Evergreen Ford in Issaquah doesn't ask for a deposit either.
If you go there, Ask for Kelly Bader, He took care of me with my last purchase, and made it a very painless process.

I have an appointment Tuesday at Car crazy to get the front windows and a 6" strip on windshield. Are you still happy with the window tint on yours? So far I really love this truck.
Any pictures out there of their front window tints?

Back in my day, that used to be an Albertsons and Eastgate was a working class neighborhood. 😂
Remember when there was an airport there? 🤔

I think the end of the runway was around the Embassy Suites, if memory serves.

In my day, Albertsons was it's own chain, not just a rebranded Safeway...lol.
It's actually the other way around. Albertson's bought Safeway. At least a remnant of Albertson's that was controlled by Cerberus Capital Management after the original Albertson's broke up in 2006. Cerberus took it's regional Albertson's it purchased in Texas/New Mexico and kept expanding its empire. Eventually taking back over all the other Albertson's pieces (including the Northwest) and then buying Safeway in 2014. And later Haggen, after it practically bankrupted that company.

Yep, that's right. There was a helipad there until recently.

Interesting. I've spent so many years over seas I didn't realize they had become the same entity. I just noticed when stopping at Albertsons in Spanaway that the packaged bakery stuff was all the same as Safeway which I am more familiar with/used more over the years. Having grown up in Denver we had Albertsons, Safeway, and King Soopers and they were all very different. Out here my preference is still Haggen, but we don't have one nearby.

How did you find out about the towns it stopped in..When I call the UP line, it only tells me the day the rail was in Nogales, and then departing dates and times, but UP line is not saying a town of departure. The only info I get is the destination date, which I don't want to rely on.

Yeah, I helped another member a few weeks ago, and it doesn't seem to say the town names any longer along the way. :(

re: Bellevue airfield
As a kid, I used to run across the airfield runway to get to the Fisher Drugstore where the Toyota dealership is at now to buy candy and Matchbox cars.

If you look closely when you drive I-90 through Eastgate there are a few light poles still painted orange and white as warning to aircraft as approach obstacles.

Although I was bummed to not get scheduled yesterday (chatted with Ford online since emails did not seem to go out this week), I lobbed an email at my dealer to see if I could at least see how many orders they have left to schedule. They say 46! Down from 127 when I asked on February 17th. I consider that to be pretty good news!
March 25th to now update. Dealer tells me he has 35 unscheduled.

127 in Feb.
46 in March.
35 in June.

Not sure if I am happy or not.

I would interpret that with the big jump between February and March, is that Ford cleared out all the easy to build backlog. Now with the slow reduction since, they are working through constrained vehicles. Not even 5 a month it appears. So, without additional constrained parts arriving and the same rate continues, it appears there will be around 20 left unbuilt at the end of this model year from your dealer.

But rates could improve. But here's to hoping you're one of the next ones scheduled!! It can happen. Someone has to be next.
