01/03/22 Build Week Chat

[Rapid Ed]

So, interesting.... my arrival date has been accelerate by Ford from Feb 22nd to Feb 6th. Will see if that date holds up, but pretty excited about getting my MachE next week if it's true!!!

Palsapp doesn't show anything so who knows....

My arrival date updated just before Palsapp did. It seems wildly optimistic now.

Just a guess but maybe once you get your chips it will update to something much sooner.

My palsapp updated this morning, my vehicle (shipped 1/17) is now in Kansas City.

Jealous! Mine status is still pending In palsapp, and shop.ford.com still shows me in production. hasn’t shipped yet.

Not to burst anyone’s bubble here, I am from 12/10 build, but Oct production and Nov left alone mine haven’t been delivered yet

not looking good for any of us

Not even remotely live, but you could watch this (from 2020, but assembling Mach-Es):

Thanks. I've been collecting this sort of thing for weeks as I explored where MME units came from and how they got delivered. I guess I'll post them somewhere for others looking to while away the days while waiting for their MME.

the Argentine rail sorting yard near Muncie, Kansas. From here, I think MME go CSX rail to the east and UP rail to the west.

Well, I just checked my Tracker and now my delivery day moved from 2/17 to 5/18. That will put me more than 9 months out from order date. It is frustrating to see people in later build weeks that ordered 2 months after I did with cars that are shipped, and I know people from the end of last year are still waiting. No rhyme or reason. However, I am genuinely happy for anyone that can actually get their car. It is beginning to feel like these things are never actually going to get built.

If I could do this all over again, I’d reserve about 10 Mach E’s and hope one of them got through without a chip delay. Once I got one, I’d cancel the rest and get my refundable deposits back. I could literally place a brand new order right now and probably get it before some of us in this thread. I’m going to sleep on it but I may place a new order (or multiple) in the morning. I’m beyond frustrated.

Yep, we all may second guess our decisions. If I filed 10 orders with "My dealer" I'd be loaning them about $15,000 for 6-7 months. ($1500 deposit on 1 order and they wouldn't let me file 2 more even though their deposit was 3 times that of other dealers less than 10 miles away.) I feel pretty stupid having chosen a dealer that I knew nothing about. I've been debating the same thing... order another MME from a different dealer. Trouble is, my first order was before the price hike and the second order would be a couple thousand higher and the delivery wait (20 weeks vs 28 weeks) may still be much longer for either one, if chip shortage goes on and on. ?

Palsapp popped late today (1/28) with confirmation that my GT has been transferred to a Norfolk Southern (VOLTZ) train headed for Birmingham, MO. Ultimate destination is Richmond VA. The est delivery date on shop.ford.com hasn't changed since the first time a date was posted in early December: 2/25.

I’m hoping my ETD sticks. Been reading owners manual… 2nd read…
