Mine was unloaded on a railroad car on 08/14 and has been sitting on a trailer in Jacksonville since last Monday.

Gisarm,

How did you find out that yours was off the rail car?? I can pick it up for you in Jax and deliver..lol. Mine was shipped via railcar as of Aug 9. The CSX number tells me that it arrived Cincinnati on Aug 17 - scheduled to leave Cincy on Aug 21 and arrive Kentucky on Aug 24. But... Ford Customer Relationship tells me that it should arrive at the dealer just north of Jax on Aug 24. Would like to know what gives... Any idea how to tell when it comes off the rail car and loads on a trailer????

Thanks Jim I appreciate your thoughtfulness. I picked it up yesterday though.

The dealer told me where it was; they tracked it through the trucking company Allied. Allied loaded it onto a trailer and wouldn't budge until they got the trailer full. The screwy part about it was they delivered at least 5 loads to the same dealer that week. It was luck of the draw that mine was the odd man out and had to wait until 8 more cars came in to fill the trailer.

Gisarm,

I talked to Norfolk Southern this morning - my car should have arrived in "Kentucky" was all they said (Maybe Danville??). I don't know if it will be trucked to the dealer in NE FLA or still come by train a little longer. Dealer (read salesman) has no idea Oh well - will still hope for late this week..

Just talked to Norfolk Southern again this afternoon (Wednesday). My car has left Georgia, ETA Jacksonville Aug 24 at 4:00 PM. Maybe, just maybe Saturday will be the day!!!!
