If this has already been addressed on these boards, please excuse me.

It looks like there are 4 important dates: production, built, shipped, delivered. Does anyone have a guesstimate what the time might be between the 4?

My production date is December 14, for instance. Any guesses what the built date might be, then how long it would take to ship and then how long before it is received? I'm thinking it must be at least 1 month between start of production and delivered date. Thoughts?

Spoke with my dealer yesterday. I now have a build “day” for my FE of December 15th. VIN sequence is 0599x.

He said their demo Premium was being built that day (Oct. 30th).
Sounds about right.

Thanks for sharing. This works with our theory about production volume. If vehicles are assembled roughly in sequence order then macchiaz-o's car would be a Thursday or Friday build.

Their demo was assembled yesterday?

In speaking to my dealer , he says that it would usually take 5-6 weeks to deliver (to NorCal)... and given it’s a new production line that it could take longer. So, Even with an 11/24 build date, he is expecting it to arrive late Jan...

Hoping he’s wrong on this one.

It looks like the first two weeks of customer cars are mostly for California so the shipping process might be streamlined to your region.

No doubt there are a number of us California buyers hoping for a streamlined shipping process. ?

A Ford insider, @trutolife27 , has said Ford is trying really hard to make as many deliveries in 2020 as possible. Maybe it will come a lot quicker compared with a normal delivery if Ford is putting in this sort of extraordinary effort to get the MME in customers’ hands.

I was at the Mach E roadshow at Concord Ford Friday and was given that same rough timeline for delivery. I reserved and placed my order September 23rd, so definitely not expecting it anytime soon (I've only perused this thread, but don't think anyone who reserved after July even had received a build date yet).

Especially if you didNt have a reservation prior to your order.
