Thread for people who haven't gotten their Mach-E's yet to be grumpy in

[JamieGeek]

? Damn I forgot to mention this in my original grumpy quote. This really ticks me off that people who hadn't preordered could walk up to a dealer and drive away in a car we've been waiting 14 months for!

Honestly that doesn't matter that much to me. Sure they got a car before me but this really isn't a race is it? (Yeah the whole Mustang thing notwithstanding LOL)

I'm going to get a car built specifically for me..sure it will be one of a few hundred IB Route 1's (HAHA all you Priemium owners will be one of thousands!! ok sorry). I didn't play the lottery and just took whatever showed up on the dealers lot...

(Ok yeah this is all what I keep telling myself to not get PO'ed LOL.)

I’m a bit worried that Ford created a perverse incentive by requiring dealers to honor pricing for preorders, but letting them add ADM on canceled orders that they resell. It means they are probably happy when someone cancels because they still sell the car immediately and make $5k more.

That makes preorders a sort of second class customer, rather than the preferred loyal guaranteed sale they should be.

is there a way to give some feedback to Ford that it would be nice if cancelled orders got offered to the next few folks in the line in that region before becoming stock?

I have the option to buy a Rapid Red now instead of Grabber Blue in late March. My wife likes the red better. I am seriously thinking of letting my reservation go and getting the red instead. No ADM and I am tired of waiting.

Go for it! Jump before someone else gets it.

You guys in the US have no idea what waiting actually is. I pre-ordered a Grabber Blue First Edition on the release date of 18th Nov 2019. We could only confirm our orders on the 11th December 2020 which I did. 20-23 weeks delivery estimate from that date which would have been towards the end April mid-May. Being a First edition, they have decided to build it last for us guys so whilst quite a few RWD SR & ER and AWD SR & ER vehicles have already been made and ready to ship, I still don't even have a production date which means July is a more likely date.

Glad I can vent my anger here as some people were getting quite pissed with my rantings!

Good luck to everyone here on getting their cars as early as possible and just think about me having to wait another 5/6 months. Yeah!!!

Yeah. My deposit was on a GT reservation that is still there. The dealership in Austin never required a deposit on the Mach Drop.

My dealer texted this morning and said they were on the way to the computer because 3 MachE’s were delivered over the weekend...


Texted back 5 minutes later to say it wasn’t mine.

I think one of the ones they received was a DCTP order, as one of their cars showing in inventory is showing as delivered in the tracker. Maybe you can get them to let you use it until your car arrives

I spoke with them this morning. 1 was an employee car, one fctp, and the other is stock. But they were confused by how they got a stock one in before any customers.

Strange considering the intent to focus on customer order cars first. Are you going to test drive one of the FCTP cars?
