Yeah, I have found zero difference in the info there and the shopford vehicle tracker.
They use the same data source, just like the tracker on this forum. You may see different data on them temporarily. That has to do with caching on the server and in your browser. Only reason to use tracker on this site or mache one instead of the shop ford tracker, is because ford artificially blocks the info if the order is from Canada.

Man you really love that Mach E site. Do you own stock in it?
No , but it has actual up to date Ford production info , I waited till I found this one that worked for me after 100 days of no information, so some other trackers are not working so I found this one that works , pas it on to those that are waiting long time with no Ford updates, help a friend , taking care of my brother f150 family.

If it works you don’t have to fix it, or if it’s not broken don’t fix it , the dealer I use is now using it it’s faster then Ford system , so where is the problem , .

LOL! I was like this guy posts that link every day. I don't get it but do what makes you happy! Haha.

I envy you folks that have a dealer that actually will provide the vehicle visibility information. Thankfully, I get my updates from the Blue Oval Forum. Hoping this weekend is big for all of us!

Listen, if that's the tracker you like to use, by all means use it. I posted earlier about how the trackers work and how they all get their information from a central location. I'm sure the newer members of the forum appreciate the guidance.

Now with that said, your comment "the dealer I use is now using it it’s faster then Ford system" just baffles me. The Mach E tracker, along with the other trackers, do not provide even close to the information that is available to the dealers internal "vehicle visibility report" software. If I went to my dealer for a status report and they showed me the Mach E tracker, I would run away as fast as possible.

Well folks, I bid you adieu. Not because I quit, but because I signed the dotted line. My journey on this thread is over, but I will still be lurking the others. There is a wealth of information on here for us owners.

ordered March 16
Produced may 01
ETA July 22 (after changing a couple times)
Signed paperwork June 25

Well it put them on noticed that buyers are in control and not the dealership , the dealer sell machines , parts and service , but the buyer either makes or breaks a dealer ship.

Well the dealers have failed keeping buyers abreast of any updates so the forums and partners keep the good word going ,

I get what you are saying but...... In a free market system, the consumer typically has the upper hand. But these are not normal times. For example, if you walked away from your truck order, there would be 10 people lined up behind you to purchase it. Most willing to pay more than the price you probably agreed upon. Supply and demand. In this market some dealers, not all, don't give a hoot about catering to a customers constant demand for information on their orders. They know they will sell it either way.

The problems at Ford Corporate are unrelated to the dealers. From what I have seen, the lack of information you feel you are getting is also being felt by the dealers. While some dealers are better than others for sure, I feel from some of the comments you have made that your dealer may not be providing great customer service. From my experience, this is not the norm.

Your right my dealer moves a high volume of truck sales to utility companies , contractors county , state and federal agencies, yes I could be one small order but they gave me information that sounded like the others on the forums little information all about the same answer , but June 16 came and the information gates opened up which might consider with Kansas plant coming back online , the Information has gone up 80% to the better , so when a follower of the forum doesnt have a vin since FEBRUARY, there is a dealer holding back which is unfair , customers need to get answers .

The flooding in Dearborn may cause further delays. ??‍♂. I'm not sure how crazy the flooding is near the plant, but the videos and pictures I've seen of the Dearborn area don't look good. The bright side is that many residents seem to be taking the destruction in stride. Plenty of videos of folks climbing on top of cars just to do cannon balls and other silly stuff. I hope no lives have been lost. ??
