Ah! I see. Looks like CA orders are taking about 2-3 weeks. Thats comforting. Thank you for putting that together.

The most important element is seeing a four digit code to the right of TEAR TAG, that means programming is complete and the file is archived.

My module code list is quite long now. But nothing that says "tear". Is that literally what I should be looking for?

Thanks

It's at the top of the 'AsBuilt' page under the VIN. You can see it on @ullearn screenshot a few posts back as well.

Got it. Thanks. I was searching in the downloaded module file itself.

Just spoke to my dealer who confirmed that the price protection on my Pro is all in place. He said they could see it in the system, and the price protection and special offer were both applied to my order. They've been really good about it so far, but just getting another final confirmation as it gets closer is a huge relief.

I'm feverishly refreshing my order page every few hours waiting to see some pixels move and getting the 'Built' status and shipping ETA!

Who is the Ford Ambassador?

I know who I'm messaging tomorrow, lol.

Who is the Ford Ambassador?

It was a program Ford reached out about. They assign you a Ford Ambassador, I guess to guide you through the process of owning an EV? IDK if they do it for everyone, or if it was at random. Someone from there sent me a text me a month or so ago asking if I was all setup for charging at the house or if I had any questions said I could always reach out. I'm guessing it's a specially trained contact center group there handling EV requests/information campaigns, but kinda cool to see I suppose.

Tear tag field on mine finally populated as of this AM.

Reading some of the Price Protection threads (nightmares) curious if y'all have had communication with your dealers on their plans for you? Are you expecting to pay the full new MSRP upfront and then wait for the rebate?
