I noticed a lot of threads asking about order to build time and order to delivery time. Some data on these times can be found in the "Submitted Orders # Tracking List and Stats" thread, but the problem is data are presented in an HTML table that can not be sorted or analyzed. Scrolling through the table trying to make sense of build and delivery waits is difficult.

So, I copied the data out of the tracking thread (694 records on 02-20-2021) and pasted it into an Excel sheet. I corrected some entries that had an obvious error in date entry resulting in negative # of days in the results. I also excluded data with order dates months earlier than the 06-26-2020 start of the reservation to order conversion (highlighted in red text). These are likely reservation dates, not order dates, and result in artificially high order to build/delivery times that may skew the averages higher.

Here are the calculated averages for available data as of Feb 20, 2021:
Order to BuildOrder to DeliveryBuild to Delivery
Average # of days16221259
# of ordersn=363n=88n=78
Range in days16 - 27775 - 26820 - 99

I also sorted the data by model and created separate tabs in the Excel file to see if model matters for wait times. I did some more playing around, such as sorting by order number (do newer orders have shorter waits?), but didn't create separate tabs for this.

I guess others may like to play with it, so I attached the file (in zip file). Each tab is sorted by order date. Post if you find anything interesting.

Awesome work. Really wish there was some way to figure out which ones had the delay in KC to figure out if that "Build to Delivery" is higher cause of people stuck at the speedway.

Guess theoretically that number should start decreasing

the build to delivery date is obscene, I hope those numbers come down, it's crazy that it would take that long to transport from mexico to anywhere in the US. As an aside I got a build date in about 90 days from ordering. I think the time lag for that will drop going forward after the initial orders are filled.

This is great work!!

Well done!
I don't think this data is accurate going forward, yet, because the vast majority of the orders on the tracker were put in well before builds even started (even a year in advance).
Also, many were subject to the mid january "hold" where cars were sent back to KC, delaying delivery times.

Going forward the average times should all be shrinking significantly

These days the ship time seems to be anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks.

My FE was built 1/15 and should be on the lot by 2/27 (maybe a few days earlier we'll see).

In your build to delivery times, I suspect you factored in all the deliveries, which means you accounted for the ones that sat in Mexico for a few days, as well as days that got delayed in Kansas...

Would be nice to exclude those from the math and see the average times then!


Also don't forget geography... the further you are, the longer it should take!!

Delivery times should shrink down to normal at some point. Mine was built on 12/10, and it's been a rollercoaster of delays and waiting and weather. Maybe things will improve this week, just hoping when it does get here there aren't any bad surprises.

I noticed when they updated every one with orders recently most got build dates before me. I ordered Nov 15 and build date of May 30. People ordered in dec and Jan got build dates before me. No rhyme or reason to it. But im happy i got a date!

I'd like to exclude them and see what that does to delivery times but how do I know which ones to exclude? I'd need the usernames of all who got the delay letter from Ford, I guess. Also, from reading threads, it seems some of folks who got the dreaded delay email didn't end up having much of a delay.

I didn't imply that you should, but meant to say that it would be nice to see the real delivery times ifthey could be excluded... but with more and more coming out of the line and being delivered, the intial hickup in delivery times will disappear in the mass!

Good work!

It's a pretty small sample. After filtering, there are only 78 cars delivered so far. The average is 59 days build to delivery but the range is 20 to 99 days. I could go in and look how many got delivery in a month instead of two months. Of course, this all depends on correct entries. There were quite a few incorrect dates and a lot of missing data (people that should've had builds and deliveries but didn't enter dates).

Basically, it should be revisited in a month probably.
