You have better chances of picking winning lottery numbers than to know for sure when your vehicle will ship. When you combine the QC issues with geographical delivery of vehicles (they don’t use a first in first out methodology), this can be the most frustrating part of the whole new vehicle ordering process. There is no transparency to actual data. There is just generic codes and sometimes the whisper from “someone in the know”. Your vehicle may ship quickly, it may not. It will likely take longer the more rural you are and the lower the volume of cars your dealer sells.

Just seen this yesterday;

quote
“Union Pacific Railroad (UP) is reducing the number of active railcars in its systems in an effort to address mounting congestion and service-related issues in the rail networks. Shippers were asked to voluntarily reduce the number of railcars they ship and that reductions will be mandated if necessary. BNSF Railway is said to be taking similar action.”
