Add anther thank you to Ice Capades for helping a stranger work out his difficulties with an order. As a result of his intervention, I got my truck moved to a priority 01 and schedule for production. It also resulted in a buyer from the dealership contacting a Ford regional manager to discuss my build and intervene. I am so very grateful to Ice Capades.
Tomorrow is an important date for me, I am scheduled for build the week of Nov. 1st. Tomorrow is the last chance Ford has to delay the build...again. So wish me luck.
I ordered back on May 24th; F-350 Lariat, Tremor package, Ultimate package, adaptive steering, black-out, and several other options. I did finally delete the adaptive steering and then the Tremor package to speed things up.
My wife and I had to leave our 5th wheel camper in Washington State because of the delays. We arrived in Nebraska in late August to stay at a relatives until the truck is delivered to Apple Valley Ford in Minnesota. We are days away from selling our current daily driver, a 2015 Ford Edge Sport. I had it serviced at a local Ford dealer in Fremont, Nebraska. They offered to buy it and also said they would contact Ford and see if they would deliver our new truck to them, rather than have us fly to Minneapolis to get the truck in Apple Valley. I'm all for that. The Apple Valley dealer said he didn't want to lose the sale or the possible trade-in. The Ford dealer in Nebraska said they would credit the sale to Apple Ford, and I've already found several better offers for my Edge than the dealer in Apple Valley offered. My question to folks here is; can Ford divert a delivery to a different dealership that where it was first purchased?
Again, for those who come here like me with all sorts of questions and concerns, you can trust the good people here like Ice Capades to provide you reliable and helpful information.
