SmellSoGood Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 I emailed my dealer with the information I know of (as per sig). To put the ball in his court, I asked "now tell me what you know" using the field status list. He came back with "6 - Bucked and scheduled for 8/29 delivery". Then I called Ford Customer Relations and she said "Bucked" delivery around Sept. 5 give or take. Uggh...If it comes earlier than those dates and stay's true to what everyone else expects at the same build date, I'll be happy. The wait is killing me!

Grabber Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 I remember when I got Bucked. Bucked 1/17/07 It felt good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grabber Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 You will want your dealer to tell you when you are "Released From Plant". Then have him give you the rail car number. Once it has a rail car number you know it's loaded. Sometimes they sit in the lot for weeks on end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once it has a rail car number you know it's loaded. Sometimes they sit in the lot for weeks on end. Glad to hear you got bucked. I can attest to the sitting in lots for weeks part. 5 weeks sitting in Flat Rock waiting for shipping, 1 week shipping, 2 weeks sitting in the rail yard waiting for delivery to the dealer (so far). Will let everyone know when it arrives. Regards, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burning Blue Star IV Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Alright...please let me know what "bucked" is. It sounded bad when I read the thread title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmellSoGood Posted August 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Alright...please let me know what "bucked" is. It sounded bad when I read the thread title. It means frame just got dropped on the assembly line for production. However, that status could be 7 day's old, which means I'm ahead of the game and delivery will be around 8/23 and not 8/29 or 9/5 as per the dealer and Ford Customer Service.
