I'm SO excited for this truck, although to be honest I was glad I was still driving my old truck when I got into a fender bender yesterday morning!
Got my sticker today too! Ordered 3/24, ETA is 5/10 as well. My blend # is 5373.

Once the truck arrives and is unloaded from the railcar it then must wait to be shipped by truck to the dealership. Does anyone know how to get the load number showing it's on a truck?

Probably gets shipped via United Road Autoshippers. No real way to track once it hits the open road... Hopefully you wont go through what I am going through. Dealer can call and see when it was/is loaded and ETA. Personally I'm not real impressed with their services.

You've been going through a bunch of crap so I hope I don't either, LOL. It was in Houston on Friday and I verified that it was unloaded from the railcar before Monday. The ETA was today, but of course that has now disappeared altogether. If they get lost between the rail yard and Tommie Vaughn Ford something is very wrong. Good luck getting yours...hope it's soon!

Hopefully today's the day for BOTH TexRep and me! I've been waiting now for 11 weeks and I'm tired of waiting (I know some have waited a lot longer but this has stretched the limits of my patience).

I'm hoping my truck is on the same truck as Texrep's. I'm almost at 8 weeks waiting. My truck has been sitting at the same place as his. The waiting does suck, but it's more exciting when you actually get the truck versus just buying one off the lot.

That's the reason I ordered it but I've always been one for instant gratification so waiting doesn't suit me.

Default Getting Excited

I am getting excited check in with my dealer and my truck is on schedule to be delivered about 2 weeks earlier than COTUS original ETA date!........Although I have to say this wait is worse than the 1st part where I knew it was gonna be awhile.

I emailed my salesman to see if he can call to find out if my truck has been loaded on a transport yet. Apparently they aren't allowed to call until a vehicle is 5 days late, UNION rules!
