Perhaps it is the same car I looked at in early January, but now even more expen$ive?



yes...if it comes in then...I am at 41 weeks...and that is a big IF.

I think that's a phenomenal deal. I don't really get why you don't just cancel your order and get this one?!?!

$30K mark up. I can't imagine there are that many people with more money than sense but here we are. More than likely a tactic to get the buyer comfortable with any mark up.

Also the used market is still stupid. My 2017 Tundra is only valued at a few thousand less than I paid for it.

I am glad some people are getting cars...not clear why mine and so many others are not moving.

Did you get Blue Cruise?

Odd. I ordered my CO GTPE on August 23rd (with Blue Cruise).
It was confirmed on 8/24 and again on 9/27.
Changed to a 2022 model on 10/1.
got a vin on October 31 with a build date of 12/20, then 12/27, then 1/3 then 1/10.
Scheduled deliver of 3/11
The car was built on 1/15, but not completed. Sent off-site on 1/20 on a chip hold.
The car now has a delivery date of 6/9, exactly a 90 day slip.

My guess is your car does not have BlueCruise?
Correct.....I didn't order nor care for Bluecruise at the time......Now looking back at it, I should have but too late now......I just want the damn Grabber GTPE

This further confirms my theory that cars with BC are delayed. Cars without BC are being built and delivered.

So I went on to Hungtington Beach Ford site ....The sticker price online doesn't have the ADM on $30K........Probably only on the car itself sitting there

I think it's no coincidence. Also speaks to why so many premiums are delayed.

I have a basic select and its on hold.

My opinion, GTs are prioritized. Also if you live in a zero emissions state that may play into it as well.

Edit - Also, based on Ford closing up Premium and CR1 orders those a likely that much more in demand, which may cause issues.

On 1 October 2021, I ordered a CA Route 1 AWD ER with Blue Cruise and took delivery 20 weeks to the day after my order was accepted (21 weeks after I ordered).

Maybe we are just giving them all too much credit and the real truth is they suck at keeping an eye on demand versus inventory ?

If I didn't love the car so much, I would consider putting it up for sale for $100k like the dealers...
