Received the email today that truck has shipped with a delivery date of 10/12-10/17. However, when I talked with the dealer last week he said it takes FOUR weeks to deliver! I’m hoping he is wrong. Regardless, pretty sweet to see the “shipped” checked!

A recent delivery took only 6 days to get to Cali, that was a surprisingly FAST transit, I'm not certain it's a repeatable measure, 3 weeks was the norm with much of the delay waiting for final mile transport from the rail yard to your dealership

I would say there is a communication issue. I know I have talked to my dealership over the last few weeks and I get the ship dates being moved over and over but they say that there truck is still in Detroit.

Actually got ahold of the dealership this afternoon and they claimed to not have any better access to information that I did. Probably a sales guy who didn't want to deal with it.

hey great timing looks like they marked it built yesterday. Here's to hoping the dealership doesn't do any markups or anything else goofy once it gets here.

I haven't gotten that detail, but ford tells me my truck was last seen an hour from where I live, so it has to be down to days now. And finally today I hot a delivery estimate of within the next 7 days.

My Ford update yesterday said 10/8 to 10/21. Of course I leave on vacation tomorrow!

Good news I hope. I phoned Ford Customer service this morning and they said that the date for delivery of the truck to the dealership is Oct 21. The date has moved a couple of times before, maybe this time it will stick. The truck still shows built.

I logged on to the ford order tracing this morning and I can not all I get is "We're sorry. We are unable to process this Order. Please enter a valid Ford Order/VIN." I can still access the window sticker so hopefully this means shipping?

What people have been seeing when it is going to switch to "shipped" is the tracker will go back to say "order confirmed" but then switch to"shipped" the next day. This happened to me last week.

Unfortunately VINView didn't show that as of yesterday. Shows a delivery date of Friday the 20th. My salesman will be in the office tomorrow and I will know more then. Thanks for the follow up!

I have a ford charger installed at my house now. The electrician just finished up. All I need is the truck
