4/3/2023 Build Week Thread

[NeighSayer11]

My MME 23 Premium came in yesterday! Going to see the dealer tomorrow to talk about a price. Sounds like they are not going to give me the new MSRP but with it going down 4K I feel like they are gonna have to work with me to make this closer to the new price. Ordered 9/28/22 it’s been a long wait! Hope you all get an unexpected early arrival as well!

You should be able to get 2k back for customer cash, Edmunds lists it as an incentive.

Have them run your vin through a smart VINcent report.

Congrats! Keep us posted on price and dealer experience.

I'm kind of worried why my early September ordered PREM 4X estimate is "late" for a delivery to the Atlanta area.

Is yours still on the train? I tracked mine yesterday via NS and it said the rail car was in Kentucky after being in the Atlanta area for several days. Makes no sense to me, but I haven't been on Ford chat lately to see if maybe it was offloaded to a truck or not.

I've never spoken with them. I was hoping our cars were on the same train so I was being lazy and following your posts Plus, after it shipped, I had first week in May estimate.

My last updated date hasn't changed in a week. I kind of thought every time the date changed, it meant the car hit a "checkpoint" Maybe it's sitting at a lot waiting for a part to finish the build.

Here is what mine currently shows:
===============================
Estimated Delivery 05/20/2023 - 06/02/2023
Last Updated 05/05/2023

Ha! Yeah mine hasn't updated since 5/6 so that's why I haven't been on chat lately asking for an update. Although interestingly, my estimated dates changed to be two days sooner as of yesterday. Maybe the car was offloaded in Atlanta and is on a truck somewhere. Who knows? This whole delivery process for this car is kinda like black magic voodoo to me!

Yes, you should only check with Chat if your order shows an update online. If it hasn't, you'll get the same information as you did the last time.

Still no movement on our car. Last update was 5/6 and Ford says it's at Ramp 02, Atlanta, GA and an estimated delivery window of May-13-2023 to May-19-2023.

So it's been sitting there for 10 days at least. Wish I could just drive down there and get it!

 

[illinirdhd]

I'm getting similarly impatient with mine - although I'm a week behind you! No movement since 5/7, and no one can even tell me where it is. Est delivery date hasn't changed, so I guess that's good news.

Does your sticker say “ramp 02” ? Mine said “ramp 07” and when I got status “ramp 07” that was the end of the rail for the car. It was only a couple days for the carrier truck to deliver it to the dealer. You’re very close!

 

[tigers]

Yeah, it says Ramp RH02 on the sticker. The car is technically in a place called Hapeville, GA so I wonder if that's what the "H" stands for. I hope it's soon! From where I live to that part of Atlanta is only ~150 miles away.

Yeah, I wish Ford was more transparent with the shipping updates but I can understand why they try and be vague. USPS/UPS/FedEx has spoiled me with their (usually) very detailed updates.

Mine says Ramp R. The west coast always has to be different. I also see that UP's Las Vegas stop only operates M-F 0700-1600. Another way I'm spoiled - 24/7 everything, apparently except trains.

It will be. Carrier truck should deliver it to your dealer very soon. Hopefully you’ll get it this week!

Wonder if that's Roper, UT? I found this on the UP site and they have an auto facility there but not sure why they'd swap it to a truck in UT rather than going all the way to you in LV.

I guess it could be. I agree with you though - seems like it would come all the way to Las Vegas by train. I also think the dealer isn't getting a very accurate map. Late last week, it was in Nebraska, according to their map. I think it's sitting in Las Vegas, waiting for a truck to take it to the dealership.
