The big problem is, it still has to get released for shipment and the plant will be closed all next week. If it somehow gets released today, you will at least have a chance of it getting shipped out next week.

Well is what it is Earl correct? It be nice to get it sooner. Maybe we’ll get lucky and maybe not. It’s been a year on July 2nd then the dealer had to reorder through one of its other locations after they were told they didn’t have golden allocation.
We actually made our deal when Ford announced the upcoming 500 way back when so patience is definitely a virtue. I’m just hoping there’s no issues with stripes. Took longer than building the beast.

Yes you are correct about it taking longer for the stripes than to build the car. But, after the car was actually received by Penske (07/15/202) and returned to Ford (07/27/2020) it was only at Penske for 12 days. the rest of the time it was waiting to be shipped to Penske. Who knows how long it sat at Penske waiting for a ride back to the plant.
Showed up on the tracker as Released to Body Company on 07/02/2020, Received by Penske on 07/15/2020 and Returned from Penske on 07/27/2020. Received never shows up on the tracker.

Congratulation on picking up the car and to think, it only took 12 months to the day, to get your hands on it.
Ordered 07/30/2019 and picked up on 07/30/2020.

Edit, forgot it was a leap year, so 366 days.
Seems soooooo long ago......

@chase99 - Received - In Transit

Your car has been unloaded from the railcar and has been received by a trucking company for final delivery to your dealer.
Now is the time to call your dealer and get him to expedite the delivery.

I know the ford site is horrible at an eta. They are saying two weeks.
My car was scheduled to be delivered August 10th, over 30 days after it left the rail yard. It was actually delivered July 14th and this including sitting in Ohio for 4 days waiting to be transferred to a new train. Take whatever the Ford website is telling you with a big grain of salt!

That actually makes me feel better. Tells me that there weren’t any issues with the stripes.
Thank you Earl!

Yes, that will not be an issue. As soon as I have any indication its on a railcar and moving, I was told to just reach out and get the rail car number. I will ask to have all hands on deck to retrieve the car from the rail yard. I don't see why I cant pick it up. Its paid for and I have a license plate and insurance. I was once instructed how to get it out of transport mode, but I don't recall the exact steps. The only other thing is removing the shipping spacers. Have jack, will travel, lol. They may work with me on that or at least make sure its on the next transport out of there.
If you don't find out from someone soon how to get the vehicle out of transport mode let me know. My salesperson walked me through taking mine out of transport mode the day it was delivered to the dealership so I could set the modes the way I wanted them prior to taking final delivery.

Tom.....this is what the dealer sent me to take the vehicle out of transport mode.
