er is a mile away in East Brookfield and I have heard nothing.
Surely this week.... those held up at this point were on a hold status. At least in my case no such status. My dealer also told me they haven't had any previous issues getting trucks within the ETA window. Hopefully we will get that call anytime. Ill keep you posted if I hear anything.

There are a multitude of things going on, the highlights of which are supply issues down to the badging and logos on to rail and truck carrier work slowdowns and lack of personnel. They’re not going to enumerate in a stock email all the ways manufacturing is jacked up these days. They’re not going to apologize because they genuinely believe all of this can’t be foreseen and mitigated. They want you to accept that this is normal so they can unload any semblance of expectations based on the world before COVID, that idiot who jammed that ship in the canal, and the war in Ukraine/Russia generally going full unmedicated bipolar on the world/China getting ready to invade Taiwan.

Welcome to the darkest timeline. The world done lost its mind, generally and collectively.

@mep , @TheWheel @trev5150 @brooklyn_lightning @Simpso57

what did we do in a previous life to watch all these others get their trucks in a timely manner? :LOL:

I was never good at being patient - i'm sure we'd all take our trucks with whatever chip is missing, or without a ford badge, or whatever the hell is going on!

Glad the rest of you are enjoying the new trucks though.

Hopefully by christmas? 🎄🎅

Yeah, it's a bummer but I remind myself that we're all lucky to have gotten in on the first model year. A couple more weeks (I hope!).

You really want to pull that curtain back? 😂

My karma is more immediate than that.

FYI mines at the dealer. They didn’t even know. I found it in the back where after hour deliveries are put. They gave me a lunch appointment for tomorrow to actually buy and take it. Omg can’t wait.

looks like I was part of a bad batch - truck is sitting in the rail yard 30 min away, but estimated delivery just moved to 10-31. Bummer seeing trucks built a month after mine being delivered. 🎃

Having the same built date and a blend date one earlier then me, this does not bode well...

Just wanted to update and say I got it last Friday finally ending the torment of wondering WHEN. I can say without a doubt its the greatest truck I have ever owned, I am so over joyed by it. I am particularly impressed with the level of attention to detail Ford put into this truck. Its not without its software bugs but those can be updated later. All in all, the only place I want to be right now is in the truck driving around. I wish you all the same joy and a swift delivery of yours. Good luck all!
