oh, that's not a thought I had, about opting-in to OTA. Do we know if that's the case, that the owner needs to opt-in to OTA on delivery? because if so that would 100% explain why someone had to touch them and would be a completely reasonable explanation.
But if that was the case then why hold up on the shipping. Just send them to the dealer and add a step to the pre-delivery checklist to update the vehicle software.

This is the wrong answers thread, so I'll say that's exactly correct

They needed all those cool Mach Es for the victory parade when KC wins the Super Bowl. That requires they stay in KC for a few weeks, then they have to arrange delivery logistics all over again.

Um, sorry, but I am planning for that parade to be in Buffalo. That will be an excellent opportunity to compare the snow handling of the RWD vs. AWD Mach-Es.........

Then you need to figure out the logistics because KC has the cars!

Silly guy, The Packers are going to win the Super Bowl. Maybe that's why they need the extra time...to drive to Green Bay!

I'm going to make an amendment to my previous wrong answer. Turns out an "influencer" who got to review one of the press vehicles tried to put gasoline into it. So they have to add a sticker inside the charge port that says "NO GASOLINE! Premium Electricity ONLY."

Um, wrong Bay. Tampa Bay is where mach-e should be sent. Home of this year's super bowl AND Tampa Bay Buccaneers - this year's super bowl champions. FYI... Florida has the most members with orders behind CA and equal to TX and WA.

Football related reason: St. Louis Rams fans thought the Mustangs was the name of their new team and then stole the cars in anger?

We will have to agree to disagree. The Packers are looking pretty good with Aaron Rodgers as a probable MVP. ;)
