8/2 Build Week

[CK.MECHA]

Same here, except the ones that are showing a date show 04/08/2021 which is a little weird since it's well before the blend date. Also PF has sworn up and down that the truck is actually fully produced and not waiting on chips or any other component. But that might just be an empty promise of course.

That's August 4th not April 8th

oooHHHHoooo... Damn feriners. Don't they know this is a 'murican truck?

One of those was me, I bet. Surprised, not surprised at the news I guess. I just wish we had a better idea of what was causing the delay for so many of us with Dearborn builds.

There goes my chance of applying for the 0% financing offer unless Ford Credit extends it.

I'm going to check with my dealer on that. I think you can purchase the truck as long as the VIN is created.

I spoke with my dealer yesterday as well. They provided me with the same information from their VVR. Mine is "in transit" with an ETA of 9/15 - 9/21. The same information I see on the Ford Vehicle Order Tracker. Ford Performance advised me it was in transit to the dealer. His system showed it had arrived at the Markham Yard (near Chicago) via rail from Dearborn. Apparently he didn't have any further information from that point. My dealer is only 2.5 hours from the Markham Yard and no truck yet.

Someone had posted a great explanation of the Ford Vehicle Order Tracker, when, how each item is populated. Things had been working as explained until the Shipping section. It was to populate once the vehicle was on "rail or convoy". It did not and still hasn't. As mentioned it left Dearborn via rail to Markham yard, where it's to transfer to convoy for the remaining trip. Still no changes as of today (8/24). Still reflecting 9/15 - 9/21 arrival date. Dealer did say they have been receiving vehicles outside of any dates provided and truly expects my truck this week. We'll see with fingers crossed.

Ford performance says there is no status on my truck

I think the dealers are really hesitant to give out real VVR information now because people are canceling their orders left and right when it's taking too long. They want to string you along for as long as possible. I really hate dealerships.

Yes. You were one of them. I got the notification and was like. Wait I just added him. Only to go back and look at the first data that got pulled to see they had pushed the ETA dates a month.

I have an approval from Chase bank for the loan on my truck. Good till the 31st. Pretty sure I'm not making that. Or the ford credit (Planned to get some other offers on financing when I finished up the paperwork).

Lol, yep, and here I was MOMENTARILY excited that I was already getting an update from your super-duper tracker program. ?‍ That said, it does work great and really thankful for your efforts!

Hope it works out for you and the rest of us on low interest rate offers.

Let me know what you find out if possible. I called my dealership yesterday and the finance guy stated the incentive is only effective when you take delivery of the vehicle.

And I was the other one . Love the email alert. It worked great (even though it was delivering bad news). I appreciate your efforts @victimofareload .

Now that I am pushed deep into September it's time to decide whether or not I order a '22 at this point. Remember the good ole days when you could just drive over to your nearest dealer and drive off with a new ride? This new process sucks.

Finally got the PFchat to work today (had to accept cookies) and they say mine was completed 8/3. Est delivery is still 8/27 - 9/2. Window sticker botom date did update today too, the last time it updated, my est delivery got pushed 2 weeks. Hope PF is right about mine.

Thanks to all for keeping us updated on your individual status. Fingers crossed for all of us

I was getting uptight that I too would miss out on the 0%/60month deal, and would have to settle for the 1.9% with a 1500 trade credit that I locked in when I placed the order in June. But when I did the math, based on my loan/expected trade value, the trade credit almost exactly offsets the interest paid effectively making it a 0% loan. So basically for me it's the same deal.

Well, potentially some good news today. My ford pass app activation of the new truck got denied this morning. Hopefully that means someone got in it and denied it while getting it onto transport...

finger's crossed. Trackers haven't changed, but I figure they get updated once a day or something.

My FordPass activation said it was denied at the truck, yesterday. So somebody was probably in it. No doubt to plunder my truck for chips to send to Kansas City

I'm the same as you with ETA holding at 8/27 - 9/2. I'm fully expecting the ETA date to get pushed back when next week rolls around.
