Ford Australia has also told me my car is 'in transit' between the factory and the docks.

Do I interpret this as 'its sitting in a carpark'

Or

'Its on a train to baltimore' ?

Also been told late May delivery, which seems like a tight schedule compared to previous deliveries. :shrug:

I know, it's confusing at best!

I don't get all that excited by Ford Australia's 'estimates' but I believe Meagan is from Ford Service US, I can only assume she did not realise mine was Aus bound and figured it was for local markets. I can't see how the car could be built on 22/03 and delivered half way around the world 3 weeks later. The boat takes 6 weeks!

Starting to feel everyone elses frustrations- makes it very hard to plan around/for!

The wait really doesn't bother me, so long as the information I get is accurate!

regardless, I just love reading the posts and pics from those who already have theirs and genuinely feel their excitement.

Cheers-

Just adding my car was due for build on 21/03, ETIS update now shows built on 22/03!
It seems I have a Mustang!

I feel like handing out cigars!
I don't smoke, but just to share your happiness, I will take one thanks. :D
My car's build date being 23-03-2016 and booked through the dealer in GC. I am hoping our cars will be on same boat.:)

I believe they will be on Tijuca or Tamerlane. :D The backlog for winter must have been cleared by now and I also hope Ford has improved in last few months organizing the things better. I think I am too optimistic ? :headbonk:

Haha ! Probably!

I think my car will have to be on Tijuca as well, in order to arrive at my latest delivery date quoted.... I just think it would be unlikely given the timeframe previous cars have had for shipping/delivery.

It would require minimal downtime waiting in carparks at any stage for that to happen, which i have learned isnt wise to expect :/

I hope they prove me wrong though! Would be very happy if they are right!

Hmm, information from dealer said I have a 6th of April blend date but no window sticker yet... Only just got a VIN too - either the timelines have shortened a bit or the dealer isn't right.

Oh well, at least I have a VIN :)

I think both of ours will be on the same boat. Mine was done on the 18th of March. So it will be interesting to see what happens.

I had confirmation a few weeks ago that my car had made it to the port. I keep checking 2WGlobal multiple times a day, but still get the "No records found" advice...

Not sure which box I need to be putting into 2WG Track and Trace -- Booking Number, Bill of Lading, etc - so I've been trying each one - one by one.

Anyone able to please tell me? Getting "No records found" 4 times every time I want to check is killing my soul!

Hey guys,

starting to panic a little . . . . .I ordered a manual transmission as per my contract, triple checked it. I entered my VIN in ETIS and it says automatic transmission, has anyone else encountered this? I dont have a blend date yet and there is only basic info, but surely this cant be a fuck up?
