  1. Ford's Allocation System & How It Affects Your Order + Current Mustang Scheduling Notes (by Long McArthur)

    A couple points (as you're the 2nd person to say this): 1. My understanding that priority codes really only matter for the purposes of dealers determining in which order they would like to receive their vehicles, not necessarily when Ford schedules them. And in theory (although this may not be...
  2. Ford just removed my production week entirely......looks like the tracking site is not to be trusted? - UPDATED

    This is deifnitely an interesting data point for future knowledge, because before you shared your experience, the common assumption was once you had a VIN you were SOL...
  3. Ford's Allocation System & How It Affects Your Order + Current Mustang Scheduling Notes (by Long McArthur)

    I worked for Ford's CSD years ago. Trust and believe, the people (yes people, as there are likely multiple either CSRs or "Executive Liaisons" managing the account) responding on the forum are not paid nearly enough to stress over our comments (they're not even Ford employees) and I guarantee...
  4. Ford's Allocation System & How It Affects Your Order + Current Mustang Scheduling Notes (by Long McArthur)

    For the Mustang, Ford built stock orders before retail orders. Most of the Mustang production in May and June was specifically for dealers.
  5. Ford's Allocation System & How It Affects Your Order + Current Mustang Scheduling Notes (by Long McArthur)

    The simple answer is the vast majority of purchases at the dealer are for stock vehicles (it's only within the past few years that more & more buyers have been requesting custom orders), and ultimately, the dealer is Ford's customer (not us, the buyers) since it's the dealer that moves the...
  6. Nite Pony Package vent.........

    What does the exterior of the car being black have to do with heat management when you're going to be sititng inside the car with A/C?
  7. Mustang U.S. Retail & Fleet Scheduling Only This Week (6/15/23) - No More Dark Horse Stop Build (Still Constrained)

    Hopefully though, more of us get scheduled for August. The UAW contract expires on 9/14/23, and a potential strike would cause even more production delays.
  8. Mustang U.S. Retail & Fleet Scheduling Only This Week (6/15/23) - No More Dark Horse Stop Build (Still Constrained)

    From what I gather, the information the OP posted is for August, not July.
  9. Mustang U.S. Retail & Fleet Scheduling Only This Week (6/15/23) - No More Dark Horse Stop Build (Still Constrained)

    No...no, it's merely Supply Chain issues and human error. Where your positivity!? :sun:
  10. S650 everywhere at the Flat Rock plant! [updated w/ video!]

    The worst they'll do is just ask him to delete the videos, or have YouTube delete them, especially since he didn't expose any real proprietary stuff. They're not going to exhaust a bunch of legal resources into going after a random online car hobbyist playing with their toy (drone), and I'd be...

  12. S650 everywhere at the Flat Rock plant! [updated w/ video!]

    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...
  13. S650 everywhere at the Flat Rock plant! [updated w/ video!]

    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.
  14. In production boys! As of 6/7 ordered 4/2.

    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
  16. In production boys! As of 6/7 ordered 4/2.

    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.
