A few days ago Ford Chat told me that my truck was in transit via convoy to SW Idaho. This morning they told me it is in Portland awaiting shipment. Portland seems like a strange pitstop to get from Michigan to Southern Idaho. I mean, the quickest route to Portland is to drive THROUGH Idaho...
The sticker says RAIL. I live in Southern Idaho and the normal shippping route is rail to Salt Lake City, and then convoy 5 hours to Idaho.
I'm not sure if the Ford chat associate interpreted the data correctly. Maybe it was only showing convoy from the rail station in Salt Lake, however, if...
Ford Chat gave me some happy, shocking, and weird information. This is what they responded with when I asked them to provide me with an update on my second order:
I'm not sure why your order went from Built to Order Confirmed. I'm showing your vehicle is in transit with a secondary status of...
That doesn't seem likely to me, but who knows?
Mine has been on hold for 3 months and I'm starting to suspect they scrapped it and forgot to tell anyone. Maybe that's just me being pessimistic, but I have given up on my original order.
Thanks to everyone who chimed in.
I had the dealer put my name on the stock order and keep my retail order active. I will buy whichever one arrives first.
It seems like an easy decision on my end, but I think I am suffering from the sunk cost fallacy. I ordered on May 26, 2023 with the hopes of getting my truck as fast as possible. I took work off that day to visit three dealerships to work out a deal. I patiently waited over 10 months only to...
My ordered XLT has been sitting at MAP for three months and my patience is running thin. I called my dealer this morning and he told me a stock XLT Ranger is coming in next week that is nearly exactly like the one I ordered, with the only difference being it does not have an integrated box step...
This post may break me. I ordered my truck May 26th, and between the delays and lack of transparency I have been unhappy (to put it mildly). Add on the fact that my truck has been sitting in a lot since January literally rotting away and I'm ready to throw in the towel.
Ford, I hope you're...
My dealer ordered two trucks on January 23rd that have been shipped already. My truck blend date was that very day and it is still sitting in Michigan. When I learned this I couldn't help but face Michigan's general direction, stick up my middle finger, and yell... Well, I'm sure you can imagine...
Mine has been in production status since 1/23. It's been frustrating.
I am the guy who captured all the order data a few weeks ago and I've been using that data to try and figure out what specifically is holding some orders up.
About a week ago I grabbed 60 random orders produced on 1/22 and...
Mine has been since 1/23 and I'm starting to lose hope that it'll ever be officially "built". I'm suspicious that they screwed something up with the early builds.
We're starting to see people that ordered their Rangers in January... JANU-FRICKEN-ARY... get their trucks shipped before folks...
