Escapism

Hmmm, hard to say. You put your location down as "USA". Doesn't really help. What Leon said is spot on. Could be you are dealing with a low volume dealer? If so, they don't have as many allocations as large volume dealers. Did you get an order confirmation sheet from the dealer? If so, call Ford ^ and use the info on it to at least get the estimated build date. That's what I did using the order # and dealer # on my confirmation sheet. If they give you that then go by your dealer and ask to see the inventory manager. That person can then pull all your info (VIN included) from Ford and give you a printout. Did you put a deposit down??? Is it refundable?? Unless you are many miles away from the next dealer you don't have to put up with poor customer service if this one is not to your satisfaction.

No deposit for me. First time Ford buyer. Ordered 08/11, built 09/04 (today!!). Ted Britt Ford is a high volume dealer and maybe that has something to do with. High volume dealers usually get more allocations and they know the cars will sell even if you never show up to pick it up.

Says your car was built on 08/14. Use this site http://researchmaniacs.com/Ford/TrackFactoryCarOrders.html

^^^ Yes, I am that way also. I usually read the manual from cover to cover(well, almost). But this one is killing me and my car is just now being built today!

Stop by the dealer and got my VIN # for my ordered Titanium. Going to be built tomorrow!! Very excited!! Hope the folks at the plant don't get too smashed today celebrating Labor Day. :reading: Looked up my window sticker and there it was. Ordered 8/20 and due at dealer around 9/17. Man that is fast. All the 2012 escapes are pretty much gone from this dealers lot. And it looks like the 13's are selling pretty darn good. They can't really keep them on the lot. I live in Fairfax, Virginia and the dealer is Ted Britt Ford.
