Sorry, I lost track of that thread. thanks for the reminder.
Not yet. I need to Get my points from buying the truck before I can use them.
The truck is sitting at a railroad yard 100 miles from me, but its still needs to go another 150 miles to get to the yard that delivers to the dealer :(.
and don't forget to use point to buy accessories you must go into the dealer. I don't think any of the mailorder dealers will let you use points on discounted items. (please let me know if I am wrong as I need to buy some stuff)
Get railroad car number from dealer. only they can provide this number. This is found on the dealers tracking system.
CSX
1. Call the CSX 1-800-235-2352
2. When prompted for location or weight say Location.
3. When prompted for the car initials, say (initials of your car) then wait for the...
the railroad at Wayne plant is actually doing pretty good.
here is some times for my order:
6/21 order accepted by ford.
I think I had my VIN within a week
8/10 window sticker came online
8/16 I think is around when tracking site changed to in production, but no ship date.
8/18 dealer texted...
I also never received an email when I ordered mine either. I did get a call from my salesman saying he received the order but no email.
Plus when I log into my ford site and click on orders, I see nothing.
But with the order code and the dealer code you can call ford and ask them for a VIN.
some times a dealer might have a car they are about to wholesale they will rent you for a decent price. it can't hurt to ask. But I know how expensive it is to rent right now. Wife had to rent in Phila, it was like 700 bucks for a week.
pre covid it was cheaper for us to rent a car local...
What I have seen on my tracker site has been pretty dead on. once it said shipped with a estimated arrival date I had to call dealer to get a rail car number, than I started tracking it with the CSX tracking system.
Mine made it to Louisville last night. around 350 miles in 24 hours so far. including the time it sits in rail yards as they build new trains its averging about 15 mph. If it contines at that rate it will be here this weekend which is 1 week early
I would think you can show them the Xplan when you go to buy it. I did tell them Xplan right from the start but I think you can spring that on them at time before delivery. I would tell them ahead of time so they don't have to print your paperwork twice. they will need to know your Xplan PIN...
I was playing with that last week. I am in Florida, and was running VIN's from online window stickers from some local dealers.
I saw one VIN that actually showed the truck was picked up at Wayne by a semi truck and delivered to a dealer in Indiana. But than the Ranger appeared in Central...
I live in a sandy environment, plus I get into the truck with wet feed from a boat launch at times.
I have always used the Weather Tech All weather model but I want something that covers the sides better.
What do you prefer?
Am I missing a better choice?
I have a sound ordnance B8pt under the drivers seat of my Jeep liberty. I am leaving it in when I trade (its old now) but I sure will miss it. Even hidden sub woofers make a big difference in a car/truck. in time I will probably do something to the ranger. I wanted to do so somethign to my...
I ordered 6/15 but took dealer several days to get order in. accepted 6/21
8/10 window sticker came on line
8/18 PM dealer shows me picture of his software, it shows 8/17 at midnight truck came off line. with delivery date of 9/5-9/11
8/20 tracking shows it has been shipped with 23 days...
When did the estimated delivery show up on the tracking site?
mine had a blend date of 8/16, its shown in production since 8/10
window sticker first came up 8/10, on 8/16 date on bottom of sticker changed to 8/16 but nothing else on sticker changed.
Still has NB (not built?) on upper right side...
