Congrats on getting your build date! It’s all downhill now!?
It’s funny you were able to obtain your info from Ford Chat. My experience was the total opposite. I contacted Ford Chat yesterday morning (as I’ve done every Thursday!) and they told me it was clean/unscheduled/and is awaiting...
Am I holding my breath that it won’t get pushed a bit…not really! But in the bigger scheme of things, at least I (we!!) know we are at least moving through the pipeline!
I did the Ford Chat thing about 20 minutes before I got the Scheduled for Production notification. They said the same thing….” Not scheduled but has been entered into the ordering system”.
I really don’t understand how stock orders are taking priority over retail, but I think just knowing I have a confirmed vehicle is worth the travel to go get it! Hopefully they can get the color changed and it’ll be a done deal.
So I was doing a bit of research and found a dealership a few states away that has a Lariat with a scheduled build date of Feb 12. The color (Azure) isn’t what I want (Iconic Silver) but everything else is identical. They are checking to see if they can get the color changed. If so…then I may...
One positive to not being scheduled yet…I was able to update my order! I had ordered a Lariat with advanced tow, spray in bedliner, securicode keypad, and running boards. Since I’ve had so much time to mull it all over, I decided to add the FX4 package. Since it hasn’t been scheduled yet, the...
Someone more knowledgeable than me may know. I know they have allocations for the Raptors, but not sure on the other trim levels. I ordered a Lariat and it is a retail order but there are many dealerships with stock orders with VINs already. I reached out to my dealership about an hour ago and...
Quite possibly. I did find an identically equipped Lariat which is being built the week of 12 March at an out of state dealership. I’ve contacted them and may cancel my existing unknown build date Ranger for a sure thing!
Not sure on how many they’ve been allocated. I do know mine is a retail order and they ordered it as a priority 3, so I’d assume it would get built before any of their stock orders. They are a very large dealership, with several stores in multiple states, so I have no idea!
I ordered a Lariat a few months ago and according to Ford Chat, it’s “been entered into the ordering system” with no scheduled production date. I verified that my order is in fact Retail not Stock. While doing some online research, I’ve found quite a few dealers who have stock orders in...
