01/03/22 Build Week Chat

As a long time lurker, I just want to say thanks to this thread for keeping me sane the last 9 months. Yesterday I finally picked up my MME Premium RWD extended range in SoCal and this discussion always kept my hope alive. Madly in love with it so far, and my wife quickly agreed. Dealer was great but it was crazy seeing the one MME select they got for retail selling at the same price as my car.

Congrats! So great to read! what color?
Do you have a timeline of your car passing through key points along the journey that might help the rest of us get an idea of ours?

How's your progress? I'm about a week behind you, arrived IFG on 4/20.

Checked via chat on Saturday morning, no change. Was still in Missouri waiting for a truck to Kansas before it can go on a train to southern California.

Anyone else waiting for their cars to reach Benicia, CA for delivery to their Norcal dealer?

I'm in the 1-31 build week and waiting. Estimated delivery 4/27 to 5/3. I found 2 other members here with same order date of late August, build week of 1-31 and delivery 4/27 to 5/3. We think we're on the same train. One car going to Folsom Lake Ford and 2 going to Geweke Ford in Yuba City. Who is your dealer? Any updated info on your delivery since your last posting?

I am from Yuba City as well but I ordered from Dixon Dealer since they offered x-plan. My build week was 1-24. Built on 3/10 and with ETA 4/22-4/28. Which I highly doubt will happen. I never received any shipped emails. Ford chat told me last week as of 4/14 your vehicle is waiting to be shipped from Ramp 5J in Lecheria Cuap, EM.

325 days since I ordered on June 4, and my vehicle is sitting in a rail yard in Missouri. How many of you have been waiting longer? Misery loves company.

As of 11:30 last night ordertrack.app and palsapp said "pending" and Palsapp also said pending.

This morning my car made the 35 minute Jack Cooper car carrier journey to Muncie KS on the Muncie Ramp according to both sources.

Based on other people's experience once it gets on a train from Muncie Ramp it is about 7 days before the car will arrive in Mira Loma (I understand that this is Ramp one location of RH27). From there it is one last a convoy carrier drive away to the dealership.

Ford.com still says 5/2-5/8.

I hope that everyone here continues to find progress...I do think that getting 3 months of production out the door in a 2 week period overloaded the transit system with a trucking shortage not helping anything in the progress.

Ordered 5/26/21 and as far as I'm aware, it's still sitting in a railyard in Muncie, KS. ? Just got another email from Ford on Friday saying it's delayed until 5/17-5/23.
Has anyone ever gotten a delay email and then the car ended up getting there sooner?

I don't think Ford chat is always accurate. What did you order? Have you discussed price protection yet? I live in Chico but ordered from Geweke. Let's stay in touch and keep each other updated.

Yes, I got my car 6 days after my delivery update was shifted back a month. Not sure that's normal, but there's a glimmer of hope for you.

Just filled out paperwork to sell my 2014 to Carvana. Going on vacation next Thursday and won't be back til after mothers day. Talked to dealer and if my car comes in he will do all the paperwork back and forth and I can wire the $ to him... I gave him a big list to make sure like price protection , X plan, the $750 ford promised us rollover and some certificate that Ford Makerting told me, may be same as the rollover.
I sure hope the car is here when I get back..... has already been almost 2 months since built after being on chip hold for 6 weeks. Yes I know preaching to the choir...

I sold my extra 2018 Ford to carvana in 2/2022 hoping that my 2008 Honda would last until my Mach arrived. Now it is 4/2022 and No Mach E and my 2008 Honda engine died. Now I am renting a car at $100/day since I sold my extra car to Carvana. The IRONY!!!

May 17, 2021, built 3/5. Mine is at Richards-Gebaur, MO. 342 days I will never get back.

If the dealer is already honoring pricing before the increase, can we still get anything with the $750 credit Ford is giving us?
