It can be any number of reasons why. The main reasons are: 1. The cars are awaiting a final quality check/review 2. There's a stop-sale due to a recall. 3. The cars require additional paint/installation that couldn't be done on the main assembly line. 4. Perhaps the most common (per the...

On the plus side, it's currently the warm season in Michigan and they've been pretty dry as a recent. So this is as good of a time, if any, for cars that are sitting outside.

When did you place your order? Aside from you not having the Magneride, we both have virtually the same spec. I'm still unscheduled clean.

On the whole, yes. https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/2024-cousins.157135/page-2#post-3210099

The dealer doesn't make much money off new car sales (Service/Parts and Used Cars are their bread & butter), especially if the price you're paying is MSRP or below and when it comes to a low-volume vehicle like the Mustang.

I imagine it's not so much an "expense," thing, but there's a security and liability risk with revealing too much of their manufacturing process to the public, because you never know you might be watching those videos/photos. There's some stuff that's common amongst all OEMs, but there is also...

Nostalgia is a heck of a drug! :crazy:

There's a middle ground with everything. If you read employees forums as the The Layoff, watch the news reports about the rampant turnover in its C-Suite & their steadily declining Supplier Relation scores, or track the huge numbers recalls/work stoppages they've done recently, There are a lot...

Part of the reason some folks aren't willing to give Ford the benefit of the doubt is because of how they botched the launches for their other vehicles (Maverick, Bronco, F-150 Lightning, etc.) due to quality/engineering defects that weren't addressed pre-production. So of course, folks are...

TL;DR = Ford is a mess (he's not wrong about that) But yeah, if we want a factory order Mustang, we're at their mercy and there's not much we can do about it besides rant.

Your guess is as good as ours...

I have a bone to pick with GM, so I'm boycotting them. I know there are foreign options, but I really want to Buy American.

Yes. https://www.nhtsa.gov/newer-cars-are-safer-cars#:~:text=Vehicle safety has changed drastically,safety features to protect you.

At least modern cars are safer to drive... :inspect:

The main thing that disappoints me with the S650 is the Instrument Cluster. I'm still struggling to get over how gaudy the two tablets look. They didn't even try to hide the value engineering. That said, what else am I going to buy if not the S650? I don't want a Truck/SUV and foreign is not...

Good luck seeing out of the Camaro. And I have a personal beef wih GM. So for me, they were never an option.

GTs with the PP, from what I've seen reported here, are being scheduled.

Unfortunately, another potential black swan event for those of us still unscheduled will be UAW contract negotiations (and a possible strike). Those will begin in July ahead of the mid-September expirartion, and word is they will be targeting Ford first.

Assuming they just started production last week, the amount we see in the video doesn't seem unreasonable. A lot of them built so far may already in transit to the dealers and wouldn't be parked at FRAP. Usually, cars sitting like this are on hold for additional work of some kind

The exterior is awesome-looking. The interior still needs to grow on me. I still prefer the S550 interior by far.
