Ford chat updates on ETA

[dollybud]

If Ford thinks I'm taking delivery of a convertible in October they are really on that dope. I'm drawing a line in the sand. That line is September 18th. May as well just cancel and re-order later on at that point. I have a $1000 down but I'd rather eat that than park my daily outside all Winter just to start making steep payments on something I didn't even get to use hardly. At that point I'd rather just eat the $1000 and park the daily in the garage all Winter and re-order for Spring or early Summer delivery next year.

I hear you. Placed order for a base coup only option active exhaust June 7 dealership telling me September delivery. In 2 months now have not heard anything from Ford.. With all the bull shit if September no delivery they can ship it next spring as far as I’m concerned . How many orders have been placed, and how many is Ford going to build?

So that’s bare minimum $200 million worth of product that’s sitting right now

I’d say closer to $400 million at this point.

Ordered base coup only option active exhaust June 7 and dealership saying September delivery. With all the bull shit going on I don’t think thats happening. Maybe it will be a Christmas present and hopefully no snow yet So I will just garage it till spring.

You’re probably right, I was going impossibly conservative assuming all base eco boosts lmao. Actual average price of what’s sitting out there probably is closer to $60k. I guess they really don’t need that money yet

Although a September delivery sounds unlikely I suppose it could happen. I have a similar spec on order; Oxford White base 301A GT 6 Speed with Active Exhaust. A September production date sounds way more likely. I ordered mine on 6/1 and got an email on 7/13 for production slated for 9/4. Priority code 19 from the dealer. Assuming OKTB is achieved this month I'm hoping to have mine by October in upstate NY. Fingers crossed. Hopefully I can put a few miles on it before the snow flies...

What are we down to? 3200-3500 dealers in the US? For context. That’s 2 cars per dealership for the lots.

You forget Canada's orders are in there too...

The constraint report that we get in this group is US retail orders

Heck even ordering 2 mos ago, not having a vin number, I may still be waiting in June 2024 for mine.

 

[Butkus1951]

Have you heard anything from your dealer? Mine said likely by next week, we might be on same truck, century ford only getting 2.

They don’t know anything I told them that OKTB was reached lol I am assuming I’ll be on the first truck to my dealership just don’t know when the first truck will go to my dealership but he did say it will be 6-7 days once it ships once the car ships then your dealer will have a lot more info as they can track it via GPS

Same. The car can not be actually tracked until it is "shipped".

The dealership can request a VINview that will show where the car is in real time, this is available after the car is built.
