Truck is in Texas! In railyard less than 2 hours from my dealer. Finally feel like I can start getting excited now.

Local dealer had a black one on lot yesterday. First time I've seen one in the flesh. Only made me more excited to get mine.

Did the weekly due diligence for my Oct 29 build that had original ETA of Nov. 19, HAHA. Then no ETA forever and as of today we have a Feb.4 ETA. This just goes from the sublime to the ridiculous. I, like most of us, am getting frustrated at this whole thing. I know there is no real alternative but I cant help but be aggravated.

Frustration is right. My dealer tells me it's at a railyard 48 miles from them here in California. FP tells me it's at Ramp 59 in Dearborn. Nobody can give me an ETA.

As The World Turns....





Edit Update: Just called FP again, they said it is traveling through Kansas right now, ETA 1/19-1/21. Yay?

So I was out eating lunch today, visited the local Ford dealer and seen a Ruby Screw. Poked my head in to see the sales people, they let me test drive the truck and we did a deal. I went to my original dealer and got my deposit back. Pick up the new whip tomorrow. Stress levels relieved!

You are still missing the point. It was ready to ship on 12/17. That is the issue. Ship the damn thing and don't have a FILO process. Let me put it in more elementary terms for you...

You go to a restaurant and order your meal. They found they messed up your order before they deliver it. They remake your meal. Correct order/meal is made and sitting under the heat lamps. Meanwhile, someone else comes in and orders after your meal is done. They order the exact same meal. They get theirs delivered to the table to eat while you are still waiting for the server to pick up your meal under the heat lamp and deliver to your table. If you get upset for having to wait a lot longer, is that "petty"?

I get it, Ford is a big company. We should assume they do things operationally efficient. However, with customers knowing they are FILOing shipments, feedback/frustration should be expected.

For you to say those of us are "petty" to feel this way is stupid. We can feel how we want to feel if we believe we have been "wronged". Maybe with your 5,000+ posts you just like to stir the pot, post stupid comments, and occupy your day on your iPad.

I feel ur pain……..Mine was released awaiting shipment on 12/13, then another G2 that is going to my same dealer for another customer was released and awaiting shipment over a week later. Instead of the shipping company sending both vehicles that are going to the same dealer, they only sent his and left mine at their lot. It is still awaiting shipment no ETA.
Also, I talked to a guy I saw driving a black screw near my dealer and he said he ordered the end of Oct and received it in December. I ordered in July WTF!

Mine arrived at the rail yard in Phoenix (El Mirage) today per Ford Performance.

Dealer said it can up to a week to get it from the rail yard.
