Your experience with delivery times?

[Dannyturner]

I received an email this morning saying my f150 was built and an estimated delivery date is Nov 7-13th. From Dearborn to California. I'm just curious if everyone has experienced on time delivery dates? Trying to time when I sell my current vehicle as conveniently as possible. Thanks.

I ordered March 12. Received notification mine was Built September 26 and awaiting shipment. Still awaiting shipment as of right now. They say they have a delay in carriers and have no timeline. My delivery date has changed 4 times. Now it is the 20th but I doubt it. It has not shipped. I live 5 hours from the plant in Indiana

Do not sell your vehicle until you have SEEN and preferably sat in your truck! There are too many things that can go wrong. Examples:

1. Late delivery (ex. my truck was built in mid Apr and arrived at the dealership in mid Aug!)
2. Damage during delivery.
3. Other manufacturing issues with truck that are identified during delivery.
4. Failing to reconcile terms of sale. There are many here, you can fail to qualify for financing, dealer may change terms on you...refuse to honor PCOs, disagreement in price etc. If you have already sold your vehicle, you would be forced to compromise since your vehicle is gone.
5. Completely different truck shows up...lol. It's possible, then you have to order another one.

Perfect case scenario, you sell your vehicle today (you get best price for it) and yout truck arrives tomorrow and everything checks out, sign paperwork as agreed and you drive home. Do you want to chance it tho?

I’ll just leave this here and you can see just how delivery times are going…my “eta” has changed 5 times

I’m not as bad as big stuff, but I’m at day 19 waiting to ship. You might want to wait a bit on the sale.

Wow. Thanks everyone for your responses. Definitely may wait to sell my current vehicle.
