So, in theory it would help you get selected quicker, but many have been 2 for months and no change. Didn’t one of the mods say that the priority 02 is actually telling Ford to build ASAP? I don’t think it’s a dealer priority. I think it’s supposed to be a note for the factory to try to bump it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With COVP dealer allocation shouldn’t be an issue like it’s been in the past. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine has been in transit since the 11th of October and sitting in a yard since the 25th. Northeast Alabama is where my dealer is and my truck is in Atlanta. He says mine is marked HOT and has been for 2 weeks. My order was placed 241 days ago. E: I am working directly with the sales manager on this to boot. It's been the most frustrating experience ever. My house took less time to build than this truck. Very little the dealer can do. I've worked at Ford for a couple of decades, have quite an extensive list of contacts. Mine was stuck at the rail yard and could not get it unstuck. Even my dealer wanted to know how I was able to get some people stirred up. As much as I wish it was something I did, in the end, it was pure luck of the draw that got it delivered. Truck driver was given a sheet of vehicles to load on his truck, couldn't find a single one. They gave him another stack of vehicles, couldn't find any of those. My truck was in the 3rd batch, and he found my truck and one other. I even had a contact inside the company providing security at the rail yard, and it did me zero good. I find this CF very disturbing.

And the dealership called me today and said my unit has arrived. 350 cc lb srw, fx4, 6.7, spray on, console safe, deleted carpet, utt, lariat ultimate, 5th wheel prep. And other stuff..... Ill be picking up tomorrow if all goes well. Edited November 16, 2021 by Hamilton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjmcken81 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I’m with you brother…took it as levity/sarcasm. I ordered a 21 in April, had Ford cancel mid-May, reordered a 22 late-May, been waiting ever since…Platinum F250 Tremor with AS, spray-in bedliner, and 5th Wheeling prep. I feel the frustration of everyone, as much as myself. On a positive note, our camping season is ending, so can wait until after New Years. Still priorty 10, awaiting scheduling…hoping for a PCO for the hassle. Keep the faith…we can laugh later, after getting and enjoying our trucks.

He probably wants them as bad as I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjordan3 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 6 hours ago, Imarkdirt said: Yeah this appears to be one very large boat with people who have been left, how can we can we say this delicately..without much in the way of information regarding their orders or what they should do to place an order that can be built. I honestly thought my March order would get built soon and that I would have a truck by August. Now it could be December if the Thanksgiving holiday gets in the way. I just checked the Mach E (and Ford) tracker and it looks like Ford finally updated my delivery ETA. Of course, Ford didn't generate any sort of email informing me of the change. Originally it was estimated for delivery by 10/31 and now it's showing as 11/22. My dealer confirmed my truck is sitting at the ramp in VA waiting to be loaded on a carrier for delivery so hopefully Ford's delivery estimate is a little more accurate than it was last time.

Ford truck guy Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 My dealer saw an issue a few years ago with getting vehicles from the rail yards... He now has a small private hot shot company do all the moves for his dealerships.... He can prioritize any vehicle for pick up since he has full control over the trucks... We just took delivery of 3 2022 Super Duties, all 3 were delivered to dealer within the same week they were off loaded at the rail yard... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC2014 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) I just looked at the Mach E tracker and it says that my truck is in production but the window sticker is not available at this time. And when I go to FTE and look at PhoenixFla tracking spread sheet it says in order process. Which one can I count on. FTE just updated there spreadsheet and is says in production no sticker yet though probably soon to come.

menasco Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Ordered a F250 Platinum 10/28. I called the dealer when I saw that the adaptive steering was going to cause a delay. She told me when she heard back from Ford she would remove it. She called today, turns out that in addition to the steering there were other things that might cause delays. Star White, Short Bed, Gooseneck Prep, and widebody frame. My question to the group, should I just remove the adaptive steering and wait or change the other items on the list? I am confused by the wide body frame, she said that was essentially all trucks. Thanks, Billy Edited November 16, 2021 by menasco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Billy Adaptive steering is a big one. First time ive heard star white being an issue or short box. There was some shortages on the fifth wheel prep kits but several trucks including mine have been scheduled since then with it. Id drop Adaptive Steering and hope for the best. with an order date that recent i wouldn't expect anything in the near future. Mine just got picked up and was ordered beginning of june. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT42 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Hey guys new member here. Have been lurking for the last couple days. Hope I posted this on the correct thread, apologies in advance if I didn’t. I ordered a 250 Platinum 26-Oct 21 with AS, Spray In liner, 5th Wheel Prep. I received an order confirmation email the day I ordered from the dealer. Radio silence since then. I guess my question is more to prepare mentally more than anything, but what would be a general rule of thumb in terms of months of wait for the truck with these options? The follow up question being if removal of any option could potentially decrease the time? If so what option(s) would it be? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
