Date ordered; December 9, 2020
Production completed; March 1st
Released to ship: March 2nd
Estimated Delivery Date; March 20th
On March 19th the tracker adjusted to a new estimated delivery date of March 27th.
March 27th, Tracker shows one day to delivery.
March 28th, Tracker shows two days to delivery.
March 29th, Tracker shows three days to delivery.
March 30th, Tracker now shows 15 days to delivery.
By now I am beyond annoyed, depressed, ready to eat a pound of nails! Decide to take the boat out to get my mind off "the truck". Bad decision! Weatherman lied, his 2-3' forecast was 3-5' in real life. Better than sitting at home I thought until my fishing partner gets sea sick! Long ride out, long ride back. When we get back in cell service range my phone starts updating with missed messages and calls. Most are from my dealer, guess what was delivered last night and is waiting for you to pick up!
The morale to this rant is if I had it to do over I probably would not look at the Tracker as it is obliviously not a priority to Ford and more or less a toy for us the consumer. The highs and lows created by frequent visits to check on the "status" just leads to excessive consumption of adult beverages! For those who are in that dreaded waiting period, it will come chip shortage or not, it will come!
