Please cancel line 686. Dealer called, someone cancelled their order, asked me if I wanted to consider it even though it's AWD (I had ordered RWD). Said yes, now counting down hours instead of months!

A week ago things were hopping with people getting build dates. I had high hopes this would be my week but it’s crickets.

What happened? Is this a holiday I forgot about?

I feel your pain. I waited from October 12th to last Wednesday to hear anything and I finally heard from my dealer (not Ford). When did you order?

Long after you, 1/21. Last week I saw other January orders getting April and May build dates.

When I checked my VIN on the tracker it said my order was placed 1-30-21????? I got a production week of 5-24-2021.

You're gonna see a lot more that you can't explain. People will get built ahead of you that ordered a month or more later. We don't really know the criteria for their scheduling.

I understand they use the blindfold and dartboard scheduling system.

Did anybody at all get a new build date today?

Maybe that's when you're dealer actually placed the order.
No, I watched him place it October 12th and we got a confirmation of that from Ford (that was the only thing I heard from Ford). I don’t know why they put 1-30-2021 on the VIN tracker but maybe it got goofed up somehow. I didn’t get a production week until May 24th so that further leads me to believe the date was goofed up.

Hello everyone,

I went ahead an ordered directly with the dealer last week. They gave me the reciept for the deposit (I also have an email stating that the deposit is refundable at my discretion, and that they'll honor x-plan and any incentives at the time with ADM). However, I didn't get any confirmation or receipt for the order itself.

Does that sound about right? How has the experience and workflow been for the other members?
