. It was shipped on 10/20 and took 10 days to make it to Illinois (Keep in mind, that I live in SC..) From there, it traveled down south as far as Atlanta and then east. Currently, it was unloaded from the railcar on Saturday and I was told it could take 2 days or 2 weeks to make the rest of the trip to the dealer (~100mi). I just thought it was interesting enough to share with you fine people..

Fingers crossed for you! Looks like it went through Tulsa, OK where my dealership is located. Do you have an estimate of how long it to get to Tulsa by any chance?

I ordered in June, was built 10/19, shipped 10/20. So basically the same build and ship date, so mine shouldn't be a spray in liner issue either. Just wish Ford would be upfront and tell us what the issue is, not a great customer Service move. Congrats on your delivery

I can look it up and try to figure it out.

Thanks. Don’t worry about it unless it’s something easy to verify. Just curious.
I don't have any info on actual stops in OK, but it took 10 days to go from the factory to Illinois.

A big issue is availability of rail line scheduling.

If it looks like your Maverick is taking a route that makes no sense it may very well be the only route available for the train to travel to it's final destination.

The train may also load and unload at multiple locations.

I bet someone on this board works, has worked or knows someone who works in the rail industry.

I'm willing to go down to Nogales and pick up my Maverick at the border! šŸ˜†
Im willing to help build the truck at Hermosillo if it gets here faster but I’ll meet you in Nogales if that’s an option.

I have tracked my Maverick Hybrid. It should arrive December 25th. I have been a good boy this year, and Santa will have it in his sleigh. He promised me it never has seen rain, just a little snow.

I worked on the railroad for 10 years. That's where my user name comes from.
I guarantee that the railcar my Maverick was on, was on many different trains. It was probably in a block of the cars that left the factory together. Along the way, that block was switched out to the same tracks where other similarly destined rail cars were headed. This happens at most of the rail yards where the trains stopped. It's just the way they move freight.

Having worked on the railroad, I know what it takes and I am extremely grateful for all the crews that worked to get my Maverick here safely. It's not just engineers and conductors. It's also train dispatchers, railroad MoW crews, car and locomotive shop workers and signal maintainers. Also included are the pencil pushers, as we used to call them..
