01/24/2022 Build Week

[Atlee]

I both agree and disagree. They should have all the parts in advance. If you have all the parts needed to build the truck their wouldn’t be this problem. Instead, a partially built truck will be sitting in some obscure lot for many months waiting for a few items. If I knew it would take this long to get my truck I would have held onto my old truck longer or looked for another one elsewhere. Instead, many of us traded a vehicle in advance of the build for an agreed price and we’re told production was ramping up and you’d have a 6 to 8 week wait. If this goes to May I’ll have waited 10 months.
Ford is greedy and wants your money, so they keep building partially completed trucks knowing your locked in and have no choice but to wait.
I too believe that when the chips arrive they will go into trucks currently in production and those chips they currently have are going into orders by dealerships to be sold on their lots now. It’s less productive for them to pull a vehicle from a lot somewhere on or off site, potentially tow it to a production area (if necessary) and complete it. Those vehicles on a chip hold most likely are not a priority to them.

I have a truck I will either trade in or sell depending on which is more. But that wasn't going to happen until the new truck showed up.

I am actually surprised but I got an email from Ford last night stating my truck was built (and going through final inspections, etc). The tracker still shows In Production. The built email I received said the estimated delivery is Feb 11 through 17. It will be going from KC to Granger in Iowa.
Is this really happening?!

P.S. I also got a competitive trade-in offer from Granger yesterday. I figured I would have to sell it in my area and then just fly up there. Well, the trade-in offer is good and will also save me quite a bit of tax. And, I get to take my dog with me to get my new truck! Lol

I't is nice to hear things are coming together for you, gives me hope (and a bit of envy). Looking forward to seeing a photo of the new ride, and feel free to put the dog in the picture. ?

It’s a crap shoot. In July of last year you didn’t know what the market was going to do. At this point the trade value would likely be less being my truck was a year older and you don’t want to pay sales tax on $65k plus the up charge.

I checked palsapp just now and the truck is now at the Wade Lot Claycomo . So, I assume it's waiting to be picked up for transport to Granger.

That's a good indication! I just checked Spacewhitev8's order and the ETA is now moved up to April from July. You folks are two of our three KCAP orders.

Good morning! Here are the latest updates. Good news for @Kidder about his truck being built. I put an "X" in those columns until he gets dates. Spacewhitev8's "old" order's ETA moved back up to April from July. I'm sure we'd all like to see our ETAs pulled forward!

Have added a couple of folks from Build Week 1/31 to our spreadsheet. If you want to be added to the spreadsheet, please provide the info as indicated in the columns below. @Leaf25 - if you ordered in Sep, were you converted from a 2021 to a 2022 in Oct? @Kodyray72 - Is yours being built in DRB or KAN and is it a PowerBoost?

Ha, Nice to see you here too, Raptor fellow, we have the same blend date which is today, did you have a ETA yet on the tracker?

Still sitting at TBD, I feel like it’s wishful thinking that I’ll see anything new today. Hopefully I’m wrong haha.

The tracker now officially shows my truck as built on 2/3/22. I wonder when FordPass will actually show a depiction of my truck versus the Lightning?

My window sticker did get a new date today at the bottom which is 02/04, not sure it means anything

Same. No other changes though, same blend, same MSRP.

 

[PGPowerboost]

Same on mine. Hopefully it means movement on the build and not some schmuck refreshing the stickers to make some report to the higher ups look good.
