Earliest reservation still without car

[Plutoman15]

While I impatiently wait for my GT to ship, I thought it would be interesting to see who has the earliest reservation date that still has not received their car. Since @Ford Motor Company ships cars way out of order, this might be interesting.

I am sure I am not the earliest still waiting so earlier reservation dates please speak up. I reserved a premium and a GT Jan 2020. Placed the order as soon as orders opened both times. I received the Premium in April but my GT sits in Mexico.

So Jan 2020… go

Reserved a GT on 11/18/19. Reservation #5818. I'm located in Southern Oregon and I should be taking delivery later this week. The trip from Kansas City to the dealership in southern Oregon takes 3 weeks.

Did you reserve a GT in November 2019 also?

Not nearly that long ago, which is why y’all have me beat.

Reserved 19 Nov 2019, Originally ordered 28 Apr 2021 but Dealership failed to send to Ford until 5 May 2021. On 12 Aug 2021 vehicle was in processing, on 24 Sep 2021 I received an email that my GTPE fully loaded finally was built, currently awaiting shipment with an ETA of 8 Nov 2021.

I read somewhere on this forum where a Canadian customer reserved a GT in December 2019, ordered the first possible day and still doesn’t have a production date. I think he (?) might be the “winner.”

Similar reservation date here (early March 2021) on My GT-PE. Converted into order on the morning of 4/27, accepted by dealer within 10 minutes. Original build week 9/20, postponed to 9/27, postponed to 10/4. So yeah, kind of random.

I reserved Dec. 1 2020. Still no VIN, no scheduled build date.

Yikes! Is your dealer making some noise for you?

 

[HuntingPudel]

Dealer knows nothing further, he does check his system printouts daily. I called Ford Canada, reservations department (sounds like a hotel?). A nice lady in charge checked her systems for half an hour. Yes, I indeed do have an order. But, nothing further to report. Call back in 10 days and check again.

Wow, that is just bad. You would figure someone in customer service would actually give a hoot about your order.

Need more info-

model?

And date you converted reservation to an order?


Reservation date definitely matters, but when you convert to an order seems to matter even more.
