You could order a brand new 26 DH built for you and get it about 3 months before they give you your 25 DH. And it won’t have just been sitting for 6 months, getting all stale and sad.

Yeah - but I would pay MSRP or close and I got this one fully built except for Ricky Ricardo seats for $74 ...

Yeah I figured as much. But I read here in some cases the dealer might….might…work with you to get a new order for the same money, because they would then have an extra DH to sell later.

You could always ask to see if you can get a new DH built for the same money? Couldn’t hurt. Assuming you haven’t already tried…

Also if you’re wanting the handling package (which I’m assuming you are based on the fact that the current one is ā€œfully built minus recarosā€) then production for that won’t even start until April. All 26 MY dark horses with handling package are gonna get pushed to April per the scheduling updates provided my Long McArthur ford ever Tuesday night on YouTube

Well then, - there you go …! I guess the bigger question is ā€œWhyā€ Ford can’t get recalls done in a timely manner and ā€œWHYā€ can’t Ford build cars in a timely manner.

Ford is still stuck in COVID world …

Yikes….I guess depending on your package you order depends on the parts availability. some options push the date back.

Jeez what a friggin mess. I’ve never seen a situation where a car is ready to deliver at the dealer and a stupid recall prevents it from getting in your hands. They cared less about the airbags, and that was much more serious.

It’s just like that only for the DH HP. As far as I know there are no other restrictions or limitations at this time

This recall is more serious than what is being told. Lots of money sitting at dealers They can't be happy. This problem was on the S197 but it was because of drains being plugged. Some was also from the wiper plastic cowl trim not sealing where it attached.

I know it has been said something about some sealant prroblem but who knows. Ford has not always been up front. Not any worse than other manufactures that have a boo boo.

Dealership told me 1/4 of there fleet to be sold standing on the lot can’t be sold because of the recalls. Also, told me Ford is still making them pay the interest on the floor plan for those cars that can’t be sold - now that is just PISSPOOR
