Not just rained on, it poured buckets the last few days. We had some bad storms roll thru recently. At least the Flat Rock area didn't get any hail. That would really suck. I am amazed how dirty they get just sitting, even under the hood. They are getting a real world water test sitting out in those lots. Bird crap and all.

Sitting at Auto Alliance, my ETA, as it has been for weeks, is still set for July 2.
What is the normal process? Alliance? Ramp? ship via rail or truck?

After it's "produced" it states "in transit" and moves to ramp 51, aka the black hole where it sits for days weeks or months. Then it moves to ramp 5P for loading where it can also sit for several days. The way you know for sure it's shipped is when the railcar number has been assigned. Even then it can still sit for a day or two until it moves out.

If it's being shipped by truck, then there could be a possibility that Mustangs and other vehicles are on the same carrier. Could be picking up some Mustangs at Flat Rock then pick up some Focuses at Wayne Assembly.

Does your window sticker say "convoy" as shipping method ?
