TLDR on the video:

-Cars are built at plant, waiting for OKTB
-Most likely reasons for delay are 4th of July holiday and Ford being extra precautious on quality control
-Content creators have driven the cars but can't talk about it
-Media drive(content creators releasing driving videos) planned for July sometime
-Likely cars will ship when media drive happens or right after
-Worst case scenario speculated at deliveries end of July, early August

I'm ok with this. I'd prefer it earlier...but i'm ok with this.

Long as I can drive it on my birthday in September

After the disastrous Bronco situation and the catastrophe that the Corvette is going thru I don't blame Ford one bit holding up deliveries to assure maximum QC to avoid another new vehicle debacle.

I am okay waiting. Let’s just hope there is no hail storm at the plant where so many cars are parked outside.

So did he use Rick's Video? OK for him to do?

I was thinking the same thing with this crazy weather

Before Rick took the video down stangmode left a comment asking to use it and Rick said it was ok.

You know what I am concerned about, is they release the cars and there are still defects and recalls. Then it was all for nothing.

Not a whole lot, other than the tech on the interior, that is going to be different than the S550. Gen 4 5.0 has been out since 2021 in the F150, sans the dual TB intake. Sheet metal changes. Suspension is the same.

This! People keep saying they are scared to buy a 1st model year vehicle…. I’m like… this is the coyote mustang in its final form! It’s been perfected from 10-15 years of design refinement

That's why I think everyone calling this a Bronco sized mess in the making are over-reacting...

Nobody is looking at any of the cars that have already been produced. Trust me

I thought the same thing! Hopefully he did not use the video without permission.

One major reason I can think of is a maybe software update that needs to be applied before shipping. If we’re structural I’d assume they wouldn’t have produced that many.
