05/09/22 Build week

[Atlantic24]

Hi everyone, hope all is well! Been on the site a few times and just registered. Looks like I'm in the same situation as a few of you, truck built (May 22) but still awaiting shipment. Dealer tells me they can't see any more information than I do on the Ford tracker, and "will let me know when my truck arrives." They don't seem very inclined to track the truck in more detail. So frustrating!

I was ETA 7/15-7/21. Chat just told me 7/30-8/5 just now. This is the 3rd ETA I've gotten now, and definitely not holding my breath. No email about the new ETA yet.

My last email said delivery was 7/10-7/16, now chat today said it is 7/28-8/3, but I doubt I will get it then either. If they don't quit dicking around, I am going to lose interest. I'm about sick of this BS. I feel at this point they are just making up dates without really giving a shit.

I'm not sure they know much more than we do. Your best bet is to call Ford for an update. Chat doesn't seem to have up to date info and at least when you call you're talking to a person and they seem to want to stay on the line to help you out. Good luck!

Well, no signs of movement for me. It‘s looking as though I’ll get something other than Ford. I doubt my truck will arrive before I find another option.

Ford is going to loose a good amount of buyers. Sadly they don't care because they'll get someone to buy the truck soon as it hits the lot and also get new customers from other makes that are going through with it too. If it wasn't for the driving tech, Bluecruise, and all I'd have gotten something else by now as well. I mainly drive highway miles so those features are too good to pass up for me.

Well chat told me on Monday 7/30-8/5 (which was a push back again), just got a Ford tracker email yesterday afternoon saying 8/5-8/13.... F8CK MY LIFE - 1st world problem for sure. If I didn't get A-plan with price protection, this truck would just be a memory (terrible one at that).

Just chatted on the phone, I have been pushed to August 30
I'm pretty certain I will find something else before then.

Just got my third ETA ending at 7/23. All three of my ETAs have been within the time frame my truck has sat at the final rail lot waiting for convoy.

If something doesn't happen with companies actually paying better for drivers it's going to get worse.

Hope more trucks show up this week for everyone.

Putting mine to use.

The Lada is fundamentally offended. It thinks it should be the tow vehicle…

That is awesome, I didn't know which react to use. The "wow" for the Lada or the "laugh" that it should be the tow vehicle.
I have only seen one Lada ever in person and that was a car show in Atlanta.

Well, this dealer, oddly enough the dealer I had ordered a Ford Maverick (that won’t be built lol), has this.
It has shipped, but not received yet. Talking to him now, hope the numbers work out. It’s same build + a couple extra options, but Carbon Grey.

Chat told me 7/28 - 8/3 Monday, got an email from FT last night with the same time frame. I give the actual chances of that of 5% and that's being generous. I guess it is possible since mcgski seems have had his ship on 7/15 and arrive a day later it seems? I'm about 400 miles further away, so seems should be possible to deliver within 2 or 3 days.

It's union. The pay is laid out right in front of them. They just re-upped the contract (which was in protest, they got what they wanted) not too long ago.

What they need to do is just let more companies come in and help until the situation is caught up. Smart thinking, problem solving solutions, doesn't go on with Ford LOL
