Mine still says it's in Albina Yard. But it must have moved across the yard because it restatused with a new date and time of 4:03 am on Dec 7th. It had previously arrived the same time and date yours did. Also the final destination date and time has slipped to December 9th at 9:29 pm. Hopefully the Union Pacific saga of ends tomorrow night. Or maybe sooner.

Yes mine moved to Dec 9th as well. I'm guessing delivery to the yard tomorrow and maybe a truck would leave sometime next week. Maybe I can pick up at dealer next weekend?

I am hoping I get mine early next week. Maybe too optimistic?

I just checked now and it says it arrived tonight at 7:12 PM. I assumed it means arrived at its final destination since it did not actually say the destination name. It just says, "arrived." Which I have never heard it say before. Oddly, it says it is anticipated arriving at "Industry" on December 10th now. I don't think it knows whether it's coming or going.

I will be watching for it to appear on Palsapp overnight when their system updates. Hopefully soon!

Tomorrow is the day I pick mine up. I'm immediately taking it over the pass to Eastern Washington to go camping.

I'll also take the drone out, so next week you'll see some (hopefully) cool pictures.

Well folks I received notice of production date and VIN assigned. Hopefully no unforeseen delay (i.e. supply chain backlog etc.) Needless to say my excitement is building up. cheers

It statused tonight as "Arrived at Industry." So I now await for auto transport service from Barnes Yard Portland to Olympia. So, tomorrow, or a week+.

UPDATE FRI 12/10 9 AM: It says the rail car has been emptied and released for re-assignment. WOOT!!

Humorously, it took only 4-1/2 days to make it from the Factory in Mexico to nearly the Oregon border (1,300 miles). But took nearly six days from when it first entered the Portland Metro Area to finally get to the Auto Transport Facility at Barnes Yard in NW Portland (22 miles).

FYI...changed my screen name. Now you will see my "Little Orange" on screen and around the Sound.

I checked this morning and UP status was EMPTY so guess that means they unloaded. Now we'll have to start following the Palsapp I guess.

I see Mullinax Ford in Olympia has an XLT Hybrid statused as In Transit. I wonder if it will be on the same transporter that's bringing up my Cyber Orange Lariat from the Portland rail yard?

I don't believe Mullinax shows incoming customer orders on their website, because mine is not on there. So maybe the Hybrid listed is a customer order backout? Although the window sticker makes it appear like dealer stock order. But the VIN number is very low. Much lower than mine. So it was a very early order. Maybe dealers got in some Hybrid orders early before Ford shut them down?

I asked the dealer to not drill my bumper for the plate, so now I'm between leaving it off altogether (which is illegal in WA) and getting some holder for the FX4 hooks.

Which way have you guys gone/are you planning to go?
