So close... XLT Area 51 Hybrid

[Genie77]

I ordered on June 21, build window was week of December 13. Build date December 16. Estimated delivery between January 9-15.
I called my dealership on Monday January 2 and they confirmed it's on a rail car in Milpitas. I'm in Santa Cruz so it's quite close. Asked if I could just go pick it up. Haha. They said probably next week.

Any idea how long it takes to get it off the rail car??

Drive over the hill, get Ciceros pizza in Cupertino, a couple pre-rolls from Airfield, and drag your hybrid off that damn train!

The holidays don't seemed to have helped with the existing bottleneck of rail yard to dealership transport, but your dealer's optimistic estimate of "probably next week" seems like a safe bet.

Mine has been in a Chicago yard for 3 weeks, and some guys have posted having to wait 2 months in a yard. My dealership has had cars wait as few as three days, so maybe you'll get lucky and it'll show up tomorrow Did you plug your VIN into palsapp.com or United Road?

Mine also been sitting at Milpitas rail yard waiting to be delivered to Salinas Valley Ford... It's been over a week since my sales person told me it was in Milpitas and they checked a few days ago and it's still sitting in Milpitas.

Maybe we will see each other driving around town. I'm in and out of Monterey county often.

Got an update that they were wrong about it being in Milpitas. It's still on a rail car in Mexico. Won't be in next week. Super bummed.

Very impressive, they built it in 1 day. Something tells me that timeline isn't acurate.
Edit: Actually I googled that barring any supply chain issues, some facilities are capable of building a vehicle in one day, that really is impressive.

Idk I've been waiting for mine from the Ford dealership in Morgan Hill CA. The ETA on delivery is next week but who knows. The dealership said it's in Richmond CA.

Sadly on the tracker.. it moved the delivery date to 1/14/2022. Originally when it shipped, it was 12/17/2021, then got pushed to 1/10/2022... and then a few days ago, it updated to 1/9/2022. Just checked a few minutes ago, now shows 1/14/2022...

*sigh*

My is the 14th too!!
