Love you Ford somehow a Miracle happened and my truck got pushed out of the Yard and on to a Rail car in all of 2 days heading West to WA!! After a few misery stories I thought I would add hope that a truck going long distance once in a while leaves quickly. COTUS system was clear, "Normal shipping time for your area is 12-28 days?". Hopefully things will continue to go smoothly.

Don't want to burst your bubble, but be prepared for your truck to sit at Interbay in Seattle for days on end. I am now thinking that it will take as long to go from Seattle to Kent, which is about 20 miles, than it did to go from Dearborn, MI to Seattle, WA. I have a delivery date of the 20th, 8 days from now.

Was on a railcar on the 27th of August. It arrived in Seattle on Sept 9th where it is still sitting.

I hope I am wrong for both of us.

No bubble to burst and I know I am over some pretty big hurdles. Left the gates on a Rail car and got through production. Next Journey Kent WA from their I am confident my dealer knows how to get trucks delivered. If not I still will hit my personal target dates at 98.6% confidence. Original time for me in head was want by 75 days really pissed by 90 days. I ordered 7/31 and am pretty happy so far and expect to continue to be. If I become too unhappy I do have other choices but at this point waiting this one out for me is the best choice.

Hopefully Remltr your situation changes soon. For whatever reason your truck has had a hard time most of the way through the process. I do feel for you a lot. For example my truck I pay for has been at Ford for many many months and is finally being replaced with this new one. It has taken 2 years to get here and a ton of months. My luck I will be like the one water guy who gets the rare 2018 who still has locks and latches that do not operate in the NW. If so I promise the RAV dept doesn't have to worry about a repeat customer my 2018 will soon become a sports Car with an old truck to do truck stuff!

OK now I am starting to lose optimism. Mine has updated now with nothing in the days to delivery section and the upper section that used to have the Delivery Date listed, is completely gone. Keep checking to see if it updated, nothing. PALs is still only showing pending.
