2023 Tremor - Ordered Today - WalterMitty's Version

[Pelz2023]

Interesting is that there is no email to go along with this update on the tracker app. I am thinking its because of the holiday but maybe supply chain and they have no enter key....

Congrats the "Built" status....it's at least one step in the right direction.

Did you notice their note about it might take a few days...maybe even a week for shipping? Well, mine has been built since 11/30.

I think the emails are messed up. There's at least one type that is auto generated, and just goes out every 45 days just to say, sorry it's taken so long. Then the actual update emails lag behind what is really happening. The best bet is what your dealer can see, and then second best is the tracking site (IMHO). Reach out to the dealer, they should be able to see a view with a bit more detail....mine did and shared a bit of a cut and paste with me....that's why I was able to update the info I had on my most recent update post. My new shipping estimate is Jan 1-7...hope that happens. Even once the truck gets to the dealer, they said they need around 1 to 1.5 weeks to prep it before it's ready for pick up.

I noticed that the built circle has a check in the box now and I checked my email and I now have a date for arrival at the Dealer between Jan 16 and Jan 22nd. Fingers crossed!

 

[WalterMitty]

You're doing better than me. My Built bubble still doesn't have a checkmark.

The other thing that bugs me, is the line about ....Select the "Learn About Your Vehicle" link... there is no link with this exact name! Hey Ford, proof read your own stuff!!!

I noticed a white tremor at the local Ford dealership tonight, when I look on their site they have three in stock amongst there dealerships. When I review the window stickers for all three, they have build dates of 10/29, 11/14 and 11/15.

I suppose if my build date was 11/21, maybe I'll get lucky in a week or two!

I heard nothing from Dec 2nd until Jan 2nd. and then everything at once. I wonder if they were waiting for a shipment of parts, and they got them and started finishing vehicles. I am not a 402A so that may be why mine is supposedly on its way. I was trying to hit a decent number while getting as many of the extras that I could, so I went with the 401A instead of the 402A. I was also thinking Silver, White, or AMBlue. Everytime I see a silver and white I think I made a mistake with the blue. I hope I will see the truck this month but you never know.

You must be talking about Currie? I noticed the white Tremor there last weekend as well. As others like @Pelz2023 said, it's a color that sort of makes be have some bit of buyers remorse about my AMB order. And if Currie had my exact order, in White, for the same price, I would be VERY tempted to make a change.

However, that particular one wasn't even close to my order. It was a V6 and no sunroof among other differences. I still want to drive up and see what they have on the sticker. I sort of swore never to buy anything from them when their "Market Adjustments" got way out of line. $10K OVER MSRP for "normal" trucks....$15K over for Tremors, and $20K (or more) over for Raptors and Broncos. I get it...the market can let you get away with it, so why not do it. But it also means I can shop elsewhere with my long memory. That, and I friend has had fairly brutal experience there for servicing his truck.

As another topic, where do you think you will get your truck serviced? Once I get mine (someday!), I think I might trek all the way to Merriville, IN. I won't go to Currie, and I don't think I want to go to Rizza either.

 

[Chipk]

We both agree on Currie, I won't do business with them and I thought it might be different at their Valpo location. They've been OK but did not mentioned that I wouldn't have a heated steering wheel until I brought it up and the end on Nov, the letter came out Oct 2!

I also wont work with Rizza, that leaves Sutton (nope) Terry's in Peotone (no experience there), maybe Taylor in Manteno and, as you mentioned, Art Hill in Merrillville, which I'm willing to try.

Hello guys, on 8/10 I ordered almost the same exact truck as WalterMitty in Antimatter Blue with a few other features and keep getting the good ol 45 day email just went to the dealer today to check on it and he said that only 3% of the Tremor trim were being built not sure how true that is but that's the news I received on mine.

Have you been tracking your build with the Ford Tracking site?

Looks like Art Hill is happy to do the big mark ups too! Check out the "sales" price listed for this Raptor, then check the sticker.

What's $20k between friends!!

I'm looking for an honest service department, I hope they are better that the sales group!

Have you been tracking your build with the Ford Tracking site?

I was only given the order number, the site asks for the order number and vin number

You should have a VIN by now.
