Tracking to Hawaii

[hontak]

Any one have experience with logistics and shipping times to Hawaii ?

We just ordered a 2025 XL for my sister in Hilo, Hawaii. It's been scheduled for production next week - just received the window sticker.

Of course it says 'convoy' but that's probably only to the port.. HA!! Also, I tried looking into PALSAPP website and see that it's been disabled. Is there another way to track convoy shipments?

Mahalo!

I shipped a car there (Hilo) from the Bay Area (Oakland). I used Pasha. It was almost $2k with taxes and fees. I think it was about a month between dropping it off and picking it up.

If you're ordering a build, why can't it just be delivered to a Ford dealership on the Big island? That seems easier than getting it on the mainland and THEN shipping it over. I've thought about getting a second Maverick to have at the house in Kona when the X5 dies. I think I'd just buy one off the lot that's already there. Which makes me think; are the destination fees higher because it's HI?

Hi Bill,
Thank you for your response. Big island is void of available inventory, new or used .
We were lucky enough to snag an allocation that wasn’t spoken for from Orchid Isle.
That’s the unit I’m tracking. I’m trying to plan a plane flight in coordination with the truck getting to the dealership.

Mahalo !

Wow, no Mavs available on the Big island! I've noticed a few, but never looked at the dealership lots. 9 out of 10 pickups there are Tacomas, I'm sort of thinking of getting one of those to have there 'cuz the parts and repairs will be that much easier. But, it's a Toyota, so parts and repairs aren't really needed....

Cool that you found a solution, and it's on-island. I don't know how much it is to bring one over from Oahu, it looks like maybe $500.

I ordered our Maverick from Orchid Isle Ford 9/28/24 and took delivery on 5/8/25, to give you a representative time-line. The Ford tracking website never gave accurate tracking., not even close. Unfortunately Orchid isle ford is what I call "a want to be" dealership. They do not participate in the ford parts or accessories website and are not listed on the website as a dealership.
