First in the Mid-Atlantic?

[ChasingCoral]

The Twins. My dealer’s first 2 Mach Es, both GB FEs. Mine’s in front

While Koons group had 27 reservations originally, Koons Silver Spring started out with just two. Here they are. The other is owned by a Dr. in DC.

Funny thing was after my test drive up route 29 yesterday afternoon, someone from the local EV association posted on Facebook pictures of a white Mach E from Lindsay Ford (Wheaton) that was test driving on the same stretch!

My friend who lives nearby sent me that picture from the FB group, and my initial thought was it must be yours! Until I zoomed in and saw that it was white, not grabber!

Wondering how your actual delivery date has been comparing with the last ETA shown by Ford. Mine is March 3 - 10 as of now. Seems like a few have been getting a bit earlier than expected, nice surprise. Like @methorian ? @ChasingCoral right on time, as expected for you?

@GregM & @drwhipps ?

@Duffy --> sorry to hear, that really sux. Hopefully dealer will surprise you with some good news.

Right on time for me as far as delivery goes.

My wife and I took the Premium AWD SR for a test drive last night. The FE they received yesterday is not mine unfortunately. It’s a Carbonized Gray FE. Mine should be in in the “Next Few Days?” I get a feeling that is the “Two Weeks” response from “The Money Pit”. As far as the test drive goes, we loved it. Have fun.

The FE they're showing on the Web site is supposedly Grabber Blue; maybe they've also ordered one for themselves, and the Carbonized Gray FE is also a customer-ordered car.

Trying to find silver linings.
- Mine will have the lowest miles of all the MMEs in Northern Virginia
- I'll likely not have to take it out driving in the snow this year
- The dealer will have perfected their Prep process
- You guys will find and fix all the issues and workarounds with public charging before I get mine

Is it believable? Are you buying it?

Picked up my Premium ER RWD Space White, Grey interior. Was at the dealership way too long, but I have it!

A few things - activating the Ford Pass and syncing with the car was not smooth but after awhile got it to work. Once mine was done and did my wife's phone, that went smoothly.

Blue tooth and Iphone CarPlay worked like a charm the first time - I have never used CarPlay, but found it odd that you cant do Blue Tooth and CarPlay at the same time - has to be one or the other...I don't think this is an issue, but found it interesting and unexpected - although I really had no expectations.

Setting up PaaK - have no clue how to do this. My Ford Pass app doesn't have a key icon or an button for set up - maybe I need to read though some other posts to figure it out.

Space White pictures don't do the real thing justice at all! It is certainly in the white color family, but leans warm white/grey - but I wouldn't call it grey. My wife is an interior designer and knows her colors, and says it is not in the grey family.

Now I just have to play with it!!

Congrats!! I really want to see a Space White in person. I’m having doubts on my Cyber Orange choice after seeing the leaning to yellow pics. Space White is on my list of alternative colors

I mean, I love it...but cyber orange is pretty cool as well...I am not a Grabber Blue/Orange person though...I mean, I guess I could pull it off?? But I do love the orange on the coupes!

I'm in Richmond, VA - so come visit if you need to see it.

Wasn't the first in the mid-atlantic, but definitely the first in my area. Arrived 3 days ahead of the estimate and only one day late from the original (pre Speedway) estimate. Saw the VV report tonight and it never updated after my car was dropped at the NS rail yard in MO...in fact Ford still shows it in transit.

I think trying to track it caused more stress then just waiting it out like I probably should have. Still thanks to all the awesome posts here I was able to educate my dealer on options and be prepared for some of the issues others have encountered.

Couldn't take her home yet since Ford Options still needed to be worked out, but I was just fine taking her out for a spin and chatting up all the excited sales associates for a few hours. Honestly it was the best time I've ever had at a car dealer!

Congrats! Lots of Grabber Blue in the mid-atlantic it seems!

Hey All. New here. Ordered a white Premium AWD 10-18-20. Confirmation dated 1-7-21. No further contact. Salesman at Garnet Ford has no information. What do you think? Maybe see it by Labor Day? Haha.

Got a similar time frame as you! Ordered a Space White Premium AWD on 10.16.20 and it was accepted by Ourisman Ford of Alexandria that same day. Haven't heard much since ordering though and still not scheduled for production :/

Just anxiously waiting and waiting!....

Hi Guys,

I was able to test drive my GB FE last night and am heading over to the dealership (Tedd Britt Fairfax) in a few minutes to finalize the paperwork and bring the new car home.

Obviously, the test drive went well. I didn't try out very many features, just the one-pedal driving and the heat!

The car had just arrived and had not been prepped at all.

I'm planning on driving a bit this weekend even if the weather doesn't cooperate.

Congrats!!! Happy to see more and more deliveries in the area.

Was there by any chance the dealer unit or any additional Mach-E's available for a test drive?
