There are quite a few order numbers higher than mine with order dates later than mine that now have build dates. I don't have one. Its a Red Extended Battery RWD. Is this normal??
Welcome to life as a Ford customer. Many have tried to find a pattern. Most likely the blindfolded guy throwing the darts missed the board.

I have a premium AWD ER that i ordered on 2.21. I see April orders with build dates. I don’t have a build date yet. I have yet to identify any rhyme or reason to the build dates!

Not a statistical analysis, but ER seems to be a common theme. Maybe Ford is having trouble getting the big batteries?

No change in our bottom-line price, but the color upgrade for Infinite Blue is not listed. I wonder if Ford killed the color option but kept the total price the same, hoping we wouldn’t notice and complain about a price increase on an accepted order? I really don’t want to think that Ford would do that to us…
They would hope you didn't notice the car was a different color than what you ordered?!?!?

Yeah, seems stupid, doesn’t it?

More accurately stated, maybe they’re hoping we don’t quickly notice the change in the order (not the actual vehicle) and complain.

I ordered 3/11 and am awaiting a build date. My price listed on my order also just went up $600. Surely they jest...

Edit: Got a $600 rebate. Unfortunately no one could tell me I'd get a rebate and no one knew why I was getting it...but I was taken care of.

My dealer just confirmed by e-mail that IB has been dropped. Thanks to these forums, I figured that was coming, but he neither apologized or offered information about what’s next. Sheesh. More to come…

UPDATE: Dealer checked and verified that my 4/8 order for IB will not be honored. Offered alternative color — chose the Rapid Red. Dealer says price should remain the same (we’ll see).

My premium did as well. I’m thinking it’s $600 for blue cruise, which is also now listed for my order.

I ordered mine in October 2020 and STILL don't have a production date from Ford! I got tired of the nonsense and purchased an Infinite Blue AWD with a std battery a week ago. I'm very happy with my decision and am enjoying my MME. I will NEVER order a car again! Good luck to you and I hope you hear something soon.

I have submitted the form for my order last week. Hoping to fill the empty garage before the end of the year!
