My dealer told me the painted stripe would cause delays because it is late availability. That is corroborated by the order guide.
Maybe your dealer confused the painted stripe for the upgraded vinyl stripe that comes with the appearance package.
For what it’s worth I didn’t order it with my 21 Mach 1 because I knew I wouldn’t be tracking. Personally I regretted it because I found myself wishing I had the wider tires for the look of them. The performance wing of this 7th gen sealed the deal for me because I think it looks really cool.
I was matching the energy of people who are against others buying at over MSRP. So I meant it to come across as if I was against it. But my honest opinion is that I understand both sides (buyer and seller).

Ford does scheduling on Thursdays or so I’ve read. So maybe the Thursday following your order confirmation from Ford. It’s still anyone’s best guess though.
And everything in the elite package except navigation and B&O sound system was rolled into the 700A package. Navigation and B&O sound system come standard on the Dark Horse.
