This is what I got today



Total ********!!! Mine was built 10/27 and was released on 11/29 AND STILL WAITING SHIPMENT!!! My buddies was built 12/6 and was just shipped TO THE SAME DEALER AS MINE!!! Should have shipped both at the same time.

SOMETHING IS STILL WRONG WITH THE EARLY BUILDS....

What's wrong is Ford doesn't have FIFO process. It happens almost every specialty vehicle launch with them. Yes, maybe it was a software patch or seal or whatever, but I think that ***** been fixed for a while.

It's BS I agree but I really think are trucks are just sitting at the back of the lot.

Agreed that it sure looks like those of us with early builds have trucks with issues. The risks of buying first run appears to be real on these.

I appreciate that reminder.

Lol

Well I'm sharing in your pain, about 10 miles further from Dearborn than you. At least my $1200 delivery is getting its money worth!

On a related note, I paid $1100 to ship my Ferrari from Texas, so defiantly feeling ripped off with fords $1200 delivery fee.

Mines still hanging out with the rest of the older ladies on Ramp 59. Surprised she hasn't run off to get a ***** stamp yet after waiting there for two months.

I'm also waiting on my early build. Here's some heavy reading on the Ford 10 speed transmission. After reading all the spec, I believe the retrofit is indeed a software tune update that is necessary. It's a logistical issue due to after the repair Ford must inspect and sign off on each vehicle. Hope this helps everyone come to their own conclusion. I do believe Ford should step up and offer up a free extended warranty on transmission's that are re- tuned. As a gesture of good faith for those of us who have been disappointed by the retune and the additional wait and concern in regards to the retune.

In transit at ramp 58..... anyone else stuck at 58?

Built 10/31
Upfitted 11/9 (sent to Ramp 59.....)
Released (from Ramp 59) 12/5
In Transit 12/9

The "in transit" information says Norfolk Southern at Ramp 58, Melvindale, MI. No change since 12/9. Maybe just waiting for a ride from there to Kansas City.....

I've learned more about shipping autos in the last week than I ever wanted to know.

So mine was built 10 days before yours, released 7 days after yours, and hasn't shipped yet...

Makes perfect sense.

Whatever the logic/process--- may it happen soon!
