Just checked the Ford site and now my delivery has been pushed back to 11/25 to 12/01. Rediculous. That'll make one year! FML

Im a few weeks shy of a year myself. I really wonder if there is some kind of system to why some people get their cars 7 months after order and some have to wait a year? The lack of uniformity is really what makes me so frustrated...

At this point it's just whenever Ford has a bunh to send to the east coast according to my dealer. I'm in VA and it has to go by rail. Just in limbo awaiting shipping.

I picked mine up this evening. Ordered early December last year. Delivered to Portland, OR.

Dealer experience was great - no surprises, nothing pushed (not even extended warranty), took my X-Plan, gave me rate protected Options from last December (2.49% + $2500 incentive) without even trying to get me to use their lenders. In all took 90 minutes. Not as quick as buying my wife's Tesla (they have the document signing really streamlined), but faster and easier than any past dealer experience. I was at least able to sit in the car while the finance guy typed everything up and get PAAK setup, phone pair/Android Auto, configure all settings, set the seat position/mirrors, etc. It wasn't a complete waste of time. As it's my second Mach E, I let the sales guy skip the orientation.

Good luck to all those still waiting. Hopefully yours ends its journey soon and goes to its new home.

After 11+ days sitting in the rail yard 30 minutes from the dealer, mine got a truck ride today. Arrived at the dealer late afternoon, too late for them to do the delivery prep. Should be ready for pickup Monday afternoon. Added delays every step of the way, but the wait is almost done.

Glad to hear you finally got your car. Just found out from my dealer that my car is at destination rail yard, about 30 minutes from the dealer. Updated delivery to the dealer is Dec 4!!! Surely I hope it doesn't take 4 weeks to find a truck for that 30-minute ride to the dealer!!

When I got my 9/13 "built" notice, the delivery ETA was 10/9-10/15. On 10/13 Ford.com, without explanation, changed the delivery ETA to 11/4-11/10. Today, 11/8, Ford.com changed the delivery ETA to 11/27-12/3. That would be 12 months after ordering. Chat has provided NO UPDATE since 9/27; it's apparently sitting at ramp 6R. Dealer is indifferent.

Same here. Looks like we’re the last holdouts. Hang in there!

I’m a Grabber Blue GT PE still on ramp 6R also. Since 9/27. Built 9/14. Went within one mile of my dealer in South Texas on the way to Richard’s-Gebauer Missouri.

My MME CR1 at Port Richmond just changed delivery date to 11/12 to 11/18. bummer. Less than 2 hours from my dealer at Morgan Hill. I'm told it has to do with securing truck drivers to make deliveries. Today I talked to a seasoned truck driver and he said vehicle transport is very risky (financially) for the driver and disagreements in compensations for delivery are causing a back log.

Got another update from the dealer yesterday. My MME is now scheduled to be delivered to the dealer 11/10 (changed from 12/4). Crossing my fingers that it will actually show up at the dealership tomorrow!

11/10 status: Grabber Blue GT PE still on ramp 6R since 9/27. Built 9/14. Went within one mile of the dealership in South Texas on the way to Richard’s-Gebauer Missouri from the Lecheria Mexico plant. Waiting on the 900 mile return trip back to Texas.
