8/2 Build Week

[someday]

I think I posted that my truck was missing the sensor that should have come with it for the trailer backup assist. After several trips to the dealer, they finally admitted that it should have come with it. They said they are going to order it today. Its a $528 part so I am glad they finally stepped up.

I had accepted the fact that they stopped shipping them with Job 2 trucks. My salesman did look in every truck on the lot to see if he could find one for me though. And none had them. So I ended up buying one off ebay for $150. But $528 is the same price the dealer quoted me when I went to the parts department with the part number(!!!).

Maybe I should have stayed on them more...

Wait, so rewind it for me? I thought that the stickers (which I got) had replaced the need for the transducer box thingy (which I didn't get). Is that not the case?

Not much going on, though I'll post an 'update' because it's been a few days.

Yardsail looks like they'll be buying off the lot, but I'll keep them on the list until they get their new truck... you never know what will happen. I'm also taking Segev2110 off the list as it looks like they were a drive-by visitor to this thread. If they return with updates, I'll stick them back on!

Finally, my data started showing an ETA of '10/27', but the tracker still says ETA 'TBD'. My dealer's heard nothing, and my FordPass hasn't shown anyone in the truck, so until I hear more, I'll assume this is the latest in a long line of spurious delivery dates.

... but you never know!

EDIT: Dmac, did you get your truck? It sounds like you have, but didn't see a 'Here's my truck!' post, so didn't want to move you off the list prematurely

I’ve been checking this thread every couple days or so, just haven’t had anything new to share. My tracker still says 12/31 for the ETA and TBD for dealer delivery. Just getting depressed with the whole thing and hoping it’s not sitting in a lot somewhere like the March builds. It’s been in production since 8/19. Wondering if it’ll ever show up…

Where did you see the 10/27 ETA update for your own truck? I’m using the official Ford tracker.

Hey, glad to see you're still around! Sorry to remove you, I just have this mania about making the list smaller. I'll add you back next update!

As for the shipping 'Start' and 'End' date window, the Mach-E tracker, if you 'show raw details', will show the raw data for your order info... that's where I got mine.

Thanks John. Thought I’d keep you guys company.
And that Mach E tracker doesn’t show anything different for me. Maybe our trucks will just show up?‍

Some of this stuff is just crazy! My very first build date from Ford was 8-2, and I joined this thread at that time and have been actively reading about all of you and your builds. Really glad to see that most have gotten their trucks!

Mine was finally built on 10-8 after 10 different build dates from Ford. I am still waiting for it to show up at the dealer. Supposed to be here on 10-26. Fingers crossed

 

[johnbisme]

Just putting out an update so I can get Segev2110 back on the list. And ib_jigged keeps popping in to say 'Hi' so what the heck, they're on the list, too, though not really in 'Limbo' as their truck will hopefully be here soon.

The only other actual 'update' I have is that I have received my SEVENTH End Date (Hurrah!), pushing back from 10/27 to 11/05. I'm not too sad about it since at this point I consider any date they give me as bogus, at least until my truck obtains 'built' status, which it has not, so... in Limbo I remain!

johnbisme, thanks for adding me, you did not need too. It has been fun watching the status of everyone here in this build week, as I was originally here as well. Crazy, how many that have been built after are already getting theirs.

Does this give you any information you didn't already have?

For those who have their trucks have you recieved your Ford Pass points yet?

I got mine like 2 days after I bought it.

I got my points 6 days after picking up the truck.

23.4 over 540 miles. It had ~55 miles on it when I picked it up and was less than 20 at the time, so I think I'm probably doing near 24 myself. Maybe 60% highway 40% city. My electric miles were just under 25% of total at 500 miles

I am in L/100km but when converting I’m around 21.5mpg. I’ve been trying to figure out the best way to drive in Eco and using EV Coach. I find if I really want to force it into Electric I need to tap the break for a second or two (annoying).
A short drive out for coffee or groceries and the truck uses all gas and terrible mpg.

No, this gives me either Error or Null for every field. And actually giving an error and/or leaving all the fields blank/Null on any tracker that I try. A good sign perhaps?

I’ve actually been using Normal for 99% of the miles. If you’re doing a lot of short trips that will certainly kill your mileage. The engine needs to warm up and it’s going to run. I never run in electric mode immediately after startup.

A previous vehicle I owned had an “efficiency gauge” and I learned using that how to feather the throttle and get off the gas a little earlier when accelerating and let off the gas early to anticipate stops, and that’s kind of stuck in my driving style. Not driving in grandma mode, but I’m generally as easy going as traffic will allow. I haven’t bothered to try to figure out how the Ford efficiency meter works, but it feels like the way I already drive works with this truck.

I have dipped into boost a few times too though. It’s damn fun.
