01/10/22 Build Week Chat/Gang

I suspect a global parts shortage of wheels is why the GT PE has a 28+ week lead time

I have the same hovering "time machine Delorean" on my status page too.

My rendering has the mysterious two tone steering wheel that exists and doesn't exist at the same time

Since we are posting pictures

Based on others on this forum's experiences with shipment / receiving the actual car.... would we be silly to think the estimated delivery date we've received will actually stick?

Lol no. That is not a bet I'd put money on.

I've seen them arrive both late and early. I wouldn't not plan on anything till the dealer says they have it.

Still no update. I'm assuming there won't be anything for me (delivery date, modules, etc) until maybe Wednesday or Thursday.

Just for fun I punched in some fake info into turbo tax as if I had purchased the car last year.... wow. I think I'll need to adjust my W4's pretty heavily in order to not be giving the government a pretty huge interest free loan!

Update,

Well,
I was listed originally as 1-10-22, but now on Ford's Build page it now says 1-17-22 which was my original build date. The modules lookup has been populating since yesterday. Delivery date however is listed as 2-28-22.

Original order date was 10-12-22
Cyber Orange GT (non PE)
No pano, no Bluecruise.

Nice! Still nothing here yet.

I just looked. My estimated delivery date is 2/14/22

That "In Production" date changes once your estimated delivery gets assigned. So, you were essentially put into production on the week of the 10th, but that "update" only changes once the estimated delivery was given.

Essentially the process is that it goes to the body shop, then it gets trim done, and then it starts getting modules. If you got modules starting yesterday, you were in production before that for sure

Meanwhile, in the land of utter disappointment...

My wheels are showing on my order tracking page now...

not mine. (global parts supply issue. Even the supply of pixels is delayed)

Good to know those pixels are back in stock.

Hey everyone! I am a bit late to the party and just scrolled through the previous 25 pages. Lots of good information in there. I am trying to use the https://www.motorcraftservice.com website and downloaded the document... but it will not open on my computer (a Mac - seems to be for Android devices???). Any insight will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Side note: This window sticker is quite the chore to decipher.
