2013 Boss 302 Build Schedule ?

[dgc76]

Hey, 13boss3oh2:

Any word on your car moving yet? As of this morning, my 5/21 build date car is still at Ramp 51. My dealer has called and called and Ford says nothing about it except that it has not been shipped. The dealer wanted it in their 2 quarter sales, so they tried to really push it's delivery, but no success. Sounds like you are having the same situation. I know I have aggravated Mark too much, and I guess I just need to let it go. This will dampen the excitement once I actually get it.

I called Norfolk Southern customer service, made the right menu selection on the automated phone system, and was routed to a rather surprised employee... He was like 'who is this?' when I asked if he could track my rail shipment... When I told him that I had ordered a vehicle shipped on their line, I was looking for an ETA. He just sighed and asked me if I had a rail car number? I wondered if the thought I was just some nutjob that found their phone number (well he got that part right =p ), and if I was going to ask a lot of stupid questions w/o knowing the rail car number.

I bet those rail freight guys will be glad when all of the Bosses have been delivered.

Heh, I was courteous and polite, and had my rail car #. Call took less than 20sec. I even said "I apologize if I reached the wrong number to check a rail car ETA". Hey, we are paying $795 for our delivery, I don't think a quick call is that big a deal.

Mark,
My dealer said my ETA was bumped up. Can you verify this for me. I am probably the only person here hoping at this point that I don't get it early. I still have to sell my 06 GT and I will be in Florida next week and gone to Cali for 3 weeks in late July.

VIN 1ZVBP8CU9D5240719

Thanks Mark, Mike

As of today's update:

In Transit - Received - Mm08 (Autoport Limited ) - Ramp 51, Auto Alliance, MI - Jun-29-2012, 11:51 ET - ETA, Jul-07-2012

Thanks for providing the rail car # Mark. I called Norfolk Southern customer service, made the right menu selection on the automated phone system, and was routed to a rather surprised employee... He was like 'who is this?' when I asked if he could track my rail shipment... When I told him that I had ordered a vehicle shipped on their line, I was looking for an ETA. He just sighed and asked me if I had a rail car number? I wondered if the thought I was just some nutjob that found their phone number (well he got that part right =p ), and if I was going to ask a lot of stupid questions w/o knowing the rail car number. After I gave it to him, 5 seconds later I had my ETA of July 4th. Do you know when my car was 1st loaded on a train? With no delays it only takes about 6 day for the trip.

I'm only curious about the exact day because I can delay my vacation, as I was planning on taking all next week off to take care of the car stuff. If it doesn't get delivered to the dealer until after the 4th, I can work next Mon & Tues, and have the rest of the week off plus the following Mon & Tues. I only called them because that last rail update you provide is another location that exists inside the rail road system computer. "Tolairlin, OH" does not exist on any map that I can find.

I was going to wait until tomorrow to ask for another update in the hope of a real location, like Mechanicville, Buffalo, etc. Depending on where it is by Sunday, that should give me a good idea when it will hit Ayer, MA, and then an extra day or so to get loaded on a truck. I know some people have had their cars sit at rail heads waiting for a truck to make the last leg, and who knows if the July 4th holiday will lead to shortage of drivers?

Thanks for taking to the time to do this for all of us Mark, it really helps me out trying to plan my vacation days and personal schedule to get this done.

"Tolairlin, OH" could be a rail yard name.

I'm not aggravated!

 

[ace72ace]

Sure, just doesn't show up on google search, kinda strange. I'll hit you up for an update tomorrow, unless you are feeling generous and check it again now... =D

Thanks Mark, you are a real stand-up guy. May you have a new Boss in your garage soon!

 

[ace72ace]

So which is he? A stand up guy or aggravated?! I am just so happy my beast is on the train that it's ok if it gets here before or after the 4th. This time next week I'll be elbow deep on my 6th coat of zaino!

Cool! Could be a pre-4th delivery... ;D

And another fictional location that exists on no map, hahaha, this is too funny. Hopefully the next update gets me close to a real world 'google searchable' location.
