akirby Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 The seat delete has been discussed in detail - go back a few pages or do a search. X plan would save about $3k give or take but the dealer has to agree to accept it - it’s 100% voluntary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been very pleased with this dealer. Do you happen to have any input on how accurate the build dates have been recently? I can take a look I just haven't been on in awhile and I wasn't sure if you might have an immediate opinion on it? Thank you sir! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbf2530 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 40 minutes ago, Alex Kreh said: Hey everyone! Been awhile since I've been on here been pretty quiet from Ford, and without the amazing Cyberdman, I've been sitting in radio silence hoping for good news for the past few months. Sometime early last week I got an email from my salesperson that stated Ford was showing the Multi-Contour Seats as a high commodity option. For those of you that may not know, those are the massaging seats, very cool option and one I was excited to have. I told my salesperson to leave it on there and I would continue to wait even if it took longer. A couple days after that communication with my salesperson, Thursday evening, I got the email that I was scheduled for build on July 25th! Now, although I was on cloud 9, I was a little bit skeptical, because I had not removed the multi-contour seats and they had just said those would not be scheduled. Friday morning, I called my salesperson to confirm if the truck was scheduled with the massage seats and he noted that he never took them off (which I do believe) but was surprised to see that Ford had automatically removed the option themselves. I was originally extremely frustrated, as my understanding was that removing the seats was an option and would just cause you to wait longer, however it seems to me like Ford is no longer doing the multi-contour for the rest of the 22MY orders. In addition, I am only getting a $300 credit? That seems extremely low, that option MUST cost more than $300. I am going to attempt to negotiate to get a little bit more out of my dealer when the truck arrives, but I think that a $300 credit for an option that I think is a key part of the higher trim levels is a little bit of a slap in the face. Especially considering these wait times (I ordered Feb 9 which I know isn't as long as some but still). In hindsight, I have become less frustrated with not having them as I have heard from people that the normal seats are actually more comfortable just to sit in, and that people don't use the massaging feature all that often. I am still frustrated with how the whole thing was handled on Ford's end, not with my direct salesperson, but the higher person handling these things. Just seems like it could have been better. In any case, I am still very much excited to get my hands on this thing, my guess is that if it is built July 25th, I figure a month for shipping, and I have it by end of August. I'm curious if the build dates are still getting bumped back like they were 4 months ago, or if peoples original build dates are starting to be more accurate? Also found out the company that I have started with has X-plan, does anyone know what kind of discounts can be expected with this? My salesperson wasn't too sure, and I understand it likely varies from company to company, just trying to find a ball-park estimate. Thank you! Hi Alex. X-Plan and X-Plan Partner Company pricing is based off Dealer Invoice price (see below), and does not vary from company to company. Here is the basic X-Plan pricing breakdown: Ford Dealer Invoice - (0.4% * Dealer Invoice) + Administration Fee* Lincoln Dealer Invoice + (0.6% * Dealer Invoice) + Administration Fee* *The Administration Fee is $275. Then, the Dealer can also add a "Documentation Fee" of up to $100. And here is the X-Plan Partner website, which contains an Overview, X-Plan rules, FAQ's etc: https://www.fordpartner.com/partnerweb/jsp/howitworks/fordpartner_rules.htm#faq26 And as akirby stated, Dealership acceptance of X-Plan sales is strictly voluntary, so be sure to ask your chosen Dealership if they will accept an X-Plan sale for your order. Let us know how you make out and good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1972Mach1 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Ford email this morning saying the SCSB truck that I ordered on 6/24/21 has been finally built. Just shy of one year from order to being built. Order placed 11/19 was delivered just over two weeks ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOU-TX-TREMOR Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 As I write this post, I am still scheduled for production the week of 27 June, next week. (However, I still dread a late email pushing me back, again.) I understand that the window sticker should be viewable between 1 to 7 days prior to production, but my window sticker still has not populated. I am leaving for international business travel tomorrow and will be gone for 4 weeks. If the truck gets built and delivery beats my expectation, it could arrive before I return. My dealer says they will not sell my truck out from under me if they have to hold it for some time until my return. Needless to say, I’m getting a little anxious something will not go well. What timeframe are others seeing as far as window sticker availability? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sure didnt. At least not yet. We did get pricing from Angela Krause when we started out but didn't get a good feeling from them. I hate that happened to you. What a bummer.

I just said I’m not paying for any of that crap and they took it off. Ended up paying $4k below MSRP and got what we wanted, so in the end no harm no foul. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The In Production date does not appear on Tracker yet though so I assume that will happen next week on 6/27. The actual production day for your schedule week is available via the Vehicle Visibility Report (VVR). Your In-Production date will appear on the tracker the day your truck moves from paint to the trim line. Typically, a truck takes approximately 3 days to move from body shop, paint, trim, chassis, and final inside the plant.

Boss Hog Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Dealer just called with an update on my hold issue. It is the PM sensor. It was built within the timeframe that it will only operate at 35mph and is being held until July 15 before earliest possible release. It’s BS but at least now I know. That will put it in “shipping” status over 2 months. What a deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think they’d have the old software saved somewhere in case something like this happened. Bulletin says fix will be provided by 7/15. Good thing my PCO expires on 7/5 so they can try to screw me out of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
