I'm not a know-it-all (none of us are when it comes to deciphering Ford's delivery system) but most cars ride the train to Ford's KC ramp and get inspected by Ford before they're loaded on another train going either East or West. When it fills out, Palsapp is reporting when a car has arrived in KC, has passed Ford inspection, and has departed on the next train. Your car seems to be going directly to Louisville, then might go directly on a truck to your dealer. Your Palsapp will load with another Louisville location.

Wow! Thanks. That sounds great.

Don’t assume it’s all men here. I’m a wife and able to take care of the kids including a 7 mo old, work full time, keep up the house, dinner, etc while fully stalking this board and Ford. It’s all about multi-tasking. ? And just FYI- it’s not just the board. It’s also football, bourbon, etc for the men. My husband ordered a bronco and instead of waiting for his like I’m waiting for mine (even though I’m obsessed) he found one in Detriot. I think one of the first MY22 off the line that a customer rejected so he had it shipped here. I guess that’s one way to do it ??‍

It's well documented that women can multitask better than men. Beyond that, the aforementioned rascals who would take advantage sadly tend to be of the male persuasion.

I'm glad the car has broad appeal, I was just looking at this particular side effect of the obsession from a male-centric perspective. I'm happy to know the obsession reaches both sides though!

When will we see the rise of female Rascals then, looking to prey on unsuspecting husbands?

[RickMachE]

I'm not a guy !! My delivery date just slipped from 2/25 to 5/25 WTF
Get ready for dead LVB What is ford doing as far as scheduling for MY22. I hope that all the subsequent orders are delayed as well...

Wow, that's just MEAN! ?

 

[ponydsp]

Hopefully the weather will be much nicer when the cars roll out and LVB will be non-issue.

Wow, that's just MEAN! ?

Expected delivery updated! To May 30. Yep, apparent

I’m also 3316. Mine moved from 1/30 to 2/23 a few days ago but hasn’t changed since. What number in the batch are you?

Hence my wife is waiting for a taycan cross turismo and I’m stuck with the mach e whenever that may show up. To put salt to the wound, she ordered hers 3 months after the Mach e and she may get hers before mine…

Expected delivery updated! To May 30. Yep, apparent almost 3 month slip if web site correct and dealer incorrect. Not sure what to think.

Exchanged email with dealer. Despite palsapp still showing TBD and ford.com still showing in production since 1/5 with estimated delivery now 5/30, he insists that my vehicle is on a train en route from KC to California with expected delivery 2/7.

I'll believe it when I see it.

I'm 409 of 560 for 3316. Ordered 6/11. Premium AWD Ext battery in Star White. Had to change from Silver last year when they ran out of Silver paint.

BTW....when I put my VIN in Palsapp the origin is Kansas City with a pending status but is has a Freight Bill #

Have you searched your VIN on palsapp.com? Palsapps will acknowledge that it left KC ... Or not.

02/28/2022 original delivery date
05/29/2022 new delivery date…back to eating popped corn.

It looks like the consensus is that the three month slippage experienced by many of us is a mirage; to disappear by Monday morning according to one post. I hope they are right, and it's not just the Kool-aid talking.
