Back during our build week of Aug 23, I see that my car was listed as priority 01. I believe that is as high as it goes and my car still is sitting waiting on a chip.

I wonder why every dealer isn't putting every order at the highest priority? I would.
Maybe not all of them can? Like lower volume dealers or dealers who don't sell a ton of mustangs? My buddy worked at a Chevy dealer and they were able to get a C8 allocation mainly because they sold a lot of vets. All types of weird shit like that in dealers. Add the first attempt at a can't meet demand, potential dealer ending emerging market and anything goes.

Just got my email that "your car has been built." Shows production date 8/24 and shipped date of 9/28. Est delivery of 10/25-10/31 into Colorado.

Grabber Blue GT with glass roof and copilot.
Good sign for us since your car was probably not on the assembly line and in a parking lot. Those of us in a parking lot waiting for a chip people have not seen much movement. It does seem like current build are getting priority over already built waiting on chips cars.

I got the same email this morning with the same ETA window. My Rapid Red GT with pano + 360 is getting shipped to an obscure dealer in WA for tax purposes. Things are getting exciting!

Which dealer are you working with? My build week is a week behind you and I'm working with Autonation Ford on Broadway in Littleton. They don't seem to have their act together to put it mildly.

Phil Long of Denver. In reality have had very little contact with them.

My initial reservation was with them and we were unable to convert it to an order. It sounds like you are having better luck working with them than I did. They are actually the closest dealer to us and we have bought 2 cars from them in the past.

Obscure as in Chehalis, Ellensburg, or another one? ;) Was a bit crazy seeing the differences in sales tax around the state.

“Just” as in you checked earlier today and no email or sometime since yesterday you got an email?

just wondering if they update all day long or only once per day for everyone.

The sales taxes in WA can vary by 2% or so which on a $60k car can make a big difference.
Yes, why I'll be driving a couple hours south next month to pick up mine, was wondering if you went north, south, or east from Seattle, ours might be on the same truck :)

I couldn't convert my online order . Called them and they said keep trying online. Finally they ended up ordering for me because I could never do it.
