Mine did this same thing for several days and then all of a sudden the PALs site showed a second entry with the dealers name as the destination. The next day it arrived at the dealer and the following day COTUS updated as delivered.

Did your truck go by truck or train from Ford?

I am trying to figure out why PALS has never updated. My is on a train waiting to be offloaded.

PALs has been showing the dealers name info for a few days now. I was really hoping it would show up today or tomorrow, as we will be in Dayton for the Air Force Marathon and could go fill out all the paperwork on Saturday after the race. Would only be about an hour from Cincy at that point, but oh well if it does not show up... they can mail all the paperwork just as easily. As of now my Whipple is still probably 3 weeks out, so the hurry is more about the convenience of being nearby for the paperwork and of course making the PCO date.

While the build sheet said Convoy, I believe it went by train to the Jack Cooper yard in MD then they trucked it down to the dealer in VA.

So maybe PALS will update once it's offloaded and put on a truck for the last 20 miles. Thanks.

Thanks for posting that.

Wish I had known about this thread before I started whining and crying like a baby in public every hour on the hour. Probably would not have done it.

For the benefit of others. For whatever reason every time my delivery date got moved up, the very next day it got moved back. That happened twice to me once in order processing the other right before shipping. Overall my order has stayed the same or better.

Initial Order Date: 7/31
Initial Delivery Date: 10/6
Earliest Delivery Date: 9/30
Current Delivery Date: 10/3

Currently in shipping via Rail to Seattle area.
